Outside the shop, the three little guys agreed.
“Big Brother, Mommy is so pretty. That’s why I’m so pretty too, right?”
Li Baobao held her face in her hands, looking like she was full of anticipation. When she grew up, she’d surely be as beautiful as her mommy. What should she do? She’d be simply too beautiful! She wouldn’t be able to look away from the mirror every day.
Li Jùnjùn removed the mask on his face a little and said with pride, “Of course, that’s our mommy! The number one beauty in the universe!”
Li Junjun yanked the two of them back.
“Mommy’s coming out. Be careful not to be seen!”
“Yeah, we must not be seen.” Li Baobao was holding a huge sunflower doll to cover her face! Jùnjùn hurriedly put on his mask, while Junjun simply turned his face to the side.
Chu Yichen walked out of the store with Li An’an. Li An’an was about to say that she had to go home, when she suddenly thought she saw the backs of the three little ones. When she looked again, they were gone. She thought maybe she was seeing things or she missed the kids too much.
She had to go home and see the babies so that she could stop worrying.
“CEO Chu, thank you for the gown. I’ll have to go home now!”
Chu Yichen was walking in front. When he noticed that she had not caught up, and then heard her say that she was going home, the corners of his lips turned upwards as an unfathomable expression spread across his face.
Li Cheng almost dropped to his knees before Li An’an. CEO Chu had just bought her a dress. Shouldn’t she be holding the CEO’s hand gently and coquettishly asking to have a meal with him now? She actually wanted to go home.
Did she see how the CEO’s mood had instantly turned ugly.
“Oh, why don’t we have a meal together since it’s already noon. My treat. No…
better that you give me a treat!”
Li An’an spoke hesitantly under Li Cheng’s contorted expression.
Of course, Chu Yichen didn’t expect Li An’an to treat him to a meal. She couldn’t afford it with her meager salary! Moreover, half of the restaurants in the city were owned by the Chu Enterprise.
Li An’an was taken to a high-class western restaurant.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was excellent. Li An’an took the opportunity to call the three children while the dishes were being served.
“Are you children behaving yourselves while Mommy is not home?”
Li Baobao’s childish voice could be heard from the other end of the phone. “Baobao has been well-behaved!”
Li An’an was relieved. “Mommy will be back soon. I’ll bring you some sweets, okay?”
“Okay! Thank you, Mommy. Mommy, come back soon.”
Li An’an hung up the phone. This was how mothers were. They would worry about their babies no matter where they were.
Therefore eating with Chu Yichen was a real torture!
By the time she returned to her seat, the dishes were already served. The waiter was pouring wine for Chu Yichen. Chu Yichen took off his suit jacket and casually placed it on a chair nearby. His lazy and elegant posture made him look like a painting.
Li An’an sat down and started eating. She was focused on finishing her food so that she could go home.
She had just taken a bite when the steak was taken away. She looked up at Chu Yichen in confusion. “You like mine? No problem, let’s change.”
Li An’an did not understand. The two portions were the same!
And Chu Yichen had elegantly sliced her portion of the steak and put it back in front of her.
Li An’an wanted to laugh. That was rather gentlemanly.
Chu Yichen took a call. After finishing his steak and drinking a glass of wine, he put on his suit, buttoned it up and left the restaurant with Li An’an.
Nothing ambiguous happened, in contrary to what Li An’an had expected. She heaved a sigh of relief after coming down from the restaurant.
Chu Yichen had already gotten into the car. She heard that he was going to meet someone. He was indeed a busy man.
“I’ve already informed the manager of the store. In the future, bill whatever clothes you fancy to my account! No one will make things difficult for you.”
Li An’an did not understand. It wasn’t like she was going to buy any more clothes.. Why did he have to instruct the manager in this way, and make it seem like the two of them were having an affair?
