When she got home, Li An’an sat among a pile of clothes. Baobao put on a scarlet dress and walked around, dragging the garment behind her.
“Mommy, why did you buy so many dresses? Why didn’t you buy one for Baobao?” The child paraded the dress around unhappily.
Initially, Li An’an’s heart ached, but now she was numb to it. To put it bluntly, it was expensive to buy, but ultimately, and now that it was hers, they were nothing more than dresses. This was how it felt when one had too many of them.
“Mommy will buy them for you when you grow up. If you like, you may continue to wear it and drag it around. Anyway, it’s your daddy’s money so I don’t feel the heartache.
“Mommy is a squanderer!” Baobao rolled her eyes.
Li An’an winced and couldn’t be bothered with her. Right now, her mind was filled with Li Xiaoxiao’s words.
“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Junjun came over affectionately. Although he was wearing a mask, the exposed half of his face was beautiful.
“Mommy just has something on my mind.”
“Are you worried that Daddy will find out about us?” Junjun could not bear to see his mommy looking like this. She was reacting too slowly and he felt that perhaps they may have already been exposed. Only, Mommy did not know and thought that they were hiding it very well!
“Mommy’s a little worried indeed.”
Junjun hugged his mommy and consoled her. “Mommy, no matter what, we love you. Don’t be afraid!”
“Mommy loves all of you too.” Li An’an sighed at Junjun’s thoughtfulness. The three children were worth all the hardship that she had to go through.
At around 9pm, the doorbell rang. Li An’an went to open the door in her pajamas, displeased. “What are you doing here so late at night?”
Chu Yichen’s suit was unbuttoned and he looked relaxed. He was smiling and seemed to be in a good mood. “You’re talking to me in that tone after spending so much of my money!” Chu Yichen walked into the living room and saw the dresses scattered all over the floor.
Li An’an felt guilty for a moment. “The children made a mess!” she explained. After that, she picked up the dresses one by one. She had something on her mind earlier on and was tormented by Baobao to this extent.
Chu Yichen took her hand. “I’ve given you the card. You can spend it however you want! You can even buy them to throw away!”
Li An’an stopped picking up the dresses and turned back to look at Chu Yichen. “Buy to throw away, do you think I’m crazy?”
“You don’t have to help me save money. Wouldn’t you be terribly disadvantaged if some other woman were spending it for me instead?”
Li An’an nodded in agreement. “That makes sense!”
Chu Yichen’s card was with her. She could spend as much as she wished. She had seen too many women who tried to save money. Eventually, the money would be spent by some other women!
Suddenly she asked, “You spend a lot of money on women, don’t you?”
Although she had never seen him being close to other women whenever she was with him, she did clearly hear a woman’s voice the time when Baobao was sick and he was outside. Besides, he was so powerful and influential that countless women would hanker after him. It would be very difficult for him to control himself.
Chu Yichen said in a quiet voice, “No, you are the first.”
Li An’an shook her head. “I don’t believe it!”
Chu Yichen leaned in towards her, lowered his head and put his arms around her. “What do I need to do to convince you?”
His gaze was deep and penetrating. Li An’an hurriedly avoided his eyes. “I don’t need you to do anything. I don’t even want to know!”
Chu Yichen’s expression darkened. “What about you? Is there another man here?” Chu Yichen placed his hand on her heart.
“Let go, why should I tell you!” She did not want to discuss this with Chu Yichen at this point.
But Chu Yichen did not let go. “Yes or no!”
Li An’an wasn’t able to move, so she could only answer softly, “No. Alright, let go of me now.. I need to put the children to bed!”
