As the commotion settled, Fu bao was taken aback by the whisper in her ear, "I'll wait for you to grow up!"
Despite the childish voice, her heart fluttered, realizing she wasn't supposed to develop feelings. Her mission was solely to aid the LI family, not to get caught up in romance. If this little troublemaker tried anything in the future, she'd handle it diplomatically, of course.
Huo Zirui's flushed face exclaimed to Jiang Lixia, "Mom, my wife is so beautiful!"
The old lady Li seethed silently, feeling utterly overlooked.
That little rascal! Despite his innocence, they couldn't confront him, even if he took advantage of Fu bao. Li Xiaojun fought back tears, knowing he had never kissed his own sister due to the old lady Li's restrictions.
Now, his precious sister had been kissed by someone else's child!
Fu bao, just a newborn, could only manage a cry of protest.
The old lady Li rushed to comfort her, holding her close and rocking gently. Li Chengyuan joined her, trying to calm Fu bao down.
"Nannan, stop crying! When you cry, grandma's heart aches! Please stop crying...there, there, you're the best."
Grandma and Dad spared no effort to comfort her, and gradually, Fu bao's crying subsided.
"You made Fu bao cry!" Jiang Lixia scolded Huo Zirui, hitting his arm.
Huo Zirui looked confused, "But Fu bao is my wife. Can't I kiss her?"
The old lady Li wanted to scream: Shameless brat, who said she's your wife?!
"Young man! What are you saying? You can't mess around with your relatives! Go home and reflect on your actions!" Jiang Lixia was embarrassed, apologizing to the Li family and suggesting they leave.
"Fubao might need to rest soon. Huo family, come back for the full moon celebration," Mrs. Li said diplomatically, but Jiang Lixia understood the implication.
Yet, who allowed her son to take liberties with other girls?
"Sure, we'll come back for the celebration and bring gifts for Fu bao," Jiang Lixia replied.
Lin Yanfen politely declined, "You've already given red envelopes, no need for more gifts. Don't spend too much. We're already happy to have your company for the full moon celebration."
The old lady Li and Li Chengyuan exchanged glances, their mood decidedly soured. They were far from happy now.
