Even though Luo Lixi knew she shouldn't voice out her thoughts, she had lived in the future world in her past life. Her lips hesitated for a moment as she turned to Sun Xumei.
"Ma~" Luo Lixi called out.
"Hmm?" Sun Xumei glanced at the little Lixi.
"Am I not enough for you?" Her voice shook when she asked this.
The arm holding the little girl quivered a little. Sun Xumei looked down on the little face and felt sad as she asked, "Why do you say so?!"
"I am… not even 2. You are having… a baby again. I am not enough… I guess…" After saying all that, Luo Lixi glanced at her mother's eyes. This thought had never crossed her mind in her past life as she liked her little brother a lot.
But after going through all of that bitter experience, she couldn't help herself from asking this. On the other hand, looking at the face which turned pale instantly, Sun Xumei felt so sad that her heart hurt.
'Did I ignore her too much? Or why would a child say such serious things?!' Sun Xumei thought as she held Luo Lixi tightly. At that moment, she felt it was the worst decision to give her baby to the nanny to take care of most of the time.
Not to say, that nanny with whom Luo Lixi was very attached, was fired by Luo Baiyun and she could no longer see that woman!
"It's not that you aren't enough but your… father is too reckless. He messed around too much, and we had to buy another baby in the end…" Sun Xumei explained with a wry smile while the maid who was standing behind them blushed heavily.
"…" Luo Lixi was stupefied as her mind blanked out. She stared in the distance and thought, 'Father messed with you too much?! You are saying, Lixiang is an accident?'
Sun Xumei thought little Lixi didn't understand her meaning. After all, she was a little baby in their eyes. However, she tried to cheer her up and said excitedly, "Soon, you'll have a little brother or sister. You can play with them and won't feel bored anymore. Aren't you happy?!"
Luo Lixi shifted her sight to her mother's eager face and pondered, 'Should I expose the fact I know the future and tell her about it?!'
But in the end, Luo Lixi decided against it and gave a cute smile to her mother as she chirped in, "Yes, I am happy~"
...
After a while, Sun Xumei stopped giving her cute baby the saliva mixed smooches and went downstairs to eat breakfast. Then, she went to the baby room. But, Luo Lixi's temple throbbed whenever she had to see the disgustingly pink room.
Not even a side was spared. From wardrobe to her dresses, pink~ pink~ pink~
Not to say, her little bed was filled with all kinds of dolls. Some of them were rare kinds. Their makers would go bankrupt after some years and stop making them. But it wasn't her concern and was ignored by her.
Sun Xumei went towards the bed and sat down. The maid put Luo Lixi beside her and brought her favourite doll to her. Luo Lixi became quiet as the two pairs of eyes were staring at her as if telling her, 'Why don't you play?'
Luo Lixi turned around and couldn't decide where to look as the glaring pink was too much for her eyes which were used to the elegant and classic designs.
Luo Lixi frowned and turned to the maid. Then she pretended as if she was throwing a tantrum and threw the doll on the ground while crying out in displeasure, "I want to go out! Take me out!"
Sun Xumei saw Luo Lixi throwing the doll away which was her precious treasure once. She guessed the little girl was really in a bad mood. In the end, Luo Lixi was brought out of the villa and the maid followed her wherever she went.
After leaving that room, Luo Lixi heaved a sigh of relief. But the most frustrating matter was when she tried to walk faster, but her little legs could only walk that much. Not to say, the uneasy dress she was wearing.
After walking for half an hour, Luo Lixi suddenly stopped. She went numb as her mind screamed, 'So much free time! No phone, no internet, no office, no husband! What to do!'
Suddenly, She didn't know what to do and felt the time was running too slow. In the end, she remembered something and ran back towards the villa.
"Miss, be careful! The road is slippery. You can fall and get hurt!" The maid cried out in fear and hurriedly ran behind Luo Lixi who was running away like a little rabbit.
…
At 7 pm.
Luo Baiyun returned to the villa in his car. Both his and the assistant's mood was off. The assistant turned to the stoic faced man and whispered, "Boss, don't feel sad. Getting scoldings from father is normal. After all, from childhood, we are used to this…"
"Not the one where we get reprimanded in front of outsiders…" After saying Luo Baiyun sighed and rubbed his temple. Even though he knew he would be scolded for being late in the meeting, he did so.
Sometimes, even adults feel rebellious and do some work despite knowing they will regret it. But Luo Baiyun did because he wanted to. Before leaving he glanced at the assistant and said, "I want to see which matter can trigger father and get me fired from the company."
The assistant stiffened as he saw his reckless boss leaving with large steps. The man whispered with a helpless look, "Didn't he become cold to you because you didn't marry Wang Yue? Why are you trying to challenge his authority now?! You will only suffer!"
As soon as the assistant finished talking, the walking man stopped in his place. He turned around and glanced at the man who was still in the car.
"Don't let me hear that woman's name if you still want to work with me!" Luo Baiyun spoke with sharp edges as he glared at the man.
The assistant thought Luo Baiyun couldn't hear him and felt guilty when he heard his boss's words. He mouthed, 'Sorry, Boss. Forgive me, okay?!'
Luo Baiyun didn't reply and turned around to enter the villa. The assistant slapped his cheeks lightly and murmured, 'Hong Lan, ah Hong Lan. Don't bring disaster like a death seeker!'
After warning himself to stay within a safe boundary, the assistant drove away from the compound of the Luo Villa.
…
As soon as Luo Baiyun entered the building, he felt something was off. The butler hurriedly hushed up to him and apologized again and again, "Master, I am sorry! I couldn't stop Young Miss from entering your study!"
Luo Baiyun's mind stiffened as he asked while running to the study on the second floor, "Did she tear my important papers?!"
"No…" The butler replied as he remembered the quiet kid sitting in silence.
"Then... Why are you panicking?" Luo Baiyun asked in puzzlement and thought, 'Did she break the 19th-century flower vase?!'
"Ah? Didn't you say no one is allowed to enter your study while you are absent?!" The butler asked worriedly. Luo Baiyun stopped in his steps as he turned around to glance at the old man.
"Don't panic." After leaving these words, he went in front of the study room and pushed the door inside. Then, he saw two figures in there. One big and one small, seated on the sofas while reading something in silence.
But in the adults' eyes, they saw Luo Lixi's staring at the black words as merely her being curious of the thing. They wouldn't believe it if someone said that she was reading her father's book because she was too bored.
On the other hand, earlier, Sun Xumei came inside when Luo Lixi refused to leave. In the end, she also started to read a financial magazine.
Knock~ Knock~
Luo Baiyun made noises against the door to attract their attention. Sun Xumei lifted her head and smiled when she saw it was him, "You are back?"
"Hmm." Luo Baiyun nodded as he turned to Luo Lixi. In other times, his daughter would run and jump towards him as if a little bird returning to its best yet…
Luo Baiyun frowned when Luo Lixi blatantly ignored him. Not only that, she even turned her back to him when he disturbed her immersion in the book.
The butler sighed when he saw the young master didn't flare-up. In the past, Luo Baiyun used to turn into a fuming beast whenever someone would enter his study in the main mansion, especially Wang Yue.
Looking at his composed expression, the butler stepped back and left as he thought with a helpless smile, "I panicked needlessly. One is his wife, another is his daughter. There is no way he would turn angry at them like in the past…"
