Ding Yuejia lay on Le Tian’s shoulder. One of his small eyes fluttered open and winked at his father behind him. He was the sugar-coated bomb that his father was launching. He would first make his grandparents on his mother’s side fall in love with him, and consequently, make them like his father too.
Snatching someone’s heart was someone Ding Yuejia was best at.
A small smile curved at the edge of Ding Junqi’s lips. The little bunny already brought the little fox into the bunny house. What happened next should come easy.
Le Tian carried Ding Yuejia back. When she reached the door, she softly called out to Ding Yuejia twice. The little guy was sleeping soundly and showing no signs of waking up. That was good.
For now, she had to go home first and prevent all forms of suspicion from her parents.
Le Tian knocked on the door with Ding Yuejia in her arms. Mrs. Le ran over to open the door. When she saw the little child in Le Tian’s arms, she exclaimed, “Whose baby is this?”
Le Tian made a silencing gesture, indicating to her mother that the child was asleep. She went to put the child down first.
Mrs. Le hurriedly walked in front of Le Tian and opened the door to Le Tian’s room. She watched as Le Tian put down Ding Yuejia. “Oh, dear. This is a very comely child.” A beautiful child was always easy to like.
“Comely?” Le Tian’s mouth twitched. “Is that how you describe a boy?” Le Tian retorted. After tucking Ding Yuejia in under a blanket, Le Tian pulled her mother out of the room.
Le Tian’s father was also waiting outside.
After Le Tian closed the door, she scratched her head and explained, “He’s my boss’s child. He’s the kind who keeps flying around and does big businesses. Didn’t I tell you before that I’m tutoring his child?”
It was not a lie. She had indeed tutored Ding Yuejia.
Le Tian’s mother remembered this. Therefore, she nodded and said, “It’s that little boy who doesn’t have a mother. Women nowadays don’t even care about their children after giving birth. What was the point of giving birth in the first place? A woman like that shouldn’t be a mother.”
Le Tian, “…”
It was a total accident!
“Who— Who told you that his mother abandoned him?” Le Tian was shocked.
“Didn’t you say that? No one knows who the child’s mother is. You even told me that his mother didn’t want him after he was born,” Mrs. Le said with a grave expression.
Le Tian, “…”
Could she withdraw those words?
“Alright, alright. It’s getting late, and we don’t have the tradition of staying up for the new year anyway. You two should go to bed,” Le Tian said as she urged her parents to rest. She still had to wait for Ding Yuejia to wake up before telling him that he could not call her mother.
“See, Old Le, girls nowadays… If your daughter dares to do this, I’ll break her legs.”
Le Tian, “…”
All of a sudden, her legs started to hurt.
How was she going to explain something that could not be explained?
When his parents returned to their room, Le Tian hurried back to the bedroom. The boy was still asleep, so Le Tian went to sit by the bed. “You nearly got your mother killed.”
Unfortunately, the boy was asleep and could not hear what she was saying.
Le Tian did not have the heart to wake Ding Yuejia up from his sleep either. Thinking that he would definitely look for his mother when he woke up the next day, Le Tian thought that she would inform him when the time came.
With this thought in mind, Le Tian decided to take a shower and sleep.
Hopefully, tomorrow would not be the end for her.
Le Tian lay down. Ding Yuejia automatically burrowed into his mother’s arms. His small hands gently hugged his mother’s body as he slept contentedly.
He needed a good rest. He would have to please his grandparents tomorrow.
The mother and son fell into a deep sleep, shouldering the possibility of various unknown events tomorrow.
