After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage
Chapter 330 Chengcheng: Second Uncle, can you make them all disappear?

Chapter 330: Chapter 330 Chengcheng: Second Uncle, can you make them all disappear?

The wooden table was piled with bits of black stone shards, the stone had been cracked open slightly, revealing a bright green inside—it was... top-grade ice jade!

The world seemed to suddenly fall silent, even the sound of the wind seemed frozen in place.

What was happening?!!

An unremarkable stone, yet it could produce ice jade with such vibrant green?!

The odds of uncovering jade from stone gambling could be considered almost certain, but the quality of jade greatly varies!

From worthless slivers to streaked white greens, golden threads, watery jade—and among them, ice jade stands out the most, polished and carved into the most stunning gems, rare to see on the market!!

Chen Bao was also stunned.

He and Mommy had casually picked a stone, and they’d uncovered such a valuable ice jade...

After a moment, the owner had perfectly split the entire block of ice jade raw stone, emitting a subtle sheen under the sunlight, dazzling and bright.

"In all my years in this trade, this is the first time I’ve seen someone so lucky, casually picking a stone and it turns out to be an incredibly rare jade raw source—congratulations! I’ll pack it up for you right away!!"

The shopkeeper’s tone was exaggerated, carefully placing the jade into a red gift box.

Even the shopkeeper’s reaction was nothing—Ning Yichu herself hadn’t expected this. The moment felt like a dream, making her feel light and weightless.

Could it really be Li Lingyang following her again?

"Boss, to be fair, your supply chain is quite good. But I remember when I first walked in, this wasn’t supposed to be a stone-gambling shop..."

The shopkeeper pretended to sigh helplessly.

"Honestly, it’s no laughing matter—the overhead costs for rent in the materials market here are insanely high. For people like us, just scraping by is challenging. This spot is actually shared between two businesses, taking turns running the place!"

Alright, Ning Yichu figured there wasn’t much else to ask.

If Li Lingyang wanted to hide, then let him keep hiding!

Let’s see how long he can keep ducking and dodging.

The jade was soon packed up, the gift bag was exquisitely crafted and brimming with Hua Country elements.

Ning Yichu took the ice jade and returned to the hospital.

Meanwhile, in the Imperial City.

After school at Saint Peter Kindergarten, Doudou and Chengcheng were picked up by Li Jingtian’s people.

Ever since Li Jingtian learned that Chengcheng was his biological child, his attitude toward him had undergone a subtle change, with a strange desire to grow closer, to take longer glances at him.

Li Jingtian used to scoff at the importance of blood relations.

But when it happened to him, he began to truly understand...

Especially now that Li Lingyang had left the Imperial City, making things much easier to handle.

He let his assistant watch over Doudou while he stayed alone with Chengcheng.

"Uncle, how come you’ve been visiting me every day recently?" Chengcheng asked while eating the candied haws Li Jingtian had bought, tilting his small face upward with a probing expression.

Li Jingtian’s large hand froze lightly against his forehead, his eyes slightly curved. "Don’t want me visiting you?"

"Not at all, Uncle! I’m very happy you come to see me!"

Chengcheng sweetly replied.

Right now, in the Li Family, he was isolated and without allies, with hardly any support.

Besides, Li Jingtian was quite powerful—he needed to add every ally he could get!

Calculation flickered in Chengcheng’s eyes as he deliberately sighed, "It’s just... sigh, I miss Mommy so much. Uncle, now that Daddy isn’t around, do you think you could sneak me out to see her?"

Li Jingtian noted his intentions clearly.

"Your Daddy might have left, but he left his other forces behind domestically, keeping a tight watch over the Li Family and the company’s affairs. Meeting your Mommy isn’t the right timing just yet."

"Then when will it be the right time?" Chengcheng’s eyes were tinged with a sense of loss.

Li Jingtian dodged the question, "When the time is right, I’ll take you there."

"If it weren’t for Ning Yichu and her daughter, or that annoying Chen Bao, Mommy wouldn’t be in this predicament..." Daddy wouldn’t have left us either.

Chengcheng’s mouth twisted downward, losing interest in the candied haws.

"If only they could disappear forever, and never come back to the Imperial City!!"

If that happened, Daddy would finally recall Mommy’s goodness, and their days would return to how they were before, with him always by their side.

Hearing this, Li Jingtian froze briefly, the sharp waves rippling in his hawk-like eyes, his lips curving into a devious smirk.

If Chen Bao and Ningning really disappeared, Li Lingyang would undoubtedly be devastated.

And there’d be no one left competing with Chengcheng for the inheritor’s seat...

Li Jingtian looked down at the little figure in front of him. "Perhaps, your wish might come true."

...

Doudou was taken by the assistant, riding the carousel while munching cotton candy, bored enough to nearly start nodding off.

Hmm, recently Uncle seemed off—always picking them up after school...

And always keeping Chengcheng to himself, discussing things she couldn’t quite understand?

Time felt drawn out endlessly...

Finally, by six o’clock, Li Jingtian had sent them back to the old mansion.

"Why are you two arriving home so late these days?" Old Madam Li glanced at the time, frowning, with deeper wrinkles etching her forehead.

It was a whole hour later compared to usual...

Doudou was about to gesture in sign language.

But she didn’t expect Chengcheng to leap ahead and respond—

"Great-grandmother, the teacher has been giving us a lot of homework lately, so Doudou and I stayed late after school to finish it, that’s why we’re running behind."

The adults in the house didn’t like Uncle, so it was better not to reveal their meetings!

Doudou’s bright, rosy lips opened wide in shock—her brother had actually lied to Great-grandmother.

Old Madam Li glanced questioningly at the driver who had picked them up, verifying the truth of the statement?

The driver hesitated, not wanting to offend Chengcheng, stammering out, "Little young master and little miss did stay a bit longer at the kindergarten."

Did Saint Peter Kindergarten usually assign so much homework?

Old Madam Li was deeply puzzled.

Sigh, such a pity Chen Bao and Ningning weren’t here. If they were, their cleverness would allow them to finish homework quickly and come home to keep her company.

Now, even Li Lingyang wasn’t around, leaving her an old widow feeling terribly lonely.

What a shame—Chu Chu wasn’t even answering her calls anymore.

She also didn’t want to meddle in their romantic affairs.

That night.

Doudou lay on her pink little bed, habitually reaching for the tablet.

Because of the difference in time zones, she could rarely synchronize with Chen Bao and Ningning, so she could only use messages to communicate.

"Sister Ningning, how is your health?"

"Today Chengcheng lied to Great-grandmother, but I don’t know if I should tell her—because the person he went to meet was Uncle. The family doesn’t like Uncle, and I’m afraid Great-grandmother will be angry if she finds out."

Hugging the tablet, Doudou then looked over their past photos from the sports day and the sketching trip. Her heart brimmed with nostalgia.

Hmm, she really missed Brother Chen Bao and Sister Ningning.

Lying there, her eyelids seemed to become glued shut, drowsy until she drifted off into sleep...

Reykjavik.

The first hues of morning sunlight peeked mischievously through the hospital’s blue curtains, softly spilling inside.

After days of treatment, Ningning’s condition had improved, her energy levels noticeably recovering. Upon waking, her first thought was to check the messages on her tablet.
