Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Baby, be good!

Before Ji Rui could think any further, Ji Baby had already moved the two cats onto the bed, wrapped his arms around Ji Rui’s neck, clinging to him and uttered something shocking.

"Daddy, is Baby going to have a Mommy soon?"

Ji Rui was taken aback. Where did this little guy get such a strange idea, thinking that his late return home meant he was on a date, and even more certain that his date would be with that beautiful sister.

"Daddy was out drinking with clients."

Ji Rui made up a reason casually, picked up his son around the waist, trying to tuck him into the bed.

"Daddy is lying! The TV says all adult men have private dates. Daddy, you’re an adult man, right?"

Ji Baby tilted his head, looking at Ji Rui, as if ready for his counterargument.

Ji Rui frowned, "Baby, what kind of TV are you watching?" What kind of things is this little guy watching usually, how does his little brain come up with these ideas?

Ji Rui himself never watches TV. Firstly, he doesn’t have time, secondly, he’s not interested.

As for Ji Baby, he doesn’t really watch seriously either. Before, he would accompany Mr. Ji to watch, while Mr. Ji watched and he would play by himself on the side. However, the child’s memory is astonishing. Even if he does not watch attentively, he can remember many brilliant dialogues from the TV by just listening casually.

"If You Are The One..."

Ji Rui almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. Though he doesn’t watch TV, he knows this is a dating show for adults. How could this child be watching such chaotic marriage and romance programs? No wonder he is clamoring for a mommy all the time.

"Baby, don’t watch these TV shows in the future." No wonder phrases like wife and husband roll off his tongue so smoothly, turns out he’s been influenced by TV shows.

"Oh..."

Ji Baby was tucked into the bed, with only his head exposed, blinking his big eyes naughtily at Ji Rui.

"Then when will Daddy bring back the big sister?"

Ji Rui: ...

He was thoroughly convinced by Ji Baby, how could he be so fixated on someone he hasn’t even met? Could it be that even Baby was influenced by Le Tong?

Seeing Ji Rui not responding, Ji Baby reached out his warm little hand to touch Ji Rui’s face, "Daddy, do you want Baby to introduce someone to you?" His shiny eyes showing a sly smile.

Since Ji Baby met Sister Le Tong at the Luo Family Villa three days ago, he’s been fixated on her. If Daddy doesn’t have a girlfriend, he can accept someone like her.

Of course, if possible, Ji Baby would prefer Daddy actually bring his biological mommy back, but after so much fuss and noise, Daddy hasn’t shown any sign of compromise. Since he couldn’t get his biological mommy, maybe settling for the second best and having Daddy find a mommy he likes isn’t a bad idea.

Although, Le Tong didn’t give him her phone number at the time, Ji Baby believes if he wants, he could get the number from her.

The little schemes in Ji Baby’s mind were unbeknownst to Ji Rui, who just thought Baby was bragging. Besides, after the last mommy selection party, Ji Rui believed that when it comes to choosing women, his baby son is even more particular than he is.

"That’s Daddy’s business. No need for Baby to worry. Go to sleep!"

Ji Rui glared at Baby, lifted the blanket, and gave Baby a light swat on the butt. The tickling strength just made Baby giggle, causing him to purposely stick his butt up for Ji Rui to smack a couple more times.

Ji Rui cursed secretly, smelly kid, got itchy skin!

He added some strength and slapped the round little butt a few more times. Baby’s laughter became even clearer, his eyes sparkling like gemstones, causing Ji Rui to curl his lips, lean down to give two kisses on Baby’s grinning lips, then go into the bathroom to wash away the dust and scent from his body.

Even until the next day, as Ji Rui sat in his office, he couldn’t shake off Baby’s shocking words from the night before. His mind was still unsettled.

However, as for his baby son’s offer to introduce him to a girlfriend, he dismissed it as childish talk, never truly putting it to heart.

Meanwhile, his secretary Le Tong received a call from an unfamiliar number at noon.

Staring at the strange number on the screen, Le Tong hesitated a bit before answering, "Hello."

"Is it Sister?" That childish voice sounded like a heavenly melody, slipping into Le Tong’s ears unannounced.

How is it him? Young Master Ji, Ji Baby!

Le Tong was so startled she almost dropped the phone. Although she hadn’t talked much with Ji Baby, and it was the first time hearing his voice over the phone, strangely enough she could immediately discern his identity from his tone.

"Baby?"

Until now, Le Tong still didn’t know Ji Baby’s real name. Calling him Young Master Ji would reveal her association with the Ji Family and expose her identity. Therefore, she always called him what he called himself – Baby.

"Yes, it’s Baby!"

Ji Baby’s voice sounded a bit nasal, she couldn’t tell if it was because he was sick or in a bad mood.

Unbeknownst to her, Le Tong’s back was soaked in sweat. This little guy was able to find her, did he know she was his daddy’s secretary? And did his daddy find out about the party incident?

Could it be that the reason President Ji was so hostile towards her today was due to this?

"Baby, Sister is at work, not convenient to call."

Even though Le Tong had a good impression of Ji Baby, that wasn’t enough for her to risk being fired to communicate secretly with him.

Ji Baby acted like he didn’t hear her, starting to whimper softly, "Wah, wah... Sister... wah, wah... the kitten is in a bad way..."

On hearing Ji Baby cry, Le Tong began panicking, her earlier intent to quickly end the call dissipated instantly.

"Hey... Baby, don’t cry. Tell Sister, what’s wrong with the kitten?"

It was lunchtime, so even though Le Tong was on a personal call, it wasn’t an issue. But the key point was, on the other end of her private call was President Ji’s beloved son, Young Master Ji. Le Tong instinctively picked up the phone and quickly stepped into the tea room.

"Sister... wah, wah... the kitten kept vomiting..."

Le Tong had never raised a pet, was clueless about what the symptoms meant, the only suggestion she could think of was, "How about Baby take him to a vet?"

The youngest master of the Ji Family, whom everyone spoiled, wouldn’t have much difficulty taking a small pet to see a vet, right?

"Baby has no money..." Ji Baby said pitifully on the other end of the call.

Le Tong: ...

"Sister, can you accompany Baby to take the kitten to see a doctor?"

Le Tong: ...

"Wah, wah... Sister is a bad person, Daddy is a bad person too..." Seeing Le Tong not responding, Ji Baby’s cries suddenly became louder.

His cries upset Le Tong, and she hurriedly consoled him softly while holding the phone.

Ji Rui, who had just walked in behind her, happened to hear such a soft statement from Le Tong.

"Be good, Baby, I’ll go with you!"
