Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

Lin Xiaoshuang put away her phone, clapped her hands, and looked smug.

"Hmph, this is going to drive that idiot crazy."

Xie Lingmo sat at the foot of the bed, looking at Lin Xiaoshuang, and all the pent-up emotions in her heart dissipated.

She stretched her arms, and her eyes lit up:

"I finally understand what it means to have simple, foul mouth—the ultimate enjoyment."

"I feel really good right now."

Lin Xiaoshuang patted her chest proudly:

"I know a lot more swear words than I do. Just ask me anytime you don't understand!"

"Gurgle—"

Just then, a sound suddenly rang out in the master bedroom, interrupting the women's conversation.

They stopped chatting and looked at each other.

Finally, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Ruyue.

She lowered her head, stuck out two fingers, and poked her lower abdomen:

"Baby's tummy is rumbling."

Bai Li rubbed his temples.

I was so focused on laning against the little black guy that I almost forgot the little bot was hungry.

He turned to look at Li Mengmeng, who was standing by the bed.

"Mengmeng, go downstairs to the kitchen and get something to eat."

Bai Li instructed:

"Just make something simple to fill your stomach."

Turning his head, he tapped on Jiang Ruyue's desk again:

"Do your homework first, I'll call you when dinner is ready."

Jiang Ruyue's face fell.

She tossed the pen she was holding onto the table, crossed her arms over her chest, and pouted.

"You guys have been playing all this time, how can I be in the mood to write?"

She glanced at the girls chatting animatedly on the bed, then looked at Bai Li.

Then, with a sense of righteous indignation, he declared:

"I'm not doing it anymore! Anyway, I'm a really good student, I can get high scores on any test."

Bai Li was amused by the situation.

He walked up to Jiang Ruyue, reached out, and gently brushed her little nose.

His tone, however, was full of unconditional pampering:

"Okay, okay, okay."

"Even if you hand in a blank exam paper and don't even get into a junior college, it doesn't matter, I'll take care of you."

Jiang Ruyue smiled happily, her eyes curving into crescent moons:

"Okay~"

Bai Li made arrangements accordingly:

"Play if you want. But remember to go to bed early after dinner."

He pointed outside the door:

"Your room is on the third floor, next to Mengmeng's. This will make it easier for your parents to check up on you at night and report via video."

Jiang Ruyue cheered and rushed over to Lin Xiaoshuang and Xie Lingmo, joining them in looking at their phones.

But some people are unhappy.

Li Mengmeng stood to the side, looking completely dejected.

Has Bai Li forgotten something?

Although she was caught cheating, Bai Li promised to give her a proper "make-up lesson" after the punishment was over!

Just now, Zhang Qian, Li Jiaxin, Lin Xiaoshuang, and Chen Tingting, four women, pestered Bai Li and made a fool of herself for two whole hours.

During this time, I was so engrossed in watching it that I felt restless and agitated all over.

Just when things finally looked like they were over, Xie Lingmo came back.

Then the little robot arrived.

And then I was sent to cook?

Li Mengmeng stared at Bai Li with her big, watery eyes.

But Bai Li had already turned around and was discussing the next steps in the filming of the web series with Lin Xiaoshuang and the others.

Completely oblivious to Li Mengmeng's mournful gaze.

Li Mengmeng bit her lower lip and took small steps to move to Bai Li's side.

She stretched out two fingers, pinched Bai Li's sleeve, and tugged at it twice.

The voice was soft and slightly aggrieved:

"Then Brother Bai Li..."

Bai Li turned around.

"You promised me you'd still be with me..."

Li Mengmeng's cheeks flushed red, and she was too embarrassed to say what she was going to say in front of so many people.

But the longing in those eyes was almost overflowing.

Bai Li was stunned for a moment.

Seeing the little girl's pitiful expression, which was almost dripping with tears, he finally realized what was going on.

He raised his hand and slapped the back of his head:

"Look at my memory, I've forgotten everything."

Li Mengmeng's eyes lit up, and she looked at him expectantly.

Then, Bai Li spread his hands apologetically:

"Mengmeng... let's skip it today."

"As you can see, there are too many people tonight, and the house is a mess."

Bai Li gently ruffled her hair:

"You'll need to take good care of Ruyue too, otherwise Uncle Jiang will be angry."

"Go ahead and cook. I'll make it up to you even more next time."

These few words completely dashed Li Mengmeng's expectations.

Her delicate, youthful face instantly drooped.

next time?

When will it be next time?

A man's words are deceitful!

"Oh……"

Li Mengmeng was very unhappy.

She dragged her feet, turned, and left the master bedroom.

As Li Mengmeng walked down the stairs, her steps were so heavy that she felt as if she wanted to stomp through the floorboards.

Enter the kitchen on the first floor.

She opened the refrigerator and took out some vegetables and a bag of toast.

Li Mengmeng threw the vegetables into the sink and turned on the tap.

The rushing water washed over the vegetables, but it couldn't wash away the anger in her heart.

"Brother Bai Li, you big jerk!"

Li Mengmeng scrubbed the vegetable leaves vigorously while muttering to herself.

"I could accept having so many girlfriends, and I went through them all today, but I didn't get to take advantage of any of them!"

"I watched for two hours straight, my legs were about to give way. And all I got was nothing!"

"We can't say anything to him, because if we do, we'll just end up being the ones who get bullied."

The faint sounds of women's laughter drifted from the second floor, with Bai Li's voice blending in, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere.

The sound only added fuel to the fire when it reached Li Mengmeng's ears.

The air was thick with resentment; black smoke was practically billowing from the top of their heads.

"I'm so angry!"

Li Mengmeng turned off the tap and shook the water droplets off her hands.

"And you even made Mengmeng cook dinner!"

"I'll let you eat!"

Li Mengmeng turned around and looked at the bag of toast bread on the kitchen counter.

A cunning glint flashed in those big, watery eyes.

She tore open the packaging and took out a few slices of bread.

After thinking for a moment, she simply threw the bread slices onto the clean tiled floor of the kitchen.

Li Mengmeng took two steps back.

She kicked her pink slippers aside.

Her slender legs, clad in white stockings, were exposed, with pink cat paw patterns printed on the soles of her feet.

Li Mengmeng lifted her right foot and stepped directly onto the bread slice on the ground.

The soft bread was dented by her footsteps.

She not only stepped on it, but also deliberately ran over it.

The print of the cat's paw left a mark on the bread.

After stepping on one slice, she switched feet and stepped on the second slice of bread.

After stomping on it for a few minutes, Li Mengmeng finally vented a lot of her resentment.

She bent down and picked up the few slices of bread.

Carefully arrange them on the plate.

Looking at the "masterpiece" on the plate, Li Mengmeng's gloomy expression vanished.

Her big eyes curved into crescent moons, revealing a mischievous glint in them:

"You've been neglecting me."

"Get ready to eat cat paw bread, you stinky Bai Li brother!"
