When his wicked ex-girlfriend beckoned him, CEO Li lost control!

The truth is, the young master not only didn't stop crying, but he screamed even louder.

Even Li Xiulan, who was standing next to her, couldn't stand it anymore and tried to persuade her.

"Mr. Li, if this child keeps crying like this, his health won't be able to take it, and it will also affect the neighbors. I heard that a family moved in next door a couple of days ago."

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone from next door came and knocked on the door. They saw Li Chengyuan holding the child, but instead of comforting him, they let him cry.

The woman outside called out through the iron fence.

"I said, your child is crying so hard, why aren't you doing anything about it? Are you abusing the baby?"

"No...no, how could we abuse a baby? This is the boss's precious darling."

Li Xiulan hurriedly explained.

Even Bai Qingruan felt a little embarrassed. Although she really disliked Lin Zhixia, the child's crying annoyed her.

The noise has been giving her a headache lately.

Sometimes when she lies in bed at night, she can still hear the sound of a baby crying in her head. She's only in her twenties; it's not good for her to have neurasthenia at such a young age.

Bai Qingruan finally had no choice but to give in: "Brother-in-law, why don't we take the baby inside first? I'm afraid if the young master keeps crying, people will really think we're abusing a baby, and it wouldn't be good if we called the police."

Li Chengyuan's lips were tightly pressed together, and he irritably raised his hand to rub his temples.

"Carry him inside."

Li Xiulan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly carried the young master inside.

Lin Zhixia was washing the baby bottle that the young master had used in the kitchen when she heard a heart-wrenching cry. Lin Zhixia quickly dried her hands on her apron and rushed over.

"What's going on? Didn't they all go to the yard?"

Li Xiulan shook her head helplessly: "Don't even mention it. As soon as we took her out, she was making a huge fuss. Little Li tried everything. Even the neighbors who moved in next door came over to see what was going on. They thought we were abusing the baby."

"Pfft, is it that exaggerated?"

Lin Zhixia took the young master from Li Xiulan's hands. Although the young master's crying gradually subsided, he was still sobbing intermittently.

Lin Zhixia understood what he was trying to say.

"My uncle... my uncle scolded me. He said he doesn't care about me anymore, sob sob sob... What a waste of his good looks. I'm never playing with him again."

Lin Zhixia laughed out loud; a child is just a child.

Li Chengyuan didn't act like a younger brother-in-law at all. This baby was only a few months old. Taking care of a child requires patience.

How could he so childishly say he wouldn't care about the young master anymore?

Lin Zhixia took a baby-specific tissue and gently wiped away his tears, then put a bottle in his mouth filled with freshly cooled boiled water.

"Alright, drink some water to moisten your throat. It must be so dry from shouting. Our young master has such a loud voice. When he grows up, he can go to a singing competition and specialize in singing high notes."

The little boy blinked his moist eyes, pouting his little mouth and sucking on the pacifier with bulging cheeks, instantly gaining immense satisfaction.

Lin Zhixia carried him into the yard, because the sun wasn't too strong at this time, and it was good for the child to get some sunshine.

Li Xiulan followed behind.

"No wonder this young master listens to you so much."

The two of them had just walked out when they bumped into Li Chengyuan and Bai Qingruan who were returning. Lin Zhixia noticed that Li Chengyuan's face didn't look as good as it did when they went out.

His face was gloomy, and his brows were so furrowed that they could have trapped a fly.

Their eyes met, and Li Chengyuan's lips tightened, his dark eyes quickly looking away.

Lin Zhixia had spent some time with Li Chengyuan and knew that his current expression was because he was embarrassed, since he had just been proven wrong.

Knowing that Li Chengyuan cared about his image, Lin Zhixia didn't expose him, but simply asked a question.

"Young Master has stopped crying and is planning to go to the yard to get some sun. Would Mr. Li like to come along?"

Li Chengyuan put his hands in his pockets and coldly refused.

"No need. After Xiaobao falls asleep, you can come with me somewhere."

Lin Zhixia was stunned. Could it be that they were going to a bar again?

She still vividly remembered what Zhou Zean and the others had said yesterday, and really didn't want to have any more contact with them.

Lin Zhixia, forcing herself to speak, asked, "Where are we going?"

"You'll find out when the time comes." Li Chengyuan said this and turned to go into the room.

Hearing their conversation, Bai Qingruan glared at Lin Zhixia and said, "Lin Zhixia, can't you have any shame? Don't forget, my brother-in-law and my sister are a couple. Can you please stop bothering him all the time?"

Lin Zhixia glanced coldly at Bai Qingruan. Everyone was working for the Li family, and no one was any better off than anyone else. Why should she give way to Bai Qingruan?

"Which eye of yours saw me pestering him? Didn't you see that he asked me to go with him?"

Did you think she wanted to go?

She desperately wants to keep her distance from Li Chengyuan right now.

Seeing that Lin Zhixia not only didn't know how to be submissive, but also dared to yell at her, Bai Qingruan immediately retorted in a sharp voice:

"Then won't you refuse?"

Lin Zhixia found it amusing: "You overestimate me. I'm just a nanny. How do you expect me to refuse? But since you just said that your sister is Mr. Li's fiancée, Mr. Li should give you some face, right?"

"Then could you go and tell Mr. Li now not to make me go with him, but to have Miss Bai go instead? I really don't want to go."

Lin Zhixia really didn't want to go. She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles whenever she was with Li Chengyuan, because you never knew when he would say something that hurt her deeply.

But to Bai Qingruan, these words were clearly a provocation.

She clenched her fingers tightly, glaring at Lin Zhixia through gritted teeth.

"Lin Zhixia, don't get too cocky! My sister and brother-in-law are getting engaged next month. You'd better go somewhere cool and stay there."

After saying that, Bai Qingruan turned and left triumphantly.

Lin Zhixia stood frozen in place, a bitter taste rising in her mouth.

Is Li Chengyuan getting engaged to Bai Muqing?

It'll be next month, so soon.

That's right, they were destined to be together in the original story.

If she hadn't unintentionally interfered, the two of them would probably be married by now.

Marriage is good, marriage is good. Li Chengyuan should be with Bai Muqing. They are childhood sweethearts and a perfect match.

Li Xiulan noticed that Lin Zhixia seemed somewhat absent-minded.

"Kobayashi, what's wrong? You look terrible."

Lin Zhixia snapped out of her daze and subconsciously touched her face.

"Do I look bad?"

"Yes, you must not have slept well last night."

Lin Zhixia's eyes were somewhat vacant before she nodded.

"Hmm, maybe so."

After calming the young master down, Lin Zhixia was about to go and rest when she opened the door and bumped into a fleshy wall, letting out a muffled groan as she hit her forehead.

"Lin Zhixia, did you completely ignore what I said to you this morning?"
