Chapter 738: Chapter 738: Is He Too Harsh?

Throughout the journey, neither the adult nor the child spoke a word, and the driver in front didn’t dare to say anything either, silently enduring the oppressive silence as he drove back to Zijing Garden.

Once home.

Huo Yi, who had been waiting at the mansion for half the day, immediately came forward, “Little Young Master, you’re finally back. Master Jue and I were so worried about you.”

Chi Jingchen’s bottom still hurt, and he walked with a slight limp. Upon hearing that Li Beijue was also worried about him, a flicker of discomfort crossed his face, but the pride of a man wouldn’t allow him to be the first to speak; he silently turned his face away.

Li Beijue, looking exhausted, rubbed the bridge of his nose and commanded Huo Yi, “Take him back to his room and apply some medication.”

“Little Young Master is injured?” Huo Yi exclaimed in shock and quickly crouched down to check on Little Radish. After confirming that the noble little boy had no obvious injuries, he breathed a sigh of relief. Standing back up, he took his hand, “Let’s go, young master.”

Chi Jingchen didn’t want anyone to know where he was hurt and awkwardly followed Huo Yi back to his room.

The living room suddenly fell silent.

Li Beijue returned to the sofa and placed the mobile phone he had picked up from the back seat onto the table. His stomach, just starting to feel a bit better, began to hurt again.

He irritably picked up the urgent documents his secretary had delivered that morning. After reading a page, the image of Baby Chi taking a beating yet defiantly saying he was wrong flashed into his mind.

That stubborn look was exactly like Chi Enen’s!

Suddenly, he couldn’t bring himself to continue reading.

He felt a violent urge to crumple the documents and throw them into the trash can.

He threw the file back onto the table with a slap and was about to stand up to pour himself a coffee when his gaze landed on Baby Chi’s phone again.

His black eyes narrowed, a flicker of contemplation passing over his handsome face, as if possessed, he picked up the phone from the table.

He turned it on.

After the ringtone of Boonie Bears played during startup, a photo of a family of three appeared on the screen.

His eyes scanned over the shocked Little lady in the photo and settled on the smiling little guy, his finger hesitated! His proud stature resembled that of a medieval aristocrat sculpture, both noble and dignified. His eyebrows gradually furrowed.

At this time.

Huo Yi came out of Bae Chi’s bedroom and, seeing his expression, walked over with concern, “Master Jue, are you alright?”

Li Beijue, holding Baby Chi’s phone, asked with a chilling air, “Did I just make a mistake?”

He couldn’t possibly have a problem with his ears, could he?

The usually forceful and authoritative Master Jue was actually questioning himself?

It had to be a problem with his ears! Definitely so!

While he still doubted his hearing, Li Beijue had already turned his head to look at him, impatiently waiting for his answer.

Only then did Huo Yi realize he hadn’t hallucinated or dreamed; Master Jue was truly asking him! His heart skipped a beat as for the first time he sensed how much Master Jue cared about the little young master. He pondered how to express himself, then bowed his head and said, “Master Jue, it’s not wrong. Indeed, the Little Young Master shouldn’t ignore calls and run off to meet ‘strangers’. He’s so young, it’s too dangerous.”

“So you think I didn’t make a mistake?” Li Beijue squinted his eyes; deep down, he still felt he was right—Baby Chi indeed lacked discipline!

“Yes, I think Master Jue didn’t make a mistake,” he continued, changing his tone, “But, Master Jue should explain to the little young master why you were so angry at the time. Otherwise, he’s too young to figure it out on his own, and will only feel that you don’t love him.”
