Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 2109: Chapter 2118: Baby Chi’s Mind

Chi Enen replied without looking up as she slipped into her slippers, ”When did I ever sneak around?”

Baby Chi immediately glared at her, pursing his pink lips in displeasure, looking as unwilling as can be, ”So you really went to see The Neighbor Old Wang! And lied to me about going to pick up Aunt Qinnan, huh. If you were picking up Aunt Qinnan, how come you were gone for four or five hours without coming back? And left that little brat Nuonuo to me!”

He’s only nine years old.

A nine-year-old brat calling a two-year-old brat a brat—it just sounds so ludicrous.

Chi Enen’s mouth twitched, and she changed her shoes, standing up to say, ”I did pick her up, but afterward I went with your dad to buy clothes.”

Clothes! Even bought clothes!

Baby Chi’s whole body bristled, his pretty little face full of dissatisfaction, raising his voice, ”Chi Enen, you went to buy clothes?”

”...Yeah, I did.” Chi Enen was clueless, not knowing why he was suddenly so upset.

Baby Chi was indeed upset, extremely, extremely upset. His pretty little face almost immediately darkened, dark enough to nearly drip water, as he shuffled off toward the living room in big slippers that didn’t fit his feet, shooting Chi Enen a glare, his face sullen, turning away without saying a word.

He didn’t even say a word to her.

Chi Enen was baffled by this cold shoulder, following him into the living room, pouring herself a cup of water to drink, before asking, ”Baby Chi, what’s wrong?”

The person on the sofa had a face as black as the bottom of a pot, and upon hearing her, he turned his head away in silence.

Yet it was clear he was upset.

Seeing him like this, Chi Enen was caught between amusement and frustration.

She hadn’t seen Baby Chi like this for a while; he used to act like this when he was sulking.

She thought about what she might have done to upset him, and after contemplating, she tried to explain, ”It’s not what you think—the clothes were...”

”Did you really not buy clothes for The Neighbor Old Wang?” Her words were cut off halfway, by his childish voice tinged with dissatisfaction, interrupting her explanation coolly.

”...” Chi Enen was caught off guard, pausing for a moment.

It was like she’d stirred up a hornet’s nest.

The person on the sofa sprang up, angry enough to almost pass out, loudly accusing her, ”Chi Enen, you tell me, how long has it been since you bought me clothes!”

”You used to say even with The Neighbor Old Wang, you’d love me and Nuonuo the most, but what about now!”

It’s not like he didn’t have clothes to wear; his wardrobe was overflowing with clothes now. His family woman always made sure he received the latest designs whenever top brands launched new lines. Plus, his little Uncle, Maternal Grandmother, Grandpa... all the uncles and aunts he got along with, even Huo Yi, frequently bought him clothes. But upon hearing that Chi Enen privately went to buy clothes for The Neighbor Old Wang, he felt uncomfortable inside. Besides discomfort, there was a touch of unease he couldn’t quite express.

Earlier, when The Neighbor Old Wang lived with them every day, he never felt this way. He didn’t even when he knew The Neighbor Old Wang was going to marry his family woman. But with the wedding approaching, he didn’t know why he suddenly became anxious.

He couldn’t explain why he felt anxious and uneasy; possibly because this time, The Neighbor Old Wang and his family woman were really getting married, a commitment different from merely living together before, which brought on the anxiety.
