Madam Li’s Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 257: Little Friends, Come Out and Play with Daddy

Haitian Amusement Park.

Chi Jingchen got off the roller coaster, his handsome little face still flushed with excitement, clearly not having enough and wanting to play again. However, he didn’t throw a tantrum like other children, clamoring to continue playing. Instead, he glanced at Li Beijue next to him and took the initiative, “Uncle Li, there’s a cafe over there. I’d like to treat you to a cup of water.”

Li Beijue, who had been annoyed by a couple behind him on the roller coaster to the point where his ears were about to explode, nodded at his chin at the suggestion, “Okay.”

Chi Jingchen, wearing his backpack, walked ahead, and as he did, he earnestly said, “Uncle Li, don’t fight with me over the bill later, okay? I’m serious about wanting to treat you to a cup of water.”

Thankfully, Chi Enen wasn’t there. If Baby Chi had seen or heard their notoriously stingy little Bae Chi volunteering to treat someone, her chin would have dropped in shock.

“Okay.”

Getting the response he wanted, Chi Jingchen turned his head back and walked on. As he did, his little brain whirled at breakneck speed, calculating how he could make his cup of water worth the while.

When they arrived at the place, he was quite magnanimous, pointing to the drinks menu on the bar counter and declaring boldly, “Uncle Li, order whatever you like. Don’t be polite with me.”

“An American Mocha,” Li Beijue said without any pretense of politeness. After all, he had just given Bae Chi over 2,000. He knew Bae Chi could afford it.

The waiter promptly said, “Okay.”

Chi Jingchen glanced at the drinks menu and decisively ordered the cheapest orange juice with sugar.

After ordering, he took a hundred yuan out of his little backpack and handed it over. The cashier smiled amiably when he saw such a little guy taking the initiative to pay, joking, “Little friend, are you out having fun with your father?”

Father…

Chi Jingchen’s little eyebrows furrowed, neither confirming nor denying, “Please add some sugar to my orange juice, thank you.”

“Okay, orange juice with sugar.”

The cashier gave him back more than ten yuan in change.

He took the money and seriously placed it into his bag, then turned his head to Li Beijue and said, “Uncle Li, let’s find a seat.”

With that, he deftly found a seat in a corner and sat down.

Li Beijue followed and sat across from him.

Soon, their drinks arrived. Chi Jingchen, thirsty from playing, bowed his head and took a big gulp. His rosy cheeks looked a bit cooler now.

Li Beijue leaned back against the sofa, lazily picking up his coffee and taking a sip.

Just one sip, and he wrinkled his eyebrows.

The cafe claimed the coffee was ground from beans, but it was actually all instant coffee. For someone used to high-end coffee like Li Beijue, the taste was truly subpar.

But…

He glanced at the little guy across from him, and for some reason, the bad-tasting coffee seemed more bearable. He smoothed out his eyebrows and took another sip before setting down the cup.

In Chi Jingchen’s eyes, spending dozens of yuan on a single cup of coffee was a luxury and a wasteful extravagance! So, it never crossed his mind that someone could find a cup of coffee, costing dozens of yuan, unpalatable!

He waited for Li Beijue to put down his cup and, as if making idle conversation, suddenly asked, “Uncle Li, with your good looks, you must have a lot of aunties chasing after you, right?”

Beauty just beauty, he annoyingly chose to use the discouraging term ‘aunty.’

Yet, being only 5 years old with clear, beautiful eyes, it was truly hard to pick a quarrel with him.

Li Beijue’s falcon-like eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, clearly aware of what he was about to ask next, and he calmly answered, “No..”
