My CEO Husband Has Some Issues-Chapter 779 - : Mom, Don’t Be Sad
Chapter 779: Chapter 779: Mom, Don’t Be Sad
“To the city center,”
“Okay.”
It was only after she had gotten back into the car and left the bounds of the Rong Group building that Rong Yan could barely breathe again, the numbing pressure that had weighed on her chest had shifted slightly.
Just then, a small hand landed on hers, “Mom.”
Rong Yan looked down to meet a pair of big, dark, and wet eyes, just like those of a baby animal, extremely adorable.
Seeing that Rong Yan was looking at him, Li Duidui tightened his grip on her hand, “Mom, don’t be sad. You have me, and you have…”
...
He almost blurted out “big bad guy,” but felt that it wasn’t nice to say at this time, so he pursed his lips and changed it to, “you have daddy too.”
“Grandma likes Mom too, and Mr. Cui, the pretty aunt and Uncle Xibei, and Xixi… Mom is cared for by so many people, and in the future, there will be even more. Mom, don’t be scared. Even if there is no one else, you still have Duidui. Duidui will always stay by your side.”
His speech was still laced with a childlike tone, and she had no idea where he learned such touching words, but it eased the heaviness in Rong Yan’s heart. She bent down to pinch his small face, “Alright, will Duidui protect Mommy when he grows up?”
“I will.”
He would definitely protect his family’s Little Demon Rong!

Rong Yan couldn’t help but pinch his little face again. Oh, what a delightful feeling. Her eyes curved in amusement, teasing him, “But when Duidui grows up, he will take a wife, and once he has a wife, he will forget his mother. Surely, he won’t even remember me.”
Li Duidui, flustered, immediately denied, “I won’t! Mom, I won’t take a wife when I grow up.”
“Pfft.” With reluctance, Rong Yan gave his smooth little face one last pinch, “I’m just joking. If you turn out to be a bachelor, I’d be so upset. My son is so handsome. Of course, when you grow up you have to go out and charm everyone – that’s the least you can do to make up for the great genes I got for you!”
Her mention of charming everyone wasn’t meant as a hope that Little Baby would grow up to be a lady-killer simply because he was good-looking. She was referring to the idea of having an outgoing, upbeat, and positive character to show off his handsome face for everyone to appreciate, unlike his father with his own character issues, too reluctant to mingle with others. Media outlets that barely managed to snap his photo would have to purchase the rights just to prevent the photos from being published, leading to a scarcity of his pictures online.
Of course, it was not that there were no pictures at all; there were just very few.
Compared with others, Li Shengxiao was overly low-key.
“What’s a gene pool?” Although Li Duidui was clever, he was only five years old and didn’t understand the implication of Rong Yan’s words, “Mom.”
Rong Yan was momentarily embarrassed, “This… children don’t need to understand. You’ll know when you grow up.”
She couldn’t exactly explain to the little guy that a gene pool meant his daddy.
With the little guy’s strong curiosity, he would surely press her further, asking why Li Shengxiao was a gene pool, what kind of pool a gene pool was, and if it was as cool as it sounded.
She feared that she might end up with a metaphorical wedgie. And if the little guy remembered to ask Li Shengxiao why he was a gene “pair of underwear,” she would really be at a loss for words.
“Oh.” Fortunately, Little Baby was mindful of her mood and didn’t want to bother her. Even though he sensed that Rong Yan was brushing him off, he didn’t pursue it further. Behaving obediently, he snuggled close to Rong Yan and consciously started recounting the interesting things that had happened to him recently.
His voice was milky and chirpy, like a little sparrow chattering endlessly around Rong Yan, almost as if he didn’t want to give her a moment of pause. Rong Yan knew why he was unusually clingy today, and her gaze gradually softened, allowing him to wrap her up in conversation.
