Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 558 - 551: Concentrated Outbreak (Part 10)

At the Leng Mansion, due to Grandma’s sudden illness, Bai Yiran had to rush to the hospital immediately.

Leng Liewei, however, insisted that Bai Yiran should not take the children to the hospital, believing that it’s better for kids to avoid such places as much as possible.

For once, Bai Yiran agreed with Leng Liewei. She was indeed anxious and didn’t have the energy to take care of the two children.

But she was still uneasy about leaving the children there and wanted to call Sister Liu to come and take them back. However, Sister Liu’s phone kept going unanswered. Bai Yiran checked the time; Sister Liu should have been out grocery shopping at this time.

On the other side, Grandma’s hospitalization and need for emergency care were urgent, and Bai Yiran could no longer wait.

Thinking that the children would be staying at their grandfather’s house, Xiaoxi and Xiaolang should be fine.

Moreover, Leng Yichen would be back in a little while. At the moment, Leng Yichen was still on the plane and couldn’t be reached; he’d head straight to the Leng Family as soon as he landed.

Initially, Leng Liewei personally took care of Xiaoxi. There were childmaids in the house, but Leng Liewei didn’t trust them and insisted on taking care of her himself.

As for Xiaolang, since he had lived there for a while and was familiar with the house, Leng Liewei didn’t pay much attention to him, letting him play on his own.

But after all, Leng Liewei was getting on in years. If Xiaoxi was quietly asleep, it’d be fine. But at the moment, the child seemed particularly energetic, and over time, Leng Liewei’s energy and stamina could not keep up.

Luna, who had been eager to show her worth, took the opportunity to step forward and express her willingness to take care of Xiaoxi so that Leng Liewei could rest a bit.

Leng Liewei was doubtful of Luna’s abilities; after all, she was a woman who had never had children, how could she take care of a child?

Luna smiled, her attitude sincere, "Sister Wu has experience in taking care of children, she’ll help me. You really do seem exhausted, why don’t you go to your room and take a nap, I’ll come get you when Yichen comes back. There are so many people at home, and more than one or two know how to take care of a child. You can rest assured and get some sleep. Besides, how can I, as a woman, be worse at taking care of a child than a man like you?"

Hearing Luna say this, Leng Liewei no longer insisted. He was truly exhausted, and after repeatedly cautioning her, he finally felt reassured enough to go back to his room to rest. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

For a moment, only Luna and Xiaoxi were left in the room.

Luna quietly observed Xiaoxi, and indeed, the child was very beautiful, embodying the best traits of both Bai Yiran and Leng Yichen. Particularly those eyes, ethereal and beautiful, one wonders how many men will be bewitched by them when she grows up!

"Such a little vixen~" Somehow, Luna felt a tinge of jealousy towards Xiaoxi, lightly poking Xiaoxi’s cheek with her finger, "Come on, give a smile~"

Xiaoxi ignored her, so she continued to poke the child’s cheek until finally, it irritated Xiaoxi, who burst into loud wails.

Luna was startled; having just been entrusted with the child by Leng Liewei, she had already made her cry. If Leng Liewei found out, with his granddaughter-doting nature, what would happen?

In a hurry, Luna ran out of the room to find Sister Wu. Sister Wu, although calm, tried all known methods but still couldn’t stop Xiaoxi’s crying.

Now Sister Wu was also out of ideas and had to find others with childcare experience to come and help.

In the room, Luna anxiously paced back and forth with Xiaoxi in her arms, "Little master, please stop crying!"

If the crying continues and attracts Leng Liewei, it’s going to be trouble! It’s one thing if Leng Liewei thinks she’s incapable of taking care of a child, but if he suspects her of mistreating Xiaoxi, it would be impossible to explain...

Sister Wu finally found the only maid at the Leng Mansion with a maternity nurse certification. When she found her, she was in the kitchen making cake with Qi Hui. It took a while of persuading before Qi Hui allowed her to leave with Sister Wu.

However, when Sister Wu brought the person back, not only was Xiaoxi not crying, but she was also deeply asleep.

Sister Wu was somewhat incredulous, wondering how Luna managed to coax this little girl to sleep. Her eyes swept over the room and, to her astonishment, she noticed a bottle on the bedside table. As she approached, she saw the label on the bottle, it was sleeping pills!

"Xiao Na, did you give that to the child?"

"Mm~" Luna nodded, "No worries, you see she’s sleeping so well now!"

Hearing Luna’s words, a chill ran through Sister Wu from head to toe, "Xiao Na, are you crazy? How could you give a child sleeping pills!"
