Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 36: Business Trip (2)

The two of them finished their dinner and then took a stroll around the supermarket. By the time they got home, it was already past eight in the evening.

After giving the little guy a bath, she carried him to the bed and sat down.

"Jingxi, mommy might be going away for a few days." Ye Xinluo took a while before speaking.

"Mommy, where are you going? Jingxi wants to go too." Jingxi looked at Ye Xinluo, not quite understanding what she meant.

"This time, mommy can't take Jingxi along. How about having Shanshan godmother come and stay with Jingxi?"

If it's absolutely necessary to go. Then she would have to trouble Shanshan to take care of the little guy.

Jingxi just stared blankly at Ye Xinluo, momentarily forgetting to react.

Mommy said she's going away for a few days... And she can't take Jingxi with her?

Where is mommy going? And why can't she take him along?

"Mommy, where are you going?"

After a while, Jingxi finally reacted.

"Mommy has to go on a work trip tomorrow." Ye Xinluo looked at the little one, afraid he might cause a fuss if he disagreed.

"A work trip?"

What's a work trip? Can you eat it?

If Ye Xinluo knew what the little one was grumbling about in his heart at that moment, she'd be speechless.

"Yes, mommy's boss told mommy that I have to go on a work trip with him."

"Oh, I see."

Jingxi nodded, somewhat understanding what "work trip" meant.

It's not something you eat; it should be something related to work.

"So how long is mommy going for?"

"I'm not sure yet, probably three or four days at the earliest." Ye Xinluo observed the little one's reaction as she spoke.

"Okay then, mommy can go. Just ask Shanshan godmother to keep me company."

...

"Huh?" She looked at the little guy in surprise. She didn't expect Jingxi to be so agreeable today.

She thought there would be a fuss for a while. But now, there was no reaction at all.

She stared at the little boy's face for a while but couldn't see anything wrong.

No, something must be off.

Usually, wherever I go, the little one wants to follow, clingy all the time. Why this time...

"Jingxi, do you really want mommy to go on a work trip?"

She always felt that the little one seemed eager for her to go on a work trip.

"No, mommy is working now, isn't going on trips a normal thing?"

Jingxi blinked innocently.

For a moment, she was at a loss for words.

Ye Xinluo studied Jingxi for a while. Suddenly, she pinched his face, then lifted up his shirt.

"Mommy, what are you doing?"

The little guy grabbed the hem of his shirt, his whole face turning red.

Even though he's only three years old now, he understands the difference between boys and girls. Seeing him like this, with his shirt lifted, is embarrassing.

Even if the person in front of him is his dear mommy.

"Tell me, where did you hide my Jingxi?" Jingxi was acting too strange today, making Ye Xinluo suspicious.

"Mommy, I'm Jingxi." The little guy was about to cry.

"You're usually so clingy, so how come as soon as I say I have to go on a work trip, you just agree?

Or are you up to some mischief?" She grabbed the little guy's ear and asked.

Who is Ye Xinluo? She's Jingxi's mommy. Doesn't she know her son's personality?

Normally, wherever I go, he follows. Now he's so quick to agree to let me go on a work trip.

It's like the sun is rising from the west. If you say this little guy isn't up to something, I'd never believe it.

Who knows what the little guy is plotting in his heart right now.

"Mommy, it hurts. Can you let go first?" The little guy looked at Ye Xinluo pitifully.

His gaze softened her heart. So she let go of her hand.

"Mommy, why are you so fierce? Jingxi doesn't want mommy to go." Then he turned his mouth to the side, ignoring her.

"Jingxi, be good. Mommy was wrong." Ye Xinluo quickly comforted him.

"Humph."

Ye Xinluo: .....

How does one deal with a tsundere son? Asking for advice online...

"Jingxi, be good. Mommy didn't mean to." She looked at the little guy with a pitiful expression.

"Alright, I forgive mommy." The little guy couldn't resist. He had no choice, his dear mommy is just too silly.

In his heart, he felt helpless towards Ye Xinluo. But he didn't say anything on the surface.

In fact, Ye Xinluo going on this work trip was expected by Jingxi. But it was also unexpected.

When Ye Xinluo first started working, the little guy knew that she'd probably have to go on business trips often. However, the unexpected part was how soon this day came.

Thinking about not seeing his dear mommy for a few days made him a bit sad. But then he thought, what if he didn't let mommy go and she got fired because of it?

If mommy was fired, she wouldn't be able to support Jingxi. Without support, would that mean no more cake?

Ow...

No...

My cake, you can't go...

So, after a fierce mental struggle, the little guy decided to let mommy go on a work trip.

Having Shanshan godmother to keep him company wasn't bad. There would be cake. Mommy wouldn't lose her job...

[Everyone]: "Darling, you're so sneaky with your mommy. Does she know?"

[Little beast]: "Humph (tsundere face)"

...

After explaining things to the little guy, the rest was easy. First, she called Lan Shan, asking her to help take care of the little one for a few days.

Lan Shan agreed without a second thought. The two chatted idly for a while before hanging up. Then she turned to look at the little guy.

Jingxi was sitting on the bed, flipping through a magazine idly.

This magazine was something Lan Shan was reading a couple of days ago. The little guy, being bored, just leafed through it.

Ye Xinluo didn't mind and pulled out a suitcase, placing it on the bed and taking clothes out of the wardrobe.

"Mommy, this big brother is so handsome."

Jingxi, looking through the magazine, suddenly became excited and crawled in front of Ye Xinluo, handing her the magazine to see.

Ye Xinluo looked up. What she saw was a man's photo. She usually had no interest in entertainment news, so she didn't know who he was.

"Mommy, isn't this person handsome?"

"Yes, he's quite handsome." It was undeniable that the man in the photo was very handsome.

He had distinct facial features, a high nose bridge, deep-set eyes, and thin lips.

Almost flawless.

"It would be great if Jingxi's daddy is this handsome."

Ye Xinluo paused in her clothes packing, not expecting the little one to bring this up suddenly.

When Jingxi was little, he often asked where his daddy was. Ye Xinluo couldn't answer, so she told him "Daddy is in a faraway place."

Back then, the little one was small and didn't understand, so he believed her.

Later, the little guy occasionally asked, "When will daddy be back?"

"Does daddy not want Jingxi?" These kinds of questions left Ye Xinluo at a loss for words, not knowing how to answer, so she just didn't.

At first, the little guy would fuss, cry for daddy. Gradually, as time passed, he stopped asking.

But she never expected that now he'd bring it up again suddenly.
