After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss
Chapter 16 Eating sweet things makes people happy
Coming out of the bedroom, the girl went all the way to the living room and finally stood in front of the refrigerator.
This time, she was fully armed, not only wrapped in a blanket, but also wearing a pair of thick gloves on her hands.
She opened the refrigerator door and carefully took out the cake, then freed one hand and closed the refrigerator door.
Carrying the cake all the way to the bedroom, Li Chen opened his eyes from pretending to sleep when he heard footsteps at the door, and asked in a weary voice, "What are you carrying?"
"cake."
"Didn't eat?"
"I originally put it in the refrigerator, intending to share it with you tomorrow, but I can't wait any longer." The girl said, sitting down beside him and carefully placing the cake on the carpet.
"They say that when you're in a bad mood, eating something sweet will make you feel better. I haven't tried it, so I don't know if it's true."
When the girl said this, she met Li Chen's eyes. There was a little starlight in her black pupils and her eyes were as calm as water, which was the most soothing in such a quiet night.
Li Chen looked a little dazed, and finally came back to his senses after a moment.
He thought that when she said she couldn't wait, she meant she was eager to taste the cake.
But unexpectedly, it was just because eating sweet things can make people happy, so, did she just want him to be happy?
While Li Chen was thinking about these things, the girl had already unwrapped the cake, cut off a large piece of cake, put it on a plate, and handed it to Li Chen.
"Have a taste."
Li Chen scooped a large spoonful, put it into his mouth, and nodded, "It tastes good."
"How about your mood? Are you feeling better?" The girl looked at him expectantly.
Li Chen didn't want to disappoint her, so he quickly pretended to be satisfied and nodded, "It seems that eating sweet things when you are in a bad mood is indeed useful."
"Then eat more."
"Okay." Li Chen smiled gently, and seeing that she hadn't cut the cake for him yet, he put the cake in his hand down.
The girl was confused and was about to ask when he picked up a piece of cut cake and handed it to her. However, when he felt the temperature of her fingers, he frowned slightly, "So cold?"
Only then did he realize that the girl was wrapped in a thick blanket. Although it was already autumn and the temperature was indeed lower at night, it was not so cold.
Worried that she was sick, he raised his hand and touched her forehead. It wasn't hot, but there was no temperature at all.
Seeing his puzzled expression, the girl explained: "It's an old problem. It happens when I touch the cold air. It's okay. It will be fine in a while."
"How long have you been like this?"
"It's been five or six years. I'm used to it. It's okay."
Li Chen watched her say this calmly, and felt a dull pain somewhere in his heart.
Thinking that she had a bad stomach and couldn't eat raw or cold food, he actually forgot about it and cut the cake in the refrigerator for her.
Thinking of this, he took the cake from her hand again and said, "Put it aside for a while before eating."
"But I want to try it now." The girl's eyes sparkled. Li Chen paused in taking back the cake. He couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to send the cake back, "You can only have a small bite."
The girl nodded, obediently picked up a small piece and put it in her mouth.
So sweet.
She had eaten cake before, but that was a long time ago, and that piece of cake was just a small piece she got on Jiang Hengzhi's birthday.
Several years have passed in a flash. When I tasted the cake again, I felt mixed emotions.
"Thank you. This is the first time I have a cake of my own since I was a child."
Li Chen was stunned. He looked at the girl and had a lot to say, but the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.
He didn't know if the girl was really an orphan, or if she had parents but they just treated her badly...
But no matter which one it is, it is enough to show that she was not living a good life before she was abducted.
At this moment, he felt even more distressed for the girl. He raised his head and stroked the top of her head. He said in a gentle voice, "You will have a lot of cakes in the future. No, not only cakes, but also other things, such as candies, snacks, and beautiful princess dresses... Believe me, okay?"
Meeting Li Chen's eyes, the girl nodded.
In fact, these things are no longer important to her now. She only hopes that Li Chen can always be there. As long as he is there, it doesn’t matter how her life will be in the future.
But when faced with Li Chen's sincere gaze, she couldn't even shake her head, nor could she open her mouth to ask him for more.
She had a vague premonition that the time she and Li Chen could spend together like this was running out.
When did she start to have this feeling? Probably when he said he was going to take her to meet someone...
Li Chen has his own life and his own job. His job is in Yangcheng, but he traveled thousands of miles to bring her back to Beijing. It is impossible for him to give up everything in Yangcheng and stay in Beijing to take care of her just because of her.
When he said he wanted to find her a home, did he mean to find someone to adopt her? Or did he mean to arrange for someone to take care of her, as he had said in Chuancheng?
But no matter which one it is, Li Chen can't always be with her.
Over the past few years, she has been constantly being resold and has seen all kinds of people and things. She can still think of some things.
Li Chen had no obligation to take care of her, and she had no right to drag Li Chen along.
On the contrary, she was already very satisfied to have known him and spent such a short time with him.
If Li Chen could hear what she was thinking at this moment, he would be so shocked that his mouth would be unable to close. After all, the girl in front of him was only eleven years old, but her mind was more insightful than that of an adult.
The next morning.
When the girl woke up, it was already bright. Thinking that Li Chen was going to take her to see someone today, she got up calmly, made the quilt, and got dressed and washed up as usual.
The only difference was that this time when she left the bedroom, she stood at the door and stayed there for a long time.
If all goes well, she probably won't come back after today.
Although Li Chen said that this is her eternal home.
But once he has finally settled her down, he will return to Yangcheng. Will she have a chance to come back here?
By that time, even just wanting to see Li Chen once would be a luxury.
After closing the door, she went to the living room and found Li Chen already sitting on the sofa waiting for her.
Seeing her come out, he stood up and looked her up and down. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he said, "Let's go, we're leaving now."
The girl nodded and followed Li Chen out the door.
The car drove out of the city and onto the mountain road. After about twenty minutes, we saw an iron gate in the distance, and next to the iron gate was a small house.
As if they had already given notice, the iron gate opened directly when Li Chen's car approached.
He entered unimpeded, and the girl kept looking out the window. One side of the road was lined with trees, and on the other side, there looked like a large green football field. But the strange thing was, why were there horses on the field?
