Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044: Ding! Baby Chi’s EQ is no joke!
“Didn’t you promise to call at ten? Woman, you’re late again!” Baby Chi’s unhappy voice ca from the mobile phone.
Suddenly, he noticed soone else on the bed behind Chi Enen—not resembling The Neighbor Old Wang at all. His eyebrows furrowed sharply, “Chi Enen, who’s behind you?”
Chi Enen paused and said, “Baby, call him Grandpa.”
Grandpa?
So, that’s The Neighbor Old Wang’s grandfather.
In other words, the stubborn old man who, as legend has it, refuses to accept the woman from his family no matter what.
Baby Chi quickly ford his own judgnt and adjusted his tone from the casual manner he’d used with Chi Enen earlier. In a childish voice, he called out, “Grandpa.”
He was exceptionally good-looking, combining the best features of Li Beijue and Chi Enen. He lacked the distinct aloofness typical of the Li family while inheriting their sharp facial contours. This blend made him, even at such a young age, clearly destined to grow into a showstopper, irresistibly charming.
“Grandpa, are you sick? Your face looks so pale.” Baby Chi acted like he knew Old Master Li well, even though this was his first ti interacting with him. He was so considerate and sensible that it was impossible for anyone to dislike him. Without waiting for Old Master Li to respond, he continued sweetly, “My… my mommy is really good at making white porridge. Grandpa, you can let my mommy make so white porridge for you to drink. Whenever I’m sick, she makes it for , and it’s really delicious.”
Old Master Li was no ordinary person—how could he fail to notice that Baby Chi was subtly helping Chi Enen out with his words? He couldn’t help but be astonished by Baby Chi’s emotional intelligence, which far exceeded his expectations.
As for his IQ, Old Master Li already knew he’d been secretly learning about investnts from Li Beijue.
Without a doubt, he was a genius.
No matter how forceful or cold Old Master Li could be, faced with such an adorable little face and such heartfelt concern, he couldn’t remain unmoved.
Especially since this clever child was his own little grandson.
He pressed the corner of his mouth together, his authoritative gaze sweeping over Chi Enen before he finally spoke, “Your… your mommy made it for . I’ll eat it later.”
Chi Enen hadn’t expected him to be willing to eat.
She froze for a mont.
On the other end, Baby Chi reacted quickly and promptly added, “Grandpa, you have to rember to eat it. Get well soon so your body is healthy.”
“Alright.” Old Master Li’s gaze softened as he agreed.
Baby Chi replied sensibly, “Then I won’t bother Grandpa’s rest anymore. Since you’re feeling unwell, after eating the porridge, you should sleep for a bit. I’ll call you another day.”
After saying this, he didn’t forget to praise Chi Enen again: “My mommy also knows how to make tomato egg noodles. She makes them for all the ti. If you want to try them, you can let my mommy make so. Her tomato egg noodles are also incredibly good.”
Tomato egg noodles… Old Master Li knew what it was but had rarely eaten such ordinary fare. Still, he nodded slightly in agreent.
Baby Chi gave Chi Enen a satisfied look and then ended the video call.
Chi Enen looked at his precocious behavior and didn’t know what to say. She secretly sent him a ssage telling him she would call him back later.
Only then did she put away the mobile phone.
Old Master Li acted as if he hadn’t noticed her subtle movents, picking up the bowl of white porridge in front of him. The previously tense atmosphere in the air had completely dissipated.
He took a bite of the white porridge. As expected, the taste was excellent—soft and smooth, perfect for an old man like him. He looked up at Chi Enen and suddenly said, “Make another bowl tomorrow.”
After a quick pause, he added, “Tomato egg noodles this ti.”
