Chapter 1094: Chapter 1094: Could it be an illegitimate child
The fact is, Old Master Li is getting on in years and is still unwell, so after accompanying Nuonuo for a dical checkup, he went back.
He let the Old Butler and Huo Yi accompany Bae Chi and the others to find Li Beijue.
Because Nuonuo was very brave during the needle procedure earlier, Chi Jingchen especially rewarded her with a lollipop. She had it in her small mouth with her eyebrows and eyes curved in a smile, cheeks puffed out, holding her brother’s hand, completely forgetting the pain from the needle earlier as she followed Chi Jingchen’s steps, looking curiously around.
When she saw the artificial mountain and the goldfish in the pool, she gestured excitedly for Chi Jingchen to look as well, “Bro-brother, fish!”
“Bro-brother, look, fishy~!”
Bae Chi, watching her restored bright smile on her little face, felt less distressed. While holding her hand to prevent her from falling, he said, “Alright, don’t get too close to the water, just stand by and watch.”
“Fishy…” Nuonuo stopped eating her lollipop, excitedly pointing at the goldfish in the pool.
The goldfish were startled by her and darted around.
But she thought the goldfish were dancing and beca even more animated.
Seeing her joyous little self, the Old Butler and Huo Yi felt their hearts warm at the sa ti, choosing not to rush her.
Yet at this mont, soone had to co and ruin this happiness.
“Butler, who are they?”
The Old Butler heard a strange voice interrupt, and only then did he notice Scarlett had arrived. He retracted the kindness in his eyes, diverting the conversation officially, “Why has Your Highness co out? Is your knee okay?”
When the knee injury was ntioned, a haze flashed in Scarlett’s eyes.
But she was very good at disguising herself, responding sweetly, “Much better, thank you for your concern, Old Butler.”
Saying that, her curious gaze again fell on Nuonuo and Bae Chi, as though assessing them. She asked, “Are the little brother and little sister relatives of Old Master Jue? They look so cute, they should be a pair of siblings, right?”
There was a mont of doubt in her eyes when she saw the identical red phoenix eyes of Bae Chi and Li Beijue.
Impossible.
This little boy couldn’t be Brother Beijue’s son, could he?
Her heart skipped a beat, but she imdiately denied it.
It should be impossible!
Brother Beijue isn’t married yet, and there haven’t been any rumors of Brother Beijue having a son.
In that case, these beautiful children should be relatives of Old Master Li.
Having been questioned so directly, the Old Butler couldn’t avoid her question any longer and had to say, “The Little Young Master and Little Miss are Old Master Jue’s great-grandchildren.”
Great-grandchildren?
Scarlett recalled that Li Beijue had a cousin. So, they must be his cousin’s children.
However, she rembered that the Elder Miss Li wasn’t married.
Could they be illegitimate children?
Scarlett secretly speculated in her heart but maintained a sweet smile on her face, “So they are Old Master Jue’s great-grandchildren.”
She said ruefully, “If I had known I would et the little brother and sister here, I would have prepared a gift. What should I do now?”
“No need to trouble yourself, Your Highness.”
“It’s the first ti we’ve t, I should prepare a gift. Oh.” Scarlett seed to have thought of sothing, taking off the necklace around her neck, she walked over to Nuonuo, whose attention was all on the goldfish, crouched down, and said with a beaming smile, “Little sister, what’s your na?”
Chi Jingchen looked at this overly familiar woman in front of him, and furrowed his eyebrows tightly!
