Chapter 1001: Chapter 1001: Baby Chi Calls

“Old Master Jue is just very principled. Sometimes he might seem unapproachable, but he’s actually easy to get along with. Besides, he’s particularly susceptible to persistent requests.”

The last sentence was the key point. Chi Enen silently jotted it down and sincerely thanked him, “I understand, thank you.”

The Old Butler saw her expression and knew she had grasped the meaning behind his words. He smiled faintly and accompanied her to the doorway, respectfully saying, “Miss Chi, bring the Little Young Master over to play someday. I’d love to meet him.”

“Alright.” Once she earned Li Beijue’s grandfather’s approval, she’d bring Baby Chi along.

To think about it, Baby Chi had grown up this much but had never been to the Li family estate because of her… Chi Enen’s gaze dimmed briefly but quickly turned brighter and more resolute!

She needed to give it her all!

The Old Butler politely bowed slightly to her and then left.

Chi Enen watched him disappear at the staircase before turning around and preparing to open the door.

Just as she raised her hand, she froze in place, suddenly realizing–Li Beijue’s room door was equipped with fingerprint and facial recognition systems.

When she entered the room for the first time, she had been with Li Beijue. With him there, she had naturally gone inside.

But now Li Beijue was asleep from the anesthesia injection and wasn’t by her side. How could she get inside?

Should she knock?

Chi Enen hesitated for a moment, furrowing her eyebrows.

If Li Beijue hadn’t woken up, she didn’t want to disturb him. For one, he was so badly injured, and even the doctor had advised it was best for him to rest for a while. Secondly, if Li Beijue woke up, he’d see the note she had left and know she had gone to visit the Old Master.

She had left that note in case he woke up and found her missing, leading to unnecessary worrying and impatience.

But now that she had returned so quickly, she naturally didn’t want him to see the note and risk worsening the strained relationship between him and the Old Master.

Especially now that the Old Butler had explained so much to her. She understood Old Master Li a little more now and felt he might not be as difficult to get along with as she had imagined. If she put in more effort, there was a chance to change his perception of her.

However, if Li Beijue got involved, things might turn more complicated instead.

But if she couldn’t open the door, how could she go inside to dispose of the note?

Chi Enen pressed her lips tightly together and was about to try using her fingerprint when suddenly, her mobile phone vibrated.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Could Li Beijue have woken up and already seen the note?

She pulled out her mobile phone and glanced at it, then immediately exhaled in relief. She answered the incoming video call.

After a brief blur on the screen, the video connected, and on the other side appeared an adorable little face, pink and chubby, like a Little Apple–it was none other than Nuonuo.

Nuonuo’s big, curious eyes were staring straight at the camera, as if she had discovered something novel and amusing. Very soon, her gaze dropped slightly, noticing Chi Enen on the phone screen. She immediately opened her mouth wide in excitement, clapping her hands and shouting enthusiastically, “Cat… Cat…”

Beside her, Baby Chi, who was holding the phone, rolled his eyes dramatically, giving her a disappointed look. He pulled the little girl who was about to pounce on the phone into his arms, handed the mobile to Huo Yi to hold, and said in exasperation, “It’s Mommy, not Cat!”

“Mom…”

“It’s Mommy…”

“Cat… Mom?” Nuonuo seemed to be stuck on those words and couldn’t pronounce them properly. Her tongue twisted awkwardly as she tilted her little head, “Cat… Mau…”
