Mrs. Li greeted Rong Yan with a smile, beckoning warmly, “This young lady…
come, come, don’t be nervous. Come over here, have a seat. I’ll have someone prepare some fruit for you. What kind of fruit do you like?”
“Uh.” Rong Yan hadn’t expected such enthusiasm and looked somewhat helplessly at the person beside her.
Receiving her distress signal, Li Shengxiao cheerfully stepped in front of her and spoke to Mrs. Li, “Rong Yan is a Chinese medicine practitioner I found. She has studied acupuncture abroad and is an expert in that field. I want her to take a look at Duidui; maybe she can find a treatment from a Traditional Chinese
Medicine perspective. Where is Duidui?”
Hearing that it concerned her grandson and that Rong Yan was a doctor, Mrs. Li’s enthusiasm faded but became a bit more genuine than before, “He’s in his room upstairs.”
“A specialist in this field? That’s wonderful!”
Mrs. Li clasped her hand eagerly, “Miss Rong, you must give my grandson a thorough examination, thank you.”
She thought the doctor her son had found was an expert, definitely having extraordinary accomplishments in Traditional Chinese Medicine. If she knew Rong Yan hadn’t even received her university diploma yet, she’d definitely be shocked.
Although Rong Yan hadn’t received her diploma, she was very confident in acupuncture and Chinese medicine, especially in treating Duidui. Despite the person next to her blatantly lying without a blush, claiming she was an expert, Rong Yan steeled herself to respond, “Hmm, I’ll do my best.”
Her grandson, Duidui… She had now confirmed who Li Shengxiao was taking her to see! Her heart thrumming like a drum, she wished she could fly straight to the little one and give him a big kiss!
She had been wondering how to reach the little guy without raising suspicions from the Li family, and now the opportunity had presented itself. The little tiger was full of suspicions; if she didn’t see him for so long, he might think she didn’t want him anymore!
Even though it could unnecessarily entangle her with this man, she couldn’t resist the opportunity.
“Follow me.”
Li Shengxiao turned back and instructed her in a low voice.
Rong Yan nodded and, under the keen gazes of the Li family elders, cautiously ascended the stairs…
The Li family’s home was decorated in a Chinese style, unassuming yet luxurious, with dark wooden bedroom doors closed tightly.
Rong Yan could barely contain her excitement to burst in.
Her son… It had been only a week since she saw him, but it felt like half a century had passed, and she missed him to the point of madness.
“We’re here.”
Li Shengxiao knocked on the door and turned the doorknob.
The bedroom was beautifully decorated, with sky blue walls painted in oil color splashes of The Little Prince and the fox, and the round, soft, large bed was adorable. Toys were arranged everywhere, all from notable brands. The extravagant children’s room and thoughtful decoration throughout revealed how much the Li family cherished this newly acknowledged Crown Prince.
A little bottom lay on the bed, and he looked absolutely adorable in his little tiger pajamas, with only the droopy patterned tail visible, hanging limply off the bed. The little tiger didn’t even turn his head.
“Duidui.” Li Shengxiao’s eyes softened when he saw the little figure on the bed and called out softly.
The person lying on the bed didn’t turn around, as if he were asleep and hadn’t heard.
Until Rong Yan said, “His name is Duidui?”
Of course, it was Duidui, because he was her Duidui—her precious little Demoncontemporary romance
King who would defy heaven and earth and the very air itself–
“Mm-hmm.” Li Shengxiao sounded somewhat helpless as he spoke, “It’s his nickname.”
His mother didn’t lack for other names for the little guy; she used to call him ‘sweetheart.’ But the little one, who had been behaving so well and obediently the past few days, was incredibly stubborn about his nickname, insisting people call him Duidui. And so, his nickname became the glorious Li Duidui..
