My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1473: Chapter 1474: Should We Visit the Set?

She herself is the type who can’t sit idle, a strong and capable woman. Her husband passed away early in a car accident, leaving her alone at home. After transferring all authority to Li Shengxiao, she invested in an investment company specializing in venture capital in her spare time. Don’t be fooled by her staying home to raise the children without formally going to work; her investment company in Capital City is quite sizable, with an annual income that could be counted among the Fortune 500.

She hired professional management staff to oversee the company and maintained control by embedding her trusted personnel in the high-level positions.

She’s usually not very busy, except during the annual account and project review period.

Coincidentally, the past few days were that busy time for her, but she made an effort to work around Little Duidui’s nap or playtime schedules. For the most part, she still managed to spend time with the little one.

So, when the old butler informed her that Little Baby refused to eat, she immediately set aside her work, looking visibly worried.

The old butler respectfully kept his hands folded in front of him and softly explained the situation, "I don’t think the young master doesn’t want to eat fruit. I think he’s missing Miss Rong."

"Hmm?"

"I noticed that around the swing where the young master was playing, there were scattered rose petals. It seemed like he was using the petals to guess whether Miss Rong will come to pick him up tonight."

Lin Zhiya stood up from her chair, saying, "I’ve been too busy these days and neglected his feelings. He’s in the garden? I’ll go check on him."

"The young master is in the garden."

She nodded and headed toward the garden.

The old butler watched her leave, the worry in his eyes finally easing a little.

...

"Mom’s coming home tonight."

Li Duidui plucked off a petal.

"Mom’s not coming home."

He plucked off another petal.

This time, as he counted the remaining petals on the flower bud, his expression grew excited. He sped up his motions and cheerfully repeated, "Mom’s coming home tonight. Mom’s not coming home. Mom’s coming home!"

He pulled off the final petal and stared at it, a wide smile spreading across his face as though he had encountered the happiest news in the world. He muttered to himself, "The method I read online really works. Mom’s definitely coming to pick me up tonight. Yes, she’ll definitely come back!"

Lin Zhiya arrived to find him sitting on the swing, muttering to himself while clutching a petal. She walked over with a smile and asked, "What is my little sweetheart looking at? Do you like these rose petals?"

He quickly hid the last lucky petal in his hand, looking up at Lin Zhiya with surprise and calling out, "Grandma?"

Lin Zhiya was already in front of him, lifting him off the swing. She ran her fingers through his small head of hair and held him tightly in her arms with a heart full of affection, saying warmly, "What’s wrong? Is my little Duidui not happy? Who made my precious grandson upset? Tell Grandma, and she’ll take care of it for you!"

Li Duidui shook his head, sulking as he said, "Nobody bullied me, and I’m not unhappy."

Lin Zhiya gently pulled away and gazed at him lovingly, "Really? Then why did I see my little Duidui looking so sad and unhappy when I was walking over here? I thought some careless servant had upset my little treasure. Turns out that wasn’t the case."

"No. The uncles and aunties here treat me very well. No one bullied me," he denied again, fearing that Lin Zhiya might unjustly blame unrelated people because of him.

Lin Zhiya was merely teasing him on purpose. Seeing how well-behaved he was, her heart melted into a soft bundle of cotton, and she couldn’t bear to continue joking with him. Smiling, she suddenly said, "Well then... Duidui, would you like to come with me to visit your mom at work?"
