Chapter 557 - Are You Trying To Fatten Him Up?
Taio had a fun time at the Chen residence, as Lady Chen really prepared before bringing him over.
There was a playground made for him.
Lady Chen and Chen K indulged him a lot. They don't scold him and let him do what he wanted.
Taio had a food plan, which Chen Lihua made sure he adheres to. The Liu family followed it, but trust Lady Chen to do her thing once in a while.
Taio was limited to the sweet things he eats in a day, like chocolates, sweets, candies, etc.
Sometimes, Lady Chen would follow the rules, and sometimes, she would add a little extra.
Chen Weiyuan couldn't stay away from the little guy as well. Once he comes back from work, he would freshen up and find the little guy to play with him.
These days, his parents have been leaving most of the work to him.
Lady Chen took leave, while on the other hand, Chen K would leave work early, so he would have a lot of time to play with his grandson.
Chen Weiyuan felt it was unfair to him, but no matter how bad he felt, he still needed to settle the company matters before returning home.
In the evenings, he would do a little exercise with Taio. The little guy was so active and obedient. But when he wants to act stubborn, you will definitely remove your cap for him.
When the 4th day passed and Lady Chen did not bring Taio home, she was a bit annoyed and had to place a video call.
Lady Chen didn't want to answer the incoming call, but when she received a threatening message from Chen Lihua, she had no choice but to accept the video call.
The message said, 'Mum, if you don't accept the video call, I will come and take my son back, and then I won't hand him over to you again!.'
Seeing that threat, why wouldn't Lady Chen answer the call?
"Hehehe... this child, you are threatening your mother now?." Lady Chen asked as she patted her hair.
"Mum, what's your reason for not sending my son back to me?." Chen Lihua asked. She was sitting in the living room.
"I went shopping with Taio, and we came back late." Lady Chen replied.
"What?! You took him shopping? Mum!" Chen Lihua called out angrily.
Lady Chen thanked God that she didn't connect the phone to the earpiece otherwise, her ears would have exploded.
With a frown, she asked, "Why are you shouting?."
"Mum, hope my son was not photographed? I don't trust you at all. If Taio's identity is revealed, I will bring your house down!." Chen Lihua threatened.
At this point, Liu Longwei appeared behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder to calm her down.
"Hello, Mum!". Liu Longwei greeted Lady Chen.
"Hello, Longwei!." Lady Chen replied before fixing her gaze back to Chen Lihua.
"Lihua, how do you think I will be so careless as to let Taio's face be seen? You don't even trust me? I reserved the whole store just to enjoy shopping with my grandson. It was just Manager Sun and Baozhai that accompanied us to shop. Your father joined us, as well."
With her mother's revelation, Chen Lihua calmed down a lot. She had been afraid that her mother wouldn't hold back and show Taio off, even to her friends.
"Mum, what did you and dad buy for him?." Chen Lihua asked as she felt an incoming headache.
"Nothing much! Why are you asking, you will see them when we send him home?" Lady Chen said as and looked away.
She didn't want that brat screaming in her ears again. Just wait till she sees the loads of items they got for the little guy!
"Mum, where is my son, I want to see him." Chen Lihua said.
She hasn't seen her son for more than 24 hours and she missed him.
Lady Chen sighed and had the Butler, call Chen Weiyuan over.
"Is that sister on the phone?." Chen Weiyuan asked as he walked over with Taio in his arms.
"Yes, bring Taio over, she wants to see him." Lady Chen replied.
The little guy was eating some gummy bears and was very comfortable in his uncle's arms. Learning that his mother was on the phone, he hurriedly put the remaining gummy bears in his mouth and chewed on them as quickly as possible.
What was going on in little mind was that his mother wouldn't be happy if she saw him eating gummy bears at night.
Chen Weiyuan brought Taio to Lady Chen's side. He said hello to Chen Lihua and Liu Longwei before walking to another sofa, to sit.
"Mummy!" Taio called it with a smile as he waves his little arms.
Chen Lihua smiled and called out to him as well.
"Did you miss Mummy?." She asked.
"Yes, I missed mummy!." The little guy replied enthusiastically.
Chen Lihua allowed him to exchange greetings with Liu Longwei.
Chen Lihua frowned as she gazed intently at Taio. She couldn't help but ask when she noticed that the corner of his lips looked like it was smeared with something.
"Taio, what did you eat?." Chen Lihua asked.
Taio glanced at Lady Chen, who looked helpless. Glancing back at his mother who was waiting for his reply, he replied in a soft tone.
"Gummy bears."
"Who gave them to you?." Chen Lihua asked as a frozen appeared on her face.
Taio glanced at his uncle who had looked away, before turning back to the screen to answer his mother, "It's uncle."
Chen Lihua felt so vexed that she asked Lady Chen to direct the camera to her brother, so she could see him.
"Brother, you gave my son so many calories late at night, are you trying to fatten him up?." Chen Lihua asked angrily.
Chen Weiyuan waved his hands in denial, as he felt a little afraid that his junior sister, has become a tigress.
"Mum, I want to see my son when I return from work tomorrow. Greet dad for me."
Fixing her gaze on the little guy, she said to him in a gentle tone, "Taio, no more gummy bears late at night. Sleep early, I will see you tomorrow, good night."
After saying that, she left him to say goodnight to his father before she terminated the call.
When the call ended, Chen Weiyuan asked, "Mum, will Lihua let us take Taio again?."
"What do you think?. Who asked you to give Taio gummy bears when it's past 7 pm? Have you seen me do that before?" Lady Chen asked as she pointed at him.
"But you usually give him a little bit more." Chen Weiyuan said with a frown.
"During those times, did you see me go that late at night?." Lady Chen asked angrily.
