Just as Ke had hailed a taxi and got on with the adorable child and his dog, intending to bring them home first and deal with everything else later, a ring of a cell phone resounded.

That wasn't his ringtone though.

He glanced at the child subtly, only to see him glancing back awkwardly...

"It's my phone..."

What the? You couldn't remember the contact information of your family members, yet you have a cell phone?

"Little buddy, it's not good to tell lies," he spoke up.

"You never asked me if I had a phone," the child retorted.

In this day and age, which three or four-year-old would carry a cell phone everywhere they went?

Not to mention those who would leave the house with a pet dog were even fewer.

"I need to pick this up, and I'll explain to you later," the child said.

And so, he answered his phone.

Damn Li Jue Xi, there's always time to call, but why did he choose this moment? It put him in such an embarrassing position, making him look like a little liar.

He certainly wouldn't present a pleasant face next time!

Once the phone call was answered, a gentle but somewhat cold voice reached Li Yun Han's ears. "Li Yun Han, I heard you have run away from home again?"

"Yeah! You should have gotten used to it by now, it's not the first or second time after all."

So even he knows...

"Where are you?"

"Where I am is not important, the important thing is, I know where you are, Li Jue Xi!" The little one pouted her lips and began to reproach, "You're really brazen, actually attending the night banquet again. If some dubious woman seduces you, I won't want you anymore!"

The little one's tone was overbearing, as if she was the parent.

However, Li Jue Xi didn't utter a word, just calmly said, "I am here for business."

"Why must you go to that ghastly place for business talks, full of gaudy women with rouge and powder, can't you go somewhere more normal!"

"You're being overly especially nosy!" Li Jue Xi's tone was as cold as ice.

In other families, fathers manage sons. In their family, the one unique offspring in hundreds of years manages father much like an instructor would. He is indeed an anomaly in the family line.

But it's his own offspring, what can he do?

"Fine, so you think I'm being overly interested, right! Let me tell you, I don't need you anymore. I'll also find a woman to elope with and leave you without a successor, hmph!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

An Xiao Xi asked with a face of turmoil, "Excuse me... is that woman supposed to be me?"

"Eloping with me, wouldn't that be your honor? I'm so cute and adorable!"

He was just a domineering CEO a moment ago, but before An Xiao Xi, he transformed into a cute little darling in a heartbeat.

An Xiao Xi's heart unwittingly softened into a mess. Well, eloping would be fine!

"Who the hell wouldn't want to share a personal moment in this lifetime?

Instantly, with a rush of emotion, I replied: "Alright, I will sneak you away to my place and cook some delicious food for you."

"Great, from now on I'll be your protector!"

An Xiao Xi took it as a joke initially, but from then on, it seemed like she had an additional guardian by her side.

Who is Li Jue Xi? He is the CEO of Emperor Group, a self-made man who founded Emperor Group ten years ago.

Rumors abound that the second young master Li is ruthless, iron-blooded, capable of summoning storms and controlling the rain. Therefore, no one in Jing City dares to provoke him.

Yet, just like that... he was hung up on by his own son.

The atmosphere was so tense that it was almost tangible. In the private banquet room, everyone felt a chill upon seeing the gloomy expression on Li Jue Xi's face, and they didn't dare to breathe too loudly.

Li Jue Xi's thick eyebrows furrowed, dialing his personal assistant: "You have one hour to find young master!"

"Yes, CEO!"
