“Daddy, it was her who poured hot water into my mouth willingly,” Coco immediately exposed her conspiracy, sticking out his tongue. “My tongue is burnt, and it hurts so much.”

Coco cried sadly.

Li Zhenting was greatly shocked and quickly examined him. Sure enough, Coco’s tongue was slightly red.

For a moment, he couldn’t determine who was right or wrong. But seeing his child injured, he felt distressed. He picked Coco up.

“My foot is burnt too.” Coco pointed at his foot, speaking in a pitiful voice.

He was wearing small slippers, and his tender little feet were visibly red.

Li Zhenting’s eyes darkened. He placed Coco on the sofa and fetched the first aid kit to carefully apply ointment to the little guy.

Shen Mei sat beside him, watching him tend to his son with mixed feelings. In reality, her burn was much worse than Coco’s, but his eyes were always focused on the child.

After a while, Ding Ding’s ointment was applied.

“Alright, Ding Ding, Daddy will take you back to your room to rest. 1 need to go out soon,” Li Zhenting said as he prepared to take Coco back to his room.

“No, Daddy, I want to go find Grandma.” Coco panicked when he heard that Daddy was going out. He didn’t want to stay at home with the wicked stepmother Shen Mei. He immediately started shouting.

“No, Grandma has something to do today, you can’t go.”

Today, Li Zhenting arranged for Li Wanqing to receive some important guests at the tea party. Naturally, Ding Ding couldn’t go with him.

“Then 1’11 go to Xiao Xiao’s house.”

When Coco went to kindergarten today, Xiao Xiao told him that Mommy would be working late tonight, so he could go and play with Xiao Xiao and Ding Ding.

Li Zhenting heard this and didn’t say anything. It was almost six o’clock, and it would be too troublesome to go there.

“Daddy, I want to go to Xiao Xiao’s house.” Coco began to throw a tantrum, sitting on the ground and crying non-stop.

Li Zhenting had a headache. “Will Xiao Xiao’s mommy agree?”

“She will.” Coco was very certain.

“Then ask Xiao Xiao’s mommy to give me a call.” Helpless, Li Zhenting had to say this.

“Okay.” Unexpectedly, Coco agreed immediately and took out his phone watch to send a message to Xiao Xiao.

“Zhenting, why wasn’t I informed about the tea party tonight? Am 1 not qualified to attend? Gu Qi should also have my share, right?” Shen Mei brought up her concerns and looked pitifully at Li Zhenting.

Li Zhenting responded calmly, “Just relax and stay at home as Mrs. Li. Don’t interfere with Gu Qi’s affairs for now; i have my own arrangements.”

“But as you can see, Ding Ding’s animosity towards me is growing. You have to think about me. I’m feeling so miserable,” she said, tears welling up in her eyes.

“Don’t worry, I’ll work on Ding Ding’s mindset. You’re not his stepmother; he will eventually accept you,” Li Zhenting reassured her, while also finding Ding Ding’s attitude problematic.

But today, Ding Ding’s tongue was burnt, and his foot was burnt as well. Although Shen Mei also got burnt, she was an adult, and with adults around, a child should not get burnt. Regardless of the reason, Shen Mei had an undeniable responsibility.

“At the same time, you should reflect on yourself more and think about why the child doesn’t like you and is unwilling to accept you. There must be many areas where you haven’t done well enough,” Li Zhenting criticized without holding back.

Shen Mei’s face darkened.

At this moment, Li Zhenting’s phone beeped.

He received a message from Xiao Xiao, who was imitating Shen Ning:

“Ding Ding’s guardian, let Ding Ding come over and play with Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao really likes him, and I’m very welcoming to have Ding Ding come to our house.”

Li Zhenting sighed and had no words to say. He could only carry Coco and leave.

Shen Mei watched the father and son walk away in the distance, her eyes flashing with a cold light.

After a while, she went upstairs to tidy up and dress herself up, then called the driver. Despite the pain in her feet, she hurried to the St. Heaven Grand Hotel.

How could she possibly miss such a lively tea party!
