Bai Hua waited for a long while before a childish voice finally sounded from the other end of the phone. “Hello, who is this?”

Kids' voices sounded all alike. For a moment, Bai Hua could not differentiate if it was Dabao or Erbao.

“Are you Dabao or Erbao? Where is your daddy?”

“I am Erbao,” Dabao responded.

Erbao, who was listening next to him, was beyond anxious. What is Dabao trying to do? Why is he pretending to be me?

Dabao blinked a few times at Erbao and signaled her to keep calm.

“I see. Erbao, where is your daddy?” Bai Hua asked.

“Daddy is working in the study room. He is on his other phone. Who are you?” Dabao asked.

Erbao could not wrap her head around it. I thought he didn't lie as he always said he was an honest person. How could he lie so naturally? The problem is—he is lying by using my name. I will be held responsible as well!

Erbao was beyond exasperated, but still, she did not dare to make a sound.

“I see. Please ask him to answer the phone then,” Bai Hua uttered.

“He is busy. Is there anything? You can tell me. I'll pass the message to him,” Dabao responded.

“I'm Grandma. Can you recognize my voice?” Bai Hua asked.

“Hello, Grandma,” Dabao greeted.

“Hello. Please ask your daddy to call me back later.”

“Okay, but he is really busy. I'm afraid he might forget it later. It would be better if you could tell me directly what it is about. And I'll pass the message to him. Then he won't forget about it.”

“Okay then. Please tell him to come to the presidential room in Nanting No.1 Hotel. I need to discuss something with him,” Bai Hua said.

“Okay. Is it something important?” Dabao asked.

“Why are you asking so many questions? Don't bother yourself with the adult's business. Just relay my message.” Bai Hua sounded somewhat impatient.

“All right. I got it,” Dabao responded.

Hanging up the phone, Dabao fell into deep pondering.
