The Little One's Critical Drool Attack, Sweet with the Scent of Milk

Sitting on the sofa in the mother-and-baby store, Jiang Yuehua thought back to what had happened at the hospital.

She had been so flustered that she had not even noticed her darling granddaughter was hungry, and she felt rather guilty.

She sighed and thought helplessly, "Ah! I'm getting old!"

Then Jiang Yuehua looked at the little one in Lin Yi's arms and spoke.

"Son, let's find a professional maternity and infant caregiver for the little one later. I'm afraid I won't be able to take good care of her."

"What are you thinking, Mom? I never intended for you to take care of the little one. You should just relax and enjoy yourself."

"You little brat, do you think I'm too old to do anything?"

With that, Jiang Yuehua reached over and tugged Lin Yi's ear. The little one in his arms actually laughed out loud when she saw Grandma bullying Daddy.

"Giggle~ giggle~"

"Mom, that hurts~" Lin Yi grimaced, but he did not reach up to touch his injured ear, mainly because he was afraid the little one in his arms might hurt her back.

But his own daughter was something else. She saw her dad being bullied and could still laugh so happily. She really was his own daughter!

"Mom, that's not what I meant. You can tell at a glance that the little one is pretty lively."

"I'm thinking of your health. If you wear yourself out, Dad will skin me alive."

Lin Yi said with a smile. He was mainly concerned for his mother, though if he did make her wear herself out, his father would definitely give him a sound beating.

Growing up, Lin Yi had experienced more than once how his parents were each other's true love, and he was the accident.

"You little brat, Mom appreciates the thought."

"We'll go take a look at a maternity and infant care center later."

"Mm." Lin Yi nodded silently.

"Whoosh~"

"Mm~"

Remembering how happy the little one had looked just now, Lin Yi began lecturing her.

"You little rascal, why were you laughing so happily when Daddy was getting beaten up?"

"Daddy was hurting so much. Will you blow on it for me?"

"Phew~"

"Hoo~"

Seeing the little one pucker her lips and blow, Lin Yi thought his darling daughter had understood and was going to blow on his ear. His wounded heart sprang back to life at once.

"Ah, my darling daughter is wonderful."

After saying that, Lin Yi brought his ear close to the little one.

Who would have expected that what awaited him was a critical drool attack from his daughter?

"Achoo~"

Seeing the sorry state she had put Daddy in, the baby burst out laughing.

Lin Yi felt certain that the little one had lured him into a trap, but he had no proof.

"Giggle~ giggle~"

That hearty laughter sounded as though she were mocking Lin Yi.

Although the little one had sprayed his face with drool, it smelled of milk powder.

It had a sweet, milky scent that was quite pleasant.

Beside him, Jiang Yuehua could not help praising her granddaughter when she saw Lin Yi's pitiful state. "My darling granddaughter is so clever. She actually managed to get the better of Daddy."

"That's my granddaughter, all right."

"Yes, yes, yes," Lin Yi chimed in from the side, his face full of helplessness.

His mother had been completely swept off her feet by her own granddaughter.

They did not have to wait long before the sales assistant had packed up all the mother-and-baby products.

A woman in a gray work uniform, wearing a name tag identifying her as the store manager, walked over and smiled as she addressed Lin Yi.

"Hello, sir. I'm the manager of this store. You can just call me Xiao Zhang."

"May I ask how you could tell there was a quality issue with the Baoyoule milk powder?"

"It was a lucky guess," Lin Yi said simply. He certainly could not say that the system had scanned it, or he would surely be dragged away as a lab rat for research.

The manager could tell Lin Yi was unwilling to reveal anything, so she said, "This is our store's exclusive membership card. It gives you fifteen percent off every purchase."

"Please accept it."

With that, the manager held out the membership card.

"Mm, thank you." After thanking her, Lin Yi slipped the card into his pocket.

The manager then led Lin Yi and his party to the checkout counter, where the cashier said with a smile, "Sir, after the discount, your total comes to 23,546 yuan."

When the people around them heard the amount, their eyes widened.

They had spent that much on mother-and-baby products? Did his family own a mine?

If that bejeweled middle-aged woman knew Lin Yi had bought all these things, she would surely regret what she had said about him trying to get a bargain.

"All right." Lin Yi took a bank card from his pocket and handed it over. "There's no password. Just swipe it."

Ordinary people might not know what kind of bank card Lin Yi had taken out, but as the store manager, she had been fortunate enough to see one once before.

She had heard people call it a black card, which banks only authorized for people worth several quadrillion yuan, and she had heard that the requirements for obtaining one were extremely stringent.

Moreover, the lower the serial number on it, the higher the holder's net worth.

The black card Lin Yi handed over had the serial number 3, while his parents each had a black card of their own, with serial numbers 1 and 2.

The black card the mother-and-baby store manager had seen had a serial number above fifty.

"Hm? Oh, all right." It was the cashier's first time encountering a situation like this too. Lin Yi's bank card was a different color from other bank cards, and she had never seen one like it.

She swiped it through the POS machine to give it a try, and to her surprise, it actually worked.

"Sir, your card."

The cashier respectfully held the card out to Lin Yi.

For some reason, after the card went through, the cashier felt that Lin Yi was no ordinary person.

Lin Yi put the bank card in his pocket and looked down at the bags of all sizes, at a loss.

There were more than ten bags in total, and there was no way they would all fit in the trunk.

"Do you have a delivery service?"

"Um... yes."

They did not normally offer one, but the manager knew Lin Yi was a person of distinguished status and agreed at once.

"All right, I'll give you an address. Just deliver them in two hours."

"Of course, sir."

After seeing Lin Yi off, a store employee asked in puzzlement, "Manager, why did you agree to deliver the things for him?"

"First, let me ask you a question. Do you know what kind of card he took out to pay?"

"Wasn't it an ordinary bank card?"

"It was probably black because he put a card sticker on it!"

Hearing their answers, the manager shook her head. "What he took out was a black card. You need to be worth at least a hundred million yuan to apply for one, and whether you'll be approved is another question."

"Our store can't afford to offend someone like that."

When everyone heard this, they had not expected Lin Yi to be so formidable.

He had a black card at such a young age; he had to be someone extraordinary.

The customers around them who were waiting in line to pay had heard the manager's explanation perfectly clearly.

They had not expected such an unusual card to have such an impressive background. They had only one thought: they regretted not taking a few more looks.

They might never see one again in their lives.

After Lin Yi left, the police also came to the store to conduct tests. After all, the brand was from Rice Country, and without conclusive evidence, it could easily cause an international dispute.

However, it was already certain that there was something wrong with the product; it was only a matter of checking once more.

If nothing unexpected happened, Baoyoule milk powder would make the front-page headlines in the next couple of days.
