Angrily, Lu Xingguang glared at Lu Zhanxiu, insisting, “I want her to!”
“Not allowed!”
Yan Susu was stunned. Why on earth would anyone butt heads with their own child?
“You’re a big bully. I will complain to Grandpa and Grandma!” Lu Xingguang bawled, filled with intense loathing for his father.
Lu Zhanxiu murmured with disdain, “Once a little snitch, always a little snitch.”
“I am not a little snitch. I am a real man. I will grow up quickly and steal your woman!” ranted the furious Lu Xingguang as he brushed at his tears defiantly.
He refused to cry or complain to his grandparents; he would not give that hateful father of his the chance to call him a little snitch.
Noting that Lu Xingguang was getting too agitated by the teasing, Yan Susu felt sorry for him and relented. “I will take him to school.”
At that, Lu Xingguang’s eyes lit up immediately. He looked tauntingly at his father. See, sure enough, my honey loves me the most!
In response to his son’s taunt, Lu Zhanxiu’s arms tensed up, and he commanded bossily, “Not allowed. Mrs. Lu needs to take me to work.”
Yan Susu was speechless.
He was a grown man. Why would he need to be escorted to work?
“Lu Zhanxiu, I hate you!” Lu Xingguang charged up the stairs, intending to lock himself in his room and protest by refusing to eat.
“He’s really upset!” exclaimed Yan Susu anxiously, scrambling to get off Lu Zhanxiu’s lap.
Lu Zhanxiu continued playing with her hair, saying nonchalantly, “No big deal. If he doesn’t go to school, then he will just be an ignorant little brat forever.”
Lu Xingguang, who by this time was charging up the stairs on his little legs, heard that remark and came running back down the stairs. Glaring at his father, he instructed the housekeeper in an urgent tone, “Quickly, get me to school now. I want to be the first to arrive at school. I want to be awarded the red scarf with three stripes, the senior leader scarf!”
His teacher had said that anyone who was made a young leader or a senior leader was deemed to have grown up. And he wanted to be a grown-up!
Suppressing her laugh, the housekeeper responded, “Yes, yes, yes.”
The Young Master was notorious in school for being the ‘problem kid.’ He got into fights with everyone, gave the teachers a lot of grief, and was always the focus of discussions at every parent-teacher meeting. But now, he was actually going for the red scarf award and the three stripes…
“Are we really not going to take him to school?” Yan Susu asked doubtfully as she watched Lu Xingguang charge out the door.
“Yep.” Nodding, Lu Zhanxiu released her onto the floor and added, “Get ready. We’re going to the office.”
“Me?”
As he watched Yan Susu pointing cluelessly at her own face, Lu Zhanxiu could not resist raising his brows and saying, “Mrs. Lu, do you see anyone else here?”
“But why would I want to go to your office…?”
“Mrs. Lu, how old are you?”
“Um…twenty-four.”
Lu Zhanxiu looked at her with compassion, as though he was feeling sorry that she should be so forgetful at her young age.
Embarrassed, Yan Susu asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Auntie Tang.”
Auntie Tang hurried forward. “Sir, you called?”
“Buy more foods that are good for the brain for Madam to eat.”
“Yes, sir.”
Wide-eyed, Yan Susu asked, “Why do I need brain food?”
Was he calling her stupid?
Lu Zhanxiu ignored her question and proceeded to change out of his clothes.
“Oh! What are you doing?” Yan Susu exclaimed in shock, covering her eyes reflexively.
Although she had seen Ling Xiusi in the nude umpteen times, she nonetheless felt embarrassed.
Lu Zhanxiu finished taking off his shirt and turned around to see her face flushed bright red, all the way to her cute little ear lobes. She was so adorable, he couldn’t resist walking towards her.
“Don’t…don’t come any closer…” Yan Susu stepped backwards repeatedly.
But Lu Zhanxiu just kept walking closer.
“I will scream if you get any closer…” Having retreated till there was nowhere else to go, Yan Susu stood upright and backed up against the wall.
Lowering his head, Lu Zhanxiu smiled devilishly. “Looks like Mrs. Lu wants very much to relive something.”
