Lu Lu and Qiao Yi finally got something from Lu Lu that they could use.
If her grandparents claimed custody, her stepmother would not stand a chance.
Song Heran explained, “Lu Lu, your grandparents are your mom and dad’s parents. They are one the closest relatives you can have.”
Lu Lu nodded as if she understood.
“Does Lu Lu know where Grandpa and Grandma live? We need their help,” questioned Qiao Yi.
Lu Lu turned her little head and continued to think.
The memories weren’t very clear, because she was still very young at the time.
Lu Lu can not only remember the memories but also see in third person anything that happened, too. This is why she thought of her grandparents.
The original girl only met with her grandparents once, and they didn’t even talk to her, so Lu Lu didn’t know where they lived.
Lu Lu shook her head. “I don’t know. I have only seen grandpa and grandma once, and I don’t know where they live.”
Lu Lu’s answer was surprising.
If her grandparents loved Lu Lu, they wouldn’t have left her with her stepmother after her parents died.
That means the grandparents didn’t care for her at all.
Song Heran could do nothing but feel bad for this little girl.
Although Song Heran’s parents also didn’t care about him when he was little, his grandparents loved him dearly.
Once, he accidentally broke his father’s vase and got beaten badly.
He ran to his grandpa’s house. When his grandpa saw his injuries, he cut off his relationship with Song Heran’s father.
Song Heran looked at Lu Lu’s cute face. It was like a freshly baked pork bun.
Lu Lu was so cute and sensible, so why would anyone hate her?
Song Heran pinched Lu Lu’s face and patted her head, “Dont worry, I’ll investigate.”
Qiao Yi also nodded. She’s already planned out what do to.
As long as she can find the grandparents, it’ll all be easy after.
Her grandparents must have been on bad terms with her mom. This also proves that Lu Lu likely has aunts or uncles.
In a household, a parent’s love can become worse due to other influences.
If this is the case, even if the grandparents weren’t alive, they can still find other relatives to help fight this lawsuit.
Seeing hope, Song Heran’s mood changed back to being happy.
He remembered that he destroyed Lu Lu’s house and that made Lu Lu pretty mad.
He took all the building blocks to the coffee table and quickly built a new one.
“Lu Lu, look. Here’s your new house. It’s way better than your last one.”
The building blocks were colorful, but Song Heran only picked a few to help contrast the colors.
For someone who took art classes in school, he was confident with his color choices.
But Lu Lu still liked her rainbow unicorn vomit.
Just when Song Heran thought Lu Lu would compliment him, Lu Lu started on her own at the side.
Lu Lu didn’t care about symmetry or colors. She just built it taller and taller and capped it with a large triangle for a roof.
Lu Lu nodded at her creation and her face looked proud of herself.
“ Brother, mine’s much better.”
“?”
Lu Lu nodded and pat her brother on the shoulder. “Brother, even though you aren’t as good as me, you can learn and improve, I’ll teach you.”
“??? Are you sure?”
Song Heran learning how to build a house using blocks was hilarious enough. Don’t even mention learning from a 3-year-old.
“Mine is much better than yours. Don’t say random stuff.”
“How does yours look better?”
Brother’s house’s roof was orange, the walls were yellow, and the house didn’t have a door. This looked like a doghouse from Crayon Shin-chan*.

And her house had all the colors and it was bigger.
Lu Lu didn’t believe her brother, so she turned to Qiao Yi and quietly asked, “Aunty, which one looks better?”
Qiao Yi just wanted to coax Lu Lu, but Song Heran’s eyes looked serious as well.
She’s afraid she wouldn’t be able to get out of this.
Just then, the phone rang.
It was her son Jiang Jiang.
“Song Heran, I have to go back. You guys have fun.”
She couldn’t have gotten out there quicker.
Lu Lu waved goodbye to Qiao Yi.
“Goodbye Lu Lu.”
Click. The heavy anti-theft door closed.
As a building gets built higher and higher, it wobbles more.
Suddenly, Song Heran came up with a plan to trick Lu Lu.
“Lu Lu, if an earthquake comes, which house will fall first?”
“What is an earthquake?” Lu Lu wasn’t paying attention.
Song Heran was surprised that she didn’t even know what an earthquake is. He explained, “An earthquake is when the ground moves and the things on the ground will shake.”
“Really? But the house is strong. Lu Lu can’t move it no matter how hard I try.”
“Really. I don’t lie.”
Lu Lu nodded. “I see.”
Song Heran asked, “Do you want to see what an earthquake is like?”
Lu Lu hasn’t seen anything like that. It sounded scary.
She replied curiously. “Yeah.”
Song Heran’s plan worked, so he tried to not give it away. “Then let’s use the table and the houses as a demo, okay?”
Lu Lu didn’t get what that meant at first, but she agreed anyway.
To Lu Lu’s surprise, Song Heran kicked the table, and the house instantly collapsed.
“Bam. The building is no more.”
