Song Yujin thought to himself, ‘Since Lu Suo had given his apple to Song Ci, I might as well give mine to Lu Gan. Otherwise, he’ll be left out.”
When they reached home, everyone went to their own bedrooms.
While Song Ci was putting her apple away, she heard a knock on the door.
“Come in!”
Song Yujin entered.
“What’s wrong?”
Song Ci was confused.
Song Yujin said in a low voice, “I want to discuss something with you.”
Song Ci nodded. They sat together on the bed and she held his hand.
“Go on.”
Song Yujin had a very serious expression on his face. He glanced at the apple that was placed beside a table.
“Our teacher gave each of us an apple today. Since Lu Suo has given his apple to you, can I give mine to Lu Gan?”
Upon hearing this, Song Ci laughed out loud.
“Of course. It’s your apple. You can make the decision.”
“Originally, I planned to give you my apple when we get home but Little Suo beat me to it. If I still gave mine to you, Lu Gan will be left out. He’ll feel sad, right?”
Song Yujin was afraid that Song Ci would be jealous if he gave his apple to Lu Gan. Therefore, he wanted to discuss this matter with his sister first.
The little boy sighed in his heart. If only he had two apples, then none of this would have happened.
It was really difficult to balance this family’s relationship.
Song Ci did not expect Song Yujin to think so much. She hugged and kissed him on the forehead.
“So this means you like me more, right?”
Song Yujin did not respond. He had always been awkward around Song Ci.
To be honest, Song Yujin was unsure of his feelings. He only knew that Song Ci was his priority.
Song Ci liked it when Song Yujin acted this way. Most of the time, he was too serious and mature for his age.
What Song Yujin experienced under the care of “Song Ci” was horrendous. It caused Song Ci’s heart to ache whenever she thought about it. She only hoped that he would be happy moving forward.
Song Ci lowered her head and kissed Song Yujin on the cheek. The latter had a disdainful expression on his face, but he did not push her away. In fact, upon closer inspection, one could see that he was trying to hide a smile.
“I won’t be upset if you give your apple to Lu Gan. Go ahead. He’ll be very happy.”
Song Yujin nodded. Since Song Ci agreed, there were no problems.
“I’m glad that you’re getting along so well with your brother-in-law. Now, the number of people who love you has increased.”
Song Ci hugged Song Yujin and continued, “I’m an actress. Sometimes, I have to leave home for a long time. I can’t stay by your side all the time. However, you don’t have to worry. Your brother-in-law will always be around. He’ll treat you the way I do. Thus, I don’t mind the two of you getting closer. Besides, you’re sensible, handsome, and cute. Nobody can resist you.”
