Song Yujin handed some grapes to Lu Suo. Then, he took a closer look at his workbook.
Despite being reluctant, Lu Suo got everything right.
Song Yujin nodded and took a seat.
“What took you so long? I’ve already finished my homework.”
Lu Suo pouted as he ate a grape.
“It’s nothing.”
Song Yujin did not give an answer.
Lu Suo was not really bothered. He thought that Song Yujin just took a long time washing the grapes.
Song Yujin was relieved when he saw Lu Suo eating happily. He picked up his book and began to read.
‘Everyone has a gift now. Good. Luckily, there are only four people in this family. Otherwise, things will be even more complicated.’
Around nine o’clock, Song Ci came over to help the children bathe. It had been a while since she had done this.
Song Yujin and Lu Suo felt a sense of nostalgia.
Lu Suo said with a proud grin on his face, “Mommy, we showered by ourselves when you’re not around.’
Song Ci praised, “Good job.”
Lu Suo’s smile became wider. His eyes were curved like crescent moons.
Song Yujin asked curiously, “How long will you be staying this time?”
Song Ci replied, “I’m not sure, but I’ll be around for at least one or two months.”
“Really?”
Lu Suo was elated. He sprayed some water at Song Yujin playfully.
Song Yujin immediately avoided the water with a disdainful expression.
“Yes.”
Song Ci nodded.
“Then we can celebrate the new year and Chinese New Year together! That’s great!”
Lu Suo’s parents were no longer around but at least he still had Lu Gan, Song Ci, and Song Yujin. He was satisfied with this family and would do anything to protect them.
Lu Suo stretched out his foam-covered hands to hug Song Ci. However, Song Yujin grabbed him.
“You’re wet. Don’t mess up the place. Behave yourself.”
Lu Suo looked at his body and realized that Song Yujin was right. If he hugged Song Ci, her pajamas would be soaked. So, he turned around and hugged Song Yujin instead. It should be no big deal since the latter was also wet.
Song Yujin immediately displayed a disgusted and helpless expression. Despite that, he did not push Lu Suo away.
Song Ci was amused by this scene. The two children were really cute!
Once Lu Suo and Song Yujin had finished bathing, they changed into their pajamas. After that, Song Ci brought them to Lu Gan’s room.
Lu Gan was sitting on the bed. He had already showered earlier.
Lu Suo wasted no time and immediately climbed onto the bed. His face was brimming with joy. It had been a long time since they all slept together. For a child, even a week passed really slowly!
Anyway, Lu Suo leaned against Lu Gan and soon fell asleep.
The next day, Song Ci sent both children to school. Subsequently, she went to the mall.
‘What should I buy for them?’
Song Ci had sunglasses and a mask on. After looking at various different stores, a delicate-looking watch caught her attention.
The watch had a starry theme. From six in the morning to six in the evening, a thin layer of silvery white sunlight would cover the background. Meanwhile, from six in the evening to six in the morning, the background would turn dark blue while emitting a faint light.
Song Ci was intrigued by the watch’s design. Lu Gan had always preferred to look at the time through watches. Hence, this gift should be perfect for him.
‘I hope he’ll think of me whenever he checks the time.’
