Xiao Qing was at a loss for words. She rummaged through her bag and pulled out the itinerary Tan Biyang had given her. After looking at it for a while, she said, "The day after tomorrow, once I finish filming, I’ll go with you to pick up Xiaobao, okay?"
Dabao agreed without a second thought. He had not seen Xiaobao for a few days and missed her a lot.
"Then you’ll still need to go with Mommy to the set tomorrow."
Dabao thought of that woman with her face covered in makeup and inwardly resisted, but then it occurred to him that such a woman might harm Mommy at any moment, so he agreed.
Meanwhile, at the same time, at the Lu Mansion
Ye Han and Lu Zhiyuan finally came back from outside.
They hurriedly tried to run upstairs to see if Xiaobao had woken up from her nap, but as they reached the living room, they saw two figures, one big and one small, sitting on the sofa watching TV quietly and harmoniously.
Ye Han wanted to walk over, but Lu Zhiyuan pulled her back and, after giving her a meaningful glance, urged her to walk outside with him.
Lu Jinyang heard footsteps but no one calling his name, thinking it was Nanny Zhang preparing dinner, so he didn’t say anything.
Xiaobao had woken up not long after falling asleep in his arms. Upon waking, she didn’t cry or make a fuss but affectionately blew in his eye again. Unlike the first time, he wasn’t as resistant; on the contrary, something softened inside his heart.
Since he was blind and naturally couldn’t play games with her, he brought her to the living room, had Nanny Zhang switch to a cartoon channel for her, and washed some grapes to put on the table.
The big and the small one competently started eating the grapes one by one.
Lu Jinyang occasionally handed her a grape, and if Xiaobao’s mouth wasn’t empty yet, she would stuff the grape into Lu Jinyang’s mouth. At first, he refused, but eventually, he couldn’t resist her persistent cajoling and accepted his fate, eating them.
In the courtyard, Nanny Zhang recounted all the events of the afternoon to the elderly couple. After listening to her, Ye Han almost couldn’t hold back an exclamation of surprise—her aloof son had actually done such things!
"Old man, in the past five years, I’ve finally done one thing right," Ye Han said.
Lu Zhiyuan’s eyes twinkled with a smile as he looked at her: "When have you ever done anything wrong?"
Ye Han shot him a joking glance, while Nanny Zhang covered her mouth to suppress her laughter.
"Aunt Han, Uncle Lu~"
A sweet voice came from outside. All three turned their heads and saw Lin Xiaoxiao come in, each of her hands carrying health supplements.
"What were you guys talking about that made you laugh so happily?"
Upon seeing Lin Xiaoxiao, the smiles on the faces of Ye Han and Lu Zhiyuan faded somewhat, but they didn’t lose their composure and manages to keep smiling.
"Xiaoxiao, why did you come at this time?" Ye Han was always straightforward in her speech. Everyone was used to it, so they didn’t think there was anything amiss.
Lin Xiaoxiao, with a smile, handed the items she was carrying to Nanny Zhang, "Oh, I came especially to have a meal here."
"Look at you~ Come on, let’s go inside and talk."
After Ye Han and Lin Xiaoxiao went inside, Lu Zhiyuan’s smile fully disappeared from his face.
Since the accident with Lu Jinyang, the only girl who often came to visit was Lin Xiaoxiao. Of course, Tan Biyang had also come, but they did not let her in.
Every time Lin Xiaoxiao came here, she would talk to Lu Jinyang for a bit. Lu Jinyang wasn’t too cold towards her and would occasionally reply a word or two. Read complete version only at NoveI★Fire.net
For Mr. and Mrs. Lu Zhiyuan, this was extremely rare. Especially after learning that Lin Xiaoxiao had never had a boyfriend, they started harboring the idea of arranging a marriage between Lu Jinyang and Lin Xiaoxiao.
Last year, under Lu Jinyang’s silence, the two families tacitly agreed on the marriage of these two young people.
