Looking at his son with his face twitching, Lu Shao looked very amused. Regardless, he still “rescued” him.
“Do you still need to put makeup on?” He asked Su Ran.
“Oh, yes.
“Wait for me. It will only take me 10 minutes.” Having said that, Su Ran headed into the bedroom.
Even though Su Ran had been suffering from “cancer of laziness” lately and her idea of “makeup” limited only to penciling in her brows, she, however, would be taking her son to his examinations today and would be running into other mothers. Its best that she applied some real makeup on.
Looking at Su Ran walking inside, Lu Shao got up and cleaned up the bowls and plates on the table as he glanced over at Su Han.
“Bring the rest into the kitchen,” said Lu Shao.
It was just final examinations. Lu Shao didn’t feel that Su Han required any special treatments just for that.
When they were done cleaning up, they figured that there would be a lot of parents outside the school today and decided to walk to school from their area.
Su Ran was worried all over again by the time they’ve arrived at Su Han’s school.
“Son, you should check it one more time. Do you have enough stationaries with you? Do you have 2B pencil?”
“Don’t worry. I have them,” said Su Han.
“Mmm. Good.” Su Ran nodded, then said, “Don’t be nervous, alright?”
“I’m not nervous. You are the one who is nervous,” said Su Han in a low voice as he lifted his brows.
Looking at the nervous woman, Su Han suddenly didn’t find her annoying any more. In fact, he was a little happy?
Su Ran patted her son on his head upon hearing that.
“I know I am nervous. Good luck with your examinations, alright?”
“Okay.”
What he really wanted to say was: What is there to be nervous about?
Besides, this was just the final examinations. What was she going to do when he went for the high school and college entrance examinations?
Su Han, however, did not say that out loud.
Looking at Su Ran, he took a second to glance over at Lu Shao and said, “Alright, I’m going in. It’s cold outside. You two should head home.”
Having said that, Su Han waved his hand and walked inside the school.
Looking at her son being cool and thoughtful, Su Ran couldn't help but smiled.
“I noticed that Su Han has your personality,” said Su Ran as she turned, looked over to Lu Shao, and blinked at him.
“Isn’t that a good thing?” Lu Shao lifted his brows upon hearing that.
“No, that’s great,” said Su Ran with a smile.
Upon hearing that, Lu Shao, too, smiled.

“Ah, Daddy Su Han and Mommy Su Han, you, too, are dropping Su Han off for his examinations?” Mother Du WenTao walked over to the two of them when she spotted Lu Shao and Su Han.
“You guys are here early,” said Su Ran to Zhou Qin.
“Our kid is a hand full. Figured we’d drop him off early so he wouldn’t tell me he had forgotten this and that,” said Mother Du WenTao.
“Oh right, are you guys coming back in the afternoon or you are just going to wait here,” asked Mother Du WenTao again.
Su Ran gave her an awkward smile when she heard that.
“Well, I wanted to wait here……” But it was so cold today.
Mother Du WenTao, too, smiled when she heard that.
“A new shop opened up over there. I went there over the weekend and they are already opened for the day. We can get a private room and wait there,” suggested Mother Du WenTao.
“What kind of a shop?” asked Su Ran.
“Mala tang. The format was quite creative and tastes quite good. We can even have the kids join us for lunch after their morning examinations,” said Mother Du WenTao.
Creative?
Su Ran didn’t care too much about that.
The words mala tang, however, made her eyes beamed.
That was what she had been craving lately!
“Did you guys drive here?” asked Mother Du WenTao as she looked over at Su Han and Lu Shao.
“Um, no, we walked.”
They thought they were quite close and, the walk would also relax their son, em, alright, Su Ran herself.
Now she regretted a little.
Luckily, the shop that Zhou Qin mentioned was not far from the some, just some 200 ~ 300 meters down the street.
