Lu Jingjing gritted her teeth and said, “Sister-in-law is right.”
“It seems that your sister-in-law knows you quite well. What should you say to her?”
Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.
Lu Jingjing’s smile was even uglier than when she was sulking. She pursed her lips.
“Thank you, sister-in-law!”
Song Ci smiled brightly.
“You’re welcome.”
Lu Jingjing was furious and annoyed. She said stiffly, “I’m going back to work.”
“Okay.”
Lu Gan was very cold.
Lu Jingjing dared not say anything else. She turned around and left.
Lu Suo had listened to their conversation without batting an eyelid. He said to Song Yujin, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
Then, he got up and left.
“Auntie.”
He called out to Lu Jingjing politely.
When Lu Jingjing heard this, she turned around and saw Lu Suo. Since she had suffered in Lu Gan and Song Ci’s hands, she began concocting a plan. Her expression became gentle.
“Little Suo, you’re here too?”
“Yea.”
Lu Suo nodded obediently.
“I’m here to take a family photo with daddy.”
Lu Jingjing looked at her innocent little nephew. She squatted down in front of him and sighed.
“Your dad is going to start his own family. What are you going to do in the future?”
Then, she patted Lu Suo’s head and sighed again.
“My poor little nephew. In the future, if your father or Song Ci bullies you, come and look for me immediately, okay? Auntie will help you.”
Lu Suo asked in a confused tone, “Why would my father and Auntie Song bully me?”
“You are only five years old. There are some things that you still don’t understand. Song Ci is only your stepmother and Lu Gan is not your biological father. He is your uncle! You have no idea how much he likes your Auntie Song. In the future, he might abandon you for her. They would also have their own child sooner or later. That child may be your younger sibling, but the two of you are not blood-related. They would definitely favor their child more.”
Lu Suo’s face wrinkled.
This sight made Lu Jingjing happy. However, she still pretended to be distressed.
“If only your father was still here. You’ll be much happier. Song Ci will definitely brainwash your uncle, so you must be careful.”
Upon hearing that, Lu Suo appeared to be a little worried.
“Then what should I do?”
“This is your family matter. I don’t really have a say. All I can offer is my hospitality. If Song Ci wronged or hit you, come to my house. I’ll take you in.”
“Auntie, you’re so kind.”
Lu Suo said sweetly.
Lu Jingjing smiled brightly.
“Little Suo, remember to stay away from your stepmother. She’s a very scheming person. By the way, don’t tell anyone about our conversation. Otherwise, aunty will be in trouble. Okay?”
Lu Suo quickly nodded.
“So obedient.”
After saying that, Lu Jingjing stood up and left in satisfaction.
Lu Suo looked at Lu Jingjing’s back and his face slowly turned gloomy. Then, he laughed disdainfully. Why would he tell anyone about their conversation? Lu Gan would always like him and vice versa. It was a fact. The people he hated most were those who badmouth Lu Gan.
Lu Suo turned around and spotted a roll of transparent tape on the table not too far away. After thinking for a while, Lu Suo smiled. His smile was very bright and beautiful, but also scary.
Lu Jingjing had just picked up her photos and went downstairs. Lu Suo was eating candies at the front desk. She called out, “Little Suo.”
Lu Suo turned around and looked at her. He smiled and handed her some candies.
“Auntie, have some candies.”
Lu Jingjing smiled and said, “No thanks. I’ll be leaving first.”
“Then I’ll send you off.”
Lu Suo said politely.
Lu Jingjing nodded proudly and they walked out together. As they walked, she continued to plant doubts in the little boy’s mind.
“Little Suo is so obedient. Who wouldn’t like you? It’s a pity that you have a stepmother like Song Ci. She’s mean and vicious. She even bullied me before!”
Lu Suo lowered his head and kept quiet.
Lu Jingjing thought that she had scared him. The corners of her lips curled up happily. This way, Lu Suo would distance himself, resist, and be wary of Song Ci. It would be impossible for them to get along. What would Lu Gan do if Song Ci and Lu Suo got into a fight?
