Chapter 185: Who Are You?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Carrying her bag, Lu Ning brought Lu Jingzhi around the various streets and alleys.
Some of the places which Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi had mentioned had been rebuilt, the streets were brand new, and some shops were no longer at their original addresses.
However, a few of them were still there. Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi searched around for about four places—two of them were no longer in business, while the other two still were.
Needless to say, the food from the long-established stores were delicious. The two of them ate and shopped until afternoon.
Emerging from an alley, Lu Ning wanted to bring Lu Jingzhi to their next destination; she had been standing there for a good five minutes, trying to figure out the directions, when she heard someone call her name.
Without even turning around, Lu Ning knew who it was. She subconsciously turned away and pulled Lu Jingzhi along, wanting to slip away.
However, there were too many people around and the two of them were caught before they could take more than two steps.
“Little Ning, why are you moving away? Didn’t you hear me calling you?”
Helplessly, Lu Ning turned to face Shen Guang.
“I heard you.”
Shen Guang: “… At least you’re honest.”
Without giving her a chance to speak, Shen Guang spoke up again and asked,
“When did you arrive? Why didn’t you tell me so that I could bring you around?”
Lu Ning immediately raised her hand in refusal. “There’s no need, I’m just bringing my brother around…”
Lu Ning wanted to mention the compet.i.tion, but in the next moment she swallowed her words.
“I’m just bringing my brother here to play. I’ll be leaving tomorrow.”
Only then, did Shen Guang look down towards Lu Jingzhi, who was beside Lu Ning.
The boy stared at him, his eyes big as saucers. Although his facial features had yet to be fully developed, his face was good-looking, and his eyebrows were very similar to Lu Ning’s.
Lu Jingzhi looked at Shen Guang and politely greeted him, “h.e.l.lo, Uncle.”
Shen Guang grinned, his eyes curving into crescents. “h.e.l.lo, how about Uncle bring you to someplace fun? There’ll be a lot of toys there.”
Since Shen Guang could not do anything about Lu Ning, he took the initiative to pander to Lu Jingzhi instead.
He’s a child, at that age he has to like toys. And ifhe wants to go, Lu Ning will follow.
Shen Guang smiled happily, thinking that his plan was really good.
However…
“I’m not going.”
His straightforward rejection was exactly the same as Lu Ning’s.
Shen Guang:
He looked at Lu Ning, then at him. Biological siblings, indeed.
Lu Ning looked at him, holding back a chuckle. “Uncle Shen, don’t let us hold you back. I’m sure you have matters to attend to, and we also have something later.”
Hearing that, Shen Guang’s eyes lit up. “You have something later! Well, then why don’t I send you?”
Lu Ning:
Lu Jingzhi: ‘
Before Lu Ning could refuse, someone walked over from behind Shen Guang and glanced at Lu Ning.
“Dad, who’s this?”
Shen Guang turned to him and barked, “Go back and wait. It’s none of your business.”
Shen Mu was a head taller than Shen Guang, and looked to be the same age as Lu Ning.
As Shen Guang did not say anything, Shen Mu looked directly at Lu Ning. “Who are you?”
Lu Ning looked at him and smiled. “I’m just pa.s.sing by. I have something on, so I’ll leave first.
As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled Lu Jingzhi along and turned to walk away.
“Hey! Little Ning! Wait!”
Shen Guang was about to hurry after them when Shen Mu abruptly grabbed him. “Dad, why are you chasing after her? Don’t tell me you…”
Shen Mu scrutinized Shen Guang from head to toe, then turned to look at Lu
Ning’s shrinking back.
Then, he muttered to himself, “Nah, I guess not. She probably won’t like you.”
When Shen Guang realized what he meant, he slapped him on the back of the head.. “You brat! What nonsense are you spouting?! If you see her in the future, make sure to treat her well! If my business is ruined because of you, you’ll hear no end of it! Do you understand?!”
