When Shen Lingshuang returned with s.h.i.+ Guang and Xiao Bai, the entire house was pitch black.
Neither of them turned on the lights as well as Xiao Bai asked softly, “Where’s daddy and mummy?”
“Probably sleeping?” Both Shen Lingshuang and s.h.i.+ Guang had an inkling of what that ‘sleeping’ meant.
However, that was not the case for Xiao Bai as he grumbled, “Why didn’t they wait for me to come back before we can all sleep together?” His greatest wish was to sleep together with his daddy and mummy.
“Cough, cough! Erm…”
Just as s.h.i.+ Guang was thinking about how to explain things to Xiao Bai, the lights in the living room were turned on. Instantly, a warm yellow light filled the entire place followed by an icy cold tension.
Seated on the sofa was a tall and well built man whose entire aura was absolutely frosty. His expression was akin to a tiger biding its time before the storm and was frighteningly chilling.
Both Shen Lingshuang and s.h.i.+ Guang were stunned.
Seeing how his daddy was still awake, Xiao Bai bolted over happily. “Daddy!”
Lu Yanzhi fondled his head before looking at Shen Lingshuang and s.h.i.+ Guang.
Shen Lingshuang rubbed at her head before acting casual. “Why are you not asleep yet?”
Did he not manage to keep her here?
She then continued asking, “Where’s Qianxun?”
Lu Yanzhi stood up from the sofa with a petrifying coldness as he looked at his mother. “Mother, could you stop doing such meaningless stuff in the future?”
“What?” Shen Lingshuang looked sideways at s.h.i.+ Guang who was biting at her lips and keeping silent, pretending to not understand.
Within her heart, Shen Lingshuang was heaving a sigh – this son of hers was way too similar to her husband at times; both of them gave off an exceptionally dominating presence.
She then harrumphed coldly and said, “If you could have what it takes to get a wife back home, I wouldn’t have to worry as such. Do you think you’re still young? Both of you have already had a child together, could you guys just stop with this merry go round and just live life happily together? You’re like your father in every way, even that nasty temper of yours. Look at how nice of a girl Qianxun is? Yet, you dumped her after she bore a child for you. Do you think that’s acceptable? Us Lus must not do something as heartless as such. You have to consider the good that this woman has as well! A woman is only a woman if she’s a little coy. Look at your father, even though he has that nasty temper, he also knows how to coax me at times…”
Lu Yanzhi’s head was hurting – this was a sign she was going to rant on forever more.
He took Xiao Bai by the hand. “Let’s go, it’s late now. You’ve got to shower and sleep.”
Looking at how her son was ignoring her and taking her grandson upstairs, Shen Lingshuang raised her pitch. “Look at that att.i.tude of yours! Whose interests do you think I’m having in my heart for doing all this?!”
She then sighed and looked at s.h.i.+ Guang. “You and Yanchen are still the best for not having me to worry. Right, is Yanchen coming to pick you up later?”
s.h.i.+ Guang’s body froze up momentarily as she blinked before smiling at Shen Lingshuang and replying calmly, “I’m not heading back tonight. I’ll just rest here.”
She had not told Lu Yanchen she had returned home at all.
Shen Lingshuang was curious. “You’re not heading back? Then is Yanchen coming over later?”
“No idea. He’s quite busy these days. Mummy, I’m a little tired. I’ll head upstairs first.” s.h.i.+ Guang did not say much as she headed up.
Shen Lingshuang frowned.
These two were practically inseparable usually – why had things changed?
Could they have quarrelled?
At that thought, Shen Lingshuang phoned Lu Yanchen. “Son, what are you doing?”
