Lu Yanchen’s face turned cold as he lectured Xiao Bei sternly, “Xiao Bai, who taught you to talk like that?”
Xiao Bai grumbled out softly, “Isn’t that what I heard when you were chatting with 3rd Uncle? That in our family, grandma is the silliest and most easy to trick?”
Looking at how Lu Yanchen’s gaze narrowed dangerously, Xiao Bai hid behind Shi Guang right away.
Lu Yanchen furrowed his brows. “…”
So he knows how to look for backup now? Will she help him? Hmph, I’ll deal with him in the future.
At that moment, an elegant and classy lady walked out of the house. Her blue cheongsam made her look relaxed and casual, yet not forgetting to elevate her classiness. Those crescent moon shaped eyes that were smiling out locked onto Shi Guang again as she spoke out from far away, “Shi Guang, we meet again!”
Shi Guang felt her heart stop for a second as she bowed down hurriedly. “Mrs. Lu! Hello!”
She was bearing a completely different set of feelings with her for this meeting with Mrs. Lu this time around.
The previous time, she had met her in the capacity of Lu Yanchen’s swimming coach. Naturally, Mrs. Lu would be courteous and polite to her. But this time around, she was someone who was going to marry Lu Yanchen. Would Mrs. Lu still be as agreeable as before?
In theory, the answer should be no.
Would she be like Yang Sitong and hand her a cheque, asking her to scram as far away as possible?
As Shen Lingshuang approached Shi Guang, she found that this lass looked even prettier than she had seemed the previous time around. Thinking about how she was so good at swimming as a champion while her son had water vertigo, the two of them did seem like they would have a perfect balance being together: a decent match.
The more she thought about it, the more she found herself being pleased with this future daughter in law.
She immediately bent down and helped Shi Guang up right away, smiling brightly, “You don’t have to stand on courtesy! Mrs. Lu? Call me auntie, that will do! Don’t be so polite now, let’s hurry and enter the house before we talk more!”
Shi Guang pulled out a smile; however, it was really stiff.
Why was Shen Lingshuang acting so friendly? Why did she not seem to have any intention of making things difficult for her—a girl such as herself who wasn’t befitting of their family. For a madam of a rich family, shouldn’t she despise someone like her?
Or… was she acting?
But, everything that happened next did not have Shi Guang feeling as though she was acting. She could tell that Shen Lingshuang really fancied her, and had no intention of objecting to her being together with Lu Yanchen.
Furthermore, other than Mrs. Lu and Xiao Bai, there were no one else present at the Lu’s house today.
Gradually, Shi Guang found herself feeling more comfortable bit by bit.
Xiao Bai literally could not wish for more than to be a piece of gum to stick himself to Shi Guang as he tugged onto her arms tightly while acting like a spoilt child in front of her. “Sister, grandma said that you’re going to have a swimming competition in the coming days? Can I go and watch?”
Shi Guang had just opened her mouth when Lu Yanchen rejected for her. “No.”
“Why?”
“You’ve got school.”
Xiao Bai pursed his lips and looked at Shi Guang pitifully. “Sister, you want Xiao Bai to go cheer you on, right?”
“But, you’ve got to go to school on that day?”
“Well, I COULD have a stomach-ache on that day!”
That was his excuse for skipping school.
Shi Guang did not know to cry or to laugh as she eyed Lu Yanchen, who was glaring at her coldly with a hint of threat within them. It was as though he was saying that she was dead meat if she agreed to it.
Indeed, it wasn’t good for children to skip school without any proper reasons.
She thought for a bit before replying, “I will have many more competitions in the future. If you can’t come and cheer me on this time around, you can do it for the next time, alright?”
Xiao Bai hesitated for a moment before nodding his head eventually.
He tugged at Shi Guang’s hand. “Then sister must like me the MOST!”
Elated, Shi Guang replied, “Sure!”
Young Master Lu who was ignored: “…”
