When they arrived at her room, Su Ran was baffled when neither the father nor the son showed any signs of leaving.
Do you want to have spicy and numbing crawl fish?
That was Su Han who asked.
Hearing that, Su Ran busted out laughing at her sons there-is-nothing-that-an-order-of-crawl-fish-cant-solvelook.
Psst. Theres no need. The production team had provided us with free dinner.
Then do you want to go for a walk?
Why would anyone go for a walk in the middle of the night? This was Lu Shao.
He turned over to Su Ran after saying that and asked, Do you have your own room?
No, I share a room with Teacher Li Yan. She was the one whom I ntioned before. She is the music teacher whom I travelled with, explained Su Ran.
Li Yan sent her a WeChat ssage this afternoon that she would be visiting an old schoolmate tonight as there was no work and she would not be coming back tonight.
Su Ran seed to have picked up a shred of disappointnt on Lu Shao with her explanation.
Before Su Ran could give that too much thought, Lu Shao said again, Then dont stay up too late. My room is right next to yours. Let know if you need anything.
Having said that, he gave Su Han, who had no intention of leaving, a look and frowned. Then he said in the most solemn tone, Pick up your suitcase. Lets go.
What Su Han really wanted to say to him was: You be on your way. I am staying with my Mom!
But, considering that Su Ran didnt have the room to herself, he had no choice but to give up on that idea. He followed Lu Shao to their room next door with a long face.
Its so late already. Dont go bother your mother. Everything can wait till tomorrow. I will take care of any of her problems, said Lu Shao patiently for a change when he saw Su Han starting straight at the room door.
Su Ran, upon hearing that, pursed his lips and also, for a change, did not rebut the mans words.
The very next second, however, Lu Shao added, Besides, its bedti for you already.
Adolescent boys between the age of 12 to 15 should have 8 hours of sleep a day and best to go to bed before 9 PM.
Thats what Lu Shao had read on the web.
They were already an hour late.
Hearing Lu Shaos words, Su Han was displeased all of a sudden.
What does my bedti have to do with you? said Su Han unhappily and with a frown. After a short pause, he said, Besides, school is out right now!
Oh? Why do I recall that schools not out for another two days? rebutted Lu Shao while raising his brows.
He seed to have looked over in the direction of the room next to them and there was a sense of threat in his look.
Hrm! So what? Why arent you going to bed then? Su Ran retorted as he stared at Lu Shao as though he was a thief of sort.
Once their eyes t, the two already knew what each other had in mind.
The atmosphere, for a while there, was suffocating.
So you dont want to sleep, right? After the two had been staring at each other for a while, Lu Shao suddenly put down the cup in his hand and got up from the couch.
What does that have to do with.
SMACK!
A book was tossed in front of him before he was done talking.
Advanced microeconomics?
The heck?!
Su Hans eyes widened as he looked at the book in front of him.
Then he heard Lu Shao said in a very moderate pace, Since you dont want to go to bed, you should make good use of your ti on sothing aningful.
And this is your idea of aningful? Su Han picked up the book and asked rudely. Pray tell, what is the value of this to a high school freshman?
Freshman? Yeah, that is a bit early. But you should know so of it anyway.
Besides, said Lu Shao as he gave Su Han a weightless look. This is your mothers idea.
Like heck Id believe you!
Su Han wanted to retort but, when he saw the look on Lu Shao, his instinct told him that Lu Shao was telling the truth.
Finish reading pages 1 through 20 before you go to bed. You can ask if you have any questions, said Lu Shao as he looked at Su Han.
Truth was, he brought with him other books on entry level economics, common economics terminologies, basic economics knowledge, etc. Nevertheless, the stuck-up look on the boy made him not want to pull the others out just yet.
