“No… that’s definitely not what I ant.”
Seeing her niece’s sad eyes, Lu Yan was helpless.
She truly wanted to make the promise, but her identity was too special for her to do that.
She hadn’t returned to her ho for a long ti and had spent all the ti wandering around the world.
Lu Yan’s ho was on a secret island in the southern part of the Pacific Ocean.
Equipped with advanced anti-spy devices, it couldn’t be detected by any reconnaissance aircraft or boats.
The island was heavily guarded, ready for war at any mont.
The island was safe, but she had too many enemies to return safely to her ho with two kids.
Her dad even didn’t want her to stay in China for long with the twins.
If she took the kids out for vacation, her dad would probably scold her to death.
Even her sister wouldn’t agree to it, right?
Lu Yan felt torn when Pudding asked her the question.
“Pudding, you’re very smart. I’ll give you a brief explanation and you’ll understand.”
“Go ahead please.” Pudding could see that her auntie had so secrets that she couldn’t say.
“You know I’m very rich, right?”
“Yes.”
“Do you know where I got the money?”
“You earned it,” Pudding answered without hesitation.
Lu Yan: “…”
“No. I want you to consider how I earned the money?” Lu Yan asked.
Pudding was stuck. Indeed, she only knew her auntie was very, very rich but wasn’t clear about her job.
It was beyond the comprehension of a three-year-old child.
“Like my dad, you must be doing big business with your own company or business group.” Pudding thought her auntie must be a magnate since she could transfer 10 million yuan to her so casually.
“Ahem… You’re right to say that… I indeed do business, big business. But my business is very special and has made many enemies in the past years. Those bad guys always try to catch , so I have to be on the run… I haven’t returned to my ho for a long ti now. I’m afraid I can’t ensure your safety if I bring you and Little Bean to my ho.”
“Oh… I see, so that’s what’s troubling you.” Pudding seed to understand.
At this mont, Little Bean ca back with several popsicles.
“Co on, let’s eat. Two for each of us. Mom was not in the room and didn’t see take these popsicles. Hahahaha! How lucky am I?” Little Bean was happy that she could steal so many popsicles.
“Won’t you get a stomach ache after eating so much?” Lu Yan glanced at Little Bean in worry.
“Don’t worry. She’s fine no matter what she eats.” Pudding glanced at Little Bean in disgust.
“You sound as if I’d eat anything except for dog poop.” Little Bean was exasperated.
“Wouldn’t you?” Pudding asked wittily.
“Qin Zhaozhao. I don’t want to argue with you with Auntie here. We’re happy, so don’t start a fight, okay?”
“Hahaha…” The sisters’ strange bickering made Lu Yan laugh out loud.
Leaning her head on Lu Yan’s shoulder, Little Bean ate the popsicle and played with her cellphone.
Then, she sent a video-chat invitation to Su Yu.
With An gone, Su Yu was alone at ho.
He wanted to cook sothing but didn’t know how to. There was lots of food in the fridge, but he didn’t want to eat any of it.
Maybe he just didn’t want to eat alone.
Seeing Little Bean’s video chat, he said cheerfully, “Little Bean, I’ll take you out to eat, okay?”
“What’s up?” Little Bean was puzzled.
“I’ve not had supper yet. There’s no food at ho. I’m starving,” Su Yu complained to the kid in the video.
“That’s easy. Co and eat in my ho.” Little Bean licked on the popsicle.
“It’s not a good idea. There’re lots of people in your ho. Your… um… auntie is also in your ho, right?” Su Yu said.
“Yeah. She’s here.” Little Bean imdiately turned the cara to Lu Yan and zood in on her face.
At this mont, there was nothing that could explain how awkward Su Yu was feeling.
