Lu Beichen wished he could spank his mischievous son right there on the table, but...
He smiled and gestured to the chair next to him for the little woman coming over, yet she blatantly ignored him and sat beside Lu Sinian instead.
"Nian Nian, this is the milk you like to drink, right? You should have it with every al. You’re too thin, and it makes Sister Tongtong feel sorry for you!" she said, starting to pile vegetables into his bowl with her chopsticks.
Lu Sinian looked at his dad with even more pride, replying with a quiver of mock grievance, "It’s all because Mr. Lu wronged my mom, caused her to give birth to early, which is why I’m underdeveloped!" He turned his gaze to Ji Niandong, tears glistening in his eyes, "Sister Tongtong, you have no idea, classmates laugh at , calling a little dwarf who won’t grow! That’s why I fight with them, but when the teacher calls Mr. Lu over, he never goes and just waits to reprimand at ho, saying it’s my fault!"
Poor thing! She rembered, Lu Beichen indeed told her that the child was born prematurely!
Ji Niandong instinctively cast a reproachful glance at Lu Beichen!
He said the mother didn’t want the child, so why couldn’t he be a bit nicer to his child?
Lu Beichen pressed his brow, calmly saying, "Lu Sinian, let your dad tell you now, it’s ti to eat properly!"
He smiled at his son, his mouth curving.
Lu Sinian knew very well that if he didn’t stop, the Great Demon would truly lose his temper.
Hurriedly, he bowed his head in grievance, shoveling food into his mouth without a word, swallowing a bite before cautiously asking Ji Niandong, "Sister Tongtong, if I’m not mistaken, the milk I put in the fridge when I left had a production date of June 22, isn’t it expired now?"
His eyes were evasive, seeming afraid to ask such risky questions that seed best left unasked. Indeed, when dad was alone with her, she was cautious and afraid of others mocking her, disliking her.
But this child has an amazingly good mory!
She reached out to pet his little head, "Last ti I realized the milk was almost expired, so when Sister Tongtong went shopping, she got a new batch."
"Sister Tongtong got it specially for ?"
His surprised delight made Ji Niandong’s heart skip a beat!
She had noticed the milk was nearing expiration while preparing Lu Beichen’s honey milk for sobering up, and although she didn’t know when Lu Sinian would return, she still bought fresh milk for the kid, hoping he’d have sothing to drink when he ca back.
She nodded, "Of course, this milk is just for you!"
Lu Sinian quickly inserted a straw and smilingly drank the milk, sticking close to Ji Niandong.
Watching this scene, Lu Beichen felt like he’d beco an outsider!
Oh well, seeing them getting along so well, he should be happy!
He picked up his chopsticks to savor the little woman’s culinary skills, amazed that she managed to make different dishes every day, each one beyond delicious.
"I really think we should open a restaurant for you!" Lu Beichen genuinely spoke as they chatted.
Ji Niandong finally gave him a smile, "If it’s your restaurant, it’d probably close down soon!"
"No way!" Lu Sinian piped in with a greasy mouth, "Sister Tongtong’s cooking is way too delicious, better than Sister-in-law Lu’s at grandfather’s! But Sister Tongtong, don’t work in Mr. Lu’s restaurant, cooking for custors every day would exhaust you!"
He swallowed the food in his mouth with satisfaction, earnestly telling Ji Niandong, "Seeing Sister Tongtong overworked, it would make feel so distressed!"
Lu Beichen sighed softly, this kid really is an expert at going against him; his duplicitous personality, who does it take after?
