Chapter 97: extra 2
Chapter 97: extra 2
Lu Boxuan was now three years old.
After going through the soft and adorable infant stage where you could do whatever you wanted with them, and the fun stage of learning to talk and walk, Lu Boxuan had finally entered the legendary stage where everyone hated him, the little devil stage.
Last Monday, Lu Boxuan took Su Ran's lipstick and painted the heads of all the people in his brother's textbook red.
Last Tuesday, Lu Boxuan scooped a cup of water from the toilet for his dad, and it was a good thing the water was blue.
Last Wednesday, Lu Boxuan beat up his nephew, the son of boss Lu. When the adults came, he was still lying on the ground pretending to be pitiful.
Last Thursday, Lu Boxuan tore up Lu Shao's documents and blamed it on the family dog.
Last Friday, Lu Boxuan this little kid threw all his toys on Lu Shao and Su Ran's bed, and very cleverly "covered the toys with a quilt".
……
Su Ran had been thinking about how to "deal" with that little brat Lu Boxuan for his recent bad behaviors. However, she had been so busy lately that she had to put this matter aside for the time being.
When Lu Boxuan was one year old, Su Ran received her first music award after coming to this world.When Lu Boxuan was two years old, Su Ran became one of the most popular musicians of her time.
Tomorrow, Su Ran was about to welcome her most important concert.
So, Little Lu Boxuan could only be temporarily left to his father and older brother to look after.
"Lu Boxuan!"
In the hotel suite, Su Han, who was sitting to the side, scolded Lu Boxuan, who was currently lying on the sofa and trying to pull down a flower from the curtains.
Hearing the voice, Lu Shao also moved his gaze from the document in his hand and looked over here.
"Lu Boxuan, this isn't home." Lu Shao said coldly, his tone carrying a warning. Recently, this kid seemed to have developed a hobby of destroying the house.
If it were someone else, they would have probably chickened out when faced with the warning from the head of the Lu family, but Lu Boxuan wouldn't. Upon hearing Lu Shao's words, Lu Boxuan's movements seemed to pause for a moment, but only for a second, and then he continued to relentlessly pull at the flower, using all his might to tear it down.
"Su Han." Lu Shao called out to Su Han.
"What a pain." Su Han frowned, put away his phone, stood up, and grabbed Lu Boxuan, ready to pull him down. Who would have known that when he pulled, Lu Boxuan would grip the curtains even tighter.
"Let go, this isn't home, do you hear me? Lu Boxuan." Su Han said unceremoniously.
"It's our family's!" Lu Boxuan roared in dissatisfaction. His face turned red from straining too hard.
This hotel belonged to their family! He learned this when he heard his father and Uncle Zhou talking!
Hearing Lu Boxuan's words that were still a bit unclear, Su Han's mouth twitched. Is this little brat so smart now?
Why wasn't he this smart when Su Ran asked him to memorize his own house number before?
"Just because it's your family's, you can tear it down?" Su Han gritted his teeth, finally using up the last bit of his patience. With one forceful pull, he dragged the person down. But just then, he almost pulled the curtains down.
"Lu Boxuan!" Su Han roared again.
The moment Su Han put him on the ground, Lu Boxuan's entire face wrinkled up. It seemed like he took two seconds to prepare, and the next moment, the little brat sat on the ground and burst into tears. His tearful appearance was so pitiful.
At first, Lu Shao and Su Han would get nervous when they saw this kid like this. After that, she became numb.
No, rather than saying it was numbness, it would be more accurate to say that it was seeing through. Where is the real crying, this kid is just pretending.
Apart from his face shape and mouth, which were more like Lu Shao's, Lu Boxuan's other facial features were more like Su Ran's, especially his eyes. Therefore, every time Lu Shao wanted to teach the boy a lesson, as long as he looked at the other party's aggrieved and pitiful appearance, Father Lu couldn't bring himself to do it.
Su Han was about the same. After a few times, it seemed like Lu Boxuan also understood this pattern, so whenever he did something bad or encountered something that made him unhappy, this kid would start to pretend to cry.
Tried and tested, and it had never failed. At this moment, Lu Shao frowned slightly as he watched Lu Boxuan throwing a tantrum on the ground.
"We can't spoil him like this anymore," Su Ran said.
Seemingly finally annoyed by Lu Boxuan's fuss, Lu Shao simply put away the documents, stood up, and headed straight to the study next door. Before leaving, Lu Shao didn't forget to drop a sentence: "Let him."
Upon hearing this, Su Han raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lu Boxuan with equal impatience.
"Then I'll go do my homework too." Su Han stood up and said. As he passed by, he glanced at Lu Boxuan on the ground with indifference.
Lu Boxuan: !
Why is it a little different from before?
Lu Boxuan opened his eyes wide, looked at the direction of the study room with a confused face, and then looked at Su Han's departing figure. Lu Boxuan was stunned for a moment, and then he started crying again the next second.
Finally, after taking two steps, Su Han turned back with an annoyed look on his face.
"Shut up." Su Han glanced at Lu Boxuan on the ground with great disdain and roared out two words. In the end, he bent down, grabbed the little suspenders on Lu Boxuan's pants, and lifted him up.
"Go wash your face, and then we'll leave," Su Han said coldly. They were about to leave to pick up Su Ran.
This kid was too dirty to take out. Probably knowing that it was time to go find Mom, Lu Boxuan stopped crying this time and ran towards the bathroom with his short legs in a very cooperative manner. He didn't forget to take the small stool that was specially prepared for him when he left.
……
When Lu Shao drove the two children to the performance hall, Su Ran's rehearsal had not yet ended.
The woman in the center of the stage was currently playing the last song of the rehearsal. Although Su Ran was not wearing a gorgeous performance dress, she was only wearing a more convenient dress. However, the stage lights fell on the piano and Su Ran, and it was still beautiful and moving.
Listening to the piano music surrounding his ears, Lu Shao's gaze grew increasingly gentle. In the past, Su Ran's piano playing had a calming, immersive power, but in recent years, Lu Shao could sense a change in her music.
How should he put it? It was still the same soul-stirring style, but it seemed that Su Ran's music now contained many more insights into life, as well as a heartwarming feeling.
……
After the song ended, Su Ran came back to her senses from her state of complete immersion and only then did she see the father and two sons waiting for her below the stage.
"Have you been waiting long?" Su Ran asked as she walked over.
"Not long." Lu Shao said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Su Ran also hooked up the corner of her mouth. Looking at Lu Boxuan, who was sleeping on Su Han's lap, Su Ran raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
"What happened to him?" Su Ran asked.
This kid was usually at his peak at this time, even if you pressed him down on the bed, he would never sleep obediently. What happened to him this time? He actually fell asleep?
"Cried himself to sleep." Lu Shao said succinctly.
𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟
Upon hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but chuckle. Needless to say, she had already guessed what had happened.
She looked at Lu Boxuan with some heartache and some amusement. She looked at Lu Shao and Su Han again and said, "You've worked hard."
Su Ran had a deep understanding of how much annoying Lu Boxuan was now.
"Let's go back and sleep." Su Ran said, preparing to pick up Lu Boxuan, but Lu Shao stopped her.
"I'll do it." Lu Shao said, taking the lead and lifting Lu Boxuan up.
“Waaah——” Lu Boxuan seemed to have woken up at this time. As if sensing Su Ran's presence, Lu Boxuan "struggled" to half-open his eyes. The moment he saw Su Ran, his eyes seemed to light up.
"Mommy, hug me~" Lu Boxuan wanted to snuggle up to Su Ran the moment he saw her.
Unfortunately, Lu Shao caught him. Lu Boxuan seemed to be dissatisfied and kicked his legs. Although his resistance was futile, he still tried his best to move closer to Su Ran.
"Mommy, this is for you." Lu Boxuan stretched out his little hand in front of Su Ran and said.
"Hmm? What are you going to give Mom?" Su Ran asked, raising an eyebrow.
"A gift."
As he spoke, Lu Boxuan opened his small fleshy hand in Su Ran's palm. As Lu Boxuan opened his hand, Su Ran finally saw the unidentified object in his palm that he had been clutching the entire way, which was now soaked with his sweat.
"What is this?" Su Ran asked, her lips twitching as she looked at the lump. She tried to be patient.
“Fafa.”
"Flowers?"
“Uh-huh, send, send it to you.”
If her son hadn't told her, Su Ran wouldn't have thought that the lump in his palm was a flower. Su Ran pulled open the soggy thing and finally saw the rough shape of a flower.
"Where did this come from?" Su Ran asked, looking at the father and son beside her.
Why does this look a little familiar?
Seeing the "flowers" in Lu Boxuan's hands, Su Han was also speechless.
"He tore it off the curtain in the hotel room." Su Han said with a headache. He hadn't noticed before, but the little brat had actually pulled down the flower-shaped cloth from the curtain, and the key was that he had been pinching it tightly all the way.
When Su Han said this, Su Ran also recalled that the curtains in their room seemed to be of this pattern.
"Lu Boxuan!" Su Ran turned her head, originally also wanting to teach this little guy a lesson. Looking at Lu Boxuan's sparkling eyes and his appearance as if he was seeking praise, Su Ran couldn't bear it.
“Lu Boxuan, if you want flowers, you can wait until you’re older and make them yourself, or you can ask your dad to buy them for you,” Su Ran sighed and looked at her youngest son with a “serious” expression. “From now on, you’re not allowed to just randomly take things apart, okay?”
On the way back, regardless of how much Lu Boxuan could understand, Su Ran held him in her arms and very seriously gave him a lecture on the way about not being able to destroy things or wreck the house.
Su Ran originally wanted to take advantage of that surge of energy to educate this little devil more, but unfortunately, Lu Shao stopped her.
Sympathy for Lu Boxuan, non-existent. He didn't need sympathy. Lu Shao was just considering that Su Ran had to play tomorrow, so she couldn't sleep too late.
……
The next day, Su Ran's entire performance went very smoothly. During the last encore, Su Ran played a piece that she had never performed in public before, or even in rehearsals.
This piece of music had once been a hurdle in Su Ran's musical career. In her previous life, she had not been able to complete this piece of music before she had suddenly died at the piano.
However, after coming to this world, especially in the past four years of having a complete family, Su Ran gradually completed the creation of this piece.
After the song was played, the whole audience was silent. Su Ran no longer considered how much of a sensation such a piece would cause in the industry, how much honor it would bring her, or how much applause it would garner.
At that moment, Su Ran's eyes were only on the three people standing by the stage. Two men and a little boy.
Amidst thunderous applause, Su Ran rose from the piano and bowed to the audience. Then she walked step by step towards the man standing beside the stage, who was looking at her with unblinking eyes.
Just like a few years ago, when Su Ran participated in the piano finals for the first time in this world, Lu Shao stood by the stage and reached out to her.
At the moment their hands clasped together, both of them smiled. Just like before, Lu Shao bent down and lifted the hem of the dress behind Su Ran. This time, however, Lu Shao carefully lifted her directly into his arms.
Amidst the applause, Lu Shao left with the mother of his children.
……
They returned to the hotel. Lu Shao carefully placed Su Ran on the bed, then squatted down in front of Su Ran and took off the pair of shoes with a bit of a heel that Su Ran was wearing.
"Are you tired?" Lu Shao looked at Su Ran and asked softly.
"Not tired." Su Ran shook her head and said.
"What about the baby? Is the baby tired?" Lu Shao hooked the corner of his mouth and looked at Su Ran's still flat abdomen, asking.
After speaking, he leaned over and gently kissed Su Ran's abdomen, the place where a child already lived. Upon hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but smile.
"No, the baby is also very good, don't worry."
Su Ran was pregnant, just a month before her concert. At first, Lu Shao didn't really want Su Ran to put in so much effort to prepare for the concert at this time.
However, in the end, he agreed because he didn't want to delay Su Ran's dream. However, throughout the entire process, Lu Shao was very careful, and he almost accompanied Su Ran 24 hours a day.
Moreover, the concert, which was originally scheduled to start in 2 months, was held a whole month earlier.
"Now that the concert is over, can you finally relax?" Su Ran's fingertips traced Lu Shao's brow as she asked with a slight smile.
“I can’t,” Lu Shao said, holding Su Ran’s hand and gently kissing it. “I’ll be worried about you both until she’s born safely.”
“Pfft……”
Upon hearing this, Su Ran couldn't help but laugh.
"Mr. Lu, you're the father of two children, can you be more steady?" At least when it came to having children.
"Hubby."
"Hmm?"
"What if it's a boy again this time?"
"No," Lu Shao said resolutely.
He had observed carefully. This time during pregnancy, Su Ran's habits and food preferences were completely different from when she was pregnant with Lu Boxuan.
Therefore, this time, the Lu family should welcome a real little princess.
