The Perfect Destiny

The Adventures of Baby Guo [4]

In fact, Lu Zhiyang didn’t need to worry about Chen Liguo being led astray.

Because Chen Liguo had never been good, if the system were asked to judge, Chen Liguo is definitely the sort of host that was detained by systems, even if he now had a very cute body at the moment.

Chen Liguo who was spanked by Lu Zhiyang fell asleep with sobs.

The next day was the weekend which just so happened to give him an excuse to have a lay-in.

Lu Zhiyang came over to call him up, "Jianjian, it’s time to wake up."

Chen Liguo groaned then buried his head in the duvet.

Lu Zhiyang lifted a small corner of the duvet and looked at Chen Liguo’s appearance, finding it very funny. He said, "Hurry and get up, the sun’s already shining on your butt^[1]."

Chen Liguo said, "Butt hurts......can’t get up......"

Lu Zhiyang heard this and laughed, saying, "Still hurting?"

Chen Liguo felt wronged and said, "Really hurts, hurts so much that I couldn’t sleep."

Lu Zhiyang couldn’t help but smile. He reached under the quilt and carried Chen Liguo out, looking at his messy hair and sleepy expression, he said, "Couldn’t sleep? Then who was snoring last night?"

Chen Liguo struggled in Lu Zhiyang’s hands, wanting to return to bed and continue sleeping.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Did Dad really hit that hard? Dad will take a look." While he said this, he took off Chen Liguo’s pajama trousers.

Chen Liguo was stunned.

Before Chen Liguo could react, Lu Zhiyang faced Chen Liguo’s white and tender buttocks that had completely restored their original appearance and took a bite, saying, "Little scoundrel."

Chen Liguo: "Wah!"

Lu Zhiyang said, "Still going back to sleep? If you’re still sleeping then I’ll take another bite."

Chen Liguo: "......" I wish I could fall into an eternal sleep and never wake up.

Lu Zhiyang saw that Chen Liguo wasn’t talking anymore and began to help him change his clothes. Chen Liguo sat on the bed with the expression of ’I have nothing left to live for’ plastered onto his face. Dying, he said, "System, I can’t anymore, I can’t fight Lu Zhiyang."

The system had an indifferent expression, "Oh."

Chen Liguo: "His position is too high——"

The system continued to be indifferent, "Oh."

Chen Liguo, "Alas, the most important thing is to suppress this identity. If I were the father and he was the son!"

System: "Then what?"

Chen Liguo thought about it and then became discouraged again, "Forget it, I don’t want to raise a kid."

System: "Hee hee."

Chen Liguo trembled from head to foot at the system’s laugh.

Lu Zhiyang said, "There’s nothing going on today, how about Dad takes Jianjian to get to know some more friends?"

Chen Liguo was being carried in Lu Zhiyang’s arms. He rested his chin on Lu Zhiyang’s shoulder and said ’okay’ listlessly.

After washing and eating breakfast, the father and son duo left the house.

Chen Liguo had thought that today would be like the usual outing or be a visit to the amusement park and so on, but had never expected that the ’friends’ Lu Zhiyang had mentioned were the Lu Meiqing and Yuan Ange he had met at the arcade yesterday.

It needs to be said, when Chen Liguo saw these two people, he felt an inexplicable chill go down his spine. He said, "System, I don’t suspect that I’m not his biological son anymore."

System: "Why?"

Chen Liguo said quietly, "Do you think that Lu Zhiyang is such a person who would allow such a mistake to happen?"

The system didn’t agree or refute.

The way Yuan Ange treated people was still incredibly enthusiastic. Upon seeing Chen Liguo, he faced him and called a greeting. Lu Meiqing stood at his side, the two of them looking very well matched.

Ever since Chen Liguo was pushed into the water, Lu Zhiyang never brought him to attend the Lu family gatherings. By chance, Chen Liguo had heard Lu Zhiyang speaking to the Housekeeper. He had said, "There are too many fools who don’t fear death in this world. There is no need to wait for them to do something foolish before they regret it."

"Jiashu." Yuan Ange said, "Didn’t think that your father would bring you over."

Chen Liguo, "Yeah."

There were actually two to three more children present. Yuan Ange was evidently the leader and he introduced Chen Liguo to the other children before he asked what Chen Liguo wanted to play.

Chen Liguo said, "I’m good with anything."

Yuan Ange said, "Well, then let’s go swimming." There was a swimming pool in this club.

Chen Liguo said, "But I can’t swim......"

Yuan Ange said, "Then let’s go play games together? There’s an arcade over here too."

Chen Liguo nodded in agreement.

Lu Zhiyang watched over Chen Liguo the entire time he interacted with these children. The person next to him saw this and said with a smile, "It is said that Chief Lu loved this son of yours the most. Today I find that this is not false."

Lu Zhiyang smiled and said, "Children need to be paid more attention to."

That man quickly began to bootlick, "Although your son’s age is small, with just a glance one could tell that he is talented, unlike my family’s disappointing chap......"

Lu Zhiyang had a faint smile on his face and casually picked up a random topic.

The day was coming to an end. Chen Liguo had played joyfully.

When Lu Zhiyang told him that it was time to leave in the evening he was somewhat reluctant to leave.

Lu Zhiyang smiled and said, "Who was is that was unwilling to get up in the morning?"

Chen Liguo pouted, "Well, I hadn’t woken up yet."

Lu Zhiyang said, "Get in the car, it’s time to go."

Chen Liguo got into the car and not long after, became sleepy. Seeing this, Lu Zhiyang put him on his lap and told the driver to drive a bit slower.

Chen Liguo leaned into Lu Zhiyang’s arms, feeling the warmth of his body. And like this, fell asleep in a daze.

It was not until dinner that Lu Zhiyang called him up.

Chen Liguo didn’t eat a large portion, so he finished eating quickly. While he drank his soup, Lu Zhiyang said, "In the future, you can’t play hooky, do you understand?"

Chen Liguo nodded as quickly as he could, his bottom tightening.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Mmm, that’s good."

Chen Liguo sighed. Today he had only had a simple interaction with Yuan Ange and didn’t talk with Lu Meiqing at all. This girl was too shy. Just a glance at her would cause her to lower her and blush for a long time.

Lu Zhiyang continued to say, "If there’s a friend that you like, you can also invite them home."

Chen Liguo paused for a moment.

Then Lu Zhiyang’s tone became heavier. Obviously, this next sentence was his key point. He said word by word, "Not. Allowed. To. Date. Early."

Chen Liguo: "......" Fine, he agrees, but his soul has already reached the age where it would count as a late marriage^[2].

Lu Zhiyang saw that Chen Liguo seemed to be mad and reached out to pinch Chen Liguo’s nose, "Have you heard?"

Chen Liguo nodded as if he were pounding garlic, "I’ve heard."

Lu Zhiyang was satisfied.

Chen Liguo thought in his heart that with this sort of possessive desire if Lu Zhiyang saw his son get married, would he become crazy? But fortunately, there was no such problem right now——because his lovely son is GAY and can’t get married.

Now onto the topic of school again.

Before the system had mocked Chen Liguo’s IQ and had said that he could only elementary school.

However, with Chen Liguo’s own efforts, he managed to get a firm foothold in junior high as he did before. Though, there were actually some things that he didn’t know how to do and suffered a serious blow.

Chen Liguo: "I’ve already lived through several lifetimes now, why can’t I understand math?"

System: "Can pigs become Newton after living a few lifetimes?"

Chen Liguo: "......" Very reasonable, unable to retort.

System: “IQ is not proportional to time.”

Chen Liguo choked on his sobs.

However, although some problems couldn’t be done, most of the junior high problems were still nevertheless were not difficult for Chen Liguo. Relying on his intelligent mind, outstanding courage and insight, and age that was several times greater than others, he finally got 10th place in the class.

When Chen Liguo got his mathematics report card he became proud and said, "System, I am tenth."

The system extinguished his enthusiasm with just one sentence, "There are thirty people in your class."

Chen Liguo: "......" Math teacher, I’m sorry.

System: "Your Chinese is not even as good as your math."

Chen Liguo: "......" Chinese teacher, I’m sorry.

System: "Your English is passable."

Chen Liguo: "......." English teacher, thank you."

In this way, with guilt and gratitude towards his teachers, Chen Liguo took his report card home.

Lu Zhiyang hadn’t returned yet so the housekeeper saw it first. When he got the transcript, he praised Chen Liguo. Praised him until to the point that Chen Liguo went up to heaven or down to Hades^[3], feeling that he himself was practically a little prodigy.

Then Lu Zhiyang came back and praised Chen Liguo as well. Chen Liguo was praised to the point that he felt that he was a genius born into the wrong era.

Then Chen Liguo asked, "Dad, when you went to school, what rank did you get?"

Lu Zhiyang answered him with a smile, "Dad never went to junior high."

Chen Liguo: "Ah?"

The housekeeper was mending the knife to the side and said, "When the Master was thirteen years old he skipped to high school."

Chen Liguo: "......"

Lu Zhiyang rubbed Chen Liguo’s head and said, "Don’t compare with Dad. Dad is not a good student, Dad didn’t even go to college."

Chen Liguo had a bad premonition and said, "Then what did Dad get on your college entrance exam?"

Then Chen Liguo’s bad premonition came true. Lu Zhiyang said, "Twenty marks off from a perfect score."

Chen Liguo: "......" It’s over, he definitely isn’t his biological son.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Learning isn’t important. The most important things is that Jianjian is happy."

If other children heard this sentence, it was estimated that they would be very touched, but Chen Liguo was not touched at all.

At night, Chen Liguo once again discussed the matter of Lu Zhiyang’s bloodline with the system."

Chen Liguo said, "System, is this IQ of mine really inherited from Lu Zhiyang?"

The system quietly voiced out a sentence, "Your IQ has since long been finalized, it’s no good no matter who inherits it."

Chen Liguo: "......" He should have been happy, but why does he feel a bit sad.

The grades were only a small incident in Chen Liguo’s life. It was just as Lu Zhiyang said, he never asked of anything from Chen Liguo and only wanted Chen Liguo to be happy.

Yuan Ange and Lu Meiqing were in the same school as Chen Liguo. One was a second-year student and the other was a third-year student. Because of the close distance, they also became somewhat familiar with each other. But from beginning to end, Chen Liguo never invited them to his house to play.

This was due to a sort of mystical feeling of Chen Liguo’s. He felt that if he really did invite Lu Meiqing and Yuan Ange home, then Lu Zhiyang would probably be unhappy......

Chen Liguo’s character is good and has good looks. Naturally, he was very popular at school. Although he was on good speaking terms with only a few classmates, it didn’t affect Chen Liguo’s happy junior high school life.

A year’s worth of time passed and Chen Liguo became a second year.

In this year, he became good friends with Yuan Ange and Lu Meiqing, and also gained a more detailed understanding of Yuan Ange and Lu Meiqing’s personality.

Yuan Ange had a cheerful personality and was socially active. This could be seen from the way he had greeted Chen Liguo as a child when they had first met. Lu Meiqing was shyer than Chen Liguo had imaged. Although she and Chen Liguo have gotten along well for a year already, she would never be alone with Chen Liguo, almost always following Yuan Ange.

Fortunately, Yuan Ange protected Lu Meiqing. In this way, she and Yuan Ange could be considered well matched.

When it was time for Chen Liguo to celebrate his fourteenth birthday, Lu Zhiyang agreed to let him celebrate his birthday with his classmates, only requiring that he comes back home before dinner. Otherwise......

Lu Zhiyang did not say otherwise what, but this made Chen Liguo tremble with fear even more.

Eat lunch, eat cake, and sing karaoke. Chen Liguo didn’t plan on making his birthday into anything special and just spent it ordinarily in this way.

Yuan Ange graduated from his third year of Junior High and got into a pretty good high school. But he said that he might go abroad halfway through high school.

Chen Liguo heard Yuan Ange’s future plans and asked, "What about Meiqing?"

Yuan Ange said, "She promised to wait a few years for me."

Chen Liguo said, "I envy you guys."

"What is there to envy?" Yuan Ange filled with the cup in front of him, saying with a laugh, "How easy would it be for you to find a girlfriend? Just how many girls like you in your class?"

Chen Liguo was stunned, "Is that true? Why don’t I know of this?

Yuan Ange sighed, "You, every day it’s just home and school. Usually, you seem aloof......"

Chen Liguo: "I’m aloof?"

Yuan Ange said, "Don’t you know that those in your grade have given you the nickname ’Ice Prince’?"

Chen Liguo was frightened into silence by this ’Ice Prince’ for a moment. But then his spirits quickly raised, for this was a recognition of this beauty.

Just as Yuan Ange spoke with Chen Liguo, Lu Meiqing, who went to the washroom, returned.

Yuan Ange saw Meiqing and said, "Meiqing, I remember you said that you had a best friend who also liked Lu Jiashu?"

A blush rose of Lu Meiqing’s cheeks as she whispered, "Didn’t she ask you to keep it a secret?"

Yuan Ange said, "I didn’t say her name."

Lu Meiqing said helplessly, "You."

Chen Liguo watched the two interact, feeling cold dog food^[4] slap him in the face.

Yuan Ange continued to say, "Jiashu, my sixteenth birthday, you must come."

Chen Liguo nodded, agreeing.

Lu Meiqing said softly, "Jiashu, didn’t you need to be back home before 8 o’clock? It’s already 7:20 now."

Chen Liguo looked at his watch and immediately stood up, "Then I’ll take my leave now, you all return home sooner too."

Lu Meiqing and Yuan Ange said goodbye to Chen Liguo and watched him leave the private room.

After Chen Liguo left, Yuan Ange sighed, saying, "Jiashu is good in every way, just he has that sort of father....."

Lu Meiqing didn’t utter a single word.

Yuan Ange glanced at Lu Meiqing, "His father is too frightening."

Lu Meiqing nodded in agreement and then sighed lightly.

Chen Liguo had no idea that his buddies thought that his father was frightening. If he did—he would probably nod in agreement: Yeah, my father is really frightening, I also think so.

Anyway, Chen Liguo feels that he has no privacy rights in this world. What he does, eats, and where he goes, Lu Zhiyang knows it.

Arriving at home, Chen Liguo smelled the rich aroma of food the moment he pushed opened the door. He walked to the dining room and saw Lu Zhiyang reading a newspaper. He opened his mouth and called out, "Dad."

"Jianjian has come home?" Lu Zhiyang was in home-wear and stood up with a smile, "Hurry and come, the food just finished."

To be honest, if one only looked at outside appearance, Lu Zhiyang was a young man who seemed to be only in his twenties. When he went out with Chen Liguo, they did not seem like father and son, but like brothers.

Lu Zhiyang saw Chen Liguo, swooped down, and picked him up. At this time, Chen Liguo’s body had not yet finished growing. There was a little baby fat on his face and his skin was white and tender. He was simply like a little steam bun that had just come out of coming out of the steamer basket, extremely cute.

Lu Zhiyang kissed Chen Liguo’s cheeks and said, "Where did you go to play?"

Chen Liguo said, "Ate with my classmates and sang for a little."

Lu Zhiyang, "Happy?"

Chen Liguo nodded and said, "Happy."

Lu Zhiyang said, "Mmm, then let’s eat."

After dinner, Lu Zhiyang gave Chen Liguo a birthday present. It was a huge SpongeBob, several heads taller than Chen Liguo, and was very comfortable to hold.

Chen Liguo’s eyes lit up when he saw the gift. He couldn’t wait to go back to his bed and try out the Spongebob’s texture.

Lu Zhiyang said with all smiles, "Eat cake."

Fourteen candles were lit. Chen Liguo closed his eyes, made a wish, then blew out the candles.

Lu Zhiyang asked Chen Liguo what he wished for.

Chen Liguo said, "If I say it, then it won’t work anymore."

Lu Zhiyang laughed and didn’t ask anymore.

At nine o’clock, Chen Liguo’s bedtime, Lu Zhiyang didn’t tell Chen Liguo to go to sleep and instead asked, "Jianjian, do you miss Mom?"

Chen Liguo was a little stunned and then immediately said, "I..... don’t remember."

Lu Zhiyang raised a brow and said, "Don’t remember Mom at all?"

Chen Liguo said with hesitation, "There’s only.....a vague impression."

Lu Zhiyang sounded a ’hrm’ and told Chen Liguo to sleep.

When the housekeeper came over and asked him if he needed to have hot water prepared for a bath, Lu Zhiyang sighed and said, “Sometimes I don’t know if this is the right thing to do so.”

The housekeeper said, "If the little master is happy then all is well."

Lu Zhiyang shook his head and said lightly, "He’s still small and doesn’t understand anything."

The housekeeper said, “But didn’t Li Yaoyao remarry?”

Lu Zhiyang said, "Correct, she got married again." Speaking of this, a little doubt flashed through Lu Zhiyang’s eyes. He had always thought that he understand Li Yaoyao very well. He had thought that once Li Yaoyao remarried she would completely give up on Lu Jiashu’s custody, but didn’t expect that once Li Yaoyao remarried she began to make an even bigger fuss.

This sort of abnormal situation made Lu Zhiyang slightly puzzled.

The housekeeper said, "Now that she has started a new life, just what does she want the little master for?"

Lu Zhiyang shook his head, he was keenly aware that something wasn’t right, but at the moment, couldn’t grasp any clue.

The housekeeper said, "Master?"

Lu Zhiyang said, "It’s nothing, you go and prepare hot water."

The housekeeper nodded and went upstairs without saying anything more.

Lu Zhiyang sat along in the dining room with the lights off for a long time, all the way until twelve, upon which the clock in the living room sounded out a ’tick tock. It was as if he had been woken up suddenly and he stood up, slowly returning to the bedroom.

One morning, a few days later, Lu Zhiyang suddenly said to Chen Liguo, “Jianjian, your mother wants to see you.”

Chen Liguo paused with his spoon in hand.

Lu Zhiyang said, "Will you go?"

Chen Liguo asked carefully, "Can I not go?" Because of the previous event, his feelings towards Li Yaoyao were not very good.

Lu Zhiyang thought for a moment and said, "Jianjian should go and take a look. After all, she is your mother."

The housekeeper just happened to be nearby and was astonished when he heard this sentence. Before, Lu Zhiyang clearly didn’t want Chen Liguo and Li Yaoyao to have contact, why did it suddenly change today?

Chen Liguo could only say okay.

And so the matter was settled in this way. From start to finish, Lu Zhiyang did not explain why he suddenly wanted Chen Liguo and Li Yaoyao to meet.

The meeting was scheduled for the next summer vacation. On that day, when Chen Liguo got up his mood wasn’t good, and he didn’t have much of an appetite for breakfast.

Lu Zhiyang didn’t pay attention to Chen Liguo, which was rare, and seemed to be thinking about something very difficult, his entire person somewhat absent-minded.

Chen Liguo finished eating, and said, "Dad, I’m done eating."

Lu Zhiyang touched his head and said, "Mmm, let’s go."

Li Yaoyao and Chen Liguo haven’t seen each other for several years now. This woman got a lot of property when she and Lu Zhiyang divorced. Later, when Lu Zhiyang took back Chen Liguo’s custody, he had given Li Yaoyao a sum of money once again as compensation.

These properties let Li Yaoyao walk smoothly in the modeling circle. Although Lu Zhiyang divorced her, she did not feel embarrassed, instead, in some cases, it gave Li Yaoyao an advantage.

So much that when receiving Li Yaoyao’s wedding invitation, it complied with etiquette.

Chen Liguo sat in the car feeling a little nervous. He said to the system, “My right eyelid is jumping very fiercely.”

The system said, “Eyelid jumping is a spastic contraction due to eye muscle fatigue which is caused by overuse or fatigue.”

Chen Liguo: "......"

System: "Invariably, jumping shows that you have kidney deficiency."

Chen Liguo: "......"

System: "Is there anything else that you want to ask?"

Chen Liguo said numbly, "No."

The system began to read its Sutra again.

Chen Liguo felt as though his heart had been attacked a thousand times, his soul already on the verge of death.

Arrive at the destination, getting off the car, Chen Liguo felt a little scared.

Lu Zhiyang saw this and pat him on the back, saying softly, "Don’t be afraid."

Chen Liguo immediately grabbed Lu Zhiyang’s hand. He wanted Lu Zhiyang to go in with him.

How could he know that Lu Zhiyang would actually gently shake off Chen Liguo’s hand, saying lightly, "Dad will stay outside, Jianjian go in yourself."

Chen Liguo: "......"

Lu Zhiyang said, "Go."

Chen Liguo looked at him pitifully and called out, “Dad.”

If this were like usual, Lu Zhiyang would have become soft-hearted, but today he did not want to compromise. He said, “Go.”

Chen Liguo sounded an ’en’ and tugged at the corner of his own clothes before walking in slowly.

Lu Zhiyang stayed outside, lighting a cigarette.

Li Yaoyao sat inside and waiting for Chen Liguo. When she saw him come in, he stood up and rushed towards Chen Liguo. Her expression was exaggerated and her voice trembled, “Jianjian!”

Chen Liguo held back for half a day before he uttered out a single ’mom’.

“Jianjian.” Seeing Chen Liguo’s unfamiliar attitude, her tears immediately fell down and she cried, “Jianjian, do you still recognize Mom?”

Chen Liguo nodded, and called out once again, "Mom."

Li Yaoyao said, “Jianjian, does your father treat you well?”

Chen Liguo said, “Dad treats me really well.”

Li Yaoyao heard this and bit her lips. Her eyes trained on Chen Liguo’s face as if wanting to gouge a hole in it.

Chen Liguo’s eyelids jumped faster and his bad feeling grew stronger and stronger.

Li Yaoyao said, "Jianjian, are you still willing to live with mom?"

Chen Liguo: "......" It’s over, it’s over, he’s definitely the kid of the next door neighbor.

Li Yaoyao grabbed Chen Liguo’s shoulder and shook him, "Speak!"

Chen Liguo gave the answer that Li Yaoyao had guessed. He said, “I don’t want to.”

Li Yaoyao’s complexion immediately became discouraged. Chen Liguo saw anger, fear, shame, and a trace of viciousness in her expression. She said, “Mom will treat you very well. Would you like to live with Mom?”

Chen Liguo showed a scared expression.

As if stimulated by Chen Liguo’s expression, Li Yaoyao’s expression suddenly became even more ugly. She gripped Chen Liguo’s shoulder with more and more strength, practically pinching it, “Jianjian, Mom loves you, why can’t you understand Mom?”

Chen Liguo said, "Mom, it hurts."

Li Yaoyao immediately loosened her grip, saying, "Sorry, Mom didn’t mean it."

Chen Liguo lowered his head, not speaking anymore.

Li Yaoyao said. "Jianjian, are you really not going to consider it?"

Chen Liguo raised his eyes and looked at Li Yaoyao. He then said in a slightly obscure tone, “You’re this afraid, is it because I am not my father’s child?”

Li Yaoyao’s eyes practically popped out, she screeched, "What drivel are you on about child?!"

Oho, The moment Chen Liguo saw Li Yaoyao’s reaction he knew that his matter had come to an end. He said sadly to the system, "Say, if Lu Zhiyang knew that I wasn’t his real son, just how would I die."

The system said, "How would I know?"

Chen Liguo: "Protecting the host, this is the system’s responsibility."

System: "Monks do not swear."

Chen Liguo: "......" Sooner or later, this system would be finished.

Seeing that Li Yaoyao had yet to turn over, Chen Liguo quickly raised his index finger and made an ’shh’ gesture, saying quietly, "Dad doesn’t know yet."

Li Yaoyao gasped, looking mad. She looked at Chen Liguo as if she was looking at a monster. She said, “You, How did you know?”.

Chen Liguo said, "I guessed."

Li Yaoyao did not feel that she was facing a fourteen-year-old child right now. She said, “What do you want?”

Chen Liguo said, “Don’t come to find me anymore, you don’t want me to come back.”

Li Yaoyao said, “Do you not know if you let him know that you are not.... What will he do to you?” She said up to here and her expression distorted, from which Chen Liguo could see deep fear.

Chen Liguo looked at Li Yaoyao and sighed, “Are you worried about me, or are you worried that if he finds out about it, he will take back the property he gave you and ask you to pay compensation?”

Li Yaoyao was unable to speak.

Chen Liguo looked at Li Yaoyao sympathetically and said, “You’re making it easier for him to find out by acting like this.”

Li Yaoyao’s cheeks twitched.

Chen Liguo said, “Perhaps, he has begun to suspect it.”

Li Yaoyao said, "Then what do you want to do?"

Chen Liguo said, “Leave me alone and don’t come to find me. Forget that you still have such son like me. That’s the best way to deal with it.”

Because of all the different sorts of intense emotions, Li Yaoyao’s expression looked a little frightening. She crouched down and said quietly, "Lu Jiashu, this is what you learned by staying by his side?"

Chen Liguo said lightly, "I was born a genius."

Li Yaoyao: "......."

Chen Liguo said, "Don’t be jealous."

Li Yaoyao: "......."

Chen Liguo said, "This talk with you has just about finished, let’s go."

Li Yaoyao felt somewhat tangled in her heart, but confronted with this sort of Chen Liguo, she was unable to say the words that she had prepared to deceive this child.

Chen Liguo opened his big, watery eyes, looked piteously at Li Yaoyao, and then said, “Mom?”

Li Yaoyao broke into shivers at this ’Mom’ and said, "Okay, I won’t come to find you again, but you——think clearly, if you are found out by Lu Zhiyang, just what sort of end would you meet?"

Chen Liguo: "......" What sort of ending could there be? If worst comes to worst, he’d just go to a different world.

Li Yaoyao didn’t say anything more, took Chen Liguo’s hand, and changed her expression to a smile, before walking out of the room.

Lu Zhiyang saw the two come in then out and was a little surprised, "So quick?"

Li Yaoyao smiled bitterly, "I had just wanted to see him. Having seen, I can be at ease."

"Is that so." Lu Zhiyang had a thought, "Jianjian doesn’t want Mom?"

Chen Liguo quickly slipped over and grabbed Lu Zhiyang’s sleeves, revealing a puppy-like expression, currying favor with his family’s big BOSS.

Lu Zhiyang enjoyed this expression of Chen Liguo’s very much. He rubbed Chen Liguo’s head, "What’s wrong?"

Chen Liguo said, "Dad, I want to eat ice cream."

Lu Zhiyang said, "Eat what ice cream...... Your mother is still here."

Li Yaoyao looked at the interaction between father and son, and said with a smile, “I have booked a ticket for three o’clock... I’ll take my leave now... Zhiyang, take care."

Lu Zhiyang looked at her and said lightly, “Take care.”

It was unknown as to why, but a tremble passed through Li Yaoyao’s body at Lu Zhiyang’s look.

Lu Zhiyang didn’t pay Li Yaoyao any more attention and patted Chen Liguo’s back, saying, “Let’s go, Jianjian.”

Chen Liguo followed after Lu Zhiyang eagerly.
