“Grandma Lu, we were just talking about why Chief Lu named 3rd Uncle as Huainan when we don’t stay in the Huainan City.”
The rotund, fair face of the girl revealed a trace of amusement.
It was probably because she had short hair along with a huge fringe that she looked like really young, probably around 13-14 years old. It was only later on that Shi Guang found out that she was already 16.
Lu Huainan looked at her and smiled endearingly. “You don’t like to eat oranges as well. Why are you called Ye Ju then?”
“Grandma Lu!” Ye Ju held onto Shen Lingshuang’s hands. “I feel that I was practically born for 3rd Uncle. I’m called Ju and he’s called Huainan. That makes me an orange that was born in Huainan! Give me 10 years…10 years and I’ll marry you, 3rd Uncle.”
Lu Huainan called out speechlessly, “Ye Ju…”
“Why are you calling me along with my surname again? You’ve promised me that you’ll only call me Ju.”
Lu Huainan looked at her innocent face and teased, “Little brat! So young and you’re already thinking about marriage! Spill the beans, are you fancying some guy from your class?”
Ye Ju smiled. “Nopes! I only wish to be 3rd Uncle’s bride!”
Lu Huainan rapped her on the head as she pursed her little lips, her silky soft hair swaying gently in the wind.
Shen Lingshuang bore with her a motherly smile the entire time. “10 years later, your 3rd Uncle will be really old. Also, he has a wife already.”
Shen Lingshuang did not put it to heart and merely took it as a joke—after all, this was just a child.
When girls were young, they would always spout such words, claiming that they wanted to marry uncles or brothers that they liked.
However, Shi Guang could feel a bizarre sense of flirtiness here. Ye Ju wasn’t young at 16 years of age. Moreover, Shi Guang could feel a reminiscent feeling from the way Ye Ju looked at Lu Huainan—it was the same way she used to look at Lu Yanchen.
But for Lu Huainan, it was a straightforward uncle and niece relationship.
Ye Ju was bullied in school today and gave Lu Huainan a call. He then went to the school to settle it while bringing her out for a meal before sending her home.
Shen Lingshuang asked Lu Huainan if he wanted to return home to visit Chief Lu, but he rejected her. She then complained to Shi Guang later on, “Sons would always stay out unlike daughters. My greatest regret in this lifetime is not having a daughter.
“Don’t you have me?” Shi Guang smiled at Shen Lingshuang in a cute manner.
Shen Lingshuang felt her heart turning fuzzy and warm immediately. “Fourth is still the best! I’m completely pleased with this wife he picked.”
The two of them continued strolling and chatting. However, they still did not catch sight of Chief Lu and Su Liping.
“Could we have gone the wrong direction?”
“That shouldn’t be. Forget it, let’s not stroll anymore and just head back.”
With that, Shi Guang and Shen Lingshuang walked back to the house.
As they were arriving, they caught sight of Chief Lu and Su Liping not too far away from the house. Chief Lu was standing straight and upright like a sturdy mountain. On his opposite was Su Liping who, despite her age, was acting all coy and shy.
The two of them looked at one another and stopped in their tracks instinctively before walking to a corner secretly. They were quite a distance away, and thus could not hear anything that was going on.
Recalling what Shen Lingshuang had told her previously, Shi Guang asked, “Mummy, do you find this scene familiar?”
“Yes, it’s exactly the same as back then,” She was standing some distance away and had accidentally caught both of them looking at one another just like now—it was an infatuated man and a willing woman.
“I feel that Su Liping is just trying to set you up on purpose—both in the past and the present. You’ve already had such a deep mental scar from all those years, and now that you’re witnessing this again, you would definitely think that Chief Lu is cheating on you,” Shi Guang analyzed.
