"Next time, then." No matter what, Madam Lu valued Gun Gun's emotions. She couldn't ignore Gun Gun just to make Liao Xintong pressure Su Bei.

Weijian picked up Gun Gun and said, "Gun Gun, let's go play. Our Gun Gun is the most obedient. Let's go!"

After Gun Gun left, Liao Xintong felt really awkward. She sat for a while before bidding farewell and leaving.

The elders did not ask her to stay either.

However, when she thought of Gun Gun's words, she was deep in thought.

Lu Heting held Su Bei's hand and walked around the old residence. "This is the back garden. Weijian and I used to play here when we were young. We grew up in the old residence, and the third floor is where my room is."

Su Bei had never heard him mention his father, so she thought that his father might have died young and did not ask further.

As they were walking, they received Lu Weijian's WeChat message.

He had added Lu Heting and Su Bei into a group chat. He said exaggeratedly: [Big Brother, Sister-in-law, please don't ever let Gun Gun stay with that Liao woman!]

/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.

Lu Heting asked: [What happened?]

Su Bei also replied in surprise: [?]

Lu Weijian asked: [Do you think Gun Gun likes that woman?]

Su Bei wasn't too sure, but she knew that Gun Gun called that woman 'Aunt.' Between the two of them, it could be said that they were related by blood. She once had a foolish thought of entrusting Lu Heting and Da Bao to that woman.

Lu Heting frowned slightly, forming a beautiful crease. When he was busy and couldn't care for Gun Gun much, it was his mother who brought Gun Gun to Liao Xintong's side.

Whenever he went to pick up Gun Gun, Gun Gun would be extremely happy. He thought that Gun Gun liked being by that woman's side. As his father, he doted on his son and made a compromise. He acquiesced to Madam Lu's actions of bringing Gun Gun to that woman's house. Hence, it became a routine.

Why? Was there more to it?

When Lu Weijian saw that the couple was silent, he didn't bother to wait for them to ask. Instead, he told them everything. [Gun Gun said that he doesn't like to play with that woman surnamed Liao and he doesn't like her at all! Why is he so happy every time he comes back from her place, then? It's because he has escaped from his misery!]

[…] Lu Heting responded with a string of ellipses.

However, he believed him.

Looking at the interactions between Gun Gun and Su Bei and comparing them to how Gun Gun and Liao Xintong interacted, he should have long discovered the problem! Only Gun Gun's fondness for Su Bei was genuine!

A wave of guilt washed over him. As a father, he had indeed overlooked some things.

Managing and dealing with a child's emotions was indeed his weakness.

Lu Heting replied: [Okay, I won't send him there anymore.]

Lu Weijian immediately gave him countless thumbs up. [My elder brother is good at listening to advice, which is why he became the most powerful person in the world!]

When Su Bei saw this, she finally exploded. [Can I say something?]

Lu Weijian replied: [Go ahead.]

Lu Heting tilted his head to look at her, his voice tender and loving.

She read out the words as she typed. [I don't like that woman surnamed Liao either!]

She didn't like her in the past, but she couldn't bring herself to say it because of her feelings. Now, she could finally say it out loud!

This feeling was too satisfying!
