Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!
Chapter 233 - Chapter 233 Chapter 233 The Dense Night Colors of Port City

Chapter 233: Chapter 233: The Dense Night Colors of Port City Chapter 233: Chapter 233: The Dense Night Colors of Port City Jingzhou to Port City by plane.

As Lu Xining just put her daughter in the seat and turned to stow her bag, Little Dumpling’s hairclip that wasn’t fastened tightly fell off and rolled across the aisle.

She clutched her favorite little pink fox, about to get down and retrieve it, when the handsome uncle across from her picked it up for her.

Lu Nuonuo gave him a brilliant smile, “Thank you, handsome uncle.”

The man opposite, Zhou Jiawang, had a gentle gaze, “You’re welcome.”

Lu Xining arrived a bit late, and some passengers had already boarded the first-class cabin.

Hearing the man’s familiar voice, she turned back.

At that moment, Zhou Jiawang was also looking up at her, his blue eyes filled with affection, remorse, and timidity.

“Ningning, it has been a long time.”

A lot of time had passed since their last encounter.

Old Lady Zhou had her birthday party this weekend.

She specifically called to ask Zhou Jiawang to rush back for the event.

Even wanted him to go to Jingzhou personally to invite Lu Xining.

Because Lu Xining had turned down Old Lady Zhou’s invitation.

Although Zhou Jiawang did come to Jingzhou, he didn’t disturb her and didn’t think she was traveling to Port City for the birthday party.

Familiar words, as if they were what he always said at every encounter.

Lu Xining returned a courteous smile.

Little Dumpling, often traveling to Country C, was already very experienced with flights.

Starting to feel sleepy as the plane took off, and then instantly awake upon landing, she was all about immersion experience.

Gong Yunxue was supposed to come pick them up in person, but considering her busy schedule with the photo exhibition, Lu Xining politely declined her kind offer, so she arranged a driver to pick them up.

Little Dumpling, sitting on the suitcase, swung her little feet.

Seeing Zhou Jiawang, who came out behind them, she waved goodbye, “Handsome uncle, bye-bye~”

With his assistant following him, Zhou Jiawang took the initiative, “Ningning, let me give you a ride.”

Lu Xining smiled and declined, “Thank you, but there’s no need, someone is coming to pick us up.”

Still unwilling to accept his kindness?

Realizing the distance and politeness in the woman’s smile, Zhou Jiawang felt a tightness in his chest.

Just then.

Someone rushed over in a hurry, “Miss Lu, I am so sorry for being late.”

“I am Mr. Gong’s assistant, Xiao Li, I’ll take your luggage.”

Lu Xining checked against the photo and confirmed that he was indeed the assistant Gong Yunxue had sent her a photo of.

She nodded, “Thank you for the trouble.”

Little Dumpling stretched out her arms, and said with her soft, glutinous voice, “Mama, lift me down; Nuonuo will walk by herself.”

To Lu Nuonuo, the Zhou Jiawang who had not yet left was like an incomparably beautiful sculpture.

She tilted her little head and smiled at him.

Ah, another handsome uncle enchanted by mama.

Lu Xining bid farewell to Zhou Jiawang and followed Gong Yunxue’s assistant towards the parking lot.

The Little Dumpling in her arms was still waving at Zhou Jiawang.

Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, she spotted another even more handsome and pretty uncle.

She blinked her eyes and craned her neck to get a better look, but the person had already vanished.

Wow! There are so many handsome uncles at godmother’s place!

But she felt like her bargain dad might be a bit more handsome, right?

Returning to the hotel arranged by Gong Yunxue.

Little Dumpling couldn’t wait to run to the full-length panoramic window.

Opposite was Port City’s most famous Victoria Harbour.

The dazzling night view was one of the reasons it’s so famed.

“Mama, look, it’s so beautiful.”

Lu Xining touched her little head and hugged her, overlooking the neon night of the city.

The place where they stood now was somewhere she dared not dream of back in her days in Port City.

“Hungry? Shall I take you out to eat?”

Lu Nuonuo patted her little stomach; though it wasn’t “singing” yet, she was a little hungry.

“Mama, I want to eat egg tarts.”

After saying this, she even held up two fingers coquettishly, “I want to eat two~”

Lu Xining was amused by her and kissed her daughter’s fair cheek.

“Okay, eat two.”

Little Dumpling pecked her cheek and thought of her two brothers who were attending school in Jingzhou.

She continued, “I’ll bring back two boxes for the brothers.”

“Okay, bring them for the brothers.”

Lu Xining rubbed her daughter’s back and found a slight trace of sweat, so she took her to the bathroom for a quick hot bath and changed her into clean clothes.

Just as she opened the door, she didn’t find her phone.

“Nuonuo, don’t go outside. Mommy will go get the phone.”

“Okay~”

She didn’t close the door hard and didn’t notice it hadn’t shut properly.

The obedient Little Dumpling standing by the door saw the man returning through the crack.

“Uncle!” Lu Nuonuo’s eyes sparkled with surprise.

Ji Muye had been on a business trip abroad.

Before heading back, he received a call about a problem with a project in Port City, so he changed his flight to come over.

At this moment, he had just finished a dinner and carried the faint scent of alcohol.

Hearing Little Dumpling’s voice, he was momentarily startled and didn’t react.

Ji Muye glanced back at the room across but didn’t see anyone, thinking he had imagined the voice because he missed his daughter too much.

Seeing that he wasn’t paying attention to her, Lu Nuonuo hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and ran out.

She hugged Ji Muye’s long legs and looked up at him, “Uncle, hug.”

Seeing his suddenly appearing daughter, Ji Muye’s gaze froze for an instant, then he immediately lifted her up into his arms, and only then did he notice the open door across.

Hearing her daughter’s noise and worrying that Little Dumpling had been tricked, Lu Xining hurried out.

Seeing Lu Nuonuo in Ji Muye’s arms, she breathed a sigh of relief but then sternly said, “Nuonuo, didn’t Mommy just said not to go outside?”

The knowing-she-was-wrong Little Dumpling dutifully bowed her head, “Nuonuo knows she was wrong.”

“Mommy isn’t angry, okay?”

“I will ask Uncle to buy Mommy egg tarts, to buy super super many egg tarts.”

After saying that, she addressed Ji Muye, “Uncle, right?”

Ji Muye curved the corners of his mouth, “Right.”

Lu Xining: “…”

Listening to her daughter’s childlike talk, and the man’s unconditionally doting love, she shook her head helplessly.

In the eyes of the child, what she liked at the moment was the best thing in the whole world.

Taking a few steps closer, Lu Xining smelled the faint alcohol on the man’s body.

She furrowed her brows but said nothing.

Lu Xining extended her hand, “Hand Nuonuo over to me, please.”

About to ask where they were going,

Ji Muye then heard Lu Nuonuo say before him, “Uncle, we’re going to have dinner.”

“Nuonuo wants to eat two big egg tarts, the kind you can bite into with a ‘wow’.”

Port City hadn’t been very peaceful recently at night.

Although Ji Muye didn’t speak, both Lu Xining and her daughter read the same message in his eyes.

He wanted to go with them too.

Lu Nuonuo tilted her soft and cute little head, looked at her mom, then at her cheap father who was holding her.

Ji Muye said, “Wait for me for fifteen minutes, I’ll change clothes.”

Lu Nuonuo had just reached out towards her mom when the man swiftly whisked her into the room.

Little Dumpling: “???”

Lu Xining had already wrapped her arms around her daughter’s armpits, ready to forcefully pull her into her embrace, when she saw Ji Muye’s abrupt and magical maneuver.

She gritted her teeth: “!!!”

Knowing that Lu Xining disliked the smell of alcohol, Ji Muye went back to the room to shower and change clothes.

He had thought about it and decided not to hand his daughter back to her.

Otherwise, when he came out, he would find that she and the daughter would have long since left.

Inside the room,

Lu Nuonuo swayed her little feet, sitting obediently on the sofa watching him.

She pursed her lips and hesitantly asked, “Uncle, is this what uncle said about… catching the king first to catch the thieves?”

Ji Muye raised the corners of his mouth, “No, it’s using the emperor to command the princes.”
