Chapter 350: 352 Xiaocao, please stay, I will treat him as our child.
Lu Xiaoer said she liked women, and Zhongli Wuzhi was completely dumbfounded.
She was very serious when she said it, even though it sounded utterly absurd, but he believed her.
Because it really made no sense, he had pursued her for so long, and in his eyes, Lu Xiaoer was different from all other women. He just really liked her, liked being with her, even if it meant doing things that totally didn’t fit his personality in the Dongheng Disaster Area. But because Lu Xiaoer was there, he felt those things were not so boring.
Now, she actually told him... she liked women!
And the person she liked was...!
He took several deep breaths but still felt suffocated, as if he couldn’t catch his breath for a long time.
This mansion was actually very secure; the security system was the latest and most advanced. Once the alarm was triggered, the nearest police station would be alerted.
Zhongli Wuzhi left the mansion.
The gaudy green sports car made a loud "buzzing" noise that further shattered the already broken evening sun.
Lu Xiaoer lay by the window, admiring the beautiful evening scenery.
Staying on someone else’s turf, and then playing such pranks on him, could it be a bit too ungrateful?
Using his credit card, although she would repay the money herself, she was still benefiting from Zhongli Wuzhi’s kindness...
Eh, the world isn’t that big; there will always be a chance to repay him in the future!
Thinking this way, Lu Xiaoer no longer felt guilty.
————
After Zhongli Wuzhi took Lu Xiaoer away, Tang Xiaohua and Xiaocao went back.
"Sister, you won’t ever return to Xilin, will you?"
"En?"
Tang Xiaohua didn’t expect Tang Xiaocao to ask her this question.
"Because there are so many of your loved ones here, and Brother Wen Nian, sister... you are much happier here than in Xilin."
Tang Xiaocao said this without any emotion, simply stating a fact.
Tang Xiaohua drove the car, glancing at the little one in the rearview mirror,
"Sister won’t stay here forever, but no matter how long I leave, I will definitely come back. When that time comes, I will bring you back with me."
Maybe by that time, they would be in their forties or fifties, hair peppered with silver strands, but she would ultimately settle down here, achieving her goals here.
Of course, it was also possible that she might never achieve them in this lifetime, but at least, she had tried tirelessly and did not stop merely because Wen Nian offered her warmth and comfort.
"If you are going to come back, why leave at all?"
Tang Xiaocao asked again.
Tang Xiaohua smiled, "When you grow up a little more, I will tell you, tell you many, many... my secrets."
"..."
Having said that, Tang Xiaohua completely piqued Tang Xiaocao’s curiosity. He blinked those big eyes longingly at Tang Xiaohua but was no closer to getting more answers from her.
He could only silently gaze ahead, his little hands clutching his shirt tightly, humming in his heart, hoping to grow up fast.
...
When they returned to the President Mansion, it was six o’clock.
Wen Nian was already waiting for them in the dining room.
The siblings washed their hands and sat down.
"All done?"
Tang Xiaohua asked casually, momentarily feeling as if she had returned to their marriage in a past life.
After a moment of disorientation, she tucked a napkin under Tang Xiaocao’s chin.
Xiaocao looked at the feast laid out on the table, his eyes wide,
"What’s with that look? As if I’ve never taken you to a fancy meal..."
Tang Xiaohua laughed.
Then she saw Tang Xiaocao seriously use his chopsticks to point out several dishes, "I’ve never eaten these before!"
Abalone, Boston lobster, gigantic baked crabs...
Tang Xiaohua couldn’t help it; such delicacies were rare in Xilin, and even if available, they were hard to find.
She had never deliberately taken him to eat such fancy foods before.
"Here."
Brother Wen Nian used the serving chopsticks to pick him a piece of lobster meat, peeled the crab leg, dipped it in the sauce, and placed it on his plate with meticulous care.
"Mr. President is peeling shrimp for you, you’re really honored."
Tang Xiaohua hurriedly said, patting Tang Xiaocao’s hair.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Wen Nian, holding another piece of lobster meat with a fork, extended it toward Tang Xiaohua’s mouth, "You’re even more honored."
"..."
Tang Xiaohua paused for a moment, and Tang Xiaocao started giggling,
"Sister, Brother Wen Nian, you guys are so affectionate!"
"You little brat, what do you know? Stop talking nonsense."
Tang Xiaohua muttered and then took a bite of the lobster meat with an "ahh nom."
"Eat my meat and you’re mine."
"..."
Tang Xiaohua was struck dumb.
"Giggle giggle giggle giggle..." Tang Xiaocao laughed nonstop.
The dinner was indeed a lively one. Wen Nian looked at Tang Xiaohua, then glanced at Tang Xiaocao... and thought to himself, if he and Xiao Li could have a child... in just a few years, it would probably be a scene like this.
Children...
Wen Nian looked at Tang Xiaohua. If he said he wanted a child, would she be willing to bear one for him?
With that thought, Wen Nian couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, not daring to speak his mind so casually.
After dinner.
Tang Xiaohua started packing for Tang Xiaocao, a black square suitcase, which contained some clothes and shoes they bought earlier in the day and the books he browsed at the bookstore. Besides, Tang Xiaohua also bought him lots of snacks.
It seemed the suitcase might not be able to hold everything.
Wen Nian walked in and saw Tang Xiaohua packing the suitcase; he picked up Tang Xiaocao, sat on the bed with him on his lap,
"Xiaocao should stay in Anlin."
"Ah!"
Tang Xiaohua was closing the suitcase when Wen Nian’s remark startled her, and her hand was pinched by the suitcase.
Wen Nian frowned, freeing one hand to try rubbing her hand, but Tang Xiaohua quickly withdrew hers, looking warily at Wen Nian,
"What did you just say?"
"I said... let Xiaocao stay in Anlin. I can provide him with a better education, definitely much better than in Xilin. Isn’t that what you want, for him to receive a good education and succeed?"
Tang Xiaohua didn’t know what game Wen Nian was playing, but she vaguely... smelt a conspiratorial scent.
"He would be here without any relatives, how can you let him..."
"It’s as if he has relatives in Xilin... What’s this about having no one around? Am I not his family?"
Wen Nian said, glancing at Tang Xiaocao,
"Brother Wen Nian wants you to stay in Anlin, do you want to?"
Tang Xiaocao clearly heard his sister’s reluctance to let him stay, so naturally, he dared not speak out...
He hesitated a moment, staying silent.
"He says he wants to."
Wen Nian, for his part, volunteered an answer.
Actually, Tang Xiaohua knew he wasn’t talking nonsense. If Xiaocao didn’t want to, he would have said so; it’s simple. If Tang Xiaocao also wanted to stay, he would hesitate to speak out because of his consideration for her.
"Wen Nian, stop joking."
"Sending him back to Xilin, what if something like last night happens again?"
"..."
"Keeping him here, I would treat him as our own child..."
Wen Nian said gently.
