Zhou Shuang planned to persuade Jiaojiao by coaxing her. But she saw the anticipation and yearning in her eyes, and so she gave up.
When Zhou Shuang nodded, Lu Yinan’s mother gave Jiaojiao a thumbs up.
Jiaojiao giggled happily as she shrunk her neck.
Zhou Shuang bowed her head and was lost in thoughts. She took a long time to finish the soup.
After they had finished their soup, Lu Yinan’s mother kept everything. She said, “First Lu, Third Lu, let’s go home.”
“Okay.” First Lu jumped to his feet and walked to his grandmother.
Yanyan ran to Jiaojiao and tugged at her elbow. “Sister, when are you ing home?”
Jiaojiao gently caressed Yanyan’s hair. “I will e home soon. You must listen to Grandmother, understand?”
This little imp was acting like an adult.
Zhou Shuang and Lu Yinan chuckled when they gazed at Jiaojiao.
They were merely a few minutes apart, yet it was easy to tell who the older sister was.
Jiaojiao always acted more sensibly and mature when her younger sister was around.
She really acted like an older sister.
“Okay.” Lu Huanyan stared at her sister and nodded. “Sister, you must drink water and sleep.”
Jiaojiao stroked Yanyan’s hair. “Yanyan is a good girl.”
“These two rascals.” Lu Yinan’s mother shook her head as she grinned. She carried Yanyan.
She waved at Jiaojiao and said, “Grandmother is going back with your brother and sister. We will e tomorrow.”
“Bye-bye, Grandmother.” Jiaojiao waved goodbye to Chen Anyun.
Zhou Shuang walked them out of the ward and to the corridor. She retracted her gaze and turned around slowly. At that moment, she saw Lu Yinan.
She avoided his gaze and turned to Jiaojiao. “Shall we go for a walk?”
“Okay!” Jiaojiao exclaimed happily, and she pulled Lu Yinan’s hand. She smiled at Zhou Shuang. “I want Daddy too.”
Zhou Shuang was speechless.
This lass was seizing any opportunity in sight.
‘Did Lu Yinan teach her these tricks?’ she thought to herself.
“It’s cold and foggy outside. Let’s walk indoors.”
Lu Yinan spoke to them.
He immediately rose and carried Jiaojiao before he strode towards Zhou Shuang.
Zhou Shuang mumbled, “You bring her out then.”
She sounded cold and unfeeling.
Lu Yinan felt a little lost and defeated.
He had been so initiative, even if she was unwilling, she should still think of their child.
How could she refuse the request of such a sensible child?
The more Lu Yinan thought about it, the angrier he became. He hastened his footsteps and marched past Zhou Shuang.
Zhou Shuang turned and smiled reassuringly at Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao’s disappointment faded a little.
After they vanished out of sight, Zhou Shuang sighed helplessly and sadly.
‘Sigh!’
…
Lu Yinan stood at the end of the corridor with Jiaojiao in her arms. They peered beyond the windows.
A thick fog had covered the entire capital city and nothing could be seen.
