Lu Gan nodded.
Song Ci was puzzled. It was impossible for Song Yujin to lose a book. He would never be invested in his father either. Why did he tell that particular story to Lu Gan? What was the meaning behind “not all parents would treat their children well”?
After thinking for a long time, Song Ci looked at Lu Gan in disbelief.
‘What if the Ugly Duckling is Lu Gan? Does that make Lu Hongyong the Mother Duck? Is Yujin saying that Lu Hongyong doesn’t like Lu Gan? Did he know something? Why else would he give such a hint?’
Song Ci was a little flustered, but she pretended to be calm.
!!
“Forget it. I’m just going to help Yujin shower.”
Lu Gan smiled.
“Okay. I’ll go online and buy him some rubber ducks. Maybe that’s what he wanted. He acts like an adult but in the end, he’s still a child.”
‘He’s so naive…’
Song Yujin tried his best to be subtle so Lu Gan would not be hurt.
Unfortunately, Lu Gan did not get the message at all.
Song Ci sighed in her heart. pared to the two children, Lu Gan was really innocent.
Subsequently, Song Ci went to Song Yujin’s room.
Song Yujin was reading a book. He knew that Song Ci was here to give him a bath.
“Let me finish reading this page.”
Song Ci nodded and sat beside Song Yujin. Then, she asked, “You lost your book?”
Song Yujin raised his head to look at Song Ci, but he did not say anything.
Song Ci was worried about Lu Gan, so she asked directly, “The Ugly Duckling represents your brother-in-law, right?”
Song Yujin was surprised. He thought that Lu Gan was smarter than Song Ci. Unexpectedly, she guessed the meaning behind his words before him.
The little boy pursed his lips and continued to remain silent.
Since Song Yujin did not refute anything, Song Ci guessed that she was right.
“How did you find out?”
Song Yujin still did not speak.
“Are you not telling me for a reason? Did you make a promise to someone? Is it Little Suo?”
“…”
“I see. So both of you have realized that Lu Gan’s father doesn’t like him.”
“…”
“Will your brother-in-law be in danger?”
“…”
Once again, Song Yujin stayed quiet but he did not refute.
“This means he’ll be safe for now, right?”
Song Ci nodded and continued, “You’re afraid that your brother-in-law will be in danger, but you can’t break your promise to Little Suo. Is that why you told him that story?”
“…”
Song Ci patted Song Yujin’s head.
“It’s fine. You didn’t say anything. I’m also clueless.”
Song Yujin lowered his head.
Song Ci moved closer to him.
“My little brother is so smart and considerate.”
Song Yujin was embarrassed.
Song Ci smiled.
“If the Ugly Duckling had met someone like you, it would not have suffered so much. Don’t worry. Sooner or later, it’ll turn into a beautiful swan.”
Upon hearing those words, Song Yujin felt relieved. Thankfully, Song Ci managed to pick up his hints. She would keep Lu Gan safe.
Song Yujin said awkwardly, “I’m going to take a shower.”
Song Ci immediately carried him.
“Once you’re clean, you’ll look like a little white swan.”
Song Yujin did not want to be a white swan. Instead, he wanted to be a tiger.
