Chapter 81: Chapter 81

The child in her arms suddenly stopped crying, sniffed, and said, "Sister Tongtong, I believe you!" She called out heavily, emphasizing her rebellion, "But, you have to be careful of the Great Demon, don’t let him deceive you. If anything happens, you can always come to me, I’ll definitely have your back!"

He said this while giving Lu Beichen a sidelong glance, and continued to ask Ji Niandong, "Sister Tongtong, do you like me?"

"Of course, Sister Tongtong has never seen a child as good-looking as you!" Ji Niandong replied sincerely.

"Do you like me more, or him?" He rolled his eyes at Lu Beichen.

Seeing he was easy to appease, Ji Niandong quickly replied, "Of course you! You’re so cute!"

"Yay!" He looked at Lu Beichen triumphantly, took Ji Niandong’s hand, and walked inside. "Sister Tongtong, I’ve smelled the delicious food a long time ago, I didn’t expect it was something you cooked, you’re really amazing!"

His expression instantly changed to one of flattery, and Lu Beichen stood there, unable to help but let out a sigh.

"Sister Tongtong, so much delicious food!" Lu Sinian exclaimed sincerely, his sweet words followed by climbing directly onto a chair.

Having cried so hard just before, he sniffed and found it still a bit blocked, so he wiped it with his hand.

Ji Niandong immediately picked him up, "You have to wash your hands before eating!"

She carried him straight to the tap; although he was five years old, he was small and light, making it effortless to hold him.

Thus, it was truly pitiful!

Lu Sinian cooperated well, turning on the tap, rubbing both hands under the flowing water, and calmly replied, "Mr. Lu never told me to wash my hands before meals, Sister Tongtong, would you find me lacking manners?"

"How could that be? Aren’t you washing your hands obediently now?!" She comforted him softly, yet felt a twinge of sadness inside. A child without a mother knows less, as after all, men can indeed be somewhat careless when taking care of children.

Lu Beichen came over, just as he was reaching out to wash his hands, Lu Sinian quickly turned off the tap, and sweetly said, "Sister Tongtong, I’m done washing, you can put me down now, I can walk over myself, you’ll be tired holding me for so long!"

"It’s fine! I’ll carry you over and then serve you food!" Ji Niandong carried him straight to the dining table.

Lu Beichen’s expression tightened, he turned on the tap to wash his hands secretly. This kid purposely said he wasn’t taught manners, was he implying he’s neglected?

"Lu Sinian, didn’t grandpa and grandma tell you to wash your hands before meals, why didn’t you remember today?" Lu Beichen leisurely dried his hands, walked over, and casually asked.

In his words, there wasn’t a hint of blame or anger, as if he was just giving a simple reminder.

But Lu Sinian immediately grabbed Ji Niandong’s arm, hiding behind her, looking pitiful.

Ji Niandong felt distressed, reproaching Lu Beichen, "Kids naturally don’t remember things, why are you being so harsh on him?!"

"I..." He actually wanted to be harsh on him!

Ji Niandong patted Lu Sinian’s back and softly said, "You start eating, I’ll get something for you to drink!"

As soon as she walked away, Lu Sinian wiggled his little bottom, sat comfortably on the chair, started picking food, and shot Lu Beichen a triumphant look, feeling extremely delighted all over.
