1045 My Good Daughter (1/2)
Fine, he would let her leave.
Six months later, they would find each other again.
…
Little Gu Yelin had gone to kindergarten and Lin Xuanji went to pick him up after school.
”Grandma, I want to have candied hawthorn too. Look, all the other kids are eating it.” Little Gu Yelin looked at Lin Xuanji pitifully.
Lin Xuanji ruffled his head affectionately. ”Okay, okay. Grandma will buy one for you.”
The two arrived in the downtown area in the luxury car. As promised, Lin Xuanji bought little Gu Yelin a stick of candied hawthorn.
”Wow Grandma, this is really sweet. Come and try some too.”
Lin Xuanji bent down, taking a bite. ”Mm, it really is very sweet.”
Little Gu Yelin lifted his head, noticing a familiar figure on the opposite side of the road. ”Grandma, hurry up and look. It's Grandpa.”
Lin Xuanji lifted her eyes, noticing Lu Jinwen.
Lu Jinwen had just walked out of a commercial building on the opposite side. He wore a gray shirt with black trousers, standing tall as he walked down the steps. Those long legs of his appeared so strong, every step he took had some wind rushing past. He exuded the charm of a mature man, calm, collected and dignified.
Butler Ye followed behind Lu Jinwen.
”Grandma, look, there's a beautiful aunty beside Grandpa. Who's that aunty?” little Gu Yelin asked.
Lin Xuanji had also seen the young, beautiful woman walking beside Lu Jinwen.
It was Wang Yanran.
Wang Yanran wore a pink maxi dress, walking beside Lu Jinwen while talking to him with a smile. In contrast, Lu Jinwen's chiseled face was somewhat emotionless. He didn't seem to be engrossed in the conversation at all.
Butler Ye pulled open the car door, Lu Jinwen first got in before Wang Yanran followed suit. The luxury car sped away.
Lu Jinwen left with the woman in his car.
”Grandma, Grandpa didn't come home all night yesterday. Did he spend the night with that beautiful aunty?” Little Gu Yelin pouted his lips unhappily.
Lin Xuanji averted her gaze, her face impassive. ”Niuniu, you don't understand adult matters.”
”Grandma, I do understand! That beautiful aunty likes Grandpa, she's seducing Grandpa!” Little Gu Yelin seemed to get even more agitated as he burst out in his childlike voice.
”…”
”Grandma, I have an idea! The other time a beautiful aunty tried to seduce my daddy, I overheard this. Mommy said that she was going to pounce onto daddy, claiming that she would make daddy unable to get out of bed the next morning. Grandma, let's go home now and I'll help you pounce onto Grandpa. Let's make him unable to get off the bed tomorrow morning!”
”…”
Oh my goodness, how did Mo'er and Mohan even qualify as parents? Couldn't they be more discreet in these matters? At this rate, they were going to lead Niuniu astray!
Lin Xuanji knitted her brows. This wasn't acceptable, she had to have a good talk with Mo'er.
She lifted her eyes, looking in the direction that he had just left in. Did he… find another woman outside already?
Just a few days ago, she had rejected his advances in bed. He continued to take care of her health, just that he had stopped coming to her for kisses and stopped having any form of physical contact with her. Last night, he hadn't come home.
It was his first time not coming home for the night ever since they had gotten married a year ago.
…
In the luxurious car.
Wang Yanran took a secret peek at Lu Jinwen. The man slumped against the seat, his long legs crossed as he lowered his eyes to look at the document on his lap.
The golden sun rays shone down through the car windows. His facial features were so distinct, just like a bottle of rare wine that only got better as it aged.
