“What are you doing?” Lu Xingguang jumped up angrily and glared daggers at Lu Zhanxiu.

 Holding Yan Susu tightly, Lu Zhanxiu looked nonchalantly at his infuriated son and said, “Holding my wife.”

 Yan Susu couldn’t believe it. How could anyone stoop to such a level of immaturity?

 Was this really the legendary callous, aloof, and decisive Young Mr. Lu that everyone talked about in the outside world?

 Honestly, rumors in the marketplace should never be believed!

 “You just wait. I will grow up so fast and take Honey away from you!” Lu Xingguang huffed and puffed as he took his seat. He then picked up his bowl and started eating, his eyes emanating rage without straying from his father.

 Totally oblivious to his son’s fury, Lu Zhanxiu lowered his head to look at Yan Susu and asked testily, “Still want to avoid me?’

 “No, I wouldn’t dare.”

 “If there is a next time, I will have to punish you properly. Got it, Mrs. Lu?”

 “There won’t be a next time.”

 Satisfied, Lu Zhanxiu released her, smiling to himself. This little woman was really very shy, so keeping her by his side was not a bad idea at all.

 “I’m done eating. Honey, help me with my homework.” Lu Xingguang gobbled down his food and, dragging Yan Susu, began to walk away from the table.

 He had to keep his Honey away from that iceberg, Lu Zhanxiu!

 Yan Susu let him pull her away without a word.

 This time, unexpectedly, Lu Zhanxiu did not intercept them.

 Back in his room, Lu Xingguang did not even glance at the toys and games that he loved. Instead, he went straight to his homework and set to work in earnest.

 For her part, Yan Susu coached him in earnest as well.

 She realized that Lu Xingguang was very smart. Not only was he able to pick up the essence of the lesson from just a small clue, but he was also able to draw inferences very quickly.

 He only had to work through a single problem of a certain category to be able to sail through further problems in the same category, even though they might be presented in different formats.

 “You’re very smart!”

 Basking in her compliments, Lu Xingguang was so deliriously happy that he worked even harder on his homework. Still feeling good after completing the assignments that his teacher had given him, he took out all his past assignments and continued working through them doggedly.

 When it was past nine, Yan Susu nagged at him to wash up and go to bed. Although he was still feeling energetic, he put down his pen reluctantly and reassured her, “Don’t worry, Honey. I will make sure that I get awarded the red scarf and three stripes, become an adult, and marry you.”

 Gently ruffling his soft hair, Yan Susu laughed and said, “Go for it.”

 “Um…” Lu Xingguang’s eyes flicked toward her. Suddenly, he looked uncomfortable, and his cheeks turned pink.

 “What is it?” Yan Susu had never seen him like this before and was very curious to find out what was going on.

 What did this little guy have up his sleeve now?

 “Let’s take a bath together.”

 “Huh?” Taken aback, Yan Susu looked at Lu Xingguang. She had not expected him to make such a request.

 Although he was just six years old and technically still a child, kids these days matured relatively early, and a six-year-old would already have picked up some knowledge of sex. Taking a bath with someone of the opposite sex would not be appropriate.

 Lu Xingguang’s face turned redder. “My classmates tell me that their parents take baths together.”

 Yan Susu could not help but burst into laughter as she watched the shy yet mature little boy. “Young man, only men and women who are married can take baths together.”

 At her words, Lu Xingguang jumped up in a panic and grabbed Yan Susu’s hand, demanding frantically, “You must not take a bath with that iceberg, Lu Zhanxiu. You are mine. You must wait for me to grow up and take a bath with me!”

 Dumbfounded, Yan Susu was at a loss as to how she should react. She replied, “Don’t worry, I will not wash with him. But I could help to wash you.”

 Satisfied with her reply, Lu Xingguang heaved a sigh of relief. “OK.”

 Yan Susu proceeded to bathe him meticulously She then helped him into his pajamas and tucked him in bed, drawing the bedcovers over him before straightening up to leave the room.

 But at the first sign of movement from her, a soft, pale little hand latched onto hers.

 Turning around, she saw Lu Xingguang looking at her expectantly with his big, dewy eyes.

 “Honey, can you sing me a lullaby? My friends at school tell me that their mothers sing them to sleep.”
