Chapter 161 Acting Cute

Lu Fengqing's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. She glanced at the photo album in Gu Suixing's hand, said "Wait for me," and turned to run out.

A short while later, Lu Fengqing returned carrying a photo album.

Lu Fengqing patted the photo album in her hand, "It's a photo album given to me by Rui Rui's great-aunt."

Gu Suixing handed the photo album to Rui Rui, then carefully moved inside to make room for Lu Fengqing.

Rui Rui moved aside, clutching the photo album, her eyes sparkling.

He wasn't curious at all about his childhood photos. He used to take them out and look at them every now and then when he was still living with the Dou family, so they were no longer interesting. He would rather see photos of Sailor Moon and Sun Wukong when they were young.

Opening the album cover, Gu Suixing looked at the first baby photo.

The photo album given to me by Sister-in-law Dou contains photos of Rui Rui from two months old to four years old, one photo per month, and another photo taken on her birthday, totaling more than fifty photos. The date is in the upper left corner of each photo.

I don't know if it was Dou's eldest sister-in-law who wanted to take the photos, or if Lu Fenghe or Dou Meijuan asked her to take them. In any case, she really put her heart into it and raised Rui Rui very well.

Lu Fengqing glanced at the date on the photo. "This was when Rui Rui was two months old."

Children grow quickly, especially infants who change every day. Rui Rui was only a month old when she left City A, and the image before her was somewhat unfamiliar to Lu Fengqing. By this time, Rui Rui had grown up and was rounder than when she last saw her, looking more like her.

Lu Fengqing said, "When I brought Rui Rui back, I promised him that I would take him to visit the Dou family every Chinese New Year."

Rui Rui heard her name called and looked up.

Gu Suixing nodded, "Of course."

Rui Rui's eyes crinkled into a smile as she continued looking at the photo album in her hands.

The room was quiet.

Adults and children exchanged photo albums, looking at the photos from their childhood with great focus.

Turning to the last page and looking at Rui Rui's fourth birthday photo, Lu Fengqing muttered, "They say sons resemble their mothers. When he first came back, he looked more like me, but now he looks more and more like you."

Rui Rui finished reading as well, staring at them with wide eyes and listening to them talk.

Gu Suixing calmly replied, "My temperament is like my mother's."

"..." So you're as easy to fool as she is?

Lu Fengqing pinched his waist in an annoyed manner.

Gu Suixing smiled, put his arm around Lu Fengqing's waist, pulled her into his arms, said "Close your eyes" to Rui Rui, and lowered his head to kiss those two red lips.

Rui Rui covered her eyes with both hands, then slowly opened her fingers a crack, her face full of curiosity.

Lu Fengqing blushed, pushed Gu Suixing away, and glared at him, "Watch your temper."

Rui Rui is still here!

Gu Suixing glanced at Rui Rui and said leisurely, "He needs to learn to get used to it."

Lu Fengqing thought to herself, "What kind of habit are you in? Stop doing this kind of thing in front of the children." She looked at Rui Rui with pleading eyes.

Even now, Rui Rui still hasn't spoken to her, let alone called her name.

Rui Rui slowly raised the photo album in her hand to cover her face.

"..." Lu Fengqing's gaze became even more resentful.

The breakfast brought up by the maid was already cold. Gu Suixing didn't ask the maid to come up and change it. She got up and went to the small table to eat her breakfast.

Lu Fengqing immediately moved in front of Rui Rui and took the photo album from his hand.

Rui Rui instinctively wanted to run away.

Lu Fengqing hugged him tightly, burying her face in his neck and nuzzling him. "Rui Rui, please forgive Mommy. Mommy promises I will never abandon Rui Rui again."

Rui Rui blinked but didn't move.

Lu Fengqing continued, "If Rui Rui doesn't forgive Mommy, Mommy won't let go. Whether Rui Rui needs to go to the toilet or take a bath, Mommy will hold you like this."

Rui Rui shuddered slightly, as if she had just thought of something.

Seeing that Rui Rui remained silent, Lu Fengqing raised her head and gave her a few kisses on her fair little face. "Mommy always keeps her promises, Rui Rui. Don't be angry with Mommy anymore, okay? Okay, okay? Mommy loves you the most, Rui Rui~"

No one can resist such a clingy Sailor Moon, at least not Rarity.

Rui Rui's heart softened, and two blushes rose on her cheeks. She twisted her little body uncomfortably, "I need to pee."

Lu Fengqing's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "Mommy will carry you."

Rui Rui: "...No."

Lu Fengqing called out pitifully, "Rui Rui~"

Rui Rui said awkwardly, "When you grow up, you can shh yourself."

Lu Fengqing: "...No matter how old Rui Rui is, she will always be her mother's little darling."

Rui Rui thought for a moment, then leaned over and kissed Lu Fengqing's cheek. "Good girl."

Lu Fengqing felt as if an electric current had passed through her heart, and her heartbeat quickened in an instant. "Okay, okay, Mommy will be good, Mommy won't go."

Rui Rui nodded, climbed off the bed, put on her little slippers, and ran outside.

Lu Fengqing watched his little figure disappear through the door, clutching her pounding heart, thinking to herself, "How did I manage to give birth to such a child? My son is so adorable."

It's so cute that I wish I could carry it in my pocket 24/7.

As Lu Fengqing was thinking, she turned around and met Gu Suixing's dark, captivating eyes.

Lu Fengqing felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze. "...What are you doing?"

Gu Suixing asked, "Why don't you act cute and affectionate with me?"

"..." Lu Fengqing blushed slightly, covered her mouth and coughed lightly, "Just think about it."

If she's going to act all coquettish with Gu Suixing like she did just now, it's better to just kill her.

Gu Suixing looked at her for a moment, then said, "Come here."

Lu Fengqing didn't think much of it and got up to walk over.

Gu Suixing pulled her to sit down beside him, "Call me in the same tone you used before."

Lu Fengqing: "...What kind of tone?"

Gu Suixing: "The kind with tildes."

Lu Fengqing: "..."

"Or you can moan in bed if you want."

"..."

Lu Fengqing, embarrassed and annoyed, grabbed the spoon from the bowl and shoved it into Gu Suixing's mouth, saying, "Even eating can't shut you up!"

With a spoon in his mouth, Gu Suixing suddenly understood his father.

I understand why his dad always wanted to send him away when he was little. Having a daughter is called "doing whatever you want," while having a son is called "casual"—there's a reason for that.

Thinking about how this heartless woman got engaged to another man in order to take back her son, and how she valued this little thing more than him, Gu Suixing thought to himself, why should he still acknowledge his son? He just wanted to get rid of that little thing who was stealing his wife.

Gu Suixing took the spoon away and sneered, "What, you can be so charming with other men, but not with me?"

"What other man?!" Lu Fengqing wanted to strangle him. "That's your son!"

Gu Suixing: "Won't he be someone else's man in the future?"

"..." Lu Fengqing snatched the spoon from his hand, "Stop eating, you're too full."

Always looking for trouble!

Gu Suixing watched Lu Fengqing clear away the dishes without stopping her.

Let this woman be smug for a while longer. Once his leg is healed, he'll make her cry out in pain.

-

Upon hearing the news that Old Master Lu's condition had worsened, the rest of the Lu family returned home one after another that evening.

When Rui Rui saw Lu Fenghe return, she immediately took a step forward and rushed over, hugging his leg and looking up at him.
