Upon hearing this, Ning Wan laughed in exasperation: "If that's the case, why did you sneak out and bring Shen Xu home?"

“But the young man isn’t a stranger…” Ning Yanshu timidly raised her head, trying to argue, “He’s Dad’s younger brother, Xiaoshu’s uncle…”

Ning Wan and Shen Fu locked eyes.

057 has a gut feeling that something is wrong.

Shen Fu asked, "How did Xiao Shu know he was his uncle? And how did she find him?"

Alarm bells immediately rang in 057's mind.

057: [No, no, no! I can't let them know I exist!!!]

Ning Wan saw Ning Yanshu staring at the air and gave him a rather mournful look.

Then he said, "It won't let me speak."

"who?"

"it."

Who is it?

Ning Yanshu glanced at 057 again, and seeing it shaking its head frantically, she had no choice but to answer, "It won't let me say it."

Ning Wan: "..."

...

Well, we've come full circle.

Shen Fu patted Ning Wan on the shoulder, signaling her not to rush and to let him handle it.

Ning Wan had no choice but to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner, leaving the father and son in the living room.

Shen Fu picked up Ning Yanshu, who was kneeling on the ground, and sat her down on the sofa.

With the gentlest voice he had ever used, he patiently asked Ning Yanshu, "Then, will it hurt you?"

Ning Yanshu looked puzzled.

He looked at 057 again.

057's brains were practically splattering: 【No, no. I swear, I would never hurt you!】

"It swore it wouldn't."

Moreover, Xiaoqi has never hurt him during this time.

Therefore, Ning Yanshu still trusted it in her heart.

“In that case, Mom and Dad will no longer concern themselves with this mysterious friend, Little Book. But you must promise us…” Shen Fu held up his little finger: “No matter what happens, you must tell Mom and Dad. And you must never put yourself in danger.”

Ning Yanshu looked at the hand in front of him, then glanced at Shen Fu.

Shen Fu said, "This is Xiao Shu's first promise to her father. Can you keep it?"

Ning Yanshu's expression was serious.

He solemnly extended his little finger and hooked it, confidently assuring everyone, "The little book is fine!"...
