Chapter 10: Barrier Lu Xiao nodded sensibly: "Yes, yes. ...
"Chengyu, are you really not going back home for the holiday this week?" Su Ranran sat next to Han Chengyu, her tone quite worried.
"Yeah." Han Chengyu played with Su Ranran's long hair, "Mom is still angry, I won't offend her for now."
"But, won't Auntie be even more angry if you do this?" Su Ranran frowned slightly, "Chengyu, I don't want you and your son to have a quarrel because of me. Otherwise, take me to meet Auntie! I will definitely try my best to make Auntie accept me."
Han Chengyu sighed: "My mother has a strong personality and will not tolerate disobedience. If you approach her now, she will just vent her anger on you."
"I'm fine, Chengyu." Su Ranran looked at Han Chengyu earnestly, "I like you, so I will try my best to change Auntie's impression of me."
"But I like you too, Ranran, so I don't want to see you get wronged." Han Chengyu smiled and pinched Su Ranran's face, "Ranran, wait a little longer. My mother only has me as her son, and she will always compromise in the end. When my mother's attitude softens a little, I will take you to see her."
"Okay then!" Su Ranran nodded, and then reminded her worriedly: "You must communicate well with your aunt. It's not easy for your aunt to raise you all by herself. She also cares about you, so don't hurt her feelings."
"Yeah." Han Chengyu responded with a smile and sighed in his heart.
Ranran is so considerate and always thinks of me. Mom, she is really a good girl. Once you really get to know her, you will like her.
"Chengyu, you got 627 points in the mock exam this time, so there will be no problem for you to get into University A. The passing score for Jiaotong University next door was 529 last year, and I only got about 400 points this time. If I fail to get into Jiaotong University, you won't dislike me anymore, right?" Su Ranran said, and seemed to think of the scene of herself being ruthlessly abandoned, and looked at Han Chengyu angrily.
Han Chengyu laughed: "Silly girl, what are you talking about! Whether you can get into Jiaotong University has nothing to do with my liking you?"
"Why is it okay?" Su Ranran was anxious. "They say that A University produces beautiful women, and you are so handsome. When you go to A University, there will definitely be a lot of people who will be attracted to you. By then, you will be surrounded by beautiful women, so how can you think of me?"
"Thank you, Ranran, for praising me so much." Han Chengyu couldn't help laughing. Seeing Su Ranran's aggrieved look, he stopped laughing and said seriously, "But Ranran, I like you. I only see you. You are the most beautiful in my eyes. No matter how beautiful other people are, it has nothing to do with me."
"You just thought of me like that. Not only did you question my character, you also looked down on yourself. Don't do that again. Okay?"
Su Ranran pursed her lips and quickly shook her head: "I know, Chengyu, I was wrong. I promise, there won't be a next time." As she said that, she made a swearing gesture.
Han Chengyu reached out and smoothed Su Ranran's messy hair. "As for your grades, don't worry. I will give you extra lessons in the remaining two months. You have a good foundation. As long as you work hard in these two months, you will have no problem getting into Jiaotong University."
"Okay, Chengyu, I will study hard." Su Ranran smiled sweetly, "I will definitely be admitted to Jiaotong University and work hard to be closer to you, closer and closer."

"Ayi, I have found tutors for you. One is the top scorer in the science subject of J City's college entrance examination last year who was admitted to A University with 657 points. Another is an outstanding graduate of J University. We also have several full-time teachers with rich teaching experience." Ling Siyan put down her chopsticks and said to Ling Yi who was still drinking milk.
"They will come one after another after nine o'clock. You can try out their classes first and see who you like, and then keep them."
After wiping her mouth, Ling Siyan looked at Lu Xiao again: "Do you have anything to do today? If not, stay at home with Ayi and help check things out."
"I'm fine, but," Lu Xiao looked at Ling Yi who was drinking porridge with his head down: "Yier, do you have anything to say?"
Ling Yi glanced at Ling Siyan, then at Lu Xiao, and lowered his eyes, "No."
Ling Siyan and Lu Xiao looked at each other, and Ling Siyan said softly, "Ayi, your father just came back, and I haven't taken care of you in these years. We have been absent from your life for 13 years, and this is our dereliction of duty. In the days to come, we will try our best to be good parents. The gap created by 13 years is too deep, and in the process of getting along, Mom hopes that you can speak directly if you have any ideas."
Lu Xiao followed up: "If you tell us, we will know what you are thinking and what you want."
Ling Yi lowered his head and stirred the porridge in the bowl. After a while, he said, "I want... to teach me."
"What?" Lu Xiao didn't hear clearly, "Who do you want to teach you?"
Ling Yi said it again.
"You make me doubt that I'm old and half deaf." Lu Xiao said as he moved closer, "Say it again."
"Dad!" Ling Yi suddenly shouted loudly, "I want you to teach me." After that, he glanced at Lu Xiao and quickly lowered his head.
Lu Xiao looked at Ling Yi in a daze. He didn't expect that he would be willing to call him "Dad" so quickly.
Ling Siyan was also a little stunned, but when she thought of Ling Yi in her dream last night, she felt relieved.
Ling Yi is kind-hearted by nature and has never truly hated these irresponsible parents.
In front of outsiders, he was surly, aloof, full of thorns and difficult to get along with, but in front of her and Lu Xiao, he easily revealed his soft side.
Before this, Ling Siyan had always been grateful for being able to return to the past, but at this moment, she felt a little more regretful.
How great it would be if I could go back to the time when Ling Yi was just born.
Although the 13 years of absence of his parents can be made up for in the rest of his life, Ling Yi missed his childhood when he needed them the most and they can never get it back.
Then thinking of Han Chengyu, Ling Siyan couldn't help but wonder, they are brothers from the same mother, could it be that the father's genes really have such a big influence on the child?
This thought flashed through her mind, and Ling Siyan smiled and asked, "Why don't you let me teach you? I was a top student who graduated from University A at the age of 17 with a bachelor's and master's degree. Your father only managed to graduate from high school."
Lu Xiao touched his nose and looked at the clever cunning in Ling Siyan's eyes. He was dazed for a moment, as if he saw the unrestrained and famous first socialite in City A when he was young.
"But aren't you very busy? Besides," Ling Yi glanced at Ling Siyan, "didn't you say that dad scored close to a perfect score in the provincial college entrance examination that year?"
Lu Xiao looked at Ling Siyan with a teasing look in his eyes: Is this how you praise me in front of your son?
Ling Siyan looked back without showing any weakness: You are obviously telling the truth.
He asked again: "Your son wants you to teach him, do you have time?" There was a threat in his eyes: How dare you say you haven't tried it!
Lu Xiao nodded sensibly: "Yes, I have. You can go out and earn money to support the family, and I will stay at home to take care of my wife and children."
Ling Siyan rolled her eyes at Lu Xiao. Isn’t this a quiet guy?
Then he looked at Ling Yi and said, "Okay, then you should learn from your dad. When I finish dealing with the company's affairs, the three of us will go out and have some fun and relax."
Hearing the words "family of three", Lu Xiao's eyes lit up, and with a hint of joy that only he knew in his voice, he asked: "When will you finish your work?"
Seeing someone who was more anxious than Ling Yi but trying to be calm, Ling Siyan's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing. When she met Ling Yi's expectant eyes, she paused with a teasing smile, thought for a moment, and answered seriously, "It will probably take about a week."
Then he looked at Ling Yi: "Ayi, where do you want to go? You can think about it in advance and make a plan."
Ling Yi raised his eyes and looked at Ling Siyan: "Can we go anywhere?"
"Of course." Ling Siyan agreed readily.
"Then I'm going to the amusement park." Ling Yi seemed to have thought about it a long time ago and gave the answer quickly.
The lightness in the voice made Ling Siyan stunned. The sour feeling from the tip of her nose spread to her heart and penetrated into every part of her body.
The amusement park is a place Han Chengyu got tired of going to since she was 7 years old, but she has never taken Ling Yi there once in all these years.
Ling Siyan lowered her eyes to hide the embarrassment in her eyes. When she raised her eyes again, her expression was normal and she smiled and said, "Okay!"
After saying that, he stood up and said, "It's almost time, I should go out."
Lu Xiao stood up immediately and said, "I'll take you there."
No conversation along the way.
Lu Xiao stood beside Ling Siyan, and he could see her profile clearly with his peripheral vision, instead of only being able to see her back from behind like before.
He stood beside the bright moon. As long as he wanted, he could just stretch out his arms and embrace the bright moon in his arms.
This realization had already been engraved in his heart last night when he tossed and turned in the same bed together, but at this moment he still felt a sense of unreality as if he was in a dream.
Ling Siyan also enjoyed the tranquility at this moment.
The warm sun, the breeze, the person beside me, everything is just right.
Arriving at the underground garage, Ling Siyan opened the door of her car. Before getting in, she looked back and found that Lu Xiao was already standing outside the guide line. She didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
Ling Siyan simply closed the car door, leaned against it with his arms folded, and said jokingly: "You are so stupid, no wonder you haven't found a wife in all these years!"
A dark light flashed in Lu Xiao's eyes, and before Ling Siyan could react, he had already taken a big step forward. As the man approached, his tall and strong figure brought with him a strong sense of oppression.
Stretching out his hands to support Ling Siyan's sides, Lu Xiao looked at the woman under him with a dark and unclear look in his eyes.
Ling Siyan raised her eyebrows, "What do you want to do?"
Lu Xiao lowered his head and moved closer, his voice slightly lowered: "I haven't had a wife for so many years because the only one I want to marry is you."
The sudden confession made Ling Siyan stunned.
Before he could say anything, the light in front of his eyes dimmed and he felt a touch of warmth on his forehead, which disappeared as soon as it touched him.
Ling Siyan looked at the man who was about to retreat, curled her lips and smiled, stretched out her hands, hooked one hand around the man's neck, put the other hand on the back of his head, asked him to lower his head, and stood on tiptoes, her red lips accurately imprinted on the slightly open lips.
He even licked it with the tip of his tongue.
While the person was still in a daze, he pushed the person away, opened the door, and closed the door with extremely quick movements.
The car started slowly, and before the window went up, Ling Siyan smiled at Lu Xiao: "It tastes good."
"Just stay at home with your son and wait for me to come back."
