Chapter 272: The way of praising someone is quite unique.
Just as Lu Wanxing was about to get angry, she heard Lu Chengbo say calmly, "They all chose you, so their judgment is indeed better than yours."
Lu Wanxing: ......
The fire went out before it even got going.
So this is saying that you have bad taste, but the other person who chose you has good taste?
How am I supposed to respond to that?
Lu Wanxing gave him a disdainful sidelong glance.
"Your way of praising people is quite unique."
"Who praised you? I'm just telling the truth."
"Fine, based on what you've said, I won't reveal your position."
"Who told you that? I'm serious. The men you picked on the show were really mediocre. And there was another one who was just at the door. He didn't look very good either."
"How about I help raise your child since you took me in? I've accumulated some assets over the years, and we won't need a man getting in our way."
Lu Wanxing: ......
"I now suspect that you are trying to break up our family."
Lu Chengbo touched his nose guiltily.
"No, no, that's not true! I just think that man isn't right for you. Besides, men will only slow down our sword-drawing speed."
Lu Wanxing glanced at him sideways.
"So, you're going to say that to your runaway wife too?"
"No way! My wife is different. She's delicate and can't take care of herself. She needs me."
Lu Wanxing almost rolled her eyes.
I don't know how this person can lie so blatantly.
And now you're saying such disgusting and nauseating things.
"Okay, okay, only your wife needs it, none of us need it."
"Oh no, that's not what I meant. It's just that seeing you always arguing with that guy outside made me feel it wasn't right."
Lu Chengbo said weakly from the side.
He was also afraid that if he spoke too harshly now, his daughter would dislike him, which would be bad.
So now we can only try to make up for it.
Besides, he felt that his daughter was still young, and even if she didn't get married and stayed with him, he would still be able to support her family.
His words silenced Lu Wanxing.
After all, what they said wasn't wrong.
If this matter isn't resolved properly, there's truly no future for her and Bo Sinian.
She had asked herself before if she would be able to stay with Bo Sinian without caring about the matter, but she later realized that she really couldn't do it.
She couldn't pretend nothing had happened, and she couldn't let Xiao Xiao just disappear from their lives.
So she might have to put up with her occasionally trying to disgust her, or having her use things from their past relationship to disgust her, which she feels she can't do.
And I don't want to waste so much time on someone unimportant.
Lu Wanxing didn't think it was worth it.
So if you can't stand it anymore, then you should also remove that person from your life.
The two will likely have no further connection beyond their child.
So now that Lu Chengbo is talking about this, she doesn't think he did anything wrong.
"Hmm, what you said makes sense. Maybe we really aren't a good match."
She said it softly before looking at him.
"Alright, I'll have someone tidy things up. You can stay here."
Seeing her visibly downcast mood, Lu Chengbo was at a loss.
He didn't know if he had done something wrong, but... he could clearly sense that Lu Wanxing was really troubled this time.
I initially thought it was just a simple argument, but seeing her expression this time, it seemed like that wasn't the case.
However, this topic was not continued at this point.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, since you took me in this time, I'll take care of anything the child needs in the future. If we run out of money to raise the child, I'll take responsibility."
Lu Chengbo said with a proud expression.
"I knew you were rich, but I didn't expect you to still like being taken advantage of."
Lu Wanxing chuckled softly.
Lu Chengbo glanced at her sideways and said, "Just assume I have money to burn, that's why I'm telling you this."
He didn't mind at all that Lu Wanxing called him a sucker; it wasn't like no one had ever called him that before.
The maid quickly prepared the room. There was a room on the first floor, which was quite large. It was originally intended as a room for elders, so Lu Chengbo moved in.
"Do you really think the news of your return to China won't leak out?"
"No, don't worry, I'm definitely staying at your place."
Despite saying that, when Lu Wanxing turned to leave, she quickly contacted someone to hide her whereabouts.
"Remember to make sure the person playing me acts convincingly."
He made several phone calls in a row, acting suspiciously. Anyone who didn't know better would think he wasn't returning to China, but rather hiding from enemies.
Lu Chengbo stayed behind and was busy doing something in his room. Around noon, Lu Wanxing came downstairs and saw him working in the kitchen.
Her brow furrowed.
I walked over immediately and heard the auntie who was cooking talking.
"Oh, sir, I'll do it, please go outside and sit down."
"It's okay, I can manage. I'm staying at someone's house, so I can't just do nothing. Don't worry, I learn things very quickly."
No sooner had she finished speaking than she heard her aunt's hurried voice.
"Oops, it's burnt!"
Lu Wanxing: ......
So why is this person so obsessed with cooking?
Did you even burn the food?
Lu Chengbo, who had been full of confidence just moments before, now looked rather dejected.
More importantly, when he looked up, he saw Lu Wanxing.
He immediately felt even more embarrassed.
"That, that was all an accident."
I don't even have much confidence in what I'm saying.
I originally thought that I couldn't just stay at home doing nothing; at least I should cook a meal for my daughter to improve my image.
As it turns out... I don't seem to have much talent for cooking.
So many years have passed, and it seems there's been no progress?
If I had known this day would come, I should have worked hard to hone my culinary skills during these more than twenty years of separation.
Otherwise, things wouldn't have turned out like this.
"You still want to cook?"
Lu Wanxing looked at him with some hesitation.
This child clearly grew up in a large family, someone who is used to being waited on hand and foot, yet he still wants to cook for himself.
