Ah Lu was excited, but then he quickly remembered that his mother wouldn't allow him to keep a dog.
If he keeps a dog at home, will his mother be unhappy?
The little guy turned his head and glanced at Tang Li.
"Mom, can I keep it?"
Tang Li was stunned for a moment.
Lu Jianshen has already allowed his son to keep dogs in his villa, so it would be inappropriate for Tang Li to stand up and oppose her son keeping dogs at this time. She would seem like a stepmother!
After all, he's his precious son; besides, it's just a puppy.
Tang Li had no reason to refuse A Lu.
"Of course you can. It's your freedom to keep a puppy. However, you'll have to take good care of it and be responsible for your pet."
Upon hearing this, A-Lu tilted his head, looking somewhat troubled.
"Mom, I spend most of my time at kindergarten, so I might need you to walk the dog and feed it for me."
Tang Li: ...
It seems so. Although the dog is raised by the son, the person who takes care of it most of the time is the mother.
No wonder, you need your permission to keep a dog.
"Can."
Tang Li nodded in agreement.
When she was little, she had thought about having a dog, but her parents stopped her from doing so.
Unexpectedly, after growing up, I had the opportunity to walk and raise dogs because of my son.
Ah Lu was very happy. After holding the puppy and hesitating for a while, he named the dog Xiao Si.
Tang Li looked at her son with a puzzled expression, not quite understanding what he was thinking.
"Xiao Si, don't you think this name is strange?"
Ah Lu didn't feel that way; he genuinely considered the dog as part of his family.
"From now on, Xiao Si will be my younger brother, Mom. Think about it, our family has Dad, Mom, and me. I'm the third child, so he should be the fourth!"
Forehead……
That sounds reasonable.
But who would truly consider a puppy a member of the family?
"Mom, don't you like Xiao Si?"
Tang Li lowered her head, looking at the fluffy little guy in her arms, her heart softening completely; of course, she liked him very much.
“Sure,” Tang Li nodded in agreement. “Then let’s call it Xiao Si, it’s a cute name.”
Ah Lu liked it very much and carried Xiao Si into the living room.
"Mom, after school today, will you come with me to the pet store to buy it a bed and a bowl for Xiao Si's food?"
Tang Li nodded. Having a little dog is quite nice.
Her son has become so attentive; he even knows how to take care of the puppy. This should be beneficial for his development.
However, Tang Li thought about it again and felt that something was not quite right.
Chen Lei is such a thoughtful person, he brought over a puppy, but didn't he prepare anything else?
“I’ll give your Uncle Chen Lei a call. Maybe he prepared these things but forgot to bring them up.”
The call was answered immediately.
But Chen Lei explained, "Miss Tang, why don't you take A-Lu out to buy these together? That way, A-Lu can be fully involved."
Chen Lei's considerations were quite thorough. Tang Li didn't think much of it, only feeling that this was a good way to cultivate her son's sense of responsibility and attentiveness.
Ah Lu must take good care of Xiao Si, the new member.
"I'll take you to the mall after school today. Tell me what you need to buy. But remember, you still need to listen carefully to the teacher in class!"
A-Lu nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, Mom!"
Tang Li originally thought that it was just about getting a dog, which wouldn't change anything, at most it would just be adding a small pet to the house.
However, without realizing it, some things have changed.
Their home is becoming more and more like a home, with a family atmosphere, a sense of cohesion, and a gradually forming warm atmosphere.
Tang Li felt that these days, her daily life was becoming more and more like that of a lady of the house.
Even though she told herself that she and Lu Jianshen were divorced and were just living under the same roof now.
Yet something is still changing silently.
Tang Li always felt that she should keep her distance from Lu Jianshen and not get too close, as it would be easy to cause misunderstandings if they acted like family.
At these times, Lu Jianshen always seemed to be able to sense it in time. He would use a business trip as an excuse to leave Beijing, so that Tang Li would have a chance to re-establish a sense of distance.
This kind of daily routine made Tang Li feel very relaxed, and she even developed a sense of dependence on it. She gradually adapted to it!
Like a frog being slowly boiled in water, the frog has already adapted to the water temperature.
In the CEO's office.
Lu Jianshen had just returned from a business trip and brought a gift for Tang Li.
It wasn't expensive diamonds or jewelry, just a very ordinary gift: pastries from Suzhou, soft, sweet, and delicious, which Tang Li really liked.
Chen Lei, looking pleased with himself, said, "Boss, isn't my girlfriend's idea great? Getting a pet means Miss Tang can rest assured that A-Lu is growing up and can take care of himself. But a dog is different; Miss Tang has to take care of the dog herself."
Lu Jianshen nodded, wondering where Chen Lei's girlfriend got so many good ideas.
Now he has his son helping him out. Although they haven't remarried, he and Tang Li are becoming more and more like an ordinary couple.
Tang Li's resistance to marriage and her wariness of him were clearly dissipating little by little.
"Keep going, and you should succeed soon."
Guide them patiently and gently; do not rush them.
Lu Jianshen had already made up his mind that he needed to stabilize both his career and his family.
Even if it involves a little trickery, it's a kind of wisdom born of desperation!
