บรรณาธิการ: EndlessFantasy Translation
An arrogant look flashed across Leng Yejin's grim face. "I'm afraid it's quite hard to find a man who has 'a bigger tool and greater stamina' than me."
Shanshan's big eyes blinked. She had an innocent look on her face. "Mum, is that true?"
Tong Lu bit her lip tightly and shot Leng Yejin a glare. "I don't know."
Leng Yejin looked back at her, as if trying to say, 'Are you sure you don't know?'
Tong Lu stared back. 'How would I know?'
Leng Yejin held her gaze. 'Fine!'
Shanshan blinked her big and shiny eyes once more. 'Why is it that even though dad and mum have not spoken a word, they still look as if they have spoken to each other?'
Ah, she knew what was going on. "Dad, mum, are the two of you giving each other the eye?"
The two adults, who were glaring at each other, suddenly choked on their food and said at the same time, "Shanshan, don't speak while eating!"
'Uhmm~ why are they scolding me for pointing out a fact?'
Shanshan bit her lip glumly. The adult's world was full of pretense! No way. She must make dad her mum's husband. She wanted a happy family of three!
Tong Lu just wanted to quickly finish her breakfast and avoid further embarrassment at the dining table.
There were so many servants in the room. If they noticed that something was off and went out to spread rumors, she would get into trouble again.
It did not matter who she seduced, be it the British prime minister or her own brother-in-law. Either one of those accusations could destroy her reputation and ruin her life.
The APEC Meeting had come to a perfect end yesterday. It was now the weekend. Tong Lu took Shanshan out to fly a kite in the manor. They ran into Eldress Leng in the manor. The elderly lady adored her great granddaughter very much and stood in a corner to watch the child fly her kite.
"Shanshan, don't run so fast. Watch out so that you don't trip and fall."
"Heheheh. Weeeeee...
"Mum, look, the kite is flying high."
Shanshan pointed to the kite in the sky in a dorky and adorable manner. She was incredibly excited.
Tong Lu quickly took a few strides ahead and lifted her in her arms. She held the child as though she was holding the most precious thing on earth.
"Look at you. You ran so much that you're completely drenched in sweat. Let me wipe it for you."
"I'm going to wipe your sweat for you too."
Little Shanshan raised her hand and started copying Tong Lu. Her clear and glimmering eyes narrowed into two little crescents when she smiled.
"She's such a sweet little child." The old lady smiled with an adoring look on her face. "How old are you, Little Lu?"
"I'm twenty-two, grandma."
"Great grandmother, I'm five."
"Shanshan, my good girl." The old lady pinched Shanshan's small rosy face and said to Tong Lu, "You have lived a difficult life, marrying Shuo at such a young age and looking after Shanshan for him. You're trapped in a marriage with a dead person. Have you considered remarrying?"
Tong Lu said, "... Actually, Shuo stated in his will that I'm not allowed to remarry."
"What are you talking about? You're still young. Do you want to live the rest of your life as a widow? The Leng family doesn't have such a cruel and heartless rule."
Eldress Leng took Shanshan from her arms. "Perhaps Shuo was worried that no one would take care of Shanshan. That was why he made such an unreasonable request. But it is different now. You don't have to worry about who is going to look after Shanshan at all. Look, you're so young. You can start planning your future. Besides, your current living arrangement with Jin is a little inappropriate."
Tong Lu immediately understood what Eldress Leng meant and felt slightly embarrassed.
"Grandma, don't worry. I'll move out when the time is right."
"I'm not trying to chase you out." Eldress Leng was relieved that she was being so understanding. "It's just that Jin is now engaged. If the two of you live together, his fiancée's family won't be too happy with this arrangement. If you have someone you like, you may start a new relationship without fear or worries. Our family is not that old-fashioned. I won't force my grand-daughter-in-law to be a widow for the rest of her life."
