Chapter 302 – If I meet a woman like you, I would immediately marry her (1)

Lu Shaoyan had come here earlier than anyone else. He had been coming over to the ancestral home fairly regularly in the past two year. It seemed as if he really wanted to make up for the missed bonding time between father and son.

Seeing him repeatedly, Old Master Lu recalled the regrets of the past. He was naturally more lenient towards his youngest son than others because of this. Thus, when everyone was properly sitting up in the living room and drinking tea and chatting, Lu Shaoyan was crookedly lying on the sofa, half-asleep. In front of so many of his elders, he showed no regard for manners!

Sitting on Old Master Lu’s lap, Zhouzhou was still stretching his head and left hand out towards the shiny bauble.

Old Master Lu scolded Lu Shaoyan with a smile, “There are so many elders here. Mind your manners! Get over here!”

Lu Shaoyan paid no attention to his father’s words. His lips quirked up in a small smile. He languidly got up and sat down beside Lu Beichuan. The bauble he had been toying with was just a white light ball. It was a very ordinary toy, but Zhouzhou liked this type of brightly lit toy.

“Call Uncle and Uncle will give you this toy.” Lu Shaoyan deliberately showed off the toy in front of Zhouzhou.

“You’re two generations above Zhouzhou. How can you tell him to call you uncle? So shameless!” Old Master Lu couldn’t do anything about Lu Shaoyan, so he quietly coaxed Zhouzhou, “Call him Great-Uncle.”

Zhouzhou looked at Lu Shaoyan with his eyes wide open, and then he questiongly looked at his dad. He was at a loss.

“Dad.” Lu Shaoyan laughed, “Is it suitable for me to be Great-Uncle at such a young age? Look, even Zhouzhou agrees that’s not suitable. Isn’t that right, Zhouzhou?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhouzhou’s gaze was riveted on the small light ball that Lu Shaoyan was holding, and he half-heartedly nodded. His nod pleased Lu Shaoyan, and Zhouzhou succeeded in getting the toy.

“No sense of propriety!” Old Master Lu continued to scold, “Zhouzhou is already two years old, and you’re still playing around!”

On the side, someone smiled and tried to smooth things over, “Old Master, children are responsible for their own lives. The thinking of today’s youth is different from ours. In their eyes, we’re old-fashioned and stubbornly adherent to old ideas! Those new things of theirs, we can’t accept them. The way they live their lives, we don’t have the time to keep an eye on that.”

Old Master Lu seemed to accept these words. Feeling the same way, he nodded and sighed. “You’re right.”

This discussion had lowered the mood, so several people persuaded, talked, and smiled to sweep this topic under the rug.

Lu Shaoyan looked at Lu Beichuan and smiled. “In the blink of an eye, Zhouzhou is already two years old. It’s been a long time since we last saw each other.”

Since Lu Shaoyan had brought Lin Zhan to see Old Master Lu, he didn’t expect his relationship with Lu Beichuan to be as good as it was in the past. He had pondered it over and thought Lu Beichuan would still have some affection for him. As long as he explained himself and recounted his hidden difficulties, their relationship shouldn’t be that bad.

Unexpectedly, this Lin Zhan seemed to have touched Lu Beichuan’s sore spot. He and Lu Beichuan had become estranged since then.

Regardless, he had already done it. Lu Shaoyan didn’t regret it.

Lu Beichuan didn’t want to talk to him and perfunctorily answered, “I’ve been busy. There are many things to do.”

“I understand.” Lu Shaoyan was always thick-skinned. After saying a few words of pleasantries, he looked at Ye Zhen. “I heard about Qinhua’s Riverside and that the producer of that movie is someone named Ye Zhen. That can’t be you, right?”

His faked surprised voice was asking for a beating.

Ye Zhen faintly smiled. “It’s me.”

Lu Shaoyan clapped his hands. “Amazing.”

“It’s nothing.”

Lu Shaoyan sighed and said, “Dad is always saying that I’m loafing around every day, not doing anything significant. He scolds me for not finding a girlfriend. Zhenzhen, you’re so amazing. If I meet a woman like you, I would immediately marry her!”
