Chapter 727: Lianwu Would Never Lie to Her!
The father and daughter exchanged a glance, Su Yu bent down and picked up Xiao Xue, and the two went out together.
In the living room, only then did Xiao Xue, holding onto Su Yu’s neck, ask puzzledly, "Why didn’t Mother get angry before when I didn’t knock, but today she did?"
"Because..." Su Yu was just about to explain to Xiao Xue when a cool voice interrupted.
"Because you came at a bad time." Lianwu hugged her arms, leaning against the door.
Xiao Xue asked blankly, "What do you mean by a bad time?"
Lianwu beckoned to Xiao Xue with a finger.
Xiao Xue immediately slipped down from Su Yu’s arms and ran to Lianwu’s side.
Su Yu...
Lianwu bent down, scooped up Xiao Xue, and turned to leave.
"Where are you going?" Su Yu spoke, his gaze scrutinizing Lianwu.
Lianwu was completely unconcerned with Su Yu’s gaze, instead curling her lips, "Is it your business?"
Su Yu...
Before he could speak again, the two had already disappeared.
Back then, he had Xiao Xue complete the Blood Covenant with Lianwu to prevent Lianwu from harming Xiao Xue, but now... seeing Xiao Xue’s wholehearted trust in Lianwu, he suddenly wondered if he had made a mistake.
Su Yu began to doubt his life a little.
When Han Jing finished getting ready and came out, she saw Su Yu sitting alone in the living room, Xiao Xue was nowhere to be seen.
She couldn’t help but frown, "Where’s Xiao Xue? Did I scare her off by shouting at her?"
Before, when Su Yu wasn’t around, they let her act up, and today, unexpectedly catching them together, Han Jing had shouted at her without explaining, and now the little girl was nowhere to be seen, did she hide to sulk?
"Lianwu took her out." Su Yu still frowned lightly.
Upon hearing that Xiao Xue was with Lianwu, Han Jing breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good."
Su Yu raised an eyebrow at her, "You feel reassured too?"
Han Jing was puzzled, "Why wouldn’t I be?"
Su Yu...
"Xiao Xue seems to trust Lianwu too much," Su Yu expressed his frustration.
His time spent with Xiao Xue was too little to figure out her nature, does she trust everyone like this, or just Lianwu?
Han Jing scooted closer, blinking, "You noticed too!"
Seeing Han Jing’s eagerness, Su Yu couldn’t help but puzzle, "Don’t you think this is inappropriate?"
Han Jing shook her head, "No, I think it’s great."
Su Yu... Did she understand what he meant?
Han Jing was still amused, "Yesterday, the little girl said Lianwu was too poor, and she wanted to save up more dowry."
The wine glass Su Yu was playing with shattered with a "bang" in his hand, and he turned his head, incredulous, staring at Han Jing, "You let her mess around like this, she’s only five!"
Han Jing rested her chin on her hand, staring at Su Yu, tapping her fingers lightly, "What’s wrong with being five? She’s an independent person, as long as I teach her rationale, she’ll think for herself. As long as we don’t guide her the wrong way, she can decide what she wants to do and who to like. As long as she’s happy, isn’t that what matters?"
Su Yu nearly spat blood, "You’re talking about feelings with a five-year-old? Aren’t you afraid she’ll be deceived?"
So all these years, this was how Han Jing educated the child?
"I don’t know if others would deceive her, but Lianwu definitely wouldn’t!" Han Jing told Su Yu, "No matter how powerful Lianwu is, he can’t escape the palm of Xiao Xue’s hand!"
