I Became the Male Lead's Stepmother After Transmigrating Novel - Chapter 28

Chapter 28: Father and Son Meet

Lu Wanggui’s car had a soundproof panel. With a push of his fingers, the driver’s seat in the front row and the back seat were separated into two spaces.

“Is your body okay?” Lu Wanggui asked.

“Yes.” Lu Bei nodded.

16 to 17 year-old boys were as strong as an ox. After taking the medicine, he sweated and went to school fine the next day.

Lu Wanggui nodded as well and did not speak again.

The relationship between the father and son was indeed not very close, but it was not as bad as outsiders had imagined. However, the two of them were not talkative people, and the scene of them getting along with each other inevitably made people feel strange.

After a long time, Lu Bei said, “Have you looked at my report card?”

Lu Wanggui said, “I have.”

His expression was no different from usual. Unlike other parents, he would scold and hit his son when he saw his son’s results. However, Lu Bei felt that he would rather Lu Wanggui beat him and scold him than see him look so calm. It seemed that it did not matter whether his results were good or bad.

Lu Bei turned his head to look out of the window and said stiffly, “Aren’t you angry? My results are so bad…”

Lu Wanggui took his glasses and wiped them slowly, “You’re 16 years old.”

At this age, he should be responsible for his own actions.

“You have your own ideas and your own choices. I won’t interfere in these things. The only thing I can do for you is to ensure that no matter which path you choose, you won’t worry about money.”

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll go astray? I heard that many children do things that they shouldn’t do at such a young age…” Lu bei said incoherently.

“Lu Bei, you’re my, Lu Wanggui’s, son.”

Lu Wanggui looked at him indifferently. “I know what kind of personality you have. Even if you’re a little capricious sometimes, you’re not a bad person by nature. You won’t do things that you shouldn’t do.”

Lu Bei couldn’t say how he was feeling.

He mustered up his courage to change the relationship between father and son, but in the end, it was like punching cotton. He had done so many things, but in the end, in the eyes of his father, he was just “a little capricious.”

Lu Bei completely shut his mouth and didn’t speak anymore. Sometimes, he would have an unrealistic fantasy. If only Lu Wanggui wasn’t his father, if only he wasn’t born in the Lu family… he didn’t need a rich life, he only wanted a pair of normal parents and a happy and comfortable home.

…

Xiang Xiaoyuan arrived home early. When she was changing her shoes at the door, she happened to see the butler and Nanny Zhang carrying the suitcase upstairs.

The black suitcase was obviously Lu Wanggui’s.

He came back too suddenly today and was completely out of Xiang Xiaoyuan’s plans. She remembered that the master bedroom was full of her things, she quickly said to the butler, “Butler, Nanny Zhang, after you put the luggage back into the room, you can tidy up the room a little. You also need to change the bedsheets and covers…”

Xiang Xiaoyuan was still a little depressed when she remembered that such a large master bedroom was no longer hers alone. A luxurious life would indeed bewitch one’s mind. How long had she been living it? She had already begun to degenerate.

The butler was stunned for a moment. Why did he remember that his master had called him to tell him to put the suitcase in the study?

However, he quickly realized that maybe he had heard wrongly. Since his wife said to put it in the master bedroom, then let’s put it in the master bedroom.

Thinking of this, he and Nanny Zhang quickly sent the suitcase into the master bedroom.

In a short period of time, Xiang Xiaoyuan’s phone was vibrating non-stop. There were not many people in the original owner’s contact list, and the only ones who could be sending so many messages were the new parents.

She picked up her phone and took a look. Sure enough, there was a parent in the parents’ group who took the initiative to mention the thing that Xiang Xiaoyuan cared most about: [@Lu Bei’s aunt, Mrs. Lu, there’s something I forgot to tell you. We’ve discussed it before, no matter who becomes the parent representative, we won’t let her do it for free. Originally, we wanted to buy something to express our gratitude, but we don’t know what you like, Mrs. Lu, so after thinking about it, we decided to transfer the money to you. ]

After entering the group, she needed to change her profile name. At first glance, the group was filled with so-and-so’s mother and so-and-so’s father. Xiang Xiaoyuan admitted that she could not name herself “Lu Bei’s mother”, so she calmly changed her name to “Lu Bei’s aunt”, this also prevented other parents from feeling awkward when they saw her.

Although Xiang Xiaoyuan loved money, she also cared about her face. She would not directly express her desire for this “gift of gratitude”. Moreover, she was not only Xiang Xiaoyuan, but also Mrs. Lu. She had to be more reserved.

She edited her response again and again. After deliberating for a long time to confirm that there were no problems with the reply, she clicked send.

[ @everyone, everyone is too polite. It is for the children’s good. Don’t be too polite. There is no need to transfer money, and there is no need to buy things. I do not have much experience in being a parent and do not know how long I can be the representative for.. But do not worry, I will definitely treat it seriously and do my best to give the children the best learning environment! ]
