My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 573 - 029: _2

However, she is at an age without worries, with food, drink, and a love for laughter. It’s quite good; she doesn’t have to worry about many things. No matter what happens, at least there’s Nan Jiayan supporting her, so it’s not too difficult.

"Well, it’s still early now. Should we go for a walk? Speaking of which, I haven’t gone shopping for a long time, let alone with you guys. Since I returned, I’ve been busy with transition matters. It’s rare to have some free time today. Do you want to go shopping together?"

"Sure! I don’t have anything to do today, so let’s go shopping!"

"Let’s go around Zhongshan Street! It’s been a long time since I’ve been there, and I kind of miss it. We used to go there often when we were studying."

"Okay, I haven’t been there for two or three years either." Lu Shishu has relatively few hobbies; she’s someone who enjoys peace and doesn’t love hustle and bustle. Usually, she stays at home watching TV, movies, or drawing. If it weren’t for Cen Jin and Yu Feici calling her, she wouldn’t easily go out.

"It’s been that long?"

"Do you think I’m the type of person who would shop on my own?"

"No."

"Exactly. I’m so used to buying things online that I don’t want to go out and feel tired." Lu Shishu pouted, resting her chin on her hand. "Little Yu’er, hurry and finish eating, then we can go shopping to buy you a beautiful dress, okay?"

"Really?"

"Yes, of course it’s real."

"Yay!" The little girl immediately gobbled up the last two bites of cake, and before swallowing, she looked at Lu Shishu with eyes full of sweet smiles. "Pretty sister, I’m done eating."

"Good, look at your little mouth." Lu Shishu took a napkin and wiped her mouth clean, then stood up, picked up her bag, paid the bill, and took Little Yu’er’s hand, leaving the tea restaurant with He Qianyue.

Since He Qianyue also drove herself, they both drove to Zhongshan Street to meet up. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

As they approached Zhongshan Street, Lu Shishu received a call from Nan Jiayan. Seeing the caller ID, she hesitated for two seconds before reluctantly answering but didn’t speak first.

"Sorry, I just saw your WeChat message. Where are you now?" The familiar deep and steady male voice came through from the other end of the line.

Lu Shishu was slightly startled, calmly replied, "About to go to Zhongshan Street."

"Going shopping?"

"Yeah."

"With Little Yu’er..."

"Together."

"I have some things to handle here. I’ll come find you later."

"Suit yourself; I have a meal appointment with Yuanyuan."

"You and He Qianyue?"

"Yes."

Hearing that, Nan Jiayan suddenly felt a bit of a headache. The thought of these two wine lovers at a dinner is unimaginable, but he couldn’t say anything outright. He simply replied, "Dinner is fine, but drink less. If you do drink, don’t drive. I’ll come pick you up, understood?"

Listening to his nagging, she felt a bit speechless, yet didn’t dislike it. Instead, there was a tinge of comfort and sweetness. Lu Shishu tried hard to suppress her rising lips, indifferently responding, "Got it, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up." With her words barely finished, she didn’t give Nan Jiayan a chance to reply and hung up directly.

"Sister, was that my brother calling?"

Seeing Lu Shishu hang up the call, Little Yu’er, seated in the rear, asked in a soft voice.

"Yes." Lu Shishu glanced at her and casually replied.

"Did brother say anything?"

"Not much, just asked if Little Yu’er ate well, behaved, and told me to take good care of you." Lu Shishu actually doesn’t like lying but found herself saying these lies to Little Yu’er easily, perhaps to fill the lack of security in her heart.

"Really? Did brother really ask about me?"

"Yes, he did!"

"Then tell brother that I behaved, had a good meal, and sister treated me very well and took great care of me. I really like sister."

"Does Little Yu’er really like me?" Listening to her soft voice, Lu Shishu felt her heart healed and particularly at ease.

"Yes! Mom says kids shouldn’t lie. Lying is wrong. We must be honest and trustworthy. If someone is good to me, I should remember and be good to them. So, sister, I’ll treat you well too! Just like how I treat brother!" Looking at Lu Shishu driving ahead, Little Yu’er said sincerely with an earnest expression on her face.
