Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 357 - 370: Feelings for Jue

Su Xingyu returned home, her face filled with exhaustion.

Ouyang Yi had a big night scene to shoot today, and he still wasn’t back at this hour.

In the large castle-like house, only Han was there. Han rubbed his eyes and walked out in a bear-themed pajama, stretching out his chubby little hands for a hug, "Mom, I’m hungry."

She picked him up and asked tenderly, "It’s already eight o’clock. Why haven’t you eaten yet?"

"I wanted to wait for you, Mom." Han’s voice was soft and tender.

Su Xingyu’s heart ached; this child was nothing like Lu Shifeng. The colder that man was, the gentler Han was.

She kissed the child’s hair and said, "Let me take you to eat."

The cooks in the castle had already prepared the food, keeping it warm over low heat. Seeing the mother and child come in, they served the steaming exquisite dishes in an orderly manner.

Su Xingyu said to the head cook, "In the future, if I’m late, let Han eat by himself first."

The cook nodded and hesitated a bit, then said, "I actually advised young master today, but he didn’t want to."

Han was trying hard to fork a piece of meat with his small fork and chimed in softly when he heard the cook, "Yeah, I want to wait for Mom to eat together."

Su Xingyu felt both heartsick and amused, "Kids who don’t eat on time won’t grow tall."

Han blinked, seeming a bit troubled.

Su Xingyu continued to coax him, "Do you see how tall Dad is? You need to be that tall to be the world’s best model, so Han, you have to work hard too."

"But I don’t want to be a model," the child said in a baby voice.

Su Xingyu was taken aback as she had never discussed this topic with him. She thought, given Han’s close relationship with Ouyang Yi, always following him around for photo shoots, he might want to be a model when he grows up. She asked Han, "Then what do you want to be?"

Han ate the meat in small bites, his little cheeks puffed as he thought, "Mom, what does that very fierce uncle do?"

"The very fierce uncle?" Su Xingyu was taken aback again, feeling a slight sting in her heart.

"Yeah," Han nodded and said, "The one we met at the amusement park that day, who tied me up. Oh, we also saw him at the hospital last time. He was very fierce and said he would dig out my heart. He’s also Jue’s dad."

"Yes, he’s very fierce. Han, you need to stay away from him and never let him catch you; he will dig out your heart." Su Xingyu really didn’t want to scare the child, but some things had to be prevented before they happened.

Han pouted, on the verge of tears, but quickly held them back. He persistently asked Su Xingyu, "What exactly does that fierce uncle do?"

Su Xingyu didn’t know how to answer him. She lowered her eyes and slowly said, "That uncle runs a very large company. He commands others to work. Many, many people listen to him. Han, you must never be caught by him, and no matter what he says, don’t believe him; he will hurt you."

"Why would he hurt me?" Han blinked innocently, "Is it because of Jue?"

"Hmm?" Su Xingyu was surprised again.

Han said maturely, "Mom, that uncle must be doing it for Jue. I saw him standing at Jue’s hospital bed for a long time that time in the hospital. He seemed about to cry."

Lu Shifeng could cry?

What nonsense!

Su Xingyu couldn’t believe it. She only told him, "He’s Jue’s dad. For Jue, he could hurt everyone, including you."

Saying this made her extremely sad. The little soft and cuddly guy in front of her was also Lu Shifeng’s son. But he treated Zhuang Heng’s son so well, and her son?

He wanted to use her son’s heart to save Zhuang Heng’s son.

Su Xingyu silently watched her son. Her Han was so good-looking, with exquisite features, so much like her. But certain details in his eyes and eyebrows betrayed Lu Shifeng’s features, though perhaps it was because he was chubby that he didn’t have Lu Shifeng’s sharp lines, looking rather adorably clumsy.

Is that why Lu Shifeng couldn’t recognize this as his own son?

Su Xingyu felt a mix of emotions, both unwilling and comforting herself. In this way, Han’s identity wouldn’t be exposed, and she could live peacefully with Han.

She lowered her head and bit into the fish fillet on her plate; it was supposed to be a delicious dish, yet it tasted like wax in her mouth.

Han was eating seriously, but suddenly looked up and asked, "Mom, you said that the very fierce uncle can make so many people listen to him? Can those people listen to him to find another heart for Jue? Jue is really pitiful. I want to grow up to be like that uncle, so I can save Jue."

This child...!

Su Xingyu almost choked on his words. What kind of nonsensical thoughts are these?

"Doctors can save people," she said, swallowing a sip of soup and suppressing the urge to throw out her little bear child for a spanking, "Don’t learn from that uncle; he’s the biggest villain in the universe!"

"Oh." Disappointment was written all over Han’s little face.

Thinking something wasn’t right, Su Xingyu asked, "Han, why do you want to save Jue so much?"

"Because Jue looks so uncomfortable..." The child frowned as if he was also uncomfortable, "Mom, actually Jue saved me in the hospital operating room that day. Even though he was in so much pain, he didn’t want them to dig my heart out and wouldn’t cooperate with the doctors, crying and running away... Mom, I’m sorry to Jue. If I obediently let them dig my heart, Jue would be fine now."

"Nonsense!" Su Xingyu dropped the knife and fork. The crisp sound startled both the child and the nearby maids.

Su Xingyu looked at him sternly, "Han, do you know what you’re saying? Your life is always the most important thing, and you must never think about letting someone dig your heart!"

"But..." Han wanted to say something, but seeing Mom’s unprecedentedly serious expression, he nodded aggrievedly, "I understand."

Su Xingyu reiterated her point with some more advice.

She couldn’t understand why Han had such strong feelings for little Jue, whom he had only met once. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Could it be that the child was so frightened by the traffickers that he clung to a peer when he finally saw one?

Su Xingyu thought it was time to find some friends of his age for Han.

When the mother and son finished eating, she took Han to the lounge.

Every day, this kid would watch some cartoons after dinner, but since they ate late today, the cartoon time had already passed. When she turned on the TV, the news was on.

A female host reported, "Today, Zhuang’s Cosmetics Company’s stock price suddenly plummeted, triggering panic selling..."
