“Stay where you are!” bellowed Nan Chen.
Zheng Lunlun got what he deserved. It’s wasn’t like Ning Ran had not told him to not come.
He had no choice but to obey.
“Third Uncle.”
“Blondie!” cheered Erbao.
“Seems like you have put on some weight.,” said Zheng Lunlun as pinched Erbao’s chubby cheeks.
“Hmph! You must have mistaken.”
“Since you are already here, why the rush?” asked Nan Chen coldly.
“I thought I had gone into the wrong room, but upon closer inspection, it’s you, Third Uncle,” said Zheng Lunlun as he let out a few awkward laughs.
“Have a seat.”
“It’s fine. My friends are waiting for me. Please enjoy, Third Uncle. I’ll take my leave now,” said Zheng Lunlun as he tried to give Nan Chen the slip.
“Stay.”
Once again, Zheng Lunlun was stopped in his tracks.
“Is there anything I can help you with, Third Uncle?
“What are you doing here?” asked Nan Chen.
“Third Uncle, didn’t I just tell you I was here with my friends? We were having dinner in this restaurant.”
“Then how did you know we were here? Don’t take me for a fool, there is no way you could have just waltzed into the wrong room,” scowled Nan Chen as he stared at Zheng Lunlun.
“I…”
Zheng Lunlun was contemplating whether to tell Nan Chen the truth; that Ning Ran was the one who let him in on this.
Truth be told, they were just friends and had no impure relationship. He only wanted to hang out with her over a cup of tea.
Zheng Lunlun didn’t know why he couldn’t confess the truth to Nan Chen.
“I was the one who told him,” admitted Ning Ran.
This isn’t something shameful, why did Blondie falter as he spoke?
Nan Chen was suspicious of him.
He then directed his question towards Zheng Lunlun, “Was it Ning Ran who told you about it?”
Since Ning Ran had already admitted to it, Zheng Lunlun could only follow the script. “Yes,” responded Zheng Lunlun.
“Then why didn’t you tell me that just now?” asked Nan Chen in an icy cold voice.
“I…I was scared,” stuttered Zheng Lunlun.
Nan Chen was hot on the pursuit. “What were you so afraid about?”
“I…I…” Zheng Lunlun felt even more panicked.
“Hey, you are scaring him! What happens if his stammering becomes worse?” said Ning Ran as she came to Zheng Lunlun’s rescue.
Nan Chen’s face turned gloomy, and he didn’t say a word after that.
Dabao and Erbao exchanged glances with one another. Even Dabao who was known for his high EQ couldn’t gauge what the situation was right now.
Why is Blondie so afraid of Daddy?
“Why don’t you two get to know more about one another?” said Nan Chen.
“Huh?” Ning Ran and Zheng Lunlun cried out at the same time. They couldn’t believe what they had just heard.
“Lunlun, this is Ning Ran. You may treat her as your aunt from now on,” said Nan Chen with a poker face.
The entire floor immediately fell silent.
“Blondie will be calling Mommy aunt! Does ‘aunt’ also have the same meaning as Mommy?”
Dabao rolled her eyes before clarifying to Erbao, “‘Aunt’ is not mommy. ‘Aunt’ refers to the wife of ‘uncle’.”
“Oh, then does that mean Mommy is the wife of Blondie’s uncle?” The topic had piqued Erbao’s curiosity.
Dabao remained silent, as he himself did not know the answer to it.
Based on logical reasoning, there is no doubt Mommy is Daddy’s wife.
But Mommy and Daddy don’t seem like they are married.
The way they behave isn’t something someone would expect from a husband and wife.
That was why he did not dare to answer.
“What are you waiting for? Greet your aunt,” said Nan Chen as he stared at Zheng Lunlun.
Zheng Lunlun resisted.
I won’t! Zheng Lunlun was resolved to not call her that.
