Chapter 712 - Mother’s Smell (1/2)
Ling Sheng secretly despised her Fifth Uncle in her heart. She was angry. Not only had he snatched her food, but she had deliberately saved the mutton balls for last. If she had known that he would come, she would have started with them.
Besides, she had gone from calling her Sister Yu to calling her Aunt Yu. Their seniority was one generation away.
Lu Yubai had initially come to see her and apologize on behalf of Huo Ci. Since Ling Sheng was here, he could not talk things out. After snatching the barbeque and eating it, he walked away. When he reached the door, he pointed at Ling Sheng and reminded her, “Watch your Aunt Yu carefully. I’ll take care of your… granduncle.”
After saying that, he felt a lingering fear and nearly fainted. I almost said your ‘father’.
Thankfully, he’d reacted quickly and changed his mind.
Nangong Lengyu could clearly sense that he was referring to another form of address but had changed it at the last minute. She frowned with a puzzled look, feeling odd.
“Thank you, Fifth Uncle.” Ling Sheng ran over to put the trash bag in his hand and smiled at him. “Help me throw it away.”
Otherwise, there would be no way to sleep in a room full of smells.
Lu Yubai left.
Ling Sheng wanted to open a folding bed so that she could sleep.
“Sheng Sheng, sleep with me!” Nangong Lengyu stopped her and smiled. “The bed is quite big. Since the two of us are so skinny, we can sleep together.”
Ling Sheng blinked her big eyes, her heart jumping with joy. She asked carefully, “Can I really?”
Nangong Lengyu looked at the usually cheerful girl. When she asked her this question, she seemed a little uncertain. She nodded. “Yes.”
Ling Sheng did not get the folding bed. She took off her coat directly and did not change. She was only wearing a pair of giraffe pajamas.
