Chapter 99 - Change the Way You Address Her

Lu Gan said softly, “Little Suo, your Auntie Song and I are married. Do you know what that means? It’s like your parents’ relationship.”

Lu Suo nodded.

“I know.”

“You should start calling her mom.”

Lu Gan picked up Lu Suo and asked gently, “Can you do that?”

To Lu Gan’s surprise, Lu Suo nodded without hesitation.

“Sure.”

Lu Gan looked at his nephew and smiled.

“I thought you’ll be unwilling.”

Lu Suo smiled.

“Why wouldn’t I? She’s your wife and you’re my father. That makes her my mother, right? Will you have your own child in the future?”

Upon hearing that, Lu Gan was stunned. Neither he nor Song Ci had thought about that. After all, there was no shortage of children in this family. Every child was related to them by blood. He had always treated Lu Suo as his own child, but what about Song Ci? Although she clearly loved Song Yujin, she might not have the same thoughts as him.

“I haven’t thought about that question. I’ll give you an answer time. Tell me, do you like Auntie Song?”

Lu Gan asked.

Lu Suo nodded.

“She likes you, so I like her.”

“You think that she likes me?”

“Don’t you think so?”

Lu Gan thought for a moment.

“I think so too.”

Lu Suo laughed.

“Then I like her even more!”

Lu Gan pinched his little nose. Then, he continued, “Little Suo, no matter what happens, you have to remember that we are your adoptive parents. At the same time, don’t forget about your biological parents. They loved you very much. You’re just a little more special than other children as you have four parents who all adore you.”

Lu Suo wrapped his arms around Lu Gan’s neck.

“I know.”

Lu Gan kissed Lu Suo’s forehead.

“Good boy.”

Once the two of them had finished talking, Lu Gan returned to his bedroom. On the way, he passed by Song Yujin’s room. After thinking for a moment, he knocked on the door and said to Song Ci, “I’m going back.”

Song Ci was pinching Song Yujin’s little face. The latter clearly disliked it. She replied, “Then I’m going back too.”

The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw Lu Suo. He called out in a crisp voice, “Mommy.”

Song Ci was surprised. Even Song Yujin looked over.

Lu Suo smiled very cutely.

“Auntie Song, I’ll call you mommy from now on, okay?”

“O… Okay,”

Song Ci stuttered. She was still shocked even though she had already taken the role of Lu Suo’s mother.

After composing herself, she asked Lu Gan, “Is this what you guys have been talking about?”

Lu Gan nodded.

“I’m sorry. We’ve been married for a few days, but I’ve neglected such an important matter. I hope I didn’t upset you.”

Song Ci’s heart felt as if it was being brushed by something gentle.

“You don’t have to feel bad. I don’t mind.”

Lu Gan patted Lu Suo and said, “Go and play with your little uncle.”

As soon as the two children closed the door, Lu Gan suddenly kissed Song Ci’s face. She was appalled.

“The kids are still nearby.”

“Isn’t the door closed?”

Lu Gan was very calm. After saying that, he held Song Ci’s hand and gently kissed it. Then, the two of them returned to their bedroom.

Meanwhile, Song Yujin was covering Lu Suo’s ears. He only let go of his hands after the sound of Lu Gan’s wheelchair was far away.

Lu Suo said angrily, “Why are you the only one allowed to eavesdrop?!”

“I didn’t. I’ve never liked eavesdropping,”

Song Yujin replied calmly.

“Were they whispering outside?”

“Yes.”

Lu Suo pouted.

“Why won’t you let me listen?”

He missed the chance even though they were so close.

Song Yujin looked at the chubby little boy who was pouting. He could not help but pinch his cheeks. However, he was worried that Lu Suo would get angry again, so he quickly comforted him by patting his head.

“Good boy!”

Lu Suo snorted.

Song Ci was so happy during dinner that she could not stop smiling. She put a few pieces of meat on Lu Suo’s plate before shifting her attention to Song Yujin.

Suddenly, she realized something.

Lu Suo had started to call her mother. Now, they were like a family of three. On the other hand, Song Yujin was her younger brother and Lu Gan’s brother-in-law. Would he feel excluded?
