Chapter 51

51 Worldly Wisdom

Leon obediently sat down beside Vivian. In fact, he had only been punched in the corner of his mouth and was bruised. Usually, even injuries that were more serious than this did not need to be treated. In any case, they would heal in a few days. However, he did not want to say a word about this now. He enjoyed the heartache and reluctance in Vivian’s eyes.

Vivian looked at the scars on her son’s face. As she carefully applied the medicine, she frowned and said, “That bunch of bastards! Looking at your injuries, I feel that even a major demerit is too good for them!”

Deep down, Vivian was a protective person. She had completely forgotten about the four teenagers who had been beaten up by Leon.

Vivian asked worriedly. “How about Mommy sign you up for a mixed martial arts class? Even though they won’t dare to do anything to you after this, I’m still worried they’ll do something behind your back!”

When Leon thought of the cowardice of the four people, he wasn’t worried. Even if such a situation really happened, he wasn’t afraid. However, it was good to be able to learn more things. In the future, he could protect his mother and siblings. So, he raised his face and smiled.” Sure, Mom.”

Looking at how handsome and obedient Leon was, Vivian’s heart melted. She couldn’t help but put her arms around her son’s shoulders and gently pinched his uninjured face. “Our family’s big baby is still so handsome even when he’s injured! Sigh, my genes are excellent!”

As he enjoyed his mother’s intimacy, the tips of Leon’s ears turned red.

Suddenly, there was a “growling” sound in the harmonious atmosphere, and Vivian just remembered that she had not had dinner.

Vivian smiled awkwardly at Leon. “I hasn’t eaten yet when I return before going to your school. Have you eaten, Son?” she asked.

When Leon heard this, he quickly got up. “I haven’t either. I’ll cook some noodles. It’s faster.”

Every time this happened, Vivian felt like her identity had been swapped with Leon.

She hurriedly stopped him. “You sit down and do your homework. I’ll do it.”

“By the way, you should eat some of the specialties I brought back from M City to fill your stomach.”

Vivian took out the pastries from the paper bag on the coffee table while smiling. She even took a muffin and handed it to Leon’s mouth. She looked at Leon expectantly. “Try it and see if you like it.”

When Leon heard his mother’s constant concern for him, he felt an inexplicable sense of joy.

He swallowed it and picked up one of the bags. “Mom, why did you buy so many? I’ve see they don’t have a long shelf life.”

Vivian also picked up a muffin and started eating. “I wanted to buy it for you to try, but since we’re already there, I might as well buy more. Tomorrow, I’ll take it to the factory and let them try the specialties of M City.”

When Leon heard this, his originally bright eyes immediately dimmed. His hands, which were slightly covered by the sleeves of his school uniform, subconsciously clenched into fists.

This was clearly bought for him, wasn’t it? Why would she think of someone else?

Vivian’s thoughts were simple. She thought that her three views were still correct. She tried to bring Leon to her daily work and life as much as possible. From these details, she could subtly change the dark side of Leon.

When Leon heard this, he felt a little better. In his opinion, the essence of his mother’s words was similar to an exchange of benefits. It was different from the kinship between him and his mother.

Most importantly, Vivian had mentioned that he should learn slowly by her side. This sentence made Leon secretly happy.

This meant that his mother still wanted him to stay by her side. He would compromise on anything if he could stay by his Mother’s side. Since his mother wanted him to learn these things, he would definitely study hard.
