Chapter 499: Overwhelmed
Lu Jinyan reached out and ruffled his hair: "You still want to make demands? Alright, let’s hear it. I’m curious to know what kind of demands a little rascal like you can come up with."Song Dabai suddenly showed a shy expression on his face and said, "I want to take Luolu along."
"Who is Luolu?" Lu Jinyan asked with a frown.
Song Dabai immediately lifted his small face and explained, "She’s my friend. She’s at the orphanage, and she’s super cute."
He particularly emphasized the word ’cute’, as if boasting about having such a cute friend.
Lu Jinyan saw this and couldn’t help but laugh.
He raised his hand and lightly flicked Song Dabai’s small, straight nose: "Wow, you’re so small and you’ve already got a little girlfriend."
Song Dabai’s face turned hot: "I just like Luolu, Jinyan brother, will you agree or not?"
"Okay, I agree."
"Jinyan brother, you’re awesome!"
Song Dabai made a move to hug Lu Jinyan’s arm, but Lu Jinyan raised his hand to stop his small head, "Don’t be in a rush to thank me yet. Go call and arrange a time, so we don’t end up going for nothing."
"Oh."
Song Dabai nodded and quickly scampered off to call Luolu.
A short while later, he excitedly ran back and said, "Luolu has agreed, and we’re picking her up at nine o’clock tomorrow morning!"
"Alright, it’s settled then."
Wen Duoduo looked in surprise at the pair—one big, one small—and wondered how they had come to an agreement without her consent.
Seeing their son taking the initiative to bring up fetching Luolu, Song Yinyin and Lu Jihan couldn’t help but chuckle.
In fact, the little one had suggested more than once that they go to the orphanage to get Luolu to come out and play.
But since both parents had been too busy lately, they hadn’t been able to fulfill his wish. Now that Lu Jinyan was willing to take him and fulfill their son’s wish, they were quite grateful to him.
Song Yinyin smiled at Lu Jinyan and said, "Jinyan, thank you. Tomorrow we’ll leave Dabai and Luolu in your care. Taking two kids with you and Duoduo might be a bit much."
"Indeed."
Lu Jinyan raised an eyebrow with a slight smirk, "Auntie and Uncle, you owe me quite a favor, how do you plan to repay it?"
Lu Jinyan had been pampered since childhood, lacking nothing, so Song Yinyin really couldn’t think of how to repay this favor.
She said, "If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask."
"Well, about that..." Lu Jinyan squinted his phoenix eyes, a mischievous grin flickering in his gaze.
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught Lu Jihan shooting him a cold glare, making him shiver involuntarily.
He laughed awkwardly and said, "No rush, no rush, let’s put it on hold. I can bring it up later when I think of something."
"That’s fine." Song Yinyin nodded, not noticing the cold glance Lu Jihan threw at Lu Jinyan.
Meanwhile, Yan Xue, sitting alone on a single sofa, was carefully observing Wen Duoduo, having noted the fleeting awkwardness on both her and Lu Jinyan’s faces upon meeting.
She asked with a smile, "Miss Wen, how old are you this year?"
The sudden naming caught everyone by surprise.
Especially Lu Jinyan, who, upon hearing Yan Xue suddenly call out to Wen Duoduo, immediately interjected, "Mom, why are you asking her that?"
"Oh, just curious."
With that, Yan Xue continued to smile at Wen Duoduo, asking, "Miss Wen, are you from Imperial City? How old are you this year? When were you hired as Jinyan’s assistant?"
Yan Xue asked so many questions in one breath that Wen Duoduo found herself overwhelmed and at a loss.
