504 A Qualified Father
Lu Suo had never lost his temper in front of Lu Gan. All he cared about was Lu Gan’s happiness.
Ever since Su Xing’s appearance, Lu Suo was in pain. Even then, he did not tell Lu Gan anything and tried to endure it.
Lu Gan sighed. His heart kept aching. Sometimes, he wished that Lu Suo was not so sensible.
“Sir, your meal is ready.”
Mary knocked on the study room’s door.
Lu Gan nodded and went downstairs to eat.
Lu Suo was already seated at the dining table. As usual, he babbled happily. It made the dining room very lively. As long as he was around, there would not be any awkward silences.
Lu Gan listened to Lu Suo attentively. From time to time, he replied and nodded.
After the meal, they went upstairs together.
Lu Suo was headed to Song Yujin’s room. As usual, they would do their homework together.
Suddenly, Lu Gan called out to Lu Suo.
“Let’s go to your bedroom. I have something to tell you.”
.After saying that, Lu Gan turned to Song Yujin and smiled.
“Yujin, I’ll send him back to you after I’m done talking.”
Song Yujin nodded. He entered the room and left them alone.
Lu Suo followed Lu Gan into his bedroom. He asked in a puzzled tone, “Daddy, what did you want to talk about?”
For a moment, Lu Gan was silent. He wanted to comfort Lu Suo but was unsure how to do it.
Lu Gan thought to himself for a long time. He carried Lu Suo and looked at him with a gentle expression.
Lu Suo became even more confused.
‘Why is he looking at me without saying anything?’
At last, Lu Gan asked, “You met Su Xing, right?”
Lu Suo was stunned for a moment.
.‘Did Song Ci tell him?’
Lu Suo pursed his lips, feeling a little unhappy. He did not blame Song Ci, but he really did not want Lu Gan to find out.
Lu Gan noticed Lu Suo’s small movements. He explained, “Your mother told me. She knew you didn’t want me to know, but she was afraid that we’d be in danger.”
“Danger?”
Lu Suo sounded concerned.
“Now that I know, we’ll be safe.”
Lu Gan patted Lu Suo’s head.
Lu Suo was relieved.
“I’m fine. Daddy, you don’t have to worry about me.”
Those words made Lu Gan’s heart ache even more. He gently caressed Lu Suo’s hair.
“I didn’t expect Lu Jie to do such a thing. It’s my fault for being careless. I’m sorry that you have to go through all this.”
Lu Suo shook his head.
“I don’t blame you. Everything is his fault.”
“Do you hate Su Xing? Are you uncomfortable? Were you reminded of your parents? Did you cry?”
Lu Suo was speechless. He did not expect Lu Gan to ask such questions. All he could do was lower his head.
‘How could I not hate him? It’s only natural to feel uncomfortable.’
Lu Gan hugged Lu Suo tightly.
“You won’t see him anymore. I promise. Such an incident will also never happen again.”
Lu Suo nodded obediently.
“I won’t let the preparators off. Everyone involved will pay.”
Lu Gan continued, “You don’t have to hide your feelings. Go ahead and be angry or sad. Throw a tantrum. It’s normal. Don’t worry about me, No matter what, I’m your family and guardian. I’ll always protect you. Besides, you’re still young. There’s no need to be so sensible. For now, just grow up healthily. Be honest with your emotions. Take this as a request from me. Otherwise, I won’t qualify as your father.”
