Chapter 183: Two Choices

What kind of strange logic is this?

If you don't dislike each other, you have to be together?

Lu Xiwán was again frightened by her own bratty kid.

"Daddy, are you willing to be with Mommy?" Yao Yao asked Fu Sijue seriously.

Seeing them about to decide the matter on their own, Lu Xiwán hurriedly interrupted Lu Xixi.

"Xi Xi, hurry up and eat, and stop talking nonsense."

Lu Xiwán only felt a warm sensation on her face, mechanically shoveling rice into her mouth.

If she finishes early, she won't have to face this awkward situation; that was the only thought in Lu Xiwán's mind.

Fu Sijue noticed Lu Xiwán's small gesture, felt a sour pang inside, but said nothing.

"Thank you for President Fu's hospitality; Xi Xi, say goodbye to brother Yao Yao and Uncle Fu. We're heading home now."

Lu Xiwán kissed Yao Yao's soft little face, gave Xi Xi a little tug while watching Xi Xi's lingering attachment to Yao Yao.

"I want to go to Uncle Fu's house today…" Xi Xi whispered.

Lu Xiwán bluntly rejected Xi Xi, "You can see brother Yao Yao again tomorrow morning at kindergarten."

After saying goodbye to Fu Sijue, Lu Xiwán stared at Xi Xi with a solemn expression.

"Don't say things like that anymore."

Xi Xi twisted her hands, then looked up expectantly at Lu Xiwán, "So will Mommy be with Uncle Fu?"

The trailing tone rose slightly from over‑eagerness, her eyes sparkling; Lu Xiwán felt a pang of reluctance seeing that look.

"Xi Xi wants Daddy?"

Xi Xi froze for a moment at the question, then nodded and shook her head.

"Does Daddy mean the person we live together with?"

Xi Xi suddenly hesitated; she had never pondered that question before.

"Not only will he live with us, he'll also become your family in the future," Lu Xiwán crouched, staring earnestly at Xi Xi.

"Do you want to live with Uncle Fu?"

Xi Xi fell silent, not speaking for a long while.

Lu Xiwán thought she would give up the idea, but Xi Xi actually started to consider it.

"I want to live with brother Yao Yao; brother Yao Yao must be with Uncle Fu… Mom, I get it! I want Uncle Fu to be my Daddy; Uncle Fu is also good to you."

Xi Xi's logic bizarrely looped back to the start, successfully bewildering Lu Xiwán.

Lu Xiwán looked at the naive Xi Xi with a complicated gaze.

A child's world is still too naive.

"Then which do you think is better, Uncle Zhong Yun, Uncle Luo Zhou, or Uncle Fu?"

When it came to a multiple‑choice question, Xi Xi still hesitated and couldn't pick for a long time.

"We'll discuss this later, but Mom can assure you that you can always stay friends with brother Yao Yao."

Lu Xiwán solemnly promised Xi Xi.

Xi Xi hesitated briefly, then extended her pinky to hook fingers with Lu Xiwán.

Yan Han made several inquiries and passed the news of Lu Xiwán's job at Haicheng Technology to Yun Ruojin.

Yun Ruojin immediately sought out Sang Hongfang.

She smiled, placed a bank card on the table, and lightly tapped the surface.

"When it comes to business, President Sang is also a smart person; he should know what he should and shouldn't do."

Yun Ruojin's words were full of threat, and Sang Hongfang instantly sensed she meant trouble.
