Head lowered, Lu Zhanxiu looked at his son with disdain and asked, “Have you done your homework?”

“Why do I have to do homework?” Lu Xingguang frowned. He hated homework.

“Fine, you can be an ignorant little brat forever.”

“No, I don’t want to. I will go do my homework now!” Terrified of that prospect, Lu Xingguang dashed off.

There was no way he would be an ignorant little brat. He had plans to make Honey his wife!

Laughing quietly, Lu Zhanxiu walked over to Yan Susu and parked his chin on her shoulder, saying softly, “That smells good. What is it?”

The warm breath and smell that was distinctly Lu Zhanxiu made Yan Susu blush as she replied, “Congee…”

“I did not expect Mrs. Lu to be so virtuous.”

“You…you’re standing too close.” Yan Susu was not accustomed to this intimacy and close proximity.

Although they had gotten their marriage certificate and were legally married, he was nonetheless a stranger that she had only met a few times…

“Mrs. Lu doesn’t like it?”

“No.”

His handsome face downcast, Lu Zhanxiu stepped away suddenly, stood back with his arms folded, and remarked sullenly, “Mrs. Lu is taking on too much.”

Yan Susu didn’t know what to say.

The truth was that she had not done anything at all, so how could she be taking on too much?

But he was the high and mighty Young Mr. Lu and she was only a temporary wife…

“Sorry…” Lips pursed, Yan Susu dished up the congee and prepared to walk away.

Smoothly, Lu Zhanxiu took over the congee from her and strode elegantly into the dining room.

Yan Susu raised her head and looked on, a tad surprised, as he walked. Why did he…?

Noticing that Yan Susu had not moved from her spot, Lu Zhanxiu turned around and murmured, “Why are you standing there like an idiot?”

“Madam, please go ahead. I will bring the remaining dishes.” Auntie Tang, her heart exploding with joy, smiled cheerily at Yan Susu.

Wow! The master, who had never entered the kitchen before, had done so for the first time today, and it was all because of the mistress. He had even helped the mistress to carry food from the kitchen. What a loving couple!

Embarrassed by Auntie Tang’s smile, Yan Susu turned pink as, with her head hung low, she walked out of the kitchen and stood by the dining table, feeling a little awkward.

She had assumed that Lu Zhanxiu would be formal with her, as though she was a guest in his house. She had also been mentally prepared to be an invisible person in this household.

But in that case, what were those intimate moments from this morning and earlier all about?

“Does Mrs. Lu intend to eat standing up?” Lu Zhanxiu asked with a slight frown as he watched the obviously uncomfortable Yan Susu.

“Oh, okay.” Yan Susu took her seat primly, looking down, not daring to let her eyes stray.

“Is Mrs. Lu’s neck broken?”

“Huh?” Yan Susu’s head shot up in surprise. What was that supposed to mean?

“So it’s not broken.”

Yan Susu wasn’t sure how to respond. Why did she always find it so hard to understand what this man was saying?

Pursing her lips, she tried her best not to let her eyes stray south beyond Lu Zhanxiu’s neck and said, “I…I’ll go fetch Lu Xingguang down for dinner.”

With that, she rose and ran quickly upstairs.

When she entered the room, she noticed Lu Xingguang frowning over the books spread out in front of him, looking very stressed.

Unable to stop herself, she laughed softly, walked over to him, and asked gently, “What is it?’

“Those teachers are such pests, setting these tough problems to torture us kids.”

“Let’s eat first, and then I will help you.”

“Honey, you’re the best!” Lu Xingguang snuggled happily into Yan Susu’s arms.

So, it was true that Honey did love him after all. He resolved to grow up quickly, marry her, and banish that Iceberg Lu Zhanxiu to some faraway land!

Yan Susu caressed his head gently, her heart overflowing with affection for him.

“All right then. Let’s go eat.”

Hand in hand, they walked, talking and laughing, into the dining room. And Lu Xingguang did not forget to look tauntingly at his father.

Lu Zhanxiu watched mildly at the pair of tightly clasped hands and said nothing.

However, just as Yan Susu was about to walk past him, he reached out to grab her arm and, tugging hard, deftly pulled her right into his arms.

Yan Susu let out a squeak.
