Mu Srui was also stunned. She looked at her elder brother and Mu Lan, who had returned with Lu Wanqing, and couldn't believe her eyes. What was going on? Why was her elder brother picking up Mu Lan from school with Lu Wanqing? Didn't her brother promise her yesterday that he would investigate this matter?
And Mu Lan, didn't the little fellow promise her this morning that he would keep his distance from Lu Wanqing until the matter was investigated?
"Sri? Are you and your friend done with school?" Lu Wanqing smiled and greeted Mu Srui.
Mu Srui was a little scared. She held onto Lu Yuanyuan's sleeve and nervously hid behind Lu Yuanyuan. "I... just finished school?"
Lu Wanqing looked at Mu Srui, why did she feel like this young girl was... trembling? Was she afraid of her?
"Alright, let's go in." Mu Sijie naturally knew what Mu Srui was thinking, but he didn't want to bother with it anymore. He turned to Lu Wanqing and said.
Since the doctor had examined Lu Wanqing's genes and confirmed that she was fine, then there was no problem.
Lu Wanqing quickly regained her senses. She smiled and nodded, "Mm."
Mu Srui and Lu Yuanyuan were actually irrelevant to her. She had already greeted them politely. All she needed to do was take good care of the child.
"Are we studying today?" Lu Wanqing asked as they entered the living room.
Little Mu Lan nodded, "Mm, yes!"
How pathetic. He attended kindergarten during the day and still had to attend classes at home. However, thinking about the videos of mecha production that Mu Sijie had personally recorded on the star net yesterday, Lu Wanqing was also a little impatient.
Although studying non-stop was hard, learning in the interstellar era was truly interesting. It was quite different from the boring studies in the twenty-first century. She still wanted to watch.
Mu Sijie followed behind and noticed Lu Wanqing's interest in the mecha production course. He glanced at her again.
Little Mu Lan looked at his mother with expectant eyes and nodded, "Mm."
Lu Wanqing instantly became excited and said eagerly, "Then let's go now!"
She couldn't wait, she wanted to see it immediately!
Mu Sijie's mouth twitched slightly. He couldn't help but remind her, "Let Mu Lan rest for a while first. He just got home."
Lu Wanqing's brain jolted upon hearing this, and then she immediately sobered up. She quickly nodded, "Right!"
Lu Wanqing raised her hand and rubbed the little fellow's head, smiling, "Sorry, baby. Mommy was too eager just now. Studying non-stop might be a bit too tiring for you."
Little Mu Lan looked up at Lu Wanqing, his head tilted, and nodded, "Mm."
So well-behaved. Lu Wanqing couldn't help but think as she looked at the little fellow.
Lu Wanqing looked at the schoolbag the little fellow was carrying. She reached out to help him take it off and then said to him, "Go sit on the sofa and rest for a while. Mommy will take your schoolbag upstairs for you."
"You don't need to spoil him too much," Mu Sijie couldn't help but say.
Lu Wanqing paused, then thought that it made sense. She nodded slightly and agreed, "Okay."
Mu Sijie looked at Mu Lan and said sternly, "Mu Lan, take your schoolbag upstairs yourself."
Mu Lan was still a little afraid when his father was stern. He quickly took his small schoolbag from his mother's hands and ran upstairs with pattering footsteps.
After Mu Lan left, Mu Sijie quickly turned to look at Lu Wanqing and gave her a gentle smile, "Don't mind me. When educating children, one must be stern when necessary."
"You're right," Lu Wanqing immediately admitted her mistake. She had been getting along too well with the child these past few days, and she couldn't help but want to help the little fellow with everything. However, she overlooked that if she did everything for him, she might spoil him.
"Do you want to sit down and rest for a while?" Mu Sijie quickly invited again.
Lu Wanqing quickly nodded, "Okay, okay."
She walked to the sofa and sat down.
Mu Sijie also came over and sat next to her.
Butler Mu quickly went to make tea and asked a maid to bring out fruits and pastries and arrange them on the coffee table.
"About Mu Lan's care, can I... talk to you about it specifically?" Mu Sijie said after a long silence.
Lu Wanqing looked at Mu Sijie and nodded, "Mm."
Seeing that she had no intention of resisting, Mu Sijie smiled and said, "If both of us accompany him, there might be time conflicts. Like today, we should have only sent one person to pick him up from kindergarten."
Lu Wanqing nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, "Yes, yes, yes. This matter should indeed be arranged."
Lu Wanqing thought about how she had forgotten to inform Mu Sijie a few days ago and had picked up little Mu Lan herself. When Mu Sijie arrived, Mu Lan was no longer at the kindergarten, which was indeed a bit awkward.
"There are other issues, such as Mu Lan's living habits and study schedule. You might not have understood them before, and we may need to discuss them," Mu Sijie said.
Lu Wanqing also thought it made sense and quickly nodded, "Right."
Mu Sijie smiled.
Lu Yuanyuan entered the living room with Mu Srui. Looking at the way Mu Sijie and Lu Wanqing interacted, her feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, reluctant to move.
Mu Srui waited for a while and noticed that Yuanyuan's gaze was always fixed on her elder brother and Lu Wanqing. Her expression was a little... ferocious?
To be honest, although her elder brother was gentle and refined on the surface, Mu Srui was still quite afraid of him, because when her elder brother truly got angry, he was very fierce.
"Yuanyuan, let's go upstairs." Mu Srui was a little afraid that Lu Yuanyuan would continue to stare at her elder brother and Lu Wanqing like this. What if her elder brother noticed and got angry at them?
As Mu Srui spoke, she pulled Lu Yuanyuan and insisted on dragging her upstairs.
Although Lu Yuanyuan was very unwilling, this was the Mu family after all. She had begged Mu Srui for a long time to agree to take her home. She was also afraid that if she lingered, Sri would be unhappy, and then she wouldn't bring her back in the future.
"Yuanyuan, don't stare at my elder brother and Lu Wanqing like that in the future. If my elder brother sees it, he will definitely be unhappy!" Mu Srui pulled Lu Yuanyuan to her room and couldn't help but lower her voice and remind her.
She was really scared downstairs just now. If she hadn't known that Yuanyuan liked her elder brother, she would have thought Yuanyuan had a feud with her elder brother and Lu Wanqing.
Lu Yuanyuan didn't hear a word of what Mu Srui said. She looked up at Mu Srui and couldn't help but question, "Sri, didn't you say you've already told your elder brother and Mu Lan about the zombie thing?"
"You wouldn't lie to me, would you?"
Lu Yuanyuan's tone became more and more anxious. In the end, she even couldn't help but grab Mu Srui's hand and eagerly asked, "You haven't told Brother Sijie about that yet, have you?"
Mu Srui was also stunned. Her mind went blank for a moment, and then she quickly denied it, "Yuanyuan, how could you think of me like that? Of course, I told my elder brother about the zombie thing. I not only told my elder brother, but I also told Mu Lan, as well as my parents and grandparents. Now my whole family knows!"
