Lu Chenyue hadn't expected things to turn out this way, but he wouldn't just listen to Tang Wanning's side of the story; he would investigate whether it was true or false.

"Wanning, you don't mind me calling you that, do you? We're not trying to compete with you for Le Bao's affections. We just want Le Bao to grow up in a complete family. You can live with Le Bao at the Lu family home, so when you go out to work, I can help take care of the child."

Lu Jianguo actually wanted Tang Wanning to marry Lu Chenyue directly. But judging from the situation, the other party didn't even like his son.

Lu Jianguo cursed Lu Chenyue in his heart, calling him a useless piece of trash who couldn't even keep his own wife and children.

"No need, sir. I'll take Le Bao back tomorrow when she wakes up. I came here today to make things clear to you."

Tang Wanning didn't want to get involved with their family. The Lu family was a top-tier family among the wealthy. She knew her own limitations and wouldn't be so ignorant as to think that she could gain status through her son.

She has no plans to get married in this lifetime. Her greatest wish is to watch Le Bao grow up safely.

"I'll stay here."

Lu Chenyue suddenly spoke, his tone domineering and irrefutable.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jianguo glared at Lu Chenyue.

Although he also wanted to see his granddaughter every day, this wasn't the way to keep her around.

"What happened today could happen again in the future. Le Bao is still so young, and her heart is very fragile. I don't want her to grow up in a dysfunctional home."

With the Lu family's strength, they can guarantee her a safe and healthy environment to grow up in. Besides, my father is getting old and his health isn't very good. He's always dreamed of having a granddaughter, and now that we finally have one, I'm worried that we won't be able to spend every day together, as his health might not be able to handle it.

Le Bao needs playmates too. I have two nephews who are going home tomorrow; they can take care of Le Bao.

Lu Chenyue analyzed the pros and cons with Tang Wanning, and even took advantage of his father.

Upon hearing that he was unwell, Lu Jianguo immediately feigned weakness. To keep his beloved granddaughter, he would readily feign paralysis, let alone illness.

After listening to Lu Chenyue's words, Tang Wanning also fell into deep thought.

She was fine with anything about herself, but when it came to Le Bao, she hesitated. She herself grew up in a dysfunctional family, and she knew all too well the hardships involved.

Now that Le Bao has the option to avoid these things, shouldn't she make concessions for Le Bao's sake?

"Okay, I will pay the rent and living expenses for my family every month."

Although she was Le Bao's mother, she was still an outsider to the Lu family, and she felt embarrassed to eat and stay there for free.

"Need not......"

"it is good"

Lu Jianguo wanted to say that there was no need to pay, but Lu Chenyue agreed to her suggestion.

Although today was their first official meeting, Lu Chenyue felt that she was a woman with a strong sense of self-respect.

After reaching an agreement, the group returned to their respective rooms.

Tang Wanning glanced at Le Bao; the little guy was fast asleep, his hands clenched into fists beside his head. Tang Wanning kissed the child's forehead, went into the bathroom, washed away the day's fatigue, and then fell into a deep sleep while holding the child.

---

When Le Bao woke up in the morning, she glanced at her mother who was still sleeping beside her, but didn't disturb her. She crawled back out of bed on her own. The doorknob was a bit high, and she couldn't reach it, so the little one dragged a huge bear to the floor and used it to open the door.

"what?"

This isn't her home.

The little guy wasn't afraid and went off to explore on his own.

A door opened, and Le Bao peeked inside. Seeing that no one was chasing her away, she boldly went in.

She looked around, touched things, and finally fixed her gaze on the person lying on the bed.

The bed was a bit high, and the little one tried to climb up several times but couldn't. So she turned around and left.

Lu Chenyue woke up when Le Bao opened the door. He was about to get up when he saw the head sticking in through the door, so he lay back down. He wanted to see what this little guy would do.

A short while later, Le Bao returned, dragging the big bear from earlier.

She dragged the bear to the bedside, stepped on it, and climbed onto the bed.

Le Bao, exhausted from climbing up, took a couple of deep breaths before turning around to look at the person lying down.

Oh, it's the uncle from the hospital yesterday.

As he watched, Le Bao's hands became restless.

She first touched the red mark she had made yesterday with her finger, then blew on it, leaving Lu Chenyue's face covered in saliva.

Lu Chenyue, who has always been a germaphobe, clenched his fists, barely suppressing the urge to throw the little guy down.

Immediately afterwards, Le Bao reached for the closed eyes. She first tried to tug at Lu Chenyue's eyelashes, almost making him open his eyes.

The little guy smelled of milk and sat on his chest, making it a little hard for him to breathe.

While playing, Le Bao pinched Lu Chenyue's nose, forcing Lu Chenyue to open his mouth to breathe.

"Wow!"

The little guy bit his nose, and Lu Chenyue immediately sat up in pain.

As soon as Lu Chenyue sat up, Le Bao leaned back.

"Help, help the baby."

The little guy was grabbing wildly with both hands, shouting for help.

Lu Chenyue took her small hand and helped her sit up.

Le Bao sat up and saw the person in front of her, her hand already outstretched. However, Lu Chenyue intercepted her outstretched hand halfway.

"Uncle, go to sleep; Grandpa, cry."

The little guy still remembers that this uncle was lying in bed yesterday, and his grandfather was wiping away tears.

"I'm awake."

"And also, I am your father."

Looking at the chubby baby in front of him, who was his daughter, Lu Chenyue felt a strange sensation rising in his heart.

"Call me Daddy"

I couldn't resist reaching out and pinching the little guy's soft cheek; it was so soft, I couldn't bear to let go.

"Suddenly, the nest opens, the Huai River is vast and fresh."

Let me go, you big bad guy.

Le Bao pushed against the big hand pinching his face with both hands, using all her strength.

"Huff, huff, huff"

Having finally managed to break free, Le Bao gasped for breath and glared angrily at the person in front of her.

"You bad boy, I'll tell Mom, and she'll beat you!"

The little guy stood up unsteadily, arms crossed over his chest. He looked at Lu Chenyue with what he thought was a fierce expression.

Lu Chenyue's wicked nature kicked in, and he pushed the baby, who had finally managed to stand up, down with just one finger.

Then stand up again, and push them down again.

......

Finally, poor Le Bao was too tired to get up from the bed. So, she rolled over, buried her face in the blanket, and stuck her bottom out.

I'm angry, come and comfort me!

"Oh"

The little guy is small, but he has quite a temper.

Stop teasing her. Lu Chenyue got up, went to the bathroom, quickly washed up, changed his clothes, and scooped up the chubby baby who was lying on the bed.

Le Bao resisted being suddenly picked up, her whole body struggling, her little feet kicking wildly in the air. Even Lu Chenyue, if not careful, almost couldn't hold her.

When I came downstairs, Lu Jianguo was already sitting at the dining table waiting for me.
