    Chapter 50: The One in Jing Circle's Master Lu's Arms Has Flipped (22)

    The kiss was just a moment, but it left a tiny seed in his heart.

    Lu Wuqing didn't go too far; within that two-minute kiss, countless thoughts raced through his mind, finally settling into a strong feeling deep inside.

    He held the person close, his tensed hand gently patting his back.

    "Sleep. I'll be here watching over you."

    Song Chuyi, slightly breathless from the kiss and already uncomfortable, actually closed his eyes.

    Though he wasn't asleep, he still felt a rare sense of peace as if he were sleeping.

    Unexpectedly, this antagonist turned out to be quite reliable.

    Song Chuyi thought, even praising Xiaotong.

    Xiaotong: "Does that mean the host's mission is almost complete?"

    Song Chuyi: ...

    He really couldn't be sure about that.

    Hopefully, the cat son can bring some familial warmth to Lu Wuqing!

    Song Chuyi stayed home for two days and finally jumped out of bed on the third day.

    He hadn't forgotten that today was Song Mu's return home, and he had to quickly take Lu Wuqing back to the Song residence!

    Song Chuyi hurriedly pulled Lu Wuqing down the stairs, muttering, "We need to go back quickly; Aunt Song is returning."

    Lu Wuqing was dragged to the car door, acting as if they were going to meet the parents.

    Wait a minute.

    They were indeed meeting the parents.

    He grabbed Song Chuyi's arm and whispered, "Are we going back to meet the parents?"

    "Of course!" Song Chuyi said straightforwardly, "To see Aunt Song."

    Lu Wuqing didn't correct Song Chuyi, knowing that this visit was different from what Song Chuyi thought. Although his A'Chu didn't realize it, he knew very well.

    Once they met the parents, it would be considered completing the formality in his mind.

    Then their relationship would be legitimate.

    Without needing Song Chuyi's urging, Lu Wuqing got into the car, started the engine, and drove off without any hesitation.

    When they arrived at the Song residence, Song Mu had just returned home. Seeing them together, she smiled, "It seems you two have been getting along well."

    Lu Wuqing, unusually, responded first to Song Mu, "Yes, pretty well."

    Song Mu looked at Lu Wuqing in surprise, clearly not expecting him to answer so readily.

    In truth, she didn't know how to interact with her biological son either.

    In fact, she and her husband had given all their love to Song Chuyi.

    But Song Chuyi had grown up differently, often making them feel he wasn't their child. It turned out he wasn't.

    Before Lu Wuqing came back, they had intended to treat him better, but human energy is limited.

    All their love went to Song Chuyi; there was none left for Lu Wuqing.

    Moreover, it was too late.

    They learned the truth too late. Lu Wuqing was already an adult, his personality formed, and he no longer needed them as parents.

    Given this, both Song Mu and Song's father didn't know how to face their biological son, resulting in a cold attitude towards him.

    Song Mu had even prepared herself for the possibility that her biological son wouldn't recognize her.

    Ignoring her was something she expected.

    So when Lu Wuqing responded, Song Mu was genuinely surprised.

    But she quickly recovered, smiling warmly, "It's good that you two get along."

    "Xiao Qing, send me your bank account number; I'll transfer some money to you."

    "You can go out and enjoy some good food together."

    Lu Wuqing's expression remained cold, "No need."

    "I'm just bringing him back to see you."

    "And for you to see him."

    Song Mu was taken aback, feeling something odd about these words.

    After a few seconds of contemplation, her expression became even more shocked.

    These words implied that Xiao Qing saw Xiao Chu as an outsider, and now he was bringing this outsider back to see her, his biological mother. Wasn't that... bringing a wife to meet the mother-in-law?

    Song Mu was stunned by her own interpretation. She couldn't help grabbing Lu Wuqing's arm and pulling him aside, whispering, "You and Xiao Chu..."

    She pursed her lips, her tone complex, "Have you fallen for him?"

    "Hmm." Lu Wuqing admitted, "This isn’t surprising, is it?"

    Song Mu opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words.

    "I’m not here to seek your approval," Lu Wuqing spoke again. "I just brought him back to see you."

    "No, I’m not against it," Song Mu quickly denied. "I just... do you... really understand Xiao Chu?"

    "Xiao Chu has a bad temper and spends money extravagantly."

    A glint flashed in Lu Wuqing’s eyes. "The one who doesn’t understand him is you."

    "He has a good personality, he earns his own money, and his spending is within reasonable limits."

    Song Mu looked doubtful. "He earns his own money?"

    "Yes, he created a small game that sells very well."

    Song Mu still didn’t believe it, even though Xiao Chu had indeed studied game development in university. But creating a successful game was no easy feat.

    Seeing she still didn’t believe him, Lu Wuqing gave up on explaining.

    An erudite university professor was ultimately too proud to accept what she hadn’t seen herself.

    "Even if he stopped earning money," his gaze shifted past Song Mu to Song Chuyi standing before the sofa, a smile playing on his lips, and a gentleness appeared in his features, "I can support him."

    Song Mu felt a momentary daze, seeing a reflection of her husband in Xiao Qing at that moment.

    After a brief silence, she finally relented.

    "I trust Xiao Chu, and I trust you."

    "You’re an adult now. Since you’ve made your decision, I, as a mother who hasn’t been there much, have no right to interfere."

    "But your father..."

    Lu Wuqing chuckled, a hint of sarcasm in his laughter.

    "What I want to do, no one can stop."

    His imposing presence surged forth, causing Song Mu’s pupils to constrict.

    She suddenly realized that her own son was far from the cold and gentle demeanor he projected.

    Beneath that calm, almost indifferent exterior lay a heart burning with intense passion.

    Song Mu dared not delve further, releasing her grip on Lu Wuqing’s arm and taking a half-step back.

    "I’ll talk to your father."

    "You don’t need to worry about us."

    "As long as you feel happy, everything is fine."

    After saying this, she glanced worriedly at Song Chuyi again.

    "That child... I mean Xiao Chu, does he know your feelings?"

    "We’ve kissed." Lu Wuqing dropped this statement and, without looking at Song Mu again, walked towards Song Chuyi with long strides.

    Song Mu stood there in shock, unable to recover for a long time.

    They... they actually kissed?
