"An Ru, I can handle my affairs." Sheng Ming cut off the fancy foreshadowing.
"What's yours and mine!" Lu Anru said with a small mouth and stubbornly insisted: "Xiao Ming's business is my business."
The delicate stubbornness is like a little white flower in the strong wind, seemingly resigned to fate, and the proud persistence may be destroyed at any time, only to sway out the final beauty.
However, I have long left my own color and breath, which unknowingly softened the sharpness of the wind, just like at home when I was a child.
A father's love for his mother is engraved in the bone marrow. It is like a supreme treasure, and the mother will not be aggrieved at all, not even his own son.
What Sheng Ming disliked the most since she was a child was her parents' intimate 'shows of affection', regardless of occasion and time. Whenever his father wanted to rope him in to show off the family atmosphere, he would refuse without mercy.
After he disappointed him in public a few times, his father's attitude towards him became harsh and he said: "Since you want to lose your personality and reject basic interactions between relatives, then stick to it and don't feel indifferent and uncomfortable and come crying again." ā
My father's education method advocates that boys should learn to be independent sooner or later. Don't let him be spoiled. If he is spoiled at home and cannot be touched, he will only fall harder when he comes out of the ivory tower.
Sheng Ming couldn't understand it as a child. He only felt that his father's attitude towards his mother and Lu Anru was completely opposite to his, and his words were even more hurtful.
Gradually, he took the gamble and became indifferent and strong where his father thought he would be weak.
His mother tried to persuade him gently and patiently several times, saying that his father was hard-spoken but soft-hearted, but actually cared about him.
He had tried to believe it, but every time he made a small mistake, the contrast between his father's strictness and his tolerance for Lu Anru was too great.
Over time, he changed from hiding his emotional fluctuations to not caring from the bottom of his heart, and his alienation changed from deliberate to natural.
Adults have many things to worry about, among which face and respect occupy a major position.
The elders have encountered many obstacles on his side and are no longer asking for trouble. You Qi had just finished making him indifferent, and when he saw Lu Anru, who knew how to please and behave, everyone's faces were full of love.
Lu Anru has been the only one in the family for a long time, but she is different from those girls who grew up arrogant. Every time her elders praised her, she would mention Sheng Ming and say that she could complete many things only with Sheng Ming's help and would not allow others to say anything bad about Sheng Ming.
When he was seven years old, his family went to the Xia Palace to attend a banquet. After dinner, the adults talked about business, and Zhuozi, the chief eunuch, took the children to play in the garden.
Ning Guang suggested going for outdoor adventure. The Adventure Park of the Xia Kingdom Palace was specially built for Ning Guang. Its facilities lead the world's leading technology and employs a well-known holographic reality constructor who once served Yuexiang.
After hearing Ning Guang's introduction, Lu Anru's eyes flashed with the light of attraction.
When I learned that I could even recreate the animation scenes I watched recently and explore them, I couldn't help but excitedly agreed, "Okay, let's go play."
"Okay, I completed more than half of yesterday's training. Please wait for me for a moment. The training can be completed in half an hour at most, and let's start a new scene." Ning Guang took out special protective gear and glasses from his bag and handed them over.
Lu Anru took it and couldn't help itching in his heart, and suggested: "Xiao Ming and I will help you complete the training. There is strength in numbers. If you finish it early, we can go play early."
"No, if you train to strengthen your own strength, you can't cheat." Ning Guang flatly refused: "You go to the Ningxin Palace to wait for me."
Lu Anru was startled to see the hint, exchanged glances with Ning Guang, and nodded in agreement: "Okay, we'll go over."
He grabbed Sheng Ming and ran away first, but the direction he ran was completely opposite to the agreed-upon Ningxin Palace.
Ning Guang glanced behind him at Xi Zhuozi who was secretly observing. Xi Zhuozi turned pale with fright and hurriedly took two steps back. He said in fear, "You deserve to die, my slave. I didn't see or hear anything."
Ning Guang said coldly: "This is best. You stay here. If the teacher comes to find me, help tell me to go to training."
"Okay, Your Highness." Xi Zhuozi bowed and agreed.
After the masters left, he turned around in a hurry and walked quickly towards the Zixin Palace where Emperor Xuantian handled government affairs.
Sheng Ming was not interested in helping Ning Guang complete his training homework, but he couldn't bear Lu Anru's pleading beside him. If he refuses, there will be a little crying bag around him when he comes home, complaining about his discomfort.
Following them into a specific light-sensing training room, the three of them divided their tasks. After reaching the set target by more than ten points, he was sent back to the control room.
Standing in front of the statistics screen, Lu Anru rubbed his little hands happily and asked expectantly: "Can we start the "Legend of the Immortal Couple" scene?"
"Yes." Ning Guang was also in a good mood. He clicked on the control panel to open the search interface and entered the name to confirm the download.
Lu Anru put on the corresponding glasses and protective gear as early as possible and stared at the progress bar intently.
Just when the download volume reached 99%, the screen went black, and the next second the page prompted the words "Cancel Download".
Lu Anru was annoyed and angry. He looked sideways at Ning Guang beside him and asked him with stern eyes: Why are you kidding
Ning Guang already had three more adults around him, Emperor Xuantian, Lu Anru and Sheng Ming's parents.
The matter of helping to complete the training was exposed. Emperor Xuantian was clearly smiling at Lu Anru and the others, but the smile had no warmth at all and contained many meanings that they could not understand at the time.
"Father."
Ning Guang saluted with a trembling voice, and midway through he heard a loud voice admitting his mistake.
"Your Majesty, don't blame His Highness Uzumaki. It was me who wanted to play games, and it was I who suggested His Highness finish training quickly and encouraged opportunistic ways."
Ning Guang raised his head slightly and looked at Lu Anru in astonishment.
Lu Anru has been clever and sinister since he was a child, and he never takes responsibility for things that he can blame. If you can't get rid of the blame, you will definitely have to recruit a few people to accompany you to suffer the consequences.
Within a few seconds, not only Ning Guang understood why Lu Anru was like this, Sheng Ming also understood from Ning Guang's reproachful look.
"Hahahahaha, children just love to play, what's wrong with that? Since Xiao Anru wants to play, let's play. Guang'er doesn't need to do any training today. He will have fun with the two little guests. Don't let anyone say that I am the king. Lost the hospitality.ā
Emperor Xuantian tolerated and expressed his understanding and asked Xi Zhuozi to download "The Legend of the Immortal Couple" again.
The scene that the three of them entered was the same as the cartoon that Lu Anru and Sheng Ming were familiar with, but different. The difficulty was increased by N times.
In this way, they let the monster inside torture them for most of the day.
After finally clearing the level, Lu Anru collapsed from exhaustion, lying on the ground and sighing sadly: "My parents will express their anger directly. Ning Guang, your father has a knife hidden in his smile. It's so scary."
"I know this time, don't meddle in your own business again." A cold reminder came from the other side of his body.
Lu Anru turned his head dejectedly and murmured aggrievedly: "No, of course I have to take care of Xiao Ming's affairs. If I don't stand up, Ning Guang will definitely blame you for the mistake. You are annoying your elders and you must be too lazy to explain. ā
"It's nosy to mind my own business." Sheng Ming avoided the fiery seriousness in her deer-like eyes with disgust.
"It doesn't count! It doesn't count! Xiao Ming is my favorite brother, and Xiao Ming's affairs are my affairs."
