Chapter 07

I had just started braising the sweet and sour chicken in the pot.

When I saw Dingbao standing to the side, big tears falling *plop plop*.

“Mommy, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have asked to eat sweet and sour chicken nuggets.”

“Otherwise, so many people wouldn’t be scolding you.”

His big eyes were teary, his small face full of guilt.

My heart felt exceptionally terrible.

I held him tightly in my arms.

“Baby, you didn’t do anything wrong. You worked hard to win that chicken yourself, why should we give it to him?”

“Mommy wants to tell you a truth today: this world is very complicated. As long as we have a clear conscience about what we do, don’t worry about those rumors and wild talk from the outside.”

“Distance tests a horse’s stamina, and time reveals a person’s heart. Who is good and who is bad, everyone will naturally know eventually.”

After I comforted Dingbao for a while, he finally stabilized.

I was getting ready to go across the way to grab some more firewood.

Passing by the large screen, I saw it had exploded again.

“Tsk tsk, doesn’t the tone of this kid sound just like those green-tea articles on Zhihu?”

“What’s so surprising? A green tea mom will definitely birth a green tea son!”

“It’s called dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and mice’s sons know how to dig holes.”

“The comment above speaks the truth…”

“Both mother and son are green tea bitches, what a perfect match…”

“This little brat is so f*cking disgusting…”

Before I could react.

My phone rang.

A cold voice came through.

“Lu Wei, is this how you take care of my son?”

“I…”

“Enough, don’t say it. I know the ins and outs of the situation from Xiao Zhang.”

Xiao Zhang was my assistant.

“It’s your overflowing holy mother complex letting you be used.”

“You’re a grown adult, not only can you not take care of yourself, but you even dragged our son into it.”

“If she acts like a bitch again, just rip her apart.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got your back on everything.”

“Also, you need to eat more these next few days.”

“I expect you to return a plump and pale wife to me in a few days.”

He hung up directly after saying that.

Even though his words were as cold and ruthless as always.

My heart felt unusually warm and grounded.
