If his fans saw this scene, they would probably go crazy.
Lu Ning looked at Lu Bai’s silver hair and could not help but take a few more glances.
Lu Bai t s lips curled in a smile as he looked at her. He could not help but start to act improperly. “Why? Find your elder brother especially handsome?”
Lu Ning pondered for a moment and asked, “Brother, do you think I’ll look good if I dye my hair that color?”
After all, they had somewhat similar faces. She should look good if she had her hair dyed the same color as his.
Hearing this, Lu Bai t s expression turned serious. Before Shen Yunci and Lu
Zhi could say anything, he said, “No, you can’t dye your hair.”
Lu Ning was stunned for a moment. This was the first time she had seen Lu Bai with a straight face.
Lu Ning was a little annoyed when she heard this. She looked at Lu Bai.
“You’ve already dyed yours, so why can’t I?”
Lu Bai did not expect her to talk back to him.
He sighed and looked at her. “Hoh, so you’ve learned how to talk back to your brother.’
Lu Ning looked at him angrily. “You’re clearly the one who’s being too much.”
Lu Bai stopped talking and stared at her. Lu Ning glared back at him, unwilling to be outdone.
This was the first time the siblings were at loggerheads with each other.
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi hurriedly said, “Alright, alright. What’s going on? Don’t get angry in the morning.”
The two of them glanced at each other, turned their heads, and stopped talking.
The two of them did not speak until it was time to leave. Lu Zhi brought Lu Ning out; after closing the door, Shen Yunci looked at Lu Bai.
“What’s wrong with you? Your sister was just asking, she didn’t say that she wanted to dye her hair. Why did you get so angry?”
Lu Bai placed his arm on the back of the chair. “l just don’t want her to dye it.”
Shen Yunci looked at him in amus.e.m.e.nt. “But you could’ve talked to her nicely there. Why were you so fierce?”
Lu Bai said meaningfully, “You and Daddy dote on her too much. That won’t do. Do you want her to come back crying after she gets scolded by others outside?”
Shen Yunci did not understand the deeper meaning in his words. She just subconsciously defended her daughter and retorted, “If that will be so, then so be it. Your father and I feel sorry for her. It’s better for her to have a place to
come back and cry after she’s been wronged.”
“What about when she starts working? Are you going to let her come home and cry whenever as well? Then she might as well not work.”
Shen Yunci said directly, “It’s fine if she doesn’t want to work. Your father and I will take care of her when she comes back. It’s not like we can’t afford to take care of her.’
Lu Bai lowered his arm and tapped his fingers on the table. “Can you afford a mountain of gold and silver if she wants it?” “Why can’t we afford it?!”
Shen Yunci blurted out subconsciously.
After saying that, she was also stunned.
She looked at Lu Bai in bewilderment.
She defended herself weakly. “Your sister isn’t someone who would want those things.”
Lu Bai picked up a bun and stuffed it into his mouth. “Is that so? Aren’t you afraid that you’ll pamper her too much? An’an wanted a mountain of gold and silver back then, and you gave her that. Then again, Mom, An’an had wanted everything back then, so how did you and Daddy manage to satisfy her cravings, what with our familys situation?”
Shen Yunci stopped putting away the crockery and looked at her second son.
Lu Bai looked quite relaxed. It seemed like a casual question.
However, Shen Yunci knew that this son of hers was like this. He could anger her to death with his behavior if he so willed.
Shen Yunci simply tossed the bowl in her hand on the table and stared at him. “Tell me, do you already know something and want to ask about it? Don’t beat around the bush, let’s talk.”
Lu Bai pouted. “l don’t have anything to ask. You’re thinking too much.”
This simply earned him a hard slap to the back of his head.
Lu Bai:
