Chapter 53: Scheming Little Devil
Lu Gan had risked his life to protect Lu Suo and Song Ci was supposedly his true love. If the two of them fought, Lu Gan would probably have a headache, right? If Lu Gan sided with Lu Suo, Song Ci would definitely not be satisfied. On the other hand, if Lu Gan favored Song Ci, Lu Jingjing might even be able to adopt Lu Suo. That way, Lu Suo’s shares would be hers. Their part of the family’s shares would increase even further. This thought excited Lu Jingjing. She could not wait for Lu Suo and Song Ci to fight.
Suddenly, Lu Suo said in a low voice, “It stinks.”
Lu Jingjing was puzzled.
“What stinks?”
Lu Suo pointed at the elevator in front of him and frowned in disgust.
“A child just peed in the elevator. It’s so dirty.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingjing also frowned.
“This is such a big photography studio. It should have been cleaned already, right?”
Lu Suo shook his head.
Regardless, Lu Jingjing decided to check out the situation. Sure enough, there was a big pool of water in the elevator. Lu Suo stepped back. His eyes were full of disgust.
Lu Jingjing looked at her exquisite limited edition high heels. She did not move for a long time. There was another elevator downstairs. So, she decided to use that instead.
Shortly after, they reached the staircase. Lu Suo waved at her. “Goodbye, auntie.”
“Goodbye.”
Lu Jingjing said with a smile.
Lu Suo was not in a hurry to leave. It was as if he wanted to see her off.
As Lu Jingjing walked, she turned around and said, “You should go back quickly. Otherwise, they’ll think that you’re lost. Song Ci will definitely paint you as a mischievous child… Ah!”
Suddenly, Lu Jingjing lost her balance and rolled down the stairs. She felt an intense pain throughout her whole body. Her ankle also instantly swelled up like a steamed bun.
Lu Suo revealed a happy smile. He stared at Lu Jingjing, who was gasping in pain. Her cries brought him a ton of joy. How dare she slandered his uncle. Lu Gan was the best person in this world.
Nonetheless, Lu Suo restrained his smile and pretended to be concerned as he walked down the stairs. He said in a low voice, “Auntie, are you okay?”
Lu Jingjing held her swollen ankle. Her butt was also in great pain. Even her palm was scratched and blood was oozing out. After taking a closer look at the stairs, she found that it was abnormally smooth. There was transparent tape all over it!
“Who the f*ck put transparent tape on the stairs!”

Lu Jingjing roared. She was enraged.
Lu Suo’s expression did not change. His voice was full of concern when he said, “Auntie, are you hurt?”
Obviously, Lu Jingjing was injured. She stood up with difficulty. At the moment, she could die from anger. However, there was nothing she could do. There were no surveillance cameras in this area. Even if she wanted to investigate, it was not possible. Moreover, Lu Gan was still here. He would not allow her to cause trouble with the boss.
When Lu Jingjing thought about this, she felt wronged. She was badly injured, yet, she could not find the culprit. There was no way to vent her anger. Due to the pain, tears fell down her eyes.
Regardless, Lu Suo was still there. Lu Jingjing did not want to lose face in front of him. She quickly wiped her tears and said forcefully, “I’m fine.”
Lu Suo felt satisfied after seeing her tears.
“I’m leaving first.”
Lu Jingjing held onto the railing of the stairs and walked down shakily.
Lu Suo smiled at her and said innocently, “Goodbye, aunty.”
Once Lu Jingjing was out of sight, he squatted down and tore off the tape on the stairs. Then, he threw them into the rubbish bin. It would not be good if anyone else fell down.
Lu Suo went to wash his hands before returning to his seat.
Song Yujin was waiting for him. He even paused the video they were watching. Lu Suo had been gone for quite some time.
Despite that, he did not say anything when Lu Suo returned. He just handed him an earphone and the two of them resumed watching the video.
“Where’s daddy and Auntie Song?”
Lu Suo asked as he looked around.
“They’re still taking their photos.”
Song Yujin explained.
Lu Suo nodded and took out a piece of candy from his pocket. After that, he handed it to Song Yujin.
“Here, have some candy.”
Song Yujin took it and said politely, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Lu Suo smiled. His smile was sweeter than the candy.
No one knew what he had just done.
