“My sister will help him. They’ll tell you if there’s something you need to know.”
Song Yujin recalled what had happened at the Lu family’s old mansion. Song Ci had actually protected Lu Gan.
Lu Suo did not know what to say. He was still a child, so he could only help his father by eavesdropping. However, Song Ci was an adult. She could do many things. Leaving things to her was definitely a better option. Even though Lu Suo acknowledged this fact, he was still unhappy.
“Why don’t you coax me more?”
Song Yujin felt that Lu Suo really liked to be coaxed. He said the same thing a few days ago. In the end, Song Yujin helplessly reached out and patted his head.
“Be good.”
Lu Suo raised his head and looked at Song Yujin.
“In the future, you can’t coax others like this. Only me!”

Song Yujin could not be bothered to argue, but he still said, “No.”
Lu Suo was instantly upset. He desperately wanted to be special.
“I still have to coax my sister. She’s the same as you.”
Song Yujin said calmly but in his heart, he sighed.
‘I guess it’s a good thing that I know how to coax people.’

Lu Suo did not expect Song Yujin to have such a gentle and reliable side. He had no idea how Song Yujin would coax Song Ci. There was no way he could just pat her head, right? Regardless, they were siblings. It was normal for him to coax her, so Lu Suo said, “Other than your sister and me, you can’t coax anyone else.”
Song Yujin nodded. He did not need to coax Lu Gan, right? After all, Lu Gan was very mature and steady.
Lu Suo was finally satisfied. He closed his eyes and went to sleep peacefully.
Lu Gan was also in a deep sleep. Song Ci looked at his handsome face and let out a long sigh.
“You’re already an adult and we’re newlyweds. How could you just sleep like this? There must be something wrong with you…”
Nonetheless, she lifted the blanket and crawled into Lu Gan’s arms. She thought that Lu Gan was the one who hugged her whenever they slept together.
Song Ci pulled Lu Gan’s hand and placed it on her waist. Leaning against him, she fell asleep.
The next morning, Lu Gan saw the person in his arms sleeping soundly. He could not help but poke her face. Then, he thought of her reactions the past few nights. Did she really want to fulfill her obligations as a wife with him? She did not regret her decision, right?
Lu Gan pinched her face. His heart was conflicted. He was still a man. Although he was very composed, he might not be able to hold back if she kept seducing him every day.

Suddenly, Song Ci’s phone rang. Lu Gan glanced at it. Was it Song He? Lu Gan did not have a good impression of Song He. Moreover, he thought Song He should not be disturbing Song Ci so early in the morning. Without wasting any time, he hung up her phone.
Meanwhile, Song He was in disbelief. Song Ci actually dared to hang up on him? He continued to call, which annoyed Lu Gan. Finally, Lu Gan blocked him.
Song He could no longer get through. He slammed the phone down in anger.
Pang Xiaohui fanned him with her hands and said, “See. I told you she had no conscience. She only managed to marry Lu Gan because of our help. Now that she has become Mrs. Lu, she ignores us. Look at your daughter’s attitude! As expected of a motherless child. She’s so uneducated.”
Song He also had the same thought. If Pang Xiaohui and Song Peihan did not contact Lu Gan and expressed their intentions of having a marriage, the thought would not have even crossed his mind. However, Song Ci was the one who benefitted from this. Pang Xiaohui and Song Peihan had paved the way for her. Now that she had succeeded, she became ungrateful.
“By the way, there’s one thing I haven’t told you. Before Song Ci got married, she demanded 50 million dollars from me. At that time, I was soft-hearted. I thought the Lu family would look down on her if she did not have any money. So, I complied…”
Pang Xiaohui deliberately added fuel to the fire.
Song He was shocked.
“You gave her that much money?”
Pang Xiaohui immediately acted like she was weak and looked at Song He with an aggrieved expression.
“Don’t worry.”
Song He comforted her.
“I’ll make sure she pays you back double the amount!”
Pang Xiaohui said awkwardly, “But you’ve seen how she acted. I’m afraid she doesn’t even think of you as a father anymore!”
In reality, Pang Xiaohui had never thought of letting the fifty million dollars go.
Song He sneered, “If she dares to mess around with me, I’ll tell Lu Gan about the 50 million. I’d like to see how he’ll react after finding out.”
Pang Xiaohui nodded.
“She still dares to complain about Lu Gan. Back then, she kept telling me that she doesn’t want to marry a cripple. If I don’t give her the money, she’ll never agree…”
