At lunch, Lu Yunxue kept shooting looks at Ning Ran.

Ning Ran understood Lu Yunxue wanted her to suggest letting the latter join them at Mountview Inn.

Lu Jingyuan had long noticed something was amiss with Lu Yunxue's actions, so she glared at her and asked, “Is something wrong with your eyes? You're always blinking.”

Lu Yunxue quickly lowered her head. “Nope. I'm fine. The food tastes amazing!”

“Yunxue, before I came here, Erbao told me she missed you two after not seeing you two for a few days. Do you want to come with me to the inn?” Ning Ran asked softly.

Hearing that, Lu Yunxue did not say anything in response. She raised her head and looked at her mom instead.

“No, thanks. She's quite troublesome to look after. I shouldn't let her disrupt your peaceful time there,” Lu Jingyuan rejected the offer.

Lu Yunxue stopped eating, looking very disappointed.

“I think letting the kids spend more time together is not so bad. It won't disrupt anything. The kids don't like it when it's too quiet,” Ning Ran tried to persuade Lu Jingyuan.

“No, thanks. Really. She can be very troublesome.”

Since Lu Jingyuan refused to let her kids join them, there was nothing Ning Ran could do.

“I can go on my own. Yunbing can stay here. Then, it won't be too noisy. I promised Erbao I'd play with her, so I can't just break my promise. I have to keep my word.” Lu Yunxue could no longer remain silent. She knew if she still didn't say anything, she would not get a chance to go out and play.

“I knew it. You only want to go because you want to play. That's all you think about,” Lu Jingyuan reprimanded.

“I'm a kid, and my only responsibility is to play. What else can I do?” Lu Yunxue weakly defended herself.

“You can read books like Yunbing. Don't you have anything better to do than play?”

“Yunbing reads because she likes reading. I don't like reading. I don't understand the books too. I prefer playing with Erbao! Just like how you like hanging out with Ms. Ning. It's the same, Mommy! Why can adults always hang out, but we kids can't do the same?”

Her argument was valid and reasonable. However, Lu Yunxue hung her head low as she spoke, not having the courage to look at Lu Jingyuan because she was afraid of being lectured.

“How dare you talk back to me? Are you saying I can't tell you what you can and cannot do?” Lu Jingyuan was angered.

“I think Yunxue is right. I like reading, but she just doesn't.” Lu Yunbing spoke up for her sister.

It was a rare sight to see. Lu Yunbing always looked down on her sister for only spending her time playing and eating instead of doing anything meaningful.
