Chapter 1020 A Chat With Grandpa

While Lu Jingyuan may be indifferent toward Nan Xing, her attitude was far from a green light for her children to treat him disrespectfully.

After all, she had her own set of rules for her children. Paramount among them was courtesy.

Hence, she promptly chastised Lu Yunbing, “You shouldn't speak to Mr. Nan in that manner.”

Nan Xing was surprised to hear Lu Jingyuan defending him. He widened his eyes in disbelief and said, “It's all right... Kids will be kids...”

Lu Jingyuan knew that he must have misunderstood her intention and swiftly added, “A child needs to understand the significance of manners, irrespective of how distasteful the company might be.”

Nan Xing was flabbergasted.

Distasteful? Who? Me? Do I look ugly? Or do I lack money, status, or social standing? Have I displayed deplorable morals or a vulgar demeanor? How am I... distasteful?

Nan Xing felt utterly humiliated and yearned for an escape. There was even a fleeting notion of death to prove his innocence.

However, Lu Jingyuan then said, “Since Mr. Nan seemingly has a lot of free time and enjoys sending children to school, let's have him drop you guys off. I suppose that would make him very happy.”

She had agreed to Nan Xing's request, but her words dripped with sarcasm.

Fine, I'll pity you and let you send them.

Leaving Lu Yunbing and Lu Yunxue behind, Lu Jingyuan drove off to work.

Lu Yunbing had intended to stand by her mother's side and confront Nan Xing. What's going on? Why did Mommy leave on her own? I'll have to give in since she's not here.

After all, she was a child and couldn't possibly walk to school herself.

Sulkily, she climbed into Nan Xing's car and turned to gaze out the window, determined to ignore the man.

In contrast with her sister, Lu Yunxue seemed to thoroughly enjoy conversing with Nan Xing.
