Chapter 697 Understand How They Felt

The next day, Ning Ran quietly slipped out of Mountview Inn. She didn’t have the courage to show herself in a public

place, so she went straight to Lu Jingyuan’s villa in Livingsfill.

After she rang the doorbell, the housekeeper was the one who opened the door. She didn’t know Ning Ran, so she

refused to let her in.

Lu Yunxue ended up hearing the commotion and ran over, saying, “This is Ms. Ning. Let her in.” Ning Ran

immediately picked Lu Yunxue up. “Did you hear my voice, Darling?”

“No. I had a feeling it was you, though,” Lu Yunxue said. Ning Ran stared at her suspiciously. “Really?” “Yes! We

hardly have any guests. You’re the only person who could have come,” she replied earnestly.

Ning Ran stepped in with Lu Yunxue in her arms. Lu Yunbing approached as well, and surprisingly, there was a smile

on her usually cold face. “Hello, Ms. Ning.”

“Good girl. Where’s your mommy?” Ning Ran asked.

“She’s asleep,” answered Lu Yunbing.

Ning Ran checked the time. It was already half past ten, yet Lu Jingyuan was sleeping.

What an eye-opener! I can’t believe there’s actually someone lazier than me in this world.

“Did she stay up late last night?” Ning Ran questioned.

“I don’t know. We fell asleep early,” Lu Yunxue stated while Lu Yunbing nodded in confirmation.

The way they were cooperating with each other seemed too familiar to Ning Ran. Dabao and Erbao did things like

that all the time.

Usually, Dabao was in charge of nodding or shaking his head while Erbao explained the situation.

However, whenever Erbao hit a roadblock, Dabao would speak up for her.

For the most part, Dabao would remain silent, but whenever he piped up, he would shock the adults with his

accurate reasoning and irrefutable claims.

The same could be said for Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing. The only difference was that they were both girls.

Ning Ran genuinely felt that she was fated to meet these girls. The feeling that destiny had brought them together

was so strong that it felt as if everything was predetermined.

“I’ll go wake Mommy up, Ms. Ning,” said Lu Yunbing.

“Never mind. Just let her sleep for a bit more. It’s not like I have something important to say, anyway. We can chat

for a while first.” Ning Ran grinned.

“Have you had your breakfast, Ms. Ning? I’ll make some for you,” Lu Yunbing offered.

“You know how to make breakfast?”

“Mommy always wakes up late, so we make our own breakfast. It’s nothing special, actually. We just have warm

milk and bread,” she explained.

Ning Ran exclaimed, “Wow! That’s amazing. Does your mommy always wake up late?”

The two of them nodded at the same time. “Yes. She usually doesn’t get up before ten unless there’s something

going on, in which case she wakes up early sometimes.”

Ning Ran smiled. Looks like she’s indeed a lot lazier than me!

“Why didn’t Erbao and Dabao come, Ms. Ning?” That was Lu Yunxue’s primary concern.

Ning Ran hadn’t brought the children along because she was there to talk business with Lu Jingyuan.

“They’re playing with their uncle today, so they didn’t come with me,” she responded.

“They have an uncle?” Lu Yunxue widened her eyes, and she had an envious look on her face.

“They do. Their uncle resembles their daddy quite a lot,” Ning Ran remarked with a chuckle.

“I don’t have an uncle or a daddy. I only have a mommy,” Lu Yunxue lowered her head dejectedly. Her expression

was glum.

Upon seeing that, Ning Ran felt sorry for her. Much like Erbao, Lu Yunxue was a people person who enjoyed the

company of others.

Unfortunately, Lu Jingyuan was aloof and distant by nature. She enjoyed being alone and resided with her two

daughters in a tiny secluded city on the borders.

The woman herself had mentioned that even though this was her ideal lifestyle, it wasn’t necessarily the case for

her children.

“You have me, though. You also have Erbao, who’s your good friend. We’re like family to you,” comforted Ning Ran.

“Bring us over to go and play with them, then! We want Erbao’s uncle to be our uncle too.” Lu Yunxue immediately

got excited.

Ning Ran stilled for a bit. So that’s what she wanted.

“Of course, but we’ll have to ask your mommy first. I can’t take you away unless she’s okay with it,” Ning Ran

stated with a grin.

“Mommy will definitely agree! If she doesn’t, you can try to change her mind,” Lu Yunxue mumbled.

The little girl’s words made Ning Ran laugh again. She’s so funny and mischievous.

“Okay. I’ll convince her. Don’t worry about it,” she reassured.

“Thank you, Ms. Ning!” Lu Yunxue was overjoyed.

Meanwhile, Lu Yunbing listened to the exchange quietly at the side without any objections.

She wasn’t opposed to the idea of going to play with Erbao and the others. Though they could be quite noisy, it was

quite fun.

“Oh, right. There’s one more thing,” Lu Yunxue whispered.

“Oh. What is it?” Ning Ran brought her ear closer to Lu Yunxue.

“Can you ask my mommy if I have a daddy or not?” she requested.

That was a serious problem. Ning Ran wasn’t sure how to respond for a moment. “What has your mommy told you

about your daddy so far?”

She had to be cautious about it. After all, it was a personal matter of Lu Jingyuan’s.

“She said that we don’t have one, that’s all,” Lu Yunbing chimed in, which was something she usually wouldn’t do.

It was apparent that she was rather interested in the topic as well. After all, it was quite a major issue.

Ning Ran felt her heart wrench for she understood the two kids’ feelings.

Dabao and Erbao used to ask her the same question all the time.

Back then, she wasn’t sure how to answer them in a way that wouldn’t upset them.

In the end, she realized that they wouldn’t be happy no matter what she said.

A father isn’t like any other item. To children, a father was an essential figure in life. The sorrow and disappointment

of not having a father wouldn’t just go away after a short period of time. Instead, it would stick with them for the

rest of their life.

“I think you two have a daddy. Maybe your mommy has her own concerns. That’s why she chooses to keep it from

you. When you’re older, you’ll understand that some things are complicated,” Ning Ran explained.

That was all that she could say, for she didn’t have an understanding of the situation. She couldn’t give them an

exact answer on Lu Jingyuan’s behalf.

Regarding this matter, she had to gather more information instead of uttering baseless remarks.

“What I’m trying to say is that I want you to ask Mommy and find out the truth. Then, you can secretly tell me.

Don’t worry. I won’t tell Mommy that you were the one who let me know,” Lu Yunxue whispered.

Hearing that, Ning Ran felt sorry for Lu Yunxue and hugged her. “No matter what answer your mommy gives you,

she still loves you two. Your mommy will always prioritize your happiness regardless of whether you have a daddy

or not. You should know that.”

That was what she used to say to Dabao and Erbao in the past.

Never had she expected that she would be saying those same words to two other children.

On top of that, they weren’t even her children.

It didn’t seem like Lu Yunxue fully comprehended the meaning of the woman’s words. Her black, gem-like eyes

blinked as she nodded.

Right then, they heard the sound of someone walking over in slippers. Lu Jingyuan had finally woken up.

The moment she was up, Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing stopped talking.

“You’re here. Why didn’t you wake me up?” Lu Jingyuan felt a little embarrassed as she smoothed out her messy

hair.

“It’s nothing important, so I didn’t wake you. Did you get a good night’s sleep?” Ning Ran asked.

“I did wake up pretty late today. Sorry about that,” Lu Jingyuan apologized.

“It’s fine. I get up quite late when I don’t have to work, too,” Ning Ran replied while chuckling.

“Please, make yourself at home while I go and wash up. Bing, go make some tea for Ms. Ning,” instructed Lu

Jingyuan.

Lu Yunbing jutted out her lips in response while Lu Yunxue tactfully stood up to serve their guest.

“I’ll do it myself. The water’s hot, and the kids might scald themselves,” said Ning Ran right away.
