After the meal, everyone left and went home. The Lu family arranged guest rooms for the three members of the Shen family.

"No need, Brother Lu, we have a place to stay, it's right next door."

Xiang Jiahui declined Lu Jianguo's offer to stay overnight. From the moment they decided to come to City A, she instructed Shen Xizhou to arrange a place for them.

The house next door to the Lu family's house had been vacant for a long time, as the owners lived abroad year-round, so they bought it at a high price.

The house is fully renovated and cleaned in advance. A lot of furniture has been replaced, and it's ready for immediate move-in.

So the question is, should Tang Wanning go back to her parents' and brother's home to live, or should she stay at the Lu family's house?

"So it was you guys next door. I was wondering why you were making such a big fuss all of a sudden, since we never see anyone next door."

It turns out they were already prepared.

When Lu Chenyue said those words to Jia Hui, he immediately looked at Tang Wanning.

What terrible things has he done?

Tang Wanning stood there awkwardly. Logically, she should have gone back with her parents, since she and Lu Chenyue were not yet married.

"It's getting late, so we won't stay any longer. We're all next door anyway, so we can see each other anytime."

The group prepared to leave.

"Ningning, what are you standing there for? Come on, let's go home."

Shen Xizhou looked at Tang Wanning, who was standing still, and called out to her.

"Oh, I haven't packed my things yet."

"No need to pack, everything is prepared for you at home."

Shen Xizhou not only prepared clothes for his younger sister for all four seasons, but also provided everything Le Bao needed. In other words, they didn't need to take anything with them; they only needed to go there in person.

For a moment, the eyes of the Lu family members all turned to Lu Chenyue.

Lu Chenyue stood there stunned. He had thought Shen Xizhou was too calm when he heard that his sister was going back to City A. So this was where he was waiting for him.

It seems he got too carried away recently, thinking that he could rest easy once he got his mother-in-law's support.

Tang Wanning glanced at Lu Chenyue and followed behind Shen Xizhou reluctantly.

"Le Bao, let's go home."

Before leaving, he didn't forget to call Le Bao, who was playing, along.

Good heavens, they're trying to tear his house down!

"Is Le Bao leaving too? Why don't we let her sleep here?"

When his granddaughter also wanted to leave, Lu Jianguo couldn't hold back any longer.

"Uncle Lu, Le Bao will look for his mother at night."

The Lu family members fell silent; at this moment, silence was the essence of Cambridge tonight.

"This is my home. Where are you going, Uncle?"

The chubby boy heard his uncle call and ran over.

The chubby boy's words silenced Shen Xizhou. She wasn't wrong; this was her home too, but it wasn't Tang Wanning's home yet. Tang Wanning was leaving, so would the little guy follow her?

"Le Bao, here's the thing. Your uncle bought a house next door, and your grandparents, mom, uncle, and Shen An will all be living there. So, would you like to live with mom or dad?"

The age-old dilemma of choosing between mom and dad has finally fallen on the little one's head.

Le Bao blinked and tilted her head:

"Baby, with Daddy and Mommy together."

Only a fool would make a choice; she's incredibly smart, she wants it all.

Hearing Le Bao say that, the eyes of the Lu family members lit up again. Maybe Le Bao really could handle this.

Xiang Jiahui and Shen Huaqiang stood aside, watching the little guy with smiles. They didn't say anything, just watched the uncle and grandson argue.

"Baby, it's like this. Daddy and Mommy aren't married yet, so we can't live together. Mommy needs to live with her own parents."

Shen Xizhou squatted down and patiently explained to the little guy.

"Is Senyao getting married?"

"Marriage is about two people who love each other forming a family and living together."

"Let's share the debts of dad and mom together, and with the baby too."

Le Bao stared at Shen Xizhou with her big, round eyes, as if to say, "Uncle is so silly. Mom and Dad have always lived together."

"No, it's because... to put it simply, your mother is going to live with us in the house next door. Do you want to go next door with your mother or stay here with your father?"

Shen Xizhou found that he couldn't refute what his niece said.

"No, no, both Daddy and Mommy!"

She didn't want anyone else; she just wanted her parents to be with her.

She stepped forward and grabbed one of them with each hand, holding on tightly.

"How about we let Le Bao sleep here tonight?"

Tang Wanning could see the Lu family's reluctance; they must have missed Le Bao terribly since he hadn't been by their side for a while.

"Yay, yay, little sister, can I sleep with you tonight?"

Lu Shulang stepped forward and hugged Le Bao; he missed his little sister so much.

"I left you lots of snacks, and I hid them secretly. We'll eat them quietly tonight without the adults knowing."

He covered Le Bao's ears and whispered in her ear.

The little fat boy's eyes lit up when he heard about lots of snacks.

"Oh, I'm sleeping with my boyfriend."

Without hesitation, she chose to abandon her parents, who had just argued with her, and follow her brother who had snacks.

Tang Wanning and Lu Chenyue were speechless as they looked at the little guy's hand that he had let go of.

Just seconds ago she was unyielding, but in the blink of an eye she abandoned them.

Lu Jianguo was happy, no matter what, his granddaughter stayed. He could hold his sweet-smelling granddaughter to sleep again at night.

Tang Wanning went upstairs to pack some daily necessities and took her computer with her.

Lu Chenyue followed behind her, and the moment she opened the door, he pushed her inside and closed the door.

"What should we do, baby? We're going to have to live separately from now on."

Holding Tang Wanning in his arms, Lu Chenyue rested his chin on her head, reluctant to let go.

"We were already separated."

They didn't sleep in the same room; they were originally staying separately.

"That's different."

While living at the Lu family's house, he could sneak off whenever he wanted; but now that he's back at the Shen family's house, they'll probably have a hard time even seeing each other.

Shen Xizhou, that guy, we're wary of him like he's the most important person in the world.

"Then you'll need to work harder and try to overcome the difficulties as soon as possible."

"Baby, you mean...?"

Lu Chenyue was overwhelmed with immense joy.

Does she mean by saying this that she's reminding him to propose soon?

"I didn't say anything."

Tang Wanning turned around haughtily and went to pack her things.

Lu Chenyue stood there alone, grinning foolishly.

Tang Wanning was worried that Le Bao would cry when she left, but when she reached the door, the little guy didn't try to stop her.

"Le Bao, Mommy's leaving now. Be a good boy and listen to Grandpa and Daddy."

"Bye-bye, Mom."

Le Bao simply said goodbye to his mother.

Something's not right, very not right. This little one is usually so clingy, but today, even as she was leaving, she was waving goodbye with a smile on her face.

Despite harboring doubts, Tang Wanning still followed her elder brother.

However, she sent Lu Chenyue a message:

"Lu Chenyue, Le Bao is acting strangely tonight. Keep an eye on her; she might be up to something again."

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. A little chubby boy's one move and his mother knew he was up to no good.

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her."

Only after Tang Wanning's figure disappeared into the darkness did everyone return to their rooms.

"Mommy, I want to sleep with Le Bao and Grandpa tonight."

As soon as he got back, Lu Shulang told his mother his request.

"Okay, then you must take good care of your sister and grandfather."

"Don't worry, Mom."

With her mother's permission, Lu Shulang took Le Bao's hand and led her upstairs.
