The moment the cheap son pushed open the door, a flash of panic flashed across his eyes…

　　But soon, he calmed down.

　　There was silence for a moment both inside and outside the door.

　　Qin Qingqing realized belatedly that her words must have been heard by her adopted son.

　　But–

　　It’s nothing to hear.

　　Anyway, he will know sooner or later.

　　She smiled and looked back at Lu Liye: “What’s wrong?”

　　Lu Liye frowned.

　　long time……

　　He managed to utter: “I didn’t mean it.”

　　”I know.”

　　”You didn’t push open the door on purpose. I just forgot to close it.”

　　Qin curved her eyes slightly.

　　”so……”

　　”You came to me, what’s the matter?”

　　“…”

　　Lu Liye was somewhat uncomfortable with this.

　　The woman’s smile.

　　He hasn’t seen it for a long time.

　　Just like, he accidentally saw her crying in the morning…

　　But–

　　Today, he had to admit: she was very beautiful and attractive when she smiled; she was also pretty when she cried, but he didn’t like it.

　　wrong!

　　Whether she was crying or laughing, he never liked her.

　　Lu Liye frowned.

　　He stood there again, looking at Qin Qingqing for a while, then he pushed the door open slightly stiffly and walked in.

　　In his hand, he was holding a card.

　　yes……

　　Made of the same material as the previous birthday invitation.

　　Lu Liye put the card on the table.

　　Qin Qingqing finally recognized it: this was indeed an invitation to a birthday party.

　　But wasn’t the previous one already crumpled into a ball by Lu Bai?

　　She felt confused.

　　Then the cheap son started talking.

　　He said, “My father went to work. He asked me to bring this to you. Remember to be on time.”

　　”oh……”

　　Qin Qingqing nodded obediently.

　　”besides.”

　　This time, Lu Liye paused for a moment; his voice was inexplicably more aggressive—

　　”It’s none of your business.”

　　Apparently—

　　Although he had heard her words before, he was unwilling to do so…or rather, he did not believe that Qin Qingqing could really do what she said.

　　Maybe, she said those things just to slap the maid in the face?

　　still……

　　Has she found a new way to torture him?

　　Lu Liye instantly thought of the last time she went to his school.

　　His expression suddenly became much more sinister, and his eyes were filled with hostility!

　　Finally, he glared at her with a warning look –

　　He left her room without hesitation.

　　Qin Qingqing didn’t have time to say a word except for an “Oh” during the whole process:…rebellious son.

　　The next second, another discordant voice suddenly sounded –

　　”lady.”

　　”Is this what you call ‘proper education’?”

　　”But–“

　　”Why do I think the young master doesn’t buy it?”

　　Lin An pretended to be concerned about his wife, but deep down, she was secretly very happy!

　　hehe……

　　With Qin Qingqing’s brain, you still want to beat her?

　　Now, it’s a failure, right?

　　Being sabotaged by her own son, Qin Qingqing will definitely turn around and ask her for advice… Then, she can make a big profit from Qin Qingqing!

　　Oh, right! Don’t forget: the “medical expenses” that you haven’t received yet!

　　Wouldn’t it be easy for her to make a few hundred thousand this time?

　　Lin An’s abacus made a clacking sound.

　　But I don’t know——

　　Qin Qingqing didn’t take her son’s warning to heart at all.

　　She even: doesn’t think it’s a “turnaround”.

　　after all–

　　The original owner had treated Lu Liye harshly for more than ten years; when she came, she said such empty words. It would be a miracle if Lu Liye believed them!

　　But it doesn’t matter.

　　Once she personally investigates the causes and consequences of his “absenteeism and fighting” and handles it impartially… he will not be so resistant to her.

　　Qin Qingqing carefully put away the brand new invitation on the table.

　　He was looking at Lin An with a smile again——

　　She said:

　　”Whether the young master buys it or not, you don’t need to worry about it.”

　　”but–“

　　”You’d better take my words to heart.”

　　”???”

　　Lin An looked up in surprise.

　　Her words?

　　Isn’t it just that “don’t use ‘harsh education’, find out the reasons behind the mistakes made by the naughty children and prescribe the right medicine”?

　　But–

　　How could that be?

　　How could Qin Qingqing not ask for advice after being sabotaged by her own son?

　　Then…how can she still take advantage of others?

　　Yes, that’s right!

　　She still has “medical expenses” to ask for.

　　Lin An calmed himself down.

　　He answered very perfunctorily:

　　”I understand, ma’am. I will listen to you and refuse ‘harsh education’…”

　　after all–

　　Lin An loves her son very much!

　　From the beginning to the end, she just wanted to fleece the lady and made up the pretext of “harsh education”.

　　She played her wife around in the palm of her hand.

　　So this time, she just let it go and continued to play with the lady…

　　But the lady interrupted her.

　　”No.”

　　Qin Qingqing’s voice was as arrogant as ever.

　　She said:

　　”What I mean is: don’t say bad things about my son in front of me in the future; otherwise, I will think you are deliberately trying to sow discord between us mother and son.”

　　”after all–“

　　”I’m a mom who’s on the verge of abandoning ‘harsh parenting.'”

　　Qin said this gently, still very noble and cold… and glanced at Lin An.

　　This glance almost made Lin An’s eyes go black!

　　“…”

　　So, if she just wanted to say this, was it necessary for Qin Qingqing to let her experience firsthand the feeling of being “treated harshly”?

　　Qin Qingqing, are you just teasing her? !

　　But Lin An had no choice but to nod and say “yes”.

　　Then, I swallowed all the frustration into my stomach…

　　Of course, she hasn’t forgotten to ask for medical expenses.
