The Villain and the Cannon Fodder's Mother

Chapter 194 – 14 years old… That was so far away! Would she even be alive then? (2)

Someone answered the call from the other end with a “Hello”. The man had a magnetic voice.

Lu Xun said in a worried voice, “Brother Yan? This is Lu Xun.”

“Boss Lu?” Meng Yan frowned a little. Of course he knew it was a call from Lu Xun. He was baffled by why Lu Xun was calling. And referring to him so affectionately as Brother Yan. This was not the first time either.

When his fans referred to him as Brother Yan, that was a form of affection.

With the exception of a few that he was close to in the entertainment circle, most others referred to him as Instructor Meng. Lu Xun, as the CEO of Shengshi Entertainment, referring to him as Instructor Meng would be a form of respect. It’d also be perfectly normal for him to just refer to him by his full name.

But him and Lu Xun… Did the two of them have such a close relationship with each other?

“With regards to the article about Zhang Xiying and Yu Yi on the most trending list, our Public Relation team is already on top of it.”

How did that saying go again? To live an okay life, there would always be some greenness on one’s head. That was hilarious!

Meng Yan, “……”

Naturally, he was aware of the article. Nevertheless…

“I don’t see what that has to do with your company?”

Meng Yan did a quick search online. Sure enough, it was much “quieter” now.

He had, of course, also hired his own Public Relation team to take care of that. But, when it came to the abilities of Public Relation teams, that of a tycoon such as Shengshi Entertainment was the real expert in the field. All of the others were just new players in the field compared to them.

“Thank you, Boss Lu.” Meng Yan thanked him wholeheartedly.

“No worries.” Lu Xun grinned. “It was only because your wife was in one of Xinri’s film and I don’t think Yiyi would like to have any ‘dirt’.”

Meng Yan, “……”

Yup. He only called to make fun of him!

Lu Xun saw Lin Yiyi walking out of her office as soon as he hung up the phone.

He was still grinning, and Lin Yiyi was baffled by the look on him.

“It’s still early right now. Good time to go pick up the kids first.”

Lin Yiyi took a look at the time on her cellphone.

These last couple of days, Meng Shanshan’s two new incisors finally started to grow out where the gap was.

When the teeth first erupted, Meng Shanshan was very not used to it and would touch them with her fingers frequently. When she touched the hard gum, she’d feel both discomfort and joy.

Mommy had told her that her teeth would be growing out soon!

Meng Shanshan loved anything sweet, especially candies.

Lin Yiyi didn’t pay this too much attention at the beginning. It wasn’t like she had real experiences giving birth and raising children. It had only been a little bit over five months since she had been an instant mother. She was used to happily playing with her two children, then she discovered that there were always snacks inside Meng Shanshan’s pocket and her little backpack. And Shanshan would pull them out and eat them from time to time!

“You can’t have any more candies recently!”

Sitting inside the car, Lin Yiyi searched through Meng Shanshan’s little backpack thoroughly. It was only after she had confirmed that she did not miss anything that she said to her with a solemn look, “This is the critical time when your teeth are growing out. No candies or anything sweet.”

As much as it pained her so, Meng Shanshan still docilely pulled out two pieces of toffees from her pocket and handed them over to Lin Yiyi.

Ahem! This little girl still has some self-discipline.

“Then, Mommy, when will I be able to have them again?”

She was very sad as she watched Lin Yiyi put the toffees away!

It was natural for permanent teeth to erupt in six-year-old children.

The first permanent molar would be the first to erupt among the second deciduous molars, also known as the six-year-old teeth. Then, all of the deciduous teeth would slowly be replaced by permanent teeth between 6~7.

Lin Yiyi thought about it for a little bit and said to the little girl with a smile, “You can have them again when you turn 14 years old.”

Meng Shanshan was stunned.

14 years old… That was so far away! Would she even be alive then?

Meng Yuran also found out that all of his sister’s candies were confiscated when they arrived home. He couldn’t help but feel a bit happy about it.

“All you do is eat all day long. You are going to turn into a chubby little girl, you know that?” He even flicked her on her little forehead. “Listen to Mom and have less junk food.”

Meng Shanshan, “……”

She wanted to cry so badly!

And, right then and there, Lu Mingzhe waved at her.

The little girl immediately walked away from her own brother in search of comfort elsewhere.

Meng Yuran, who had been abandoned, “……”

Yup, that guy was still a jerk! Speaking off, why was he over at their place all the time recently?!

Lu Mingzhe had already pulled out a bag of beef jerky from his backpack. “Homemade beef jerky. Have a bite when you really want to have junk food.”

Beef jerky was way better than candies anyway one looked at it.

Plus, it would also grind the teeth. That way she wouldn’t have to put her fingers into her mouth to feel around all the time!

“Thank you, Big Brother Zhe.”

Taking the beef jerky from him, she quickly broke off a piece and put it inside her mouth.

The homemade beef jerky was quite chewy.

“Good?”

Judging from the satisfying look on her, she must like it a lot.

The little girl was only too busy to respond. She looked up at him as she was chewing on the beef jerky.

The very next second, a mouthful of beef jerky was shoved into Lu Mingzhe’s mouth.

Lu Mingzhe, “……”

Finally swallowing the beef jerky, Meng Shanshan said, “Yes, very tasty!”

Even though candies were still better. She knew better than saying the second part out loud. She only asked him, “Tasty, right?”

Lu Mingzhe chewed on the beef jerky and acknowledged her, “Not bad.”

The very familial scene was so disturbing! Thought Meng Yuran to himself in a very sarcastic way, refusing to admit that he was jealous.

Meng Shanshan glanced over at him covertly before she casually looked away.

She refused to share her beef jerky with her mean big brother!
