ABRWF Chapter 174.2

The grandmother mentioned by Shang Xu should be Lu’s mother.

She was actually very curious about why Shang Xu, a four-year-old child, appeared in the deserted villa next door, with only an old butler accompanying him. For so long, except for his uncle Lu Qingyan who would take him out, she had not seen any other father, mother, or grandparents, as if they had abandoned him here.

Shang Xu sobbed and held Jiang Nanshu tightly.

She turned her head and said to Jiang Yunchuan and Jiang Zhouye helplessly: “Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, you go in first. I will send this kid home first.”

Jiang Yunchuan hesitated to speak.

Jiang Zhouye glanced at the old butler in the dark and lowered his voice, “The Shang family’s affairs are a bit complicated. This child… is the child of Lu Qingyan’s cousin. His mother is a daughter of the Lu family. She married into the Shang family to form an alliance. Don’t worry about him.”

Jiang Nanshu was a little confused.

The CPU was almost burned out by her.

So, Shang Xu’s father was Lu Qingyan’s cousin, and his mother should have been Lu Qingyan’s cousin before she got married, right?

She didn’t understand. Since Lu’s mother had already married into the Lu family, why did they send another one?

“Oh, I see.”

Shang Xu looked at Jiang Zhouye with hostility and hugged Jiang Nanshu even tighter. His little body was still shaking. He looked very pitiful.

The white gate of the manor was opened. Bright orange street lights lit up inside, and a red carpet was laid all the way to the steps of the villa gate.

Butler Qian stood at the gate of the manor and bowed to the three of them.

With a raised hand, the servants behind him said in unison: “Welcome home, young masters and young lady!”

Jiang Yunchuan and Jiang Zhouye walked in with uncertain expressions, obviously they had experienced this countless times.

Jiang Nanshu, who was experiencing this for the first time: “…”

“It’s so tacky, but I like it so much! Ahhh, if I wasn’t sending this little brat home, I would also want to walk in on the red carpet!”

She held Shang Xu in her arms and gritted her teeth, “It’s all your fault, otherwise, I would have been able to walk on the red carpet.”

Shang Xu was aggrieved, and his soft voice was much lower: “Well, then I’ll make the bed for you tomorrow, okay? You save my Xiao Ha first.”

Jiang Nanshu sighed, “I really lost to you. Where did you throw the dog? You are allergic to dog hair, so you’d better not keep it.”

When this was mentioned, Shang Xu burst into tears.

“No, no, Xiao Ha is my good friend. I don’t want it to leave. Woo, woo, my mother clearly promised me that as long as I obediently came here, she would let me keep a puppy. They lied to me.”

Jiang Nanshu: “…”

She touched Shang Xu’s soft black hair and said, “Silly child, do you believe what adults say to coax the children?”

The two people entered the gate of the black manor, and the old butler followed them in.

Because of Shang Xu’s guidance, Jiang Nanshu quickly found Xiao Ha.

It was now locked in a cage in the basement. Because it was not airtight, the mixed smell was unpleasant.

Only when it saw a familiar person would it excitedly wag its tail and bark continuously.

The soft white fur on its body also became dirty, which Jiang Nanshu felt disgusted about.

“Where is the key? Where is it?”

Shang Xu shook his head: “Phuket Island.”

Jiang Nanshu looked around, trying to find a sharp tool to open the cage, but she found that the surroundings were arranged like a child’s study room, with a small bed and a desk piled with books.

She felt a little weird.

The light above her head suddenly flashed, and the door of the basement closed automatically.

“Ah, woo, woo, no, no, open the door, woo, woo, don’t lock me in.”

Shang Xu seemed to be stimulated by something. He ran over and knelt on the ground. He patted the door tightly with his little hands and cried loudly.

“I will be obedient. Don’t lock me in. I don’t want to watch Xiao Ha anymore, woo, woo…”

Jiang Nanshu fell into darkness.

*****

The author has something to say:

Shang Xu is the portrayal of Lu Qingyan’s childhood, a poor baby.
