After waiting for quite a while, Song Yunchi still hadn't returned.
Lu Meng wavered and secretly slipped out of the bedroom to stake out the children's room.
She quietly opened the door a crack and peeked inside—
Song Yunchi was holding Little Jingxing, comforting him. It wasn't clear what had happened earlier, but Song Yunchi's voice was gentle as he gazed affectionately at the child.
That fatherly demeanor made Lu Meng dazed for a moment.
After putting Little Jingxing to sleep, Song Yunchi finally came out of the children's room. As he pushed the door open, he saw a figure swiftly disappearing at the bedroom doorway.
He smirked and shook his head helplessly.
...
It was already late at night, yet the lights remained bright in the South Wing study of the Main Building.
Mu Jingnan was working through the night, keeping himself busy, in order to restrain himself from troubling Situ Yunshu.
