Ning Li, "..."

Gu Tinglan felt a lump in his chest.

"Second Master Lu is too polite. I can't possibly ask you to call me 'Little Uncle'."

Lu Huaiyu's lips curled into a smile, his expression sincere.

"No, we're all family."

The hand that Gu Tinglan was using to hold onto the door frame slowly tightened.

He should've known that Lu Huaiyu was not an easy man to deal with!

He had called him 'Little Uncle" so very naturally!

Without trying to reason with him any further, Gu Tinglan took a deep breath and turned to look at Ning Li.

"Ah Li, did you remember what I told you just now?"

-- Spend more time with your grandparents and Shen Zhijin.

As for Lu Huaiyu... who cared!

Ning Li blinked.

"Oh, okay."

Lu Huaiyu's gaze swept over the two of them, and he asked with a smile, "I wonder if it'd be convenient for me to listen to Little Uncle's teachings as well?"
