"Mm!"

Lu Xuan nodded in acknowledgment.

Suddenly, the scene was interrupted by the sound of a phone. Lu Xuan glanced at his phone, seeing that his mother—Liu Wanrong—was calling him again.

Taking his leave from the crowd, he came to a secluded corner and picked up the call.

"Hi, mom. What's up?"

From the phone, Liu Wanrong's voice could be heard. "You picked up Lu Yuling today, didn't you!"

"Yes, I did!" Lu Xuan replied flatly.

"Well, how was it?" Liu Wanrong asked, a hint of expectation in her tone.

Lu Xuan pouted, answering, "She looked down on me—your son!"

"What?" Liu Wanrong's voice instantly increased in volume. "What gives her the right to look down on my son? In what way is my son undeserving of her?"

Like an overprotective mother hen, Liu Wanrong was enraged in an instant.
