When Su Xi logged back in, she found that Liu Ruyan had disappeared from the harem section. Could it be that when she saw the kid talking to her by the river that day, he was actually saying something like “I’m taking my leave”?
After Su Xi guessed that the kid could see her, every cell in her body tensed up.
She went home, changed her shoes, and awkwardly walked to the sofa. She put down her schoolbag, sat up straight, turned on the TV, and began watching a serious legal program. Yes, she had to wash away the terrible impression her child had of her being a fan of pornography.
Soon after, Su Xi’s parents returned. They were quite startled to see Su Xi sitting upright on the sofa as if the sun had risen in the west.
Su Xi went over and helped her mother take off her coat, her smile as robotic as a robot: “Mom, let me help you. Dad, I’ve poured you some tea. Go and rest for a while.”
To set an example, one must change one’s own image.
When Father Su saw that there was indeed steaming tea on the coffee table, he was immediately flattered. While Mother Su stared at Su Xi suspiciously, then she stepped forward and touched her forehead, “Are you running a fever, child? Why are you acting like you’ve lost your mind?”
Su Xi: “…”
Su Xi’s face was almost frozen from smiling. She turned around and went into the bathroom to wash her hair.
As soon as she turned on the tap, Mother Su said incredulously, “Xi Xi, didn’t you just wash your hair yesterday? Why are you washing it again tonight? Tomorrow is Saturday, you don’t need to go out. I’ve never seen you so eager to wash your hair before—”
After a moment of hesitation, Mom suddenly realized something and blurted out, “Xi Xi, are you in a relationship?”
Su Xi was stunned by those words, and her mind went blank.
A few seconds later, she suddenly reacted as if she’d been stepped on, turning off the tap and rushing out of the bathroom into her room, shouting guiltily, “Puppy love? How could that be? Mom, you’re overthinking it. I give up! I just forgot I showered yesterday. I’m not showering anymore!”
Su Xi leaned against the door, her heart pounding and her face flushed. Early romance? What the hell? How could she possibly be in a relationship?
Does not having a romantic relationship in early childhood mean you can’t wash your hair every day? What kind of logic is that?
She just felt like she was being watched, and the urge to perform came out of her head for no reason. She couldn’t possibly be labeled as “unwilling to wash her hair,” “reading pornographic books,” or “unable to distinguish between grains, lazy, and unable to run 800 meters” in front of her child!
Hearing her parents laughing outside, Su Xi wished she could disappear into a hole in the ground.
She took out her phone with a blank expression, her heart filled with a frantic prayer that her little one hadn’t seen her embarrassing moment.
However, as soon as she turned on the screen and switched to the kid’s view, she saw the boy who was camping in the wilderness trying his best to keep a straight face, but he still couldn’t help but puff out his cheeks and look at her with bright eyes.
Su Xi: …
Su Xi finally yelled in frustration, “Lu Huan, I know you can see this. If you laugh at me again, I’m never going online again!”
On the screen, Lu Huan’s expression hardened, and the smile that was about to burst from his face vanished completely. He raised two fingers and solemnly swore, “I didn’t see anything just now.”
Su Xi suddenly asked, “You didn’t see anything when I took a shower either?”
Lu Huan hadn’t actually seen anything, but he couldn’t help but recall the scene he almost witnessed that day. He tried to calm himself down, but because of the near-accident, he stammered, “No.”
Seeing the boy in his red outfit looking like he wanted to copy “Don’t look at what you shouldn’t see” three hundred times over, Su Xi was furious. She thought he really had seen something. She couldn’t help but glance down at her own unremarkable figure, feeling even more frustrated. Mainly, why didn’t he tell her when he could see her? If he had, she could at least have washed her hair and changed her clothes! She stayed home every day in her pajamas eating potato chips— it was so unsightly and annoying!
Her image was completely ruined.
Su Xi was on the verge of tears. After calming down, she said to her kid in a retaliatory manner, “We’re even. Anyway, I’ve seen you taking a bath more than once.”
She thought her son would be thunderstruck, his face turning deathly pale, after all, his innocence had been taken from him, but who knew—
The boy on the screen suddenly blushed, as if he couldn’t breathe properly. He didn’t dare to look at her anymore and silently turned his back.
“Nonsense.”
Then, a hint of clouds, which hadn’t appeared in him for a long time, slowly emerged from the top of his head.
Su Xi: …
No, what’s there to be happy about?!
The author has something to say:
Su Xi: I’ve seen you taking a bath more than once.
Lu Huan: Nonsense.
Su Xi: Then I will never watch it again.
Lu Huan: Nonsense.
Su Xi: ???
(Lu Huan took out his notebook and silently wrote it down. It turned out that in her dynasty, washing one’s hair every day meant having someone one liked.)
