"I just suggested they go out for a walk, so they probably won't be back for about an hour."
Shitou enjoyed watching Lu Yun's panic for a while before he leisurely spoke up.
"You did that on purpose." Lu Yun accused him, grief-stricken.
"Yes, I did it on purpose." Shitou's smile didn't fade as he admitted it without any sign of guilt, his eyes squinting at Lu Yun. "Now that they're not here, do you have anything you want to say to me?"
"...What? I don't know what you're talking about? I want Daddy, I want Mommy."
Lu Yun paused for a few seconds and then pouted, starting to play the crying game, which suited her perfectly since she was a child now.
Lu Yun internally mourned the fact that she inexplicably became weaker in the presence of this man, without any baseless loss of confidence. In her previous life, she had been the CEO of such a huge business empire, with a serious face and a powerful presence that could intimidate anyone.
