Chapter 907: Lele is Full of Surprises
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Li didn’t intend to pick on Sun Wei, but it seemed like some people just wouldn’t stop until they hit a sore spot, and he recognized Sun Wei as that type of person.
From the chatter among his classmates, Su Li had concluded that Mrs. Sun probably wouldn’t come to pick up Sun Wei herself. Even if she did, Su Li wouldn’t hold it against him; in fact, he would congratulate Sun Wei for receiving his mother’s acknowledgment. That was something to be happy about.
Sun Wei had originally wanted to humiliate Su Li but ended up embarrassing himself instead. His bravado had vanished, and he left with a cold remark, “Su Li, don’t get too cocky!”
Su Li shrugged, feeling somewhat helpless. He wasn’t being cocky; he was just excited that his mom had come to pick him up. If it weren’t for Sun Wei’s relentless teasing, he wouldn’t have felt the need to defend himself at all!
Meanwhile, Gu Zi was skillfully steering the car, smoothly turning as they left the school. The Su family car glided away, and the other kids watched with envy as they were ushered into their own private vehicles, lingering in awe of the Su family’s departure.
They couldn’t help but admire the Su brothers. Had they somehow saved the galaxy in a past life? With such an amazing mom, both beautiful and capable, it seemed like they were living a charmed life. Rumor had it that the dishes Su Li’s mom prepared for gatherings were absolutely delicious. It made them salivate just at the thought.
Upon arriving home, Gu Zi dropped Gao Ming off and went to pick up Lele. Just as she stepped into the living room, she heard the television playing. To her surprise, it was an animated show in a foreign language.
Walking further in, she found Lele standing in front of the TV, her little face flushed with excitement as she intently watched the screen.
When Grandma Gao saw Gu Zi, she smiled and said, “Lele has been really good today. She’s been quietly watching TV without making a fuss. I thought about changing the channel since it’s in a foreign language, but she didn’t want to. The little girl is so obedient! Even if she doesn’t understand, she’s been glued to the screen for so long. Look at her; it’s almost as if she understands everything!”
Gu Zi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but decided against it. Maybe Lele really could understand some of it. That little girl was full of surprises! She chose not to tell Grandma Gao that Lele could comprehend foreign languages.
Walking over to pull Lele into a hug, Lele beamed, wrapping her little arms around Gu Zi’s neck. “Mommy, you came to pick me up! We’re going home now! Bye-bye, Grandma Gao! Lele will come back to play with you next time!”
After saying her goodbyes, Gu Zi took Lele’s hand as they headed home. Once outside, Gu Zi asked, “Tell Mommy, what did you do today?”
Lele shook her head and then began to sing in her sweet, enchanting voice. “Mommy, do you know the Smurfs? Beyond the mountains and the sea, there’s a Smurf. They are lively and clever…”
Gu Zi couldn’t help but laugh, and compared to her daughter’s brilliance, she had long accepted her own status as an ordinary person. She didn’t hold back her praise, exclaiming, “Lele can sing now, and in a foreign language too! Amazing, simply amazing!”
Lele proudly gave herself a thumbs-up and declared, “Lele is amazing, and Mommy is amazing too! Mommy is Lele’s mommy, so Mommy is even more amazing!”
With that, she pointed her thumb at Gu Zi, filling the room with a wave of emotional warmth.
Gu Zi scooped her up, and they played with toys on the sofa for a while before letting Lele join her brothers. Gu Zi then headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Today, Su Shen was incredibly busy, tied up with important matters that couldn’t wait. He hadn’t been home to play the role of a stay-at-home dad or to cook for their little girl.
Even if he wanted to help, Gu Zi wouldn’t let him. After all, if he didn’t earn money to support the family, how could she maintain her beauty? She had told Su Shen, “On the day of my exam, you take care of Lele and make dinner. Just focus on your work today; I’ll handle everything at home!”
With that, Su Shen had left the house reassured. Gu Zi needed to use the car, and he hadn’t ridden his motorcycle in a while, so he put on his riding jacket. The sight of him in that jacket made Gu Zi feel a little dizzy with admiration. He looked so handsome—truly exceptional. That was her man.
Fast forward to the exam day, and Su Shen woke up early to make breakfast, all so Gu Zi could eat well before her test and perform at her best. After they finished breakfast, Su Shen drove Gu Zi to the school.
Upon arriving at the school gate, Gu Zi didn’t let Su Shen get out of the car. She opened the door herself and headed inside, where the students gathered, waiting for the invigilating teacher to lead them to the exam room.
The supervising teacher was the school’s director of moral education. When she saw Gu Zi stepping out of the luxury car, a sneer crept onto her lips. ‘These young girls nowadays have no shame,’ she thought disdainfully.
