Chapter 368
Su Lu, of course, didn’t know any of this. She just brought the child home as usual, gave him a thorough bath, rubbed him with fragrant lotion, and then cuddled up with her son in bed to tell him a story.
To her surprise, Zhao Xiaole didn’t want to hear a bedtime story.
He clutched his "Dou Dou" blanket, gazing at Su Lu with sparkling, eager eyes.
Seeing the intense look in her child’s eyes, Su Lu’s heart skipped a beat and she suddenly had an ominous feeling.
"What’s wrong? Don’t want to hear me read a story? Could it be you want to hear me tell a story?" Su Lu anxiously asked.
Zhao Xiaole had once asked her to tell a story, not to read from a book, but to make one up on the spot.
Su Lu considered herself a straightforward person with a clumsy tongue; she could read from the book, but coming up with something on the fly would pose quite a challenge.
Last time, she had struggled a lot and managed to concoct a story that lacked logic, but somehow she had managed to lull the child to sleep.
So now, the thought of making up a story on the spot made her quite nervous.
Indeed, Zhao Xiaole didn’t want to hear a story; he wanted her to tell one, but not to make it up.
Holding his blanket, he looked up at his mother with those shiny eyes and said, "Mommy, can you tell me the love story between you and Ah Shen?"
