I Want to Give Pocket Money Too

When Song Yujin heard Song Ci’s words, he shook his head gently and took out his own grass-woven puppy that Lu Gan had taught him to weave. “I have my own.”

He looked at Song Ci’s grass-woven puppy, and after comparing it, he realized. “Yours is bigger.”

Lu Suo quickly took out his grass-woven puppy to compare before saying in surprise, “Mine is the smallest.”

He smiled and turned to look at Lu Gan. “Dad, do you make it according to size? Sister’s is the biggest, and mine is the smallest.”

“Little Suo, you’re so smart,” Lu Gan said as he tapped his nose.

Lu Suo happily waved the grass-woven puppy in his hand, and his eyes curved into crescents as he smiled.

While they talked, the crew had packed up their things. The few followed the rest of the group down the mountain, got into the nanny van, and returned to the farmhouse.

The night view of the countryside was always much quieter than the city, especially the starry sky. There were no high-rise buildings to block the sky full of stars.

Lu Suo looked up at the stars in the sky and said curiously, “There are so many stars…”

“That’s right.” Song Ci took a look as well.

Lu Suo cupped his little face in his hands and looked up. He recalled the day that he, his parents, and Lu Gan had gotten into a car accident. They wanted to go camping that day and even said they would watch the stars together at night. In the end, they did not see anything.

Now, he was seeing them with his uncle and aunt. He really hoped that his parents could see it too. Lu Suo’s heart was a little heavy. He turned to look at Lu Gan, opened his arms, and asked for a hug.

Lu Gan picked Lu Suo up and lowered his head to ask Song Yujin, “Yujin, do you want daddy to carry you?”

Song Yujin shook his head. “I want to walk by myself.” He held Song Ci’s hand and the grass-woven puppy in the other as it swayed with his steps.

Lu Gan looked on and smiled silently. He hugged Lu Suo with one hand and stretched out his other to hold Song Ci’s hand. Their fingers intertwined, and Song Ci held Song Yujin’s hand with the other hand.

While the rooms in the farmhouse were allocated by the staff, they had asked Song Ci for her opinion before assigning their rooms. Song Ci’s intention was for the four of them to stay together so that it would be more convenient for them to take care of the children. It was a good enough reason, and the staff did not hesitate to give them the largest room.

Lu Suo waited until after a break and dinner before he finally found Lu Gan sneakily. His eyes sparkled as he asked, “Dad, sister said my salary would be sent to you. Did you receive it?”

“Yes, I did.” Lu Gan nodded. He was still amazed by the fact that the production team had actually paid Lu Suo a salary. Song Ci initially said he would be paid, but that had been a lie. She wanted Lu Suo to think that he was the same as Song Yujin so that the two children would not have psychological differences due to dissimilar treatment.

However, the next day, Song Ci told him that Director Chen really was going to arrange an official role for Lu Suo, all for the sake of his face. Lu Gan was shocked when he found out. Had his little nephew’s looks already become so dazzling?

Lu Gan scrutinized his nephew’s handsome and adorable face. He was indeed handsome. With a slight smile, he looked like a little angel. Now, he had used his face to get an effective role and even got paid. It really felt like a fantasy, no matter how he thought about it.

“You’re really quite amazing.” Lu Gan could not help but sigh.

Lu Suo thought that Lu Gan was praising him for making money. He tilted his head proudly and said, “I know.”

“We’re only halfway through. The other half of the salary will only arrive once filming is over. I’ll use this money to buy you the toy you want, okay?” Lu Gan pinched his face. It felt good to the touch, so he pinched it again.

Lu Suo shook his head and said with a smile, “I don’t want a toy.”

“Then what do you want?”

“I’m going to give you pocket money. That way, you’ll have two sets of pocket money, and you can buy a toy you want,” Lu Suo said.

Lu Gan could not believe his ears. He smiled and looked at him in surprise. “You’re going to give me pocket money too?”

Lu Suo nodded seriously. “As I’m still young, I’ll give you these for now. When I grow up and earn more money, I’ll give you more pocket money, just like how you give me pocket money.”

Lu Gan was touched. He looked at the child in front of him before hugging Lu Suo tightly in his arms. He lowered his head and kissed his forehead.
