Ch.88 A Vicious Mother (4)

Lu Ting released her and took a pair of running shoes from her shoe closet and brought them over to her. The man crouched down in front of the sofa and held her heel in the palm of his hand so he could tuck her feet into the shoes with his other hand.

While putting the shoes on her, Lu Ting said, “Exercising produces dopamine, and dopamine makes you happy and regulates your mood. If that doesn’t make you happy, I’ll find other ways when we’re back. Internet rumors are terrible, but we can’t run at them blindly. First, we have to overcome our anger, then we can resolve the conflict peacefully.”

Watching as the man tied her shoelaces into a pretty ribbon, Lin Yueqi’s maiden heart actually stirred a bit.

Wow, aren’t this guy’s shoelace ribbons too pretty?

Lin Yueqi finally understood that Lu Ting had a rather “monk-like” character. He was always very philosophical.

He seemed to have said similar things to her in her dream, but unfortunately, she didn’t know how to accept them in her dreams, and only blamed him for not understanding her, and even suspecting him of having a thing for Qin Xue.

The scene of Lu Ting taking the initiative to help her put on her shoes caused the scenes of Lu Ting comforting her in her dreams and her unreasonable “fights” with him to become clearer and clearer. Even the details were completely filled in. Actually, from the standpoint of a bystander, she was indeed a bit unreasonable in her dreams.

And this shows how important a good mindset was.

Lu Ting was tying the laces of her second shoe when she suddenly asked, “Uh…Old Lu…?”

“Yeah?”

“Can I hit her?”

“Huh?” Lu Ting felt like he had misheard her sudden words. This tone almost sounded like a high school student asking her parents meekly if it was okay for her to hit someone else.

It was a bit embarrassing to say, but Lin Yueqi had always grown up with her tail between her legs. She never dared to provoke the school bullies or the like! She had also been bullied many times and wanted to punch the other person, but she was always afraid of having her parents called and embarrassing her aunt.

So, being bullied since she was a child till now, she was always the type to swallow down her broken teeth.

But this time, she can’t endure it any longer.

Her arms were already getting impatient and her fists were ready for a beating. She really wanted to give Qin Xue a good slap across the face.

Lu Ting’s hands suddenly stopped. He looked at her before lowering his head again to tie her shoelaces. “If you want to hit someone, you have to find a way to make it so the responsibility doesn’t fall to your hands.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yueqi rubbed the top of Lu Ting’s head excitedly, messing it up his neat hair.

Lu Ting, “…”

Lin Yueqi continued to rub, “Ahhh, Old Lu, it’d be great if you were my dad! Then I would’ve had the guts to beat back all those bullies in school! Old Lu, we really met each other too late!”

Lu Ting looked at her with a blank expression, “…” But he still could not say the words in his heart.

They were completely unaware that Tuantuan had come out of her room a few minutes earlier and went to get herself a drink from the kitchen.

Then, the chubby little girl stood behind the coffee table with a glass of water, drinking while staring expressionlessly at her parents.
