CHAPTER 489: CHAPTER 489: LET ME GO

"Don’t, don’t arrest me, I’m sorry, I was wrong, please let me go!" Lu Xiangxiang was really panicking, tears came instantly, and then she hurriedly looked at Xu Xiuxiu, "Xu Xiuxiu, save me, please save me..."

Lu Xiangxiang was sobbing pitifully, but at this moment, facing Lu Xiangxiang’s plea for help, Xu Xiuxiu just snorted coldly from her nose. After experiencing her duplicity and heartlessness, Xu Xiuxiu even doubted whether Lu Xiangxiang was genuinely scared at this moment; she hadn’t seemed that pitiful when she had set her up. Yet now, she was desperately begging her; only a fool would tolerate her over and over again. Thinking this, Xu Xiuxiu smiled coldly after snorting and said to the several police officers, "Well, you gentlemen have your hands full today. Take your time leaving."

"Okay, sorry for the disturbance!" The old police officer nodded, then gestured for the young police officer who was holding Lu Xiangxiang to take her away.

"Don’t, please don’t arrest me." Lu Xiangxiang struggled and resisted.

But the young police officer didn’t plan to go easy on her, and held her tightly regardless of Lu Xiangxiang’s struggles, leading her away with assertiveness.

Seeing Lu Xiangxiang being truly taken away, Xu Xiuxiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door to her house, then walked to the balcony door. Watching a row of dogs seriously gnawing on bones, she felt especially complicated.

"Little Huang, thank you for today." Xu Xiuxiu expressed her gratitude while also preparing some Space Water for the dogs to drink. Xu Xiuxiu was quite clear about the benefits of Space Water for the Little Huang Family, and because of the Space Water and pink fruits, the Little Huang Family was extraordinarily intelligent and human-like. Xu Xiuxiu didn’t want to be too special, as being too special would make many things too conspicuous. She had already exposed her unusualness several times, but Song Yuanhuan, being as astute as he was, always seemed indifferent when it came to her, and should know her uniqueness over the years of being together, yet he never asked.

Of course, she always reminded herself to be careful not to reveal too much, but today, thanks to the Little Huang Family, she had a narrow escape, and felt that she must reward the heroes; otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to convince herself.

"Woof!" Little Huang barked cleverly at Xu Xiuxiu, then watched as Xu Xiuxiu took out a pink fruit, and with its tongue, rolled it in front of Little White, who was born to Little White and was often unwell. Little Huang must have known the pink fruit was valuable to give it up.

"Little Huang, you are really good to your grandchild." Xu Xiuxiu said, slightly touched, as she stroked Little Huang’s head again.

"Woof!" Little Huang looked up when Xu Xiuxiu called, his eyes full of sincerity, as if to say, "Shouldn’t I be good to my own family?"

"I will also be very good to them in the future," Xu Xiuxiu said, reaching out to scratch Little Huang’s head, as if making a promise.

Little Huang turned his head upon hearing that and glanced at the group of children beside him, then turned to look at Xu Xiuxiu with an expression of entrusting his future, and finally sincerely and confidently nodded.

Because of Lu Xiangxiang, it was quite late in the afternoon before Xu Xiuxiu realized that she needed to stew pig’s feet for the children. However, by the time all the children returned from school, the pig’s feet were almost ready and tasted quite good, so much so that the delicious smell wafted for miles.

"Wow! Pig’s feet, pig’s feet, I smell the delicious pig’s feet, this is great, Auntie, I really love you so much. If it weren’t for my parents’ unwillingness, I would want to be your own son," Shi Yu also loved the pig’s feet Xu Xiuxiu stewed incredibly. He and Song Chengguang had returned home with the boy and girl twins from school, and as soon as they opened the entryway door and smelled the pig’s feet, his drool couldn’t help but leak out.

"No, no, Brother Shi Yu, you can’t be my mom’s son." The one who spoke out with a frown and refusal was Little Moon. The little guy already felt that he had to share his mom’s love with his sister, his brother, and his dad at home, considering that Brother Shi Yu was not her biological son but living together had already diverted some of mom’s attention. Just this was enough to bother him a lot, let alone if Shi Yu also became mom’s son, then he would have even less say at home. Thinking about it, the little guy felt he must prevent this from happening.

"Little Moon, don’t treat Brother Shi Yu like this! Don’t you see how pitiful Brother Shi Yu is? Having parents for him is like having none..." Shi Yu, with an injured expression, complained to Little Moon as he threw down his schoolbag and ran to the washroom to wash his hands, then swiftly entered the kitchen.

Because he spoke noticeably late, by the time Little Moon saw Shi Yu had already dashed into the kitchen, he felt somewhat jealous, this super glutton.

"Hmph!" The delicate and fair little boy snorted, then grumpily put down his schoolbag to go wash his hands too.

"Auntie, can you let us taste it first? I’m so hungry!" Shi Yu stared at the small pot emitting a delicious smell, with an expression of not having eaten good food in thousands of years.

"Shi Yu, if your mom sees you like this, she’d think I mistreat you every day, not letting you eat your fill or have any meat to eat!" Xu Xiuxiu joked as she reached out to poke Shi Yu’s smooth head. He and Chengguang had really grown from little rascals to half-grown youths. On them, Xu Xiuxiu distinctly felt time passing by, recalling how they started as such naughty little kids and were now already in fourth or fifth grade.

"Everyone in the world might starve me, but only Auntie, you could never starve me." Shi Yu flattered solicitously. Though it was nice sounding, it indeed was the truth.

Xu Xiuxiu was a person who paid great attention to lifestyle, and coupled with her cleanliness habits and mild OCD, she usually took care of the children’s three meals a day. Naturally, she had always spent ample time on food, which meant she really had never let Shi Yu go hungry. It wasn’t for nothing that this child, every time during summer and winter holidays, would not say he missed his parents back home but would cling desperately to Xu Xiuxiu’s arm, unwilling to go back.

Because going back meant eating unpleasant fast food with his mother Yuan Shixiang or following Shi Yan Ting to eat cafeteria food in the military academy. In any case, the treatment went from little young master to almost a neglected servant, and when his parents got occasionally busy, they could even forget about him completely. Meals had always been something he had to figure out for himself.

"Auntie, you are the kindest, most beautiful, most virtuous, absolutely the best auntie in the world." For a bite to eat, Shi Yu continued shamelessly flattering, sparing no effort in praising Xu Xiuxiu.
