Chapter 1348: Chapter 1347 A Happy Family of Three

Bai Lan saw her son rolling his eyes at her, but he seemed helpless, which she found quite amusing.

Yet, she just wanted to tease him a bit. The kid was only in his teens, yet he already bore the demeanor of an old man.

Always acting like a little geezer, not at all like the adorable child he used to be.

“Babe, Mommy is just thinking of your best interest. It’s so boring at home. Alright, it’s settled then, we’ll leave around 11 tomorrow.” Seeing that he wasn’t speaking up, Bai Lan decided to be decisive.

Zhou Yanlin felt rather speechless. He had actually planned to play basketball with friends this weekend, but it seemed he’d have to reschedule now.

“Fine, but I’ll just go for a bit and then leave. I have other things to do,” Zhou Yanlin stated, not wanting his mother to have her way.

Once it happened, it would certainly happen a second time, and it would only get worse in the future.

“Where are you going?” Bai Lan asked casually.

Zhou Yanlin remained silent.

“Son, you’re not in a relationship already, are you?” Bai Lan asked in shock, and then muttered to herself, “Actually, 15 isn’t too young. It’s about time, I guess.”

Zhou Yanlin replied, slightly annoyed, “Mom, what are you thinking?”

“Hehe, no worries. I’m just kidding. Alright, I won’t bother you anymore. Your dad will be home soon too,” Bai Lan said.

Zhou Yanlin got along better with Zhou Shengting, maybe because birds of a feather flock together. Both were usually cold and not particularly talkative.

“Yeah, Mom, actually, if you’re bored, I wouldn’t mind having a little sister,” Zhou Yanlin joked for once.

“Hmph, I would love to, but your dad disagrees,” Bai Lan said, feeling wronged.

“Do you still need to listen to Dad’s opinion?” Isn’t she the boss at home?

Whatever decision she made, they–father and son–had to comply.

“Hmph. Your dad says my health isn’t good, and he’s always against this idea,” Bai Lan replied helplessly.

Zhou Yanlin paused for a moment, then said, “Mom, just don’t think about this anymore.”

“Stinky kid, always teasing me,” Bai Lan chuckled as she patted his shoulder before leaving.

As Zhou Yanlin watched Bai Lan leave, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly. So that was the situation.

In the evening, Zhou Shengting returned from the company and was very happy to see Zhou Yanlin.

He had a great relationship with his son.

During dinner, Bai Lan kept adding food to her son’s bowl, making Zhou Shengting a bit jealous.

Whenever the son was home, Bai Lan seemed not to spare him a glance.

So, he pretended to cough lightly and then asked, “Yan Lin, do you have plans for tomorrow?”

“Oh, right. Since you’re free anyway, come with me to Shu Pan’s house tomorrow. It’s Xiaobao’s birthday,” Bai Lan suddenly remembered and then addressed Zhou Shengting.

Zhou Shengting looked at her with a somewhat disdainful gaze, “I’m not going. I don’t even know them.”

“But if you go, you’ll get to know them, right? Haven’t you always wanted to meet Gu Shaoting? This is an excellent opportunity. His son’s having a birthday, and tomorrow’s the weekend, so he’ll definitely be at home,” Bai Lan pointed out, knowing exactly what he was thinking.

After a moment’s consideration, Zhou Shengting thought it made sense, “But Yan Lin is coming back, and I want to spend time with him.”

Yet, Zhou Shengting still refused.

“Yan Lin will come with me tomorrow. You stay home by yourself,” Bai Lan said bluntly.

She was certain that Zhou Shengting would end up joining them.

Zhou Shengting looked at his son in surprise. He had actually agreed?

Meanwhile, Zhou Yanlin could only shrug helplessly.
