A Magic Trick

Lu Gan was clearly upset, so Song Ci did her best to comfort him.

‘I can celebrate his recovery later.’

Lu Gan hugged Song Ci tightly. He wanted to tell her everything that had happened and all his secrets.

‘I just don’t want her to worry or be in danger.’

!!

All this time, Lu Gan felt guilty for hiding things from Song Ci. What if she became angry? He organized his words and prepared himself.

Suddenly, the door opened slowly.

Lu Gan turned his head around and saw Lu Suo peeking in.

‘His timing is impeccable…’

Lu Gan stared at Lu Suo. The latter said excitedly, “Daddy, you’re awake!”

“Yes.”

Lu Suo wanted to hug Lu Gan. He took a step forward but realized something was wrong.

Song Ci was sitting on Lu Gan’s lap.

‘They’re so… sticky…’

Lu Suo smiled.

“I just came here to see you. I’ll leave now.”

After saying that, he quickly retreated and closed the door.

‘This isn’t good. I’ve interrupted them.’

Lu Suo scratched his face and left.

When Song Yujin heard that Lu Gan was awake, he heaved a sigh of relief. This was the first time he saw someone sleep for such a long time. Naturally, he became worried.

Lu Suo’s interruption made Lu Gan realize that his two sons were still worried about him.

‘I’ve not even seen Yujin yet.’

Lu Gan decided to have a meal with the children first.

‘I’ll explain everything to Song Ci later.’

On the other hand, Song Ci was amused by Lu Suo’s mischief. She could not help but laugh.

“Little Suo is so cute.”

Lu Gan nodded.

“I don’t know who taught him such things.”

“Wasn’t it you?”

“Of course not.”

Lu Gan thought about this matter seriously and said in a deep voice, “Little Suo probably watched too much TV. I’ll have to restrict him in the future. He likes to watch those night dramas…”

Song Ci was speechless. Her heart ached for Lu Suo.

It was past dinner time, so Lu Gan had supper with the children.

Obviously, Lu Suo was elated.

Meanwhile, Song Yujin observed Lu Gan carefully.

‘He doesn’t seem any different from before. That’s great.’

Lu Gan leaned back against his chair and said, “Before we eat, I want to perform a magic trick.”

Lu Suo was surprised.

“Daddy, you know how to perform magic tricks?”

“Yes. Close your eyes.”

Lu Suo closed his eyes obediently. He even covered them with his hands.

“Done!”

Lu Gan turned to look at Song Yujin.

‘Fine… I’ll cooperate…’

After both children closed their eyes, Lu Gan stood up confidently.

“Open your eyes now.”
