No One Else Will Do But You - Chapter 60

Jiang Mu was firmly opposed to Shu Luo’s driving without a license.

The danger factor was too high.

“Shu Luo, don’t drive carelessly in the future, especially not until you’re an adult.”

The sudden emergency brake just now made him feel frantic.

Jiang Mu called Xiao Fang to drive the car parked on the roadside back, and then drove Shu Luo’s car to the kindergarten.

Shu Luo’s gaze fell out the window: “I was just angry.”

Jiang Mu’s peripheral vision caught sight of the back of Shu Luo’s head. Remembering that the spot had been injured, his heart softened involuntarily.

“I was worried.”

“Worried, yet you still look for other women.”

Jiang Mu smiled: “Or are you jealous? I actually met that woman for the first time. I left my other phone in the office; I was in a meeting earlier. As for what she told you, just ignore it.”

Shu Luo didn’t look at him at all, leaning against the car window and staring outside.

The car suddenly became quiet.

Jiang Mu almost wished he would make more of a fuss; this silence made him truly unsure of what to do.

After they confirmed their relationship, the way they interacted was completely different from before.

Before this, Shu Luo was completely open and boisterous with him, feeling no pressure at all. After getting together, it was definitely different. Even the look in their eyes was different, and physical contact caused different heart palpitations.

Although for Jiang Mu, the way he doted on him was the same both before and now, Shu Luo was just harder to talk to now.

“Brother, you think we can make it, right?” He sounded completely insecure.

Looking at Jiang Mu’s handsome profile, he had already revealed his state of mind.

“We won’t separate.” It wasn’t his style to easily let go of someone he had worked so hard to pursue.

Shu Luo casually wiped his face to wake himself up, and then he smiled.

“I feel like I was being a bit dramatic just now.”

“I like it very much. You can be dramatic often.”

“Heh heh, you can try that.” Then he would make Jiang Mu feel the same way.

Jiang Mu freed one hand to rub Shu Luo’s hair.

The kindergarten was dismissing classes then, and the entrance was full of traffic and waiting parents.

Shu Luo and Jiang Mu’s appearance attracted a lot of attention.

“Brother, a lot of families are staring at me.”

“Mhm, because you’re good-looking.”

Shu Luo listened to Jiang Mu’s smooth-talking mouth and hmphed! He’d start making amends now.

He shouldn’t think a few nice words would suffice.

“Brother!”

Shu Luo was momentarily distracted and didn’t even have time to react when the little kid pounced on him.

The impact almost knocked him over, but fortunately, Jiang Mu supported his waist from behind.

“Shu Yin, you’re looking for trouble!”

Shu Yin pouted, feeling wronged: “I haven’t seen Brother for so long! Why don’t you miss me? Running off abroad for so long, are you going to abandon Yinyin?”

“…” The little boy’s pouting was an absolute killer. Shu Luo died.

“Brother Mu, I miss you too, but since you often come to pick me up, I might miss Brother more.” Then Shu Yin held out his arms for Jiang Mu to carry him.

Jiang Mu picked him up, his posture for holding a child very practiced.

Shu Luo was a little surprised: “Brother, you often come to pick up Yinyin?”

“Mhm, Yinyin didn’t want the housekeeper to pick him up, so I came when I didn’t have classes in the afternoon.”

Shu Yin cheekily stuck out his tongue: “My teacher really likes Brother Mu. She says Brother Mu is so handsome.”

“…” That’s enough. My hand is getting itchy.

Shu Yin was four years old this year, right at the “Ten Thousand Whys” age, and his questions were as boundless as they were inappropriate.

Shu Yin sat in the children’s car seat, restless.

“Brother, did you go abroad to chase girls?”

“Shu Yin, I told you to study hard and not watch so many soap operas.” Look at the questions this little kid is asking.

Shu Yin swung his short legs: “Mom always watches them, and I keep her company so she doesn’t keep saying her sons are grown up and leave the nest.”

Shu Luo: “…”

He didn’t know what to say. How did the world change so much in a single month?

Back home, the housekeeper had already prepared dinner.

Around six o’clock, everyone arrived except for Shu Luo’s father, who was away on a business trip.

“Luo Luo, I heard you went to visit Cambridge? Is that right?” Jiang Qin asked.

Shu Luo was momentarily stunned, then replied: “Yes, that’s right.”

“Why have you lost so much weight? Your complexion looks terrible.”

How could he forget that Jiang Qin’s eyes were very sharp?

“Uh… I wasn’t very used to the climate and environment there.”

Shu Luo’s mother, too, began to scrutinize Shu Luo after hearing Jiang Qin’s comment.

“Luo Luo, are you sure you went abroad to study?”

“Yes, yes, I did. What’s wrong?” Why were everyone’s eyes so sharp tonight?

Jiang Mu spoke up: “Luo Luo is a picky eater.”

Shu Luo: “…”

Li Songping said: “Luo Luo, look at you. You can barely carry me, Grandma, anymore. Tonight, you’re definitely going to wobble.”

Shu Luo: “…”

How could he have forgotten? He picked a day when his father wasn’t around (π_π).

Jiang Mu held Shu Luo’s hand under the table.

Sensing the grip, Shu Luo looked at him with confusion.

Jiang Qin glanced at them, her thoughts unknown: “A Mu, why didn’t you have lunch with Xinlei today? My friend made an effort to have her come all this way.”

“I don’t want to think about that right now. Academics come first.”

Wow, so insincere.

Carlo smiled silently, and Shu Luo smiled silently.

Jiang Qin said regretfully: “Fine, I won’t force you. But that girl is truly lovely.”

“Hey, Qin, Nelsen’s person must be exceptionally outstanding to catch his eye, so don’t worry about it.” Carlo said.

That was well said.

Shu Luo silently agreed.

“A Mu, are you planning to continue your studies?” Jiang Qin asked.

“I’ll see how things go.”

Jiang Qin was accustomed to his mature and independent way of speaking, so she didn’t press further. The child had never needed her to worry much since he was small. The only thing was that he seemed less sunny and vibrant than other boys his age.

But Shu Luo, standing next to him, muttered quietly: “Insincere.”

The sharp-eared Jiang Mu naturally heard it. He reached out and grabbed Shu Luo’s hand, ambiguously tracing his palm.

Shu Luo’s expression immediately crumbled. Isn’t this insincere?

He glared at Jiang Mu and then began eating his food in large bites.

“Cough, cough, cough—”

He unexpectedly choked.

Jiang Mu immediately offered water to his lips, urging him to drink it.

But then, Shu Luo’s face suddenly turned pale.

Jiang Mu’s heart skipped a beat.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Mu asked softly.

Shu Luo flinched, then forced a smile: “It’s nothing, nothing. Hurry and eat. I’m starving.”

He suppressed the rising nausea and quickly gulped down a few mouthfuls of water.

Jiang Mu frowned.

Carlo observed Shu Luo’s expression.

Everyone else assumed he had simply choked and happily continued eating.

Shu Yin, next to him, tugged on Shu Luo’s clothes: “Brother, I need to pee.”

Shu Luo’s mother said impatiently: “Yinyin, you can go by yourself now. Why do you still need your brother?”

Shu Yin pouted, looking unhappy.

“Let’s go, let’s go. Brother will take you.”

Shu Luo took Shu Yin’s hand and walked towards the restroom.

Jiang Mu watched Shu Luo’s poor complexion, feeling worried.

Upon reaching the restroom, Shu Luo told Shu Yin to go inside by himself and leaned against the wall outside. He had felt dizzy after slamming the brakes and hitting the back of his head on the seat earlier that afternoon. He hadn’t paid attention at first, but the dizziness and nausea became noticeable when he choked just now.

“Brother, I want to wash my hands!”

Hearing the little boy’s call from inside, Shu Luo was about to step in, but his vision suddenly went completely black. His knees gave way, and he immediately tumbled to the ground.

“Brother, what are you doing!”

Shu Luo bit his lip, laboriously propped himself up against the wall, took a deep breath, shook his head, and then walked inside.

“What’s the rush?”

Shu Yin pouted: “Brother, were you secretly playing with your phone and didn’t hear me calling?”

“No way, look, do I have a phone in my hand?” Shu Luo pretended to lift his hand innocently.

Shu Yin then asked Shu Luo to lift him up to wash his hands. Shu Luo struggled to perform the action, his arms trembling.

Shu Yin noticed and was about to laugh at his brother, but he suddenly saw his brother reflected in the mirror behind him.

Then, Shu Luo suddenly released his hold, causing his small body to drop to the floor.

Thump—

Shu Yin’s eyes widened. He sat on the floor, not feeling any pain because the sink wasn’t high.

But… why did his brother fall to the ground? Why were his eyes closed?

Shu Yin, terrified, immediately burst into tears.

“Mom, Mom! Brother fell down! Waaah, waaah, waaah—”

Jiang Mu heard the noise and violently spun his head around.
