At Platinum Palace.
The servant carefully knocked on the door of the study room. "Master, someone came from the old master's side. They said that they're here to pick Little Master up to go over for a meal."
Lisa peered up from his documents. "Ask Little Master to come here for a while."
"Okay, Master," the servant answered and went out.
A while later, Leo entered the study room.
Lisa stood up from his chair before his desk, then he sat on the sofa in the room. He said to his son, "Come sit here."
The little bun walked over and sat down as he hugged a furry bunny in his arms.
This bunny was the one he had saved the last time they had gone for a picnic with Mommy. After the bunny's leg had healed, Jennie brought Leo to try letting the bunny go, but unexpectedly, it only wanted to follow Leo and not go anywhere else. Furthermore, Leo hated to part with it too, so he had just brought it back and kept it as a pet.
Now, the bunny had become as fat and round as a ball. In the little bun's arms, it looked just like a round, little white dumpling.
Lisa told his son, "Grandfather and Grandmother want to bring you back for dinner. Of course, apart from the meal, there'll be something else..."
The little bun stroked the bunny in his arms with single-hearted devotion without even looking up.
Lisa then said, "It's related to your mother."
The little bun instantly glanced up and stared at Lisa. Even the bunny in his arms had perked up its ears.
Lisa did not know whether to laugh or cry as he sighed and continued, "Your grandfather and grandmother are preparing to put me up to a blind date."
The little bun immediately understood his father's meaning. He then pursed his lips. Moments later, there was a determination in his eyes as he said, "I will protect Mommy well!"
No one can replace Mommy!
Lisa nodded, satisfied. "Try to drag as much time as possible. I'll deal with the rest."
The little bun nodded.
...
After the father and son finished their chat, Leo then followed the people who had come to fetch him to the old residence.
"Grandfather, Grandmother!"
The elders had long been sitting in the living room and waiting. When they saw their dearest grandson had arrived, the two elders instantly beamed with happiness. The gloomy clouds in the past few days instantly vanished.
"Leo is here! Grandmother missed you so much! Quickly come here and give Grandmother a hug!"
The little bun obediently ambled over and hugged his grandmother.
She was so overjoyed that her heart melted and her face showed that all was well with her grandchild.
"Quickly come over for dinner. Don't starve Leo!" Father Manoban said as he urged for the kitchen to start serving.
On the dining table was all of Leo's favorite dishes. Leo's bowl had turned into a tiny mountain as the elders kept spooning food.
As the two elders looked at their obedient, sensible, and bright grandson, their eyes were filled with affection.
Father Manoban cleared his throat. He had to disrupt the mood, so he looked at his wife to remind her of something.
She frowned before she probed, "Leo, what kind of woman would you like to be your mother?"
Leo pretended to contemplate her question seriously. The elders watched him nervously.
"A girl like my Mommy," answered Leo.
They were speechless.
Without a doubt, Leo's "Mommy" was definitely referring to Jennie.
Mother Manoban helplessly cleared her throat. She resumed, "Baby, your Aunty Jennie is indeed a very excellent woman but... Actually, there are even more excellent ladies! You're just too young, so you've never seen them... If there's a woman you like even more, would you be willing to let them be your mother?"
The little bun blinked. "Then, I'll have to see them before I know."
When they heard this, they were instantly thrilled. They did not expect things to go this smoothly.
Father Manoban immediately said, "Then, Grandfather and Grandmother will arrange for it. Later on, we'll let you choose yourself, okay?"
The little bun nodded. "Okay."
