Chapter 165 Seize the Opportunity Properly When he was about to get off work at night, Lucas received a call from her mother.
âWhatâs the matter?â âCome to the mansion for dinner tonight. Your father and I havenât had dinner with you for a long time.â
Peiyingâs gentle voice came from the phone. It was not easy for Lucas to refuse, so he nodded and agreed. When he arrived, dinner was not ready yet, so he sat on the sofa in the living room with the two elders. During this time, Peiying took out an invitation letter and handed it over. She explained, âIt will be your Auntie Smithâs birthday banquet in a few days. She asked Chase to send two invitation letters and invited you to go with her.â Looking at the exquisite invitation letter in front of him, Lucas frowned. It was obvious that he did not want to accept it. However, she was an elder after all. It was not good for him not to celebrate her birthday, so he nodded and agreed. Peiying saw this and smiled with satisfaction. During this time, she took the time to go to the side and called Chase Smith. Because she knew that Chase Smith was still waiting for her news. Just as the call connected, she heard Chase Smithâs nervous voice from the phone. âAuntie Edwards, has Lucas agreed to attend the birthday banquet?â âHe has already agreed.â Peiying responded with a smile. Hearing this news, Chase Smith was very happy.
She clenched her fists and swore in her heart that she must seize the opportunity this time! After dinner, Lucas did not want to stay and be a third wheel. He took the initiative to leave. However, he did not go back immediately. Instead, he went to Emilyâs house. Looking at the handsome man outside the door, Emily was very surprised. âMr. Greens, why are you here so late? Are you feeling unwell?â The reason why she asked this was because Emily only thought of this possibility. Unexpectedly, Lucas shook his head and said in a low and magnetic voice, âIâm not feeling unwell. I just came over to ask if I need treatment this weekend. I have a social event that I canât turn down.â
âThen you can go, but donât drink.â It must be an important event then. Emily could only agree to let him go. Lucas nodded.
Then, the two of them stood at the door, speechless.
Logically speaking, Emily should have invited Lucas into the room to sit, but because they were discussing proper business, she had forgotten about this. Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, the two little ones heard that Lucas had come and ran out of the room one after another. âLucas, why are you here?â Sofia ran to Lucas with a face full of joy, her eyes flashing with a bright light. Seeing her, Lucas became more very gentle. âLucas has something to talk to your mommy about.â âHave you finished talking?â Ethan hurriedly asked. âIâm done. Whatâs the matter?â Lucas nodded. âItâs nothing. Do you plan to go back right away?â The little fellow continued to ask. This time, before Lucas could answer, Sofia, who was next to him, held his hand and began to act like a spoiled child. âI donât want Lucas to go. Since Lucas is here, then letâs go in and have a chat. Sofia misses Lucas.â Seeing his sisterâs actions, Ethan also nodded and echoed. He looked at Lucas, his eyes full of anticipation. âLucas, Iâve been learning math recently. I find it very interesting, but there is something I donât understand. Can you please teach us?â
Hearing this, and looking at the two little ones who were looking forward to it, Lucas was unable to harden his heart and refuse, so he simply nodded in agreement. âAlright then.â After he finished speaking, he looked towards Emily and smiled faintly. âLooks like Iâll have to disturb you for a while.â
As soon as he finished speaking, he was dragged into the room by the two little ones, leaving Emily standing where she was and raising her eyebrows, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
There was no other reason. These two children of hers had indeed started learning math recently, but there was nothing that they didnât know!
It was obvious that these two little ones were saying this on purpose, wanting to stay for a while longer with Lucas.
Lucas did not know about this. He followed the two little ones to the study room and saw the math textbook on the table.
Although it was only at the beginner level, for the two little ones, it was still a bit early to learn this.
Thinking of this, he was once again surprised by the intelligence of the two little ones. At the same time, he asked, âIs there anything you donât understand?â The two little ones looked at each other and then pointed to a question. âLucas, I donât know much about this.â âI donât understand this question either.â Lucas glanced at the questions they were talking about and did not think too much about it. He began to take a pen and began to explain in the simplest way. He was very patient.
The two little ones listened with great interest, and the intelligence they showed was also very scary.
Basically, Lucas only needed to explain everything once.
Of course, the two little ones admired Lucas more. Sofia looked over with starry eyes and praised, âLucas, you are so awesome.
The steps you said are very simple. I understand it in a moment.â âI also understand it now.â Ethan expressed, unwilling to fall behind. Emily, who had just come over to deliver the fruit, heard this and could not help but raise her eyebrows and tease, âWhat, are the things that Mommy said before very complicated?â Hearing this, the two little ones stuck out their tongues playfully. âNo, no. Mommyâs words are easy to understand too.â âYes, theyâre very easy to understand.â The two little ones smiled and tried to muddle through. When Lucas heard this, he realized that the children knew how to solve the problem all along. It was clearly an excuse to ask him to stay a little longer.
