Ye Zhen was just about to comfort him further when a knocking came from the door. “Zhenzhen, Beichuan, is Zhouzhou with you? He hasn’t drunk his night time cup of milk yet.”
Hearing his grandmother’s voice, Zhouzhou’s tears started streaming down all over again. He sat up in Ye Zhen’s arms and started crying out loud. “Grandma!! Wooooo Oooooh....”
Mother Lu quickly pushed the door open and saw Zhouzhou running toward her with his arms stretched. Mother Lu felt her heart gripped and quickly picked him up.
“What was the matter?”
Zhouzhou put his arms around Mother Lu’s neck, and his tears rolled into the crook of her neck. “Daddy... Daddy just hit me...”
Mother Lu was taken aback a little. “Hit you?”
Zhouzhou, holding onto his own pants, gave her a wronged look. “Daddy spanked me. It hurts...”
Mother Lu pulled down his pants and saw his red bottom. Her heart ached, and she was angry. Giving Lu Beichuan an angry look, she said to him, “Lu Beichuan, why did you spank him? Do you know how old he is?!”
Lu Beichuan frowned but remained calm. “Mom, why don’t you ask him what he had done first?”
“Even so, you should have talked him through instead! He’s only 2 years old. What does he know? Who did you get this corporal punishment crap from?” Mother Lu, being protective of Zhouzhou, asked him gently, “Zhouzhou, tell Grandma what have you done?”
Zhouzhou sniffled and looked at Mother Lu with his teary eyes. Pointing at the desk, he said, “Planes...”
Lu Beichuan said helplessly, “He tore up my documents and made paper planes out of them. I needed to teach him a lesson.”
Mother Lu was taken aback. She looked at the stack of paper planes lying in front of the desk and remained silent for a little while before she said, “Even so, you shouldn’t have hit him. You are an adult and you are strong. He’s so young. What if you have hurt him? How do you call yourself a father?”
“Alright, alright. Zhouzhou is a good boy. You can stop crying now. You sleep with Grandma tonight. Grandma has lots of paper planes in her room. Let’s go play with them. We will ignore your daddy.”
Having said that, Mother Lu gave Lu Beichuan a stare and brought Zhouzhou with her as she walked out of the room.
Lu Beichuan bent over and picked up the paper planes as Ye Zhen asked in worry, “Is everything alright?”
“Yeah, it’s fine. I’ll have my assistant prepare another set tomorrow when I get into the office.”
Ye Zhen felt a little bit down as well. It was partially her fault in this. “I’m sorry. I should have kept a better eye out on Zhouzhou today.”
Lu Beichuan said in a low voice, “It’s partially my fault as well. I shouldn’t have left the documents here. That and Zhouzhou, I haven’t been doing a very good job at educating him.”
He chuckled softly. “Alright, let’s stop blaming ourselves now. Mom’s right. Zhouzhou is still young. We will be better able to reason with him as he gets older. We just need to be more mindful during his naughty years.”
“Then why did you spank him?” Ye Zhen still felt awful about that. “Never mind. What was done was done. A lesson can’t hurt him. It will serve as a better reminder. Luckily it wasn’t anything too important. I’d have to teach him a lesson otherwise!”
“You will be able to get yourself to do that?”
Ye Zhen gave in. “Better you take care of that. I give in too easily when he is being coquettish.”
“Zhouzhou will be turning 3 in 2 months. We will find a kindergarten for him to attend then.”
Ye Zhen pondered a little. “Mom had mentioned this before as well. She feels that Zhouzhou is still young and worries that he will be bullied in kindergarten. She asked whether we should hold that off for another year.”
“Bullied?” Lu Beichuan chuckled. “Do you really think your son will be bullied?”
Ye Zhen thought about it some. The little kiddo has lots of crazy ideas all the time. There was no saying who would be the bullied one when he went to school.
“Alright. Let’s wait to see your son rule kindergarten.”
