Lina giggled and playfully tugged at his ear. “Doraemon doesn’t seem to have ears, though?”
“I’m different.” Zuko’s eyes were smiling. “I’m Lina’s exclusive Doraemon, the only one in the world!
That’s why I have ears.”
“What do you need ears for?”
Zuko leaned closer, his nose nuzzling her small face, his voice husky. “To… obey your every
command!”
Lina’s heart warmed, and she hugged him. With him by her side, she would no longer be afraid of
anything.
They entered the Thompson residence hand in hand. There seemed to be quite a few people in the
living room.
Before Zuko could even see who was there, he heard Toph’s enthusiastic voice booming. “Hey, bro!”
Zuko paused. “You’re here as well?”

Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda?”
Toph was still the carefree young man he used to be. Their argument at the horse ranch seemed to have been
quickly forgotten.
Zuko felt relief and concern for his younger brother’s nature. He felt relieved as carefree individuals often enjoyed
better sleep by swiftly letting go of worries, which promoted good health and longevity. However, his worry
stemmed from…
Zuko glanced at the sofa. Sure enough, his concern had come to pass. Toph had completely ignored their advice.
Sitting on the sofa were not only Renee but also Kaitlyn.
Zuko furrowed his brow slightly, exchanging a puzzled glance with Lina. They held an unspoken question in their
eyes.
“Mr. Zuko!” Kaitlyn greeted him politely with a gentle smile.
Zuko nodded slightly and sat on the opposite sofa with Lina.
Nicholas served his daughter and son-in-law the best tea.
Lina looked at him. “Dad, I want to talk to you about something.”
“Sure, go ahead.”
“Dad…” Lina hesitated.
“Is it something related to work?” Kaitlyn suddenly interjected. “The recent incident has caused quite a stir. Is it
about the Thompson Group’s project?”
Zuko chuckled softly. “Aunt Kaitlyn, you’re quite well-informed.”
“Of course!” Toph chimed in. “Aunt Kaitlyn’s keeping up with the times! Besides, Renee will return to work in the
future, so Aunt Kaitlyn naturally needs to pay more attention to the news in this field.”
“Is the situation very serious?” Kaitlyn looked worriedly at Lina. “I only know that the project has been plagiarized,
but we currently don’t have any evidence. So… is there no way to sue the other party?”
“Yes.” Lina nodded. “Aunt Kaitlyn, you don’t need to worry about it. I will handle it.”
“Oh.” Kaitlyn looked a bit embarrassed, lowering her head and nodding. “Have I been too
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmeddlesome? Did I make you unhappy because of it?”
“Aunt Kaitlyn…”
“If I’ve made you unhappy, then I won’t say anything.”
Kaitlyn shifted slightly to the side as if trying to isolate herself from the rest of the group. Her
cautious demeanor made people feel a bit sorry for her.
Lina thought she might have come across as too indifferent just now, so she quickly explained, “Aunt
Kaitlyn, I didn’t mean that at all! Please don’t misunderstand.”
“It’s okay. It’s okay!” Kaitlyn looked up at her and smiled softly. “We’re family, after all. I heard
there’s been an issue with the Thompson Group, so Renee and I are also worried.”
Zuko gently squeezed Lina’s hand. Perhaps he was the only one in this room who could maintain a
calm mind.
Zuko smiled slightly. “Aunt Kaitlyn, please don’t misunderstand Lina. In fact, the two of us lack
experience in this area. We would actually appreciate hearing the opinions of our elders.”
“Is that so?”
