Amused, Shen Jiuli answered with a smile, "The one who creates the order certainly has to follow and carry out the laws as well. As the saying goes, all are equal before the law. He cannot simply place himself above the heavenly law. Otherwise, who would follow the order that he has made?"
The logic seemed to make sense.
Ning Xuemo decided to leave this topic of conversation behind, so she turned to her son instead and said, "All right, let's not talk about this anymore. Nianmo, where else do you want to go? Father and mother will go with you."
Shen Nianmo looked at his parents doubtfully. "Mother, both of you have been acting weird lately. You have been with me almost every day. I have met many of your friends, too." His parents' sudden change of attitude worried him, for they had been extremely kind to him lately.
Shen Jiuli threw his son a look. "Why? Isn't it a good thing?"
"No, it is just that… It feels a little weird."
