"Click~"
With a slight sound from the door, the master bedroom door slowly opened...
"Dad, Mom..."
Yang Yuxi, dressed in her sports outfit, ca out of her room, her face brimming with youthful vitality as she walked and called out brightly to Yang Deyi and Shu iling.
Hearing her voice, Shu iling instinctively cast a glance at Yang Deyi, hinting "Follow my lead later."
Yang Deyi, understanding imdiately, winked back to show he understood.
Seeing them exchanging glances, Yang Yuxi couldn’t help but tease, "What are you two up to? Practicing the ’Eyes Speak Sword, Endless Affection Dagger’ right in front of !"
Shu iling was amused by her words and lightly patted her hand, "You little girl, always making fun of us all day long."
Yang Deyi also laughed, his eyes full of affection, "Xiaoxi, where did you learn all these phrases? ’Eyes Speak Sword, Endless Affection Dagger’, you’re becoming more and more mischievous."
Shu iling continued, "Exactly, with the way you are, it’ll be hard to find a boyfriend, you know."
Yang Yuxi stuck out her little pink tongue, playfully saying, "Oh, Mom, don’t worry about it. I’m still young, no rush. I want to be your forever..."
She deliberately paused for a mont.
"Be our what?" Shu iling asked curiously.
Yang Yuxi coyly hugged Shu iling’s neck and affectionately nuzzled her face, then playfully said, "I want to be your forever caring little jacket!"
Ah!
First round, lost...
Shu iling was rendered half amused and half frustrated by her words, helplessly saying, "You child, there’s no dealing with you."
"Hmph, caring little jacket, huh... If you don’t turn into a black-hearted, leaky little jacket, we’ll count ourselves lucky."
Even though Yang Deyi said this, his heart was bursting with joy.
At least it proved that the "cabbage" they raised wasn’t spoiled...
He cast a glance at his wife aning "See, you’re just overthinking."
Shu iling shot back a look saying "Don’t be happy too soon."
Then, Shu iling decided to change tack and shift the topic, "Xiaoxi, that face mask you let use last ti, do you have any more? I really liked it, but I’ve run out, and I want to get so more from you."
Yang Yuxi, without doubting, responded readily, "Yes! It’s in the second drawer of my dressing room, there are three boxes left, hmm, or... let get it for you!"
Saying this, she intended to get up and retrieve it.
"No need, no need." Shu iling hurriedly waved her hand, pulling her back into her seat, "You sit and chat with your dad, I’ll get it myself."
Finally, she didn’t forget to give Yang Deyi a look.
Understanding this, Yang Deyi quickly spoke up, "Yes, let your mom go get it herself, it’s been so days since we’ve seen each other, sit and chat with , watch so TV!"
"Okay then!"
Without thinking much, Yang Yuxi obediently sat down.
"Yes, chat with your dad, I can find it myself."
With those words,
Shu iling gave Yang Deyi a look aning "Make sure to keep her calm" and then stood up to walk into the master bedroom, gently closing the door behind her.
Her eyes scanned the room, searching for that bulging handbag.
That’s right.
She wanted to find so evidence from it.
After so searching...
She really did find that handbag.
It was just carefully covered with so clothes, which took her a little while, and also convinced her even more that the bag might contain sothing their daughter didn’t want them to know about.
She couldn’t help but mutter softly, "Hmm, seems like sothing is really up... Otherwise, why cover it up with clothes? After all, this action is like hiding money under a rock..."
But she didn’t step forward imdiately, instead stood there for a mont, hesitating, as a ntal struggle ensued within her.
On one hand, as a mother, her concern and curiosity for her daughter drove her to know the truth; on the other, she also understood the importance of respecting her daughter’s privacy.
But in the end...
For the sake of having a peaceful sleep tonight and in the future, she still reached out and picked up the bulging handbag, opened it, and imdiately saw the plastic bag inside.
Curiously, she took it out, and as she unraveled the outer plastic bag, she couldn’t help but pause, "Why are there tissues in here? Wrapped three tis over, how precious could this thing be?"
This ti, her curiosity was completely piqued, and she continued carefully peeling away layers of tissues.
As the tissues were unveiled, she caught whiffs of a faint fragrance wafting out.
Hmm?
Why does it sll like scallion oil?
Could it be food?
With this question in mind, she continued unwrapping the tissues, and when the last layer was removed, revealing the contents inside, Shu iling couldn’t help but pause.
Oh my, it really is food!
"I thought sothing wrapped so securely would be a precious treasure! Turns out it’s just this?" she muttered softly, with a tinge of amused resignation, "But, where did she pack this from?"
"Hmm? This girl plans to have it as a midnight snack, doesn’t she? Afraid we’d scold her, and that’s why she hid it, right? Oh, how many tis have I told her, eating late at night is bad for her health, why won’t she listen?"
Slling it again and again, she couldn’t help but open the box...
The next second...
A full box of glossy, oily scallion oil braised chicken appeared before her eyes.
Each piece of chicken was cloaked in a thin sheen of oil, garnished with scallion shreds and ginger slices, the golden skin and tender flesh were eye-catching.
