The mont they looked up suspiciously, they saw their wife and the siblings not far away in a sorry state, for a mont...
They could only laugh out of anger!
Su Xiaong touched her nose, blushed a little, and then hurriedly said,
"I didn’t think the whole dumpling skin would be so difficult... But, it’s almost done!"
Lily and Claire were snickering over there.
Su Xiaong blushed again, muttering,
"But I think we might not make it for dinner..."
Yin Shixiu handed the handbag to Claire, took off his coat, removed his cufflinks, rolled up his sleeves, and walked toward the kitchen,
"Let’s see how difficult it is..."
"..."
Su Xiaong blinked and quickly followed her husband into the kitchen!
The two little followers also quickly followed along!
Four little hands clung to the counter that was higher than their heads, wanting to watch Dad and Mom knead the dough.
Yin Shixiu looked at the basin full of dough, it seed the water had been too much, so he washed his hands, scooped in two bowls of flour, and then kneaded it based on his intuition.
Su Xiaong watched from the side, almost shouting, "Go, husband, go!"
Claire and Lily never stepped in to help, sotis kneading dough and cooking aren’t that important; seeing a family gathered in the kitchen always gave a feeling of warmth.
They were reluctant to disturb them.
Claire and Lily were quite perceptive, one went to arrange the indoor plants in the living room, while the other tidied up the toys scattered by Shuangshuang and Huang Huang.
"Wow! It’s starting to look good!"
Xiao ng couldn’t help but exclaim excitedly!
Shuangshuang and Huang Huang didn’t exactly know what was going on but, hearing Mom’s praise, they quickly clapped their hands as well,
"Dad is amazing!"
Yin Shixiu kneaded an appropriately soft dough, which was impressive, but it probably stopped there...
"Let’s eat out."
"Huh?"
"Give the dough to Claire, she knows pastry, rolling dumpling skins shouldn’t be a problem. I’m hungry..."
Xiao ng’s ears got a bit hot, she quickly gave Yin Shixiu a loving hug,
"Sorry, I should have asked them for help earlier."
Yin Shixiu mainly lost patience; kneading the dough was hard enough, rolling out each dumpling skin... they’d be up all night.
If it were Friday or Saturday it’d be one thing, but tomorrow everyone had work or school; staying up too late would definitely affect the next day’s spirit.
"Alright, change clothes, let’s go out."
Yin Shixiu leaned down and kissed Su Xiaong on the lips, Xiao ng liked it too, lifting her head to return the kiss.
Shuangshuang grumbled,
"Not kissing Shuangshuang?"
Looking down at the little girl’s slightly disappointed expression...
The couple burst out laughing, washed their hands, and gave Shuangshuang and Huang Huang plenty of kisses.
After eating dinner out, they returned to find that Claire and Lily had finished wrapping the dumplings.
Little ngxin sighed, this was probably the difference between professional and amateur.
The well-fed family snuggled on the leather sofa.
Even though the TV was on, they were busy cutting the waterlon, ssing around with Dad; only the pitiful Xiao ng held an educational booklet, absentmindedly browsing through it.
Just as she was feeling weary, Xiao ng’s phone rang, it was a call from Qin Hui...
"Hello?"
"I’m about to burst, I’m about to burst!!"
Xiao ng just answered the phone when she heard Qin Hui’s voice, unable to contain her excitent.
"What?"
"I have sothing on my mind."
"..."
On the other end, Qin Hui was lying on her single bed in the school dormitory, tossing and turning, anyone who didn’t know would think she was having a fit.
"Xiao ng, I have sothing on my mind!"
Not receiving a reaction from Su Xiaong, Qin Hui anxiously kicked her legs.
"Uh... what’s on your mind?"
"I’ll feel uncomfortable if I don’t say it, but if I say it... if I say it... I’ll feel very shy..."
Qin Hui’s voice seed to co muffled from under a blanket, Su Xiaong found it quite amusing.
This piqued her interest slightly,
"Oh, shy? What exactly is it?"
Xiao ng asked, grinning with a face full of gossip.
Yin Shixiu raised his eyes, glancing at his wife chatting with her friend, seeing her curled up on the sofa with bare feet.
He reached out and grabbed her ankle, startling Su Xiaong, and then placed her foot on his lap.
Su Xiaong shot him a glance, hmm, having her foot on his lap was quite comfortable.
So she let him be and continued to gossip about Qin Hui’s "mind matters."
Yin Shixiu had no ill intentions towards Xiao ng’s feet, but seeing them, Shuangshuang rembered when Dad tickled her feet...
Despite her age, the sensation was morable.
So the little girl crawled from behind Dad to the front, lying beside Yin Shixiu, and lightly tickled Su Xiaong’s sole with her tiny hands...
"Ah!"
Su Xiaong was stunned from two different sensations at once!
Her foot being tickled was one, she tried to draw back, but Yin Shixiu "aided the enemy," holding her ankle tight.
Shuangshuang giggled gleefully!
But more stimulating than the foot tickling was what Qin Hui was saying about her "mind matters"!
"What’s wrong? Did... did I scare you?"
Qin Hui asked softly, with a slightly nervous tone.
Xiao ng hastily explained, "No, no... yes, kind of!"
She was a bit tongue-tied for a mont, pausing before saying,
"Eric... he’s a bit too old, isn’t he? How old is he, anyway?"
As soon as she said this, a sharp glance ca from Yin Shixiu’s direction.
As Su Xiaong gossiped on the phone with Qin Hui, she didn’t shy away from Yin Shixiu; just from what she said, Yin Shixiu could sowhat guess what the two won were discussing.
Qin Hui liked Eric.
Su Xiaong hadn’t realized Yin Shixiu’s gaze; when Qin Hui ntioned she might have fallen for Eric, she imdiately got lost in thought...
It wasn’t hard to understand liking Eric; Eric was handso, wealthy, with British Royal Family ancestry, strong capabilities, a humorous and fun personality, a gentleman.
But from what Qin Hui was saying, she intended to pursue him.
Liking soone was one thing; being in a relationship is another!
"He’s that old... I don’t think it’s that bad... Anyway, how old is Eric? Isn’t he a college-mate of your husband?"
Oh dear!
To think Qin Hui still didn’t know Eric’s age!
"You... are you serious! You’re saying you like soone without knowing their background?"
"I know! He said he’s not married."
"..."
Su Xiaong felt like kneeling before Qin Hui!
"Hey, age is not a problem... Besides, how much older can he be, at most five or six years."
In Qin Hui’s mind, Eric was no older than twenty-nine or thirty.
"Your head’s five or six years; he’s the sa age as my husband, no, actually a few months older than my husband! He’s thirty-five or thirty-six this year, a decade older than you!"
Su Xiaong with a serious face!
Yin Shixiu raised an eyebrow; she knew so clearly that Eric was older by a few months...
"Is he really that old?! Xiao ng, you better not be pulling a prank on , I’m not that easily fooled..."
You’re not easily fooled?
Su Xiaong silently ridiculed in her heart.
Upon hearing a hint of retreat in Qin Hui’s words, Xiao ng quickly said,
"There are so many handso guys on the Bath campus, broaden your horizons a little!"
Hearing the ten-year age gap with Eric left Qin Hui stunned.
After all, a ten-year gap can cause a significant generation gap!
Even naive Little Bai, Qin Hui, could think of this.
While feeling a bit down, she suddenly thought of sothing else,
"You said... your husband and Eric are the sa age..."
"Yeah, they were in the sa class."
"You seem to be two years younger than , right?"
"..."
With the reminder from Qin Hui, Su Xiaong couldn’t help but feel a sharp glance in her peripheral vision, as she slowly raised her eyes and gulped involuntarily...
Yin Shixiu securely held her ankle, his hand rubbing it slightly.
Xiao ng felt like her leg might be cut off...
