After speaking, she planted a big kiss on Mrs. He’s cheek.
"Oh dear, you little rascal, you’ve made my face all greasy!"
Though Mrs. He voiced her displeasure, her eyes were curved in a joyful smile.
That happiness, that joy, was undoubtedly from the heart.
He Tianxin tightened her grip on her chopsticks, the veins on the back of her hand standing out.
Actually, she could join in too, the four of them chatting and laughing together, enjoying a warm family mont.
But the pain from her past life felt like a chasm, forcibly separating her from her family.
Although Mr. He was smiling at his wife and younger daughter, he didn’t neglect He Tianxin.
Seeing He Tianxin looking a bit lonely, Mr. He quickly picked up a piece of pork intestine and put it into her bowl, "Xinxin, your favorite pork intestine, eat up."
"...Okay!" He Tianxin looked down at the pork intestine in her bowl, then glanced at her father’s loving smile, and felt a warm current flow through her heart.
The gap that once seed insurmountable between her and her loved ones didn’t seem so unbridgeable anymore.
"And here’s so pig’s foot, eat up, or Tiantian will gobble it all up!"
Feeling that He Tianxin was no longer as distant as before, Mr. He was delighted and jokingly remarked.
"Oh no, my pig’s foot!"
He Tiantian had already decided not to easily oppose her sister.
Seeing their father purposely trying to bond them through humor, she played along.
She hurriedly ran back to her seat from behind Mrs. He, grabbed her chopsticks, and pretended to compete with He Tianxin for the food.
He Tianxin felt the familiar family atmosphere, and sotis, the little squabbles between sisters not only didn’t hurt their relationship but actually brought them closer.
Well, since the events in her past life hadn’t happened yet, and she was already cautious, there was no need to be hostile with He Tiantian.
He Tianxin did harbor resentnt towards her sister, but hatred itself is also a strong emotion.
Without love, where does the hatred co from?
Once, He Tianxin and He Tiantian were such loving sisters!
He Tianxin closed her eyes tightly, temporarily putting aside the mories of her past life, and returned to her past dynamic of "loving and bickering" with her sister.
"Put it down! That piece is mine!"
"It’s mine! And this braised pork is mine too!"
"Don’t grab it; you’ve already had six pieces. Aren’t you afraid of getting fat?"
"Hmph, I was born to never gain weight, it’ll drive you mad!"
"He Tiantian!"
"What, He Tianxin!"
At the dining table, the two daughters held their chopsticks, intending to pick up food, but in fact, they were just quarreling.
Such bickering was a common occurrence at the He family dining table in the past.
Every ti Mrs. He saw it, she’d get annoyed, find it botherso, and felt like her daughters were little devils out to annoy her.
But after the painful experience of almost losing the younger daughter, seeing the two kids playing around wildly brought Mrs. He a sense of peace and nostalgia.
That’s right!
This is what the family should be like.
Although it’s troubling, both kids are healthy and well!
Mr. He couldn’t help but show a reassuring smile too. As a driver, he generally didn’t drink alcohol.
But today, since he was on leave and was truly happy, he took out so precious liquor and started drinking in sips.
The family enjoyed a lively al together.
After dinner, as usual, He Tiantian pushed the bowl aside and put down her chopsticks, heading straight to the sofa to lounge.
He Tianxin, on the other hand, habitually helped her mother clean up the dishes and tidied up.
Watching He Tiantian lying on the sofa fiddling with her new phone, changing ringtones, and playing a few simple pre-installed gas, He Tianxin lightly bit her lip.
There was still so resentnt, but, sigh, today the family was finally so happy, she decided to say less to avoid spoiling the mood.
He Tiantian was, after all, her biological sister and had just co out of the hospital, so she’d let it go this ti.
In the future, if He Tiantian remains this lazy, she’ll definitely reprimand her properly!
"Alright, Xinxin, don’t keep yourself busy, it’s almost one o’clock. You better head back to school for class!"
The eldest daughter was sensible, and Mrs. He felt sorry for her.
Besides, the eldest daughter still needed to attend school, and they couldn’t delay important matters.
Mrs. He directly pushed He Tianxin out of the kitchen, not forgetting to ask, "By the way, do you have enough money to spend? Is there anything you want to buy?"
"Enough! There’s nothing in particular I want."
Hearing her mother’s concern, He Tianxin sniffled slightly, responding in a muffled voice.
"Alright, then hurry back to school. Oh, and about the phone, are you going to replace it yourself or should mom go with you?"
"I’ll do it myself, Mom, don’t worry about it."
"Okay, I knew my Xinxin is sensible and capable! Oh, if only Tiantian were like you—"
Mrs. He might not be as perceptive as Mr. He, but she knew she favored the younger daughter between her two girls.
But she really had no choice; she just hoped that the eldest daughter, being mature, could understand her.
He Tianxin: ...In my past life, I’ve been "understanding" enough; in this life, I don’t want to be anymore.
And her first act of defiance was to tear apart the lie of He Tiantian’s "talent!"
