"Who knows?" Old Mrs. Tan didn't have the energy to think about it anymore.

"My mother is really something. She only cares about eating and doesn't care about the life or death of her son." Tan Shilei was so angry that his teeth were chattering.

"Don't you know who your mother is? Stop nagging me here, just shut up and go to sleep!" Tan Minghua warned again.

Tan Shilei didn't dare to make any sound this time. He curled up his body, covered his stomach tightly with both hands, and forced himself to fall asleep quickly.

Maybe it was because he was hungry, but Tan Shilei didn’t sleep well that night. He was still a little drowsy until the broadcast about going to school the next morning started.

Tan Minghua stood up cursing. They usually didn’t eat breakfast. They just drank a bucket of water and went to work.

Old Mrs. Tan also had to go to work. After just one night, her waist seemed to have become even more hunched.

Only Tan Shilei was still sleeping in the tent. When Huo Qiaoyu brought Su Miaomiao and the others over, they only saw Tan Shilei.

"Lei'er." Huo Qiaoyu stepped forward and called out.

She was in a better mood now since she hadn't seen Tan Minghua so early in the morning.

"Hmm?" Before Tan Shilei opened his eyes, he smelled a fragrance.

"It's an egg..." Tan Shilei sniffed hard.

"Yes, Mom brought you some egg pancakes, hurry up and eat them." Huo Qiaoyu urged again.

When Tan Shilei heard that there was food, he immediately opened his eyes and sat up from the ground.

"Where is it?!"

"Here, this is for you." Huo Qiaoyu smiled and took out a small piece of egg pancake from her arms and handed it over.

Tan Shilei didn't even look at it, he just grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.

The egg pancake was only the size of a palm, and Tan Shilei finished it without even tasting it.

"Is that all?" Tan Shilei smacked his lips and looked at Huo Qiaoyu.

"This is an egg pancake. It's rare to have so much of it." Huo Qiaoyu lowered her voice.

"That small piece just now is not enough for an egg. You ate a whole bowl of brown sugar eggs last night." Tan Shilei said with some dissatisfaction.

When Huo Qiaoyu heard this, her expression paused slightly.

Tan Shilei immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing in front of Huo Qiaoyu, and immediately put on an aggrieved look.

"You used to save the delicious food for me. Dad told me last night that now that my uncles are here, you'll treat me as a burden and won't love me anymore." As Tan Shilei spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.

"He's talking nonsense! Don't listen to your father's nonsense in the future. You are my son and you will never be a burden to me!" Huo Qiaoyu's expression immediately softened.

"Really?" Tan Minghua asked, looking up.

"Of course it's true."

"Mom, I knew you wouldn't abandon me."

“…”

Su Miaomiao stood aside. This was clearly a warm picture of mother and son, but she noticed that the smile on Tan Shilei's face was not reflected in his eyes.

Even when he was snuggling in Huo Qiaoyu's arms, there was a hint of disgust in his eyes.
