"It's no wonder you have such thoughts - and they're not entirely wrong - this machine was originally invented by my mother, and Miss Chu Moyin did participate in its improvement. Now the operating system has become more convenient - my mother's way of thinking always tends to complicate simple things, which is really annoying."
“…”
After all, he participated in the improvement.
Chu Shangli seemed to breathe a sigh of relief——
She herself didn't know what kind of existence she hoped Chu Moyin would be for her as she accumulated more and more information.
"So, are your parents scientists or something like that?"
"No, no, not a scientist—my mother's main occupation is a cook, and she has a lot of side jobs—"
“Haa ...
A thought flashed through Chu Shangli's mind: "Is your mother a big shot in the empire?"
"What do you think?" asked the Cheshire Cat.
"Maybe...?" Chu Shangli paused and shook his head: "No, it must be."
"Well, that was a long time ago. I can't say I'm a big shot right now—"
"Well, Family has been around for a long time. But as for glory, even if it's only for a moment, it's enough to have shined once."
"It wasn't brilliant before." The Cheshire Cat was silent for a moment, then said, "She married young and died young—if she had lived, she would have become a great person—but it's a pity that she disappeared so early with the passage of time."
"ah--"
Although he had considered this possibility, Chu Shangli still neglected it——
"I'm sorry, I don't know..."
"It doesn't matter. How could anyone know everything about the other person from the start? Unless they're a pervert like me... So I should feel safe if you don't know anything, right?"
Chu Shangli hesitated, not knowing what question to ask next.
There are many things I want to ask——
For example, what does her father do, how did her father and mother know each other, and has Chu Moyin had any contact with her parents?
But if I think about it, it would be really rude to keep asking this question... I'm not a household registration officer...
"Don't be so restrained. Just ask whatever you want to ask directly—" The Cheshire Cat laughed and said, "Since you mentioned my mother, you must also mention my father, right?"
"Well……"
"My father died a long time ago—even earlier than my mother. The two people did have some connection with Miss Chu Moyin, and Miss Chu Moyin was also very familiar with them—of course, before she went to the Chu family..."
"So, Miss Cheshire Cat, you..."
Seeing the Cheshire Cat's rather mysterious and cheerful appearance, she couldn't imagine that the Cheshire Cat had such a past...
"Yes, that's right. Living alone is actually very difficult. If Miss Chu Moyin has helped me, it must have been a lot. Although she is indifferent to most things, she is very sincere when it comes to her concern... Because of her help, I was able to gain a foothold in the empire..."
"But—didn't Family exist before my sister was born..." Chu Shangli finished speaking and realized, "You're not the original owner of this store?"
"Should I say it's the right answer, or is it the wrong answer? I'm the founder of this store—? But, I'm not the original owner of this store—"
"What does that mean...?"
"Hey, you two," Ying Meng interrupted and grumbled, "Are you treating me like I don't exist? As if a living person like me doesn't exist? You're just happily chatting among yourselves, but I can't get a word in about anything like food, money, or the store..."
