However, this was ten years ago.
Her parents did not know that Chi Cheese was actually her biological daughter.
She and Chi Baiyi had already discussed it and decided not to reveal to the public that she was Chi Naozi's biological mother.
They couldn't possibly reveal to the public that Chi Nai came from ten years in the future. Therefore, if they announced that she was Chi Nai's biological mother, the public would definitely assume that she got pregnant and gave birth at eighteen. This would likely be even harder for her family to accept than the fact that she wasn't Chi Nai's biological mother.
Moreover, she was in college when she was eighteen, spending all her time at school. How could she have had time to get pregnant and have a child? It would have been too easy for the truth to be exposed.
Therefore, it's better to let the secret that Chi Cheese is her biological daughter remain buried in the hearts of the three of them.
Chi Nai was a little worried when she saw that her mother was still not speaking.
"Mom, are you afraid I'll tell everyone that you're my biological mother? Don't worry, I have a very small mouth, it's very tight, so no one else will know this secret."
Qin Yuanyao touched Chi Nao's worried little face and smiled, "Mommy isn't worried. Mommy is just thinking about when to take you to see your grandparents."
Upon hearing this, Chi Nao's almond-shaped eyes sparkled, "The sooner the better! I miss my grandparents so much!"
Qin Yuanyao made up her mind, "Then let's go back to see Grandpa and Grandma next Saturday?"
"Great!" Chi Nao was overjoyed.
Chi Baiyi said with a smile, "I'll go back with you."
Qin Yuanyao glanced at him sideways.
No need to try and get noticed, I already forgot about you!
...
The day arrived when we returned to Qin Yuanyao's hometown.
Chi Cheese and Chi Baiyi both woke up early.
After washing her face and applying lotion, Chi Nao began to carefully choose the clothes she would wear that day.
After washing up, Chi Baiyi carefully selected the clothes he wanted to wear, while having the servants carry the gifts he had bought to his car one by one.
Qin Yuanyao was the only one who was very casual, not even bothering to put on makeup, completely slacking off.
It took the father and daughter more than half an hour to choose their clothes.
Chi Nao, dressed in a beautiful princess dress, twirled in front of Qin Yuanyao.
"Mom, am I pretty today?" Chi Nao asked expectantly.
"It's so pretty! My daughter has such a great eye for choosing dresses."
Chi Nai's little face was full of satisfied smiles.
"How do I look?" Chi Baiyi asked Qin Yuanyao expectantly.
Qin Yuanyao said quite frankly, "As handsome as ever."
A satisfied smile appeared on Chi Baiyi's face.
Qin Yuanyao thought to herself that she was truly a master of balancing things! She had to praise both of them and satisfy both of them.
Qin Yuanyao's hometown is more than three hours away from the city by car.
Qin Yuanyao had already told her parents that she would bring Chi Nao and Chi Baiyi back with her.
They arrived at her hometown after noon.
Qin Yuanyao's hometown is a small town with a relatively underdeveloped economy.
Her family lived in a two-story self-built house, with a fenced-off area in front where they grew vegetables they often ate.
When Chi Baiyi's car stopped in front of her house, all the neighbors on both sides came out to watch.
This car looks very expensive and luxurious; such a luxurious car has never appeared in their small town before.
Qin's father and mother also came out of their home.
Qin Yuanyao opened the back door first and got out of the car. "Dad, Mom."
Chi Naozi followed Qin Yuanyao out of the car and greeted them enthusiastically, "Grandpa—Grandma—"
Both of Qin's parents were taken aback.
Although they had heard their daughter explain the situation over the phone beforehand, and they had also watched the entire live broadcast of "Our Little Family of Three" and knew what was going on.
However, they still didn't expect that Chi Cheese would change her way of addressing them as soon as they met, calling them grandpa and grandma so warmly.
After a moment of stunned silence, Qin's parents smiled.
"Your name is Cheese, right? You're so pretty," Qin's mother said, bending down and smiling at Cheese.
"Grandma, you're beautiful too, just like Mom." Chi Nao's little mouth was as sweet as honey.
Chi Baiyi stood in front of Qin's parents, his hands full of things.
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt. Cheese is still young and doesn't quite understand the proper etiquette. She really likes Yaoyao and hopes that Yaoyao can be her mother, so she's addressing you like she does on TV. I'm sorry."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You can call us whatever you want," said Qin's father.
Qin's mother nodded in agreement. "It's just a form of address, it's not important. Don't just stand outside, come in, lunch is ready."
The dining table in the living room was already laden with a sumptuous spread of dishes.
During the meal, Chi Baiyi seemed somewhat reserved, unlike her usual relaxed demeanor.
Chi Nai was very talkative, constantly asking Qin's father this and Qin's mother that, her little mouth never stopping.
Because she kept talking, there wasn't a single second of silence or awkwardness at the dinner table.
"Grandma, eat this. You love pork liver the most." Chi Naoqi awkwardly picked up a piece of pork liver with her chopsticks and put it into Qin's mother's bowl.
"Grandpa, have a chicken leg. You love chicken the most." Chi Naoqi awkwardly picked up a chicken leg and put it into Qin's father's bowl.
Both of Qin's parents looked completely astonished.
How did the little one know what their favorite food was? Did Qin Yuanyao tell her?
Although Qin Yuanyao never told Chi Nao what her parents liked to eat, she knew that she might tell Chi Nao ten years later.
She was very pleased that Chi Cheese remembered so well what her parents liked to eat.
Qin Yuanyao said to her parents, "I mentioned it to Cheese before, I didn't expect her to remember."
Qin's parents liked Chi Cheese even more.
This child remembers so clearly what Qin Yuanyao mentioned casually.
What a thoughtful and kind child.
"Thank you, cheese," said Mr. and Mrs. Qin.
"Don't you like chicken drumsticks?" Qin's father asked. "I see a lot of kids really like eating chicken drumsticks."
“I usually eat a lot of chicken legs, so today’s chicken legs are for Grandpa,” Chi Nao said.
Qin's father smiled and said, "But this is a chicken leg that Grandma specially prepared for you, so I can't eat it."
Chi Nai exclaimed "Ah!" her little face contorted in shock. "Grandma prepared this for me? Then you should let me eat it."
As she spoke, she took the chicken leg from Qin's father's bowl and took a big bite.
"Grandma, it's so delicious! Thank you, Grandma, for making such a delicious chicken leg for me!" Chi Nai praised him to the skies.
Qin's parents were so amused by her adorable appearance that they couldn't stop laughing.
After finishing their meal, Qin Yuanyao and her mother cleaned up in the kitchen, while Qin's father went to the living room with Chi Baiyi, chatting casually while scrutinizing Chi Baiyi.
Chi Cheese, on the other hand, obediently watched TV on the side, without disturbing anyone.
Tomorrow there are only a few thousand words left until the finale!
