"But where is Mom now? Why hasn't she come back yet?"
"Your mother is shopping with Aunt An'an," Lu Ze told her the truth.
"Oh, I see," said little Lu Xiyuan, with an expression that said, "I understand."
"Then... Xiyuan, can you make a phone call for Dad?" Lu Ze took out his phone and handed it to Lu Xiyuan.
"No! Mom said that girls shouldn't be disturbed when they're shopping!"
If Dad doesn't have anything else important to say, Xiyuan will go back to her room first.
Watching Lu Xiyuan walk away with her short legs, Lu Ze felt even more aggrieved.
He thought to himself, "How can even a child bully him like this? Is there no justice in this world?!"
Just as Lu Ze was feeling aggrieved, the sound of the fingerprint lock being opened and replaced came from the entrance hall.
"Honey, you're back."
Lu Ze went over to Zhang Yuanyuan in a coquettish manner and hugged her in his arms.
"What's wrong? Missing me?"
"Mmm. I missed you," Lu Ze continued to coax Zhang Yuanyuan.
"You little devil!" Zhang Yuanyuan pushed Lu Zhanze away and shouted upstairs, "Lu Xiyuan, Mom bought you pretty clothes and cute dolls!"
Upon hearing that there was a gift, little Lu Xiyuan quickly ran downstairs with her short legs.
"Mom, I love you. I like you the most. Mom is so good." When Lu Xiyuan came downstairs, she first gave Zhang Yuanyuan a big hug before opening her gift.
Lu Ze, standing to the side, asked somewhat dejectedly, "Wife, where's my gift?"
"You'll definitely get yours! Here's the trench coat I bought for you, see if it fits?" Zhang Yuanyuan found a beautifully packaged bag among the many pockets.
It looks very valuable.
"Thank you, wife," Lu Zhanze said, and immediately tried on the clothes in front of Zhang Yuanyuan.
"The size is just right. My wife has good taste. The clothes are very nice and fit perfectly."
Lu Ze was as happy as a child when he received the gift from his wife.
The family of three played around in the living room for a while, and then Lu Xiyuan said to Zhang Yuanyuan, "Mom, I'm going to tell you a secret."
"What secret does Lu Xiyuan want to tell her mother?" Zhang Yuanyuan asked gently, kneeling in front of Lu Xiyuan.
"Exactly, Dad said he misses you, but he doesn't dare to call you. Don't you think he's a coward?"
“Yes, Daddy is a coward, and our Xiyuan can’t be a coward when she grows up.” After saying that, Zhang Yuanyuan glanced meaningfully at Lu Ze beside her.
Lu Ze, feeling a little embarrassed by what his daughter said, turned his head away.
"Mommy, Daddy's shy," little Lu Xiyuan said, covering her mouth with her chubby little hands and laughing as if she had discovered something new.
The family of three was enjoying a happy time together.
On the other hand, Mo Jingfei finished all her work ahead of schedule and boarded a flight back to City A.
The moment she landed, she took a deep breath, then went into the mall and bought Mo Yuchu a lot of clothes and toys.
At Bihai Yunting, the doorbell rang, and Uncle Wang went to open the door.
Upon seeing that it was Mo Jingfei, he respectfully invited her into the house and then took the things from her hands.
"Xingxing, look what fun things your aunt bought you!"
Mo Jingfei shouted Mo Yuchu's name loudly into the room.
"Auntie, it's been so long! I missed you so much!" Mo Yuchu ran out and gave her a big hug.
"Look, do you like these toy stars?" Mo Jingfei said, showing off the toys and clothes as if presenting a treasure.
"Hmm... the clothes are alright. The toys are a bit childish, but Xingxing likes them a lot. These are for you, Auntie."
"You're welcome. Why are you being so polite with your aunt?" Mo Jingfei pinched Mo Yuchu's fair and tender little face.
The skin is very soft and bouncy.
You want someone to pinch you once, and then you want to pinch you a second time.
"Auntie, if you keep pinching him, Xingxing won't be handsome anymore!" Mo Yuchu's frown was practically a miniature version of Mo Jingchen!
"Okay, okay, Auntie won't pinch anymore."
Mo Jingfei laughed at him, saying that at such a young age, he was already starting to care about his appearance.
Are all kids these days so well-groomed?
"Feifei, how long will you stay this time?" An Yiruo asked with concern.
"I finished my work ahead of schedule this time, so I can stay here for a week."
“You can relax and unwind this whole week. You work so hard during the week,” An Yiruo said, feeling very sorry for her sister-in-law.
“I will. How about we organize a group trip? Let’s bring Lu Ze and Zhang Yuanyuan, making it six of us,” Mo Jingfei suggested to An Yiruo.
"A group tour?" That sounds pretty good.
"Yes, before we came back, Mr. Si said there was a hot spring resort near City A that was really fun. We were thinking of going there for a few days and having an exclusive visit."
"Want to come along? We haven't gone on a group trip in a long time," Mo Jingfei said, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Do you want to go?" Mo Jingchen asked An Yiruo gently, seeking her opinion.
"Yeah, I want to go."
“Then let’s go. Call Zhang Yuanyuan and the others later and ask for their opinion.”
"OK."
After An Yiruo told Zhang Yuanyuan about her travel plans, Zhang Yuanyuan immediately agreed.
"Mom, can I go too?" Mo Yuchu blinked, looking at An Yiruo with anticipation.
“You can’t stay at the Mo family’s old house with your sister. You have to take good care of her,” An Yiruo’s words rang out above his head.
When I told him the result, Mo Yuchu wasn't too surprised, but when he heard it with his own ears, he felt so heartbroken.
"I understand, Mom," Mo Yuchu said, putting on a pitiful expression.
“Xingxing, pretending to be pitiful won’t work!” An Yiruo saw through his acting.
"Hmph!" Mo Yuchu angrily ran away.
The three adults in the living room burst into laughter at his appearance.
The next day, Mo Yuchu and Lu Xiyuan were sent to the Mo family's old residence.
The group tour of six people has officially begun.
At a hot spring hotel resort near City A, six people booked three rooms, each equipped with a private hot spring bath.
An Yiruo had been to this hot spring resort before; Mo Jingchen had brought her there once before Xingxing was even born.
After that, An Yiruo always wanted to find an opportunity to play again, but she was delayed for various reasons.
Now, I can say that I've finally fulfilled one of my long-held wishes.
Instead of immediately soaking in the hot springs, everyone put down their luggage, gathered in the hotel lobby, and went to explore the resort.
Your resort is huge, with lots of beautiful scenery. The women can explore, while the men can carry bags and take photos.
The three men behind them would occasionally pull out their photos to compare and comment on whose photography skills were better!
