Hello, handsome!
"Hey, you too."
Huang Xiaojin seemed to have a good impression of Xiaobaicai. She asked curiously, "Young man, do you own this restaurant? This dish is delicious."
"Hehe~ That's right, it's my family's restaurant. Eat more if you like, it's on me."
Little Cabbage was chatting with a child while lying on the table, but before she could finish a few sentences, she felt someone touch her head. When she turned around, she found that it was her boyfriend, Qiongqi.
Qiongqi glanced at Huang Xiaojin, then at his 'second nephew' Ya Zi and Yue Jiuling, and asked, "Your children?"
No, you've misunderstood.
Upon hearing Qiongqi's words, Yue Jiuling nearly spat out the soup she had just taken a sip of. She looked at Qiongqi speechlessly and said, "Boss, can you please look at things more clearly? Let's not even talk about whether we're innocent or not. Even if we were, how could the two of us have a child like this?"
Yue Jiuling's meaning was very clear: this human child had no relation to the two demons.
Ya Zi looked at her uncle with a helpless expression and said, "Uncle, this is a colleague's relative's child."
Even Xiaobaicai was amused by her boyfriend. She covered her mouth and said with a laugh, "Brother Qi, are you seeing things? You can tell at a glance that this is a different species. This little girl is Sister Yi's cousin!"
"Come here, Xiao Jin, call him Uncle~"
Yue Jiuling immediately pointed at Qiongqi and made Huang Xiaojin call him "uncle".
Hello, Uncle!
"Oh, okay, hello you too. I misread it. I didn't notice before. By the way, Xiaobai, I just made a new dish in the kitchen. Would you like to try it?"
Qiongqi smiled at the child, then put his arm around Xiaobaicai's shoulder and said gently, "I've been working on this for half an hour."
"Oh, you cooked again? Okay then, Brother Long, Sister Jiuling, we'll go to the kitchen first, you guys enjoy your meal~"
Little Cabbage was quickly taken to the kitchen by Qiongqi, leaving Yue Jiuling, Yazi, and Huang Xiaojin behind.
Huang Xiaojin watched the two people heading to the kitchen, then lowered her head and continued eating. She picked up a slice of meat and ate it, then hesitated for a moment before timidly asking, "By the way, Sister Jiuling, Brother Long, I was in a bit of a rush when I left, and I think I lost an exercise book at school. Could you take me back to the classroom to get it later?"
"You lost your exercise book? Was it something you urgently needed?"
Yue Jiuling looked at Huang Xiaojin and said, "If it's not too urgent, why don't we wait until tomorrow to pick it up? We don't know if the school will be closed by now."
Ya Zi also said, "Yeah, it's almost eight o'clock now. By the time we finish eating, it will probably be nine o'clock, which is too late."
"But this notebook is for urgent homework; there are several worksheets inside..."
Huang Xiaojin looked up at Yue Jiuling, and said urgently, "I want to go back and get it~"
"Okay, let's finish our meal quickly and go back to get it."
Seeing the child's expression, Yue Jiuling's heart softened. She thought that maybe that notebook really was very important.
Hearing that Yue Jiuling had agreed, Ya Zi naturally agreed as well, so the group quickly finished their meal and then took a taxi to Huang Xiaojin's school.
By the time they returned to the school gate, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, the school gate was still open. When they entered the school together, they only told the campus police guard that they were going in to get something, and after showing Huang Xiaojin's student ID, the three of them were able to enter the school.
"Did you leave your exercise book in the classroom? Come on, which floor? It's too dark here, let us go up with you to get it."
Ya Zi walked down to the teaching building and looked at Huang Xiaojin, asking her a question.
Yue Jiuling looked around at the dark, dimly lit campus and said, "It's so dark. Why aren't the lights on at this time? Your school is quite frugal."
"Exactly, at least turn on the streetlights. It's pitch black here, aren't you afraid someone will slip and fall?"
Ya Zi also took the opportunity to complain about the school.
“Yeah, we don’t turn on the lights during the holidays, but we usually do,” Huang Xiaojin turned on the flashlight on her phone and led the way up to the teaching building: “My classroom is on the fourth floor, let’s go.”
Looking at the half-old staircase, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi followed behind Huang Xiaojin, took out their phones and used flashlights to go upstairs.
