"Okay, okay, let's pack up and go out for dinner."
Li Mu saw that Lin Wan's mood had calmed down and spoke immediately.
When Lin Wan heard Li Mu's voice, she was about to put her and Ruoruo's clothes into the master bedroom.
"Xiao Wan, Ruoruo should sleep alone now that she is old enough. I have prepared her room."
Seeing Lin Wan's actions, Li Mu hurriedly pulled her and pointed to the room next to the master bedroom and said.
"No, I'm afraid Ruoruo will be scared sleeping alone." Lin Wan frowned and said a little worriedly when she heard what Li Mu said.
Li Mu directly avoided Lin Wan's worried eyes, looked seriously at Ruoruo who was staring at him with wide eyes, and said:
"Ruoruo, can you sleep by yourself now? Are you scared? Daddy thinks Ruoruo is old enough now and needs to learn to sleep by herself. Can you?"
Ruoruo felt a little conflicted as she listened to what her father said.
I thought back to when my grandparents were at home and I heard them discussing how I had grown up and could try sleeping alone. Maybe my parents would even give me a younger brother.
...
...
After a while, Ruoruo made up her mind, looked at Li Mu and replied seriously: "Well... Ruoruo is not afraid, Ruoruo can sleep by herself..."
Seeing Ruoruo like this, Li Mu felt a little distressed, but Ruoruo was so old now, it was time for her to learn to sleep alone.
"Okay, Ruoruo, be good. If Ruoruo is still scared later, just call mom and dad in the room, okay?"
Li Mu walked up to Ruoruo, hugged her, and spoke softly.
Although Lin Wan felt a little distressed, she knew that Li Mu did this for his daughter's own good. When she heard the conversation between the father and daughter, she simply pretended not to hear it.
I went back to my room alone and packed their clothes.
After everything was done, Zhou Qiang suggested going out for dinner. Wu Min hadn't seen Lin Wan for such a long time, and she missed her a lot.
But the grilled fish restaurant was too busy, so Wu Min stayed in the shop to look after it, and Zhou Qiang came to help Li Mu pack up the things in the courtyard.
-------
When a few people arrived at the grilled fish restaurant, Wu Min was busy cleaning the tables and taking orders for the customers.
They stood there for most of the day, and Wu Min didn't even have time to look up at them.
"Xiao Min."
Lin Wan shouted as she looked at Wu Min's busy back.
When she heard her name, Wu Min turned around and saw Lin Wan holding Ruoruo's hand standing at the door of the store, looking at her with a bright smile.
Wu Min put down what he was holding, walked forward and said with a smile:
"Sister Xiaowan, you're back."
"Yes, I passed the exam. I won't be staying here for long this time. I will go to the city of Yancheng to attend university."
Lin Wan smiled and nodded and said.
When Wu Min and Zhou Qiang heard that Lin Wan might go to college in downtown Yancheng, they couldn't help but look at Li Mu.
But Li Mu did not react too much and kept teasing Ruoruo.
"Let's go, let's find a place to eat. You guys haven't eaten yet since you came back, so you must be hungry. The store is so busy right now, I guess there won't be any seats for us to chat."
Wu Min withdrew his gaze, thinking that it was already time for dinner, and the three people who had just returned must be hungry.
After saying that, he took the three of them to a newly opened restaurant nearby and found a corner to sit down.
After returning to their hometown from Lin Wan, they hadn't had time to sit down and eat and chat together for a long time.
So we all prepared to have a little drink and have a good chat about some things that happened recently.
Lin Xiaoxiao came out of the guesthouse, hungry and ready to go to the grilled fish restaurant to have a meal to fill her stomach. She hadn't seen Li Mu at the grilled fish restaurant recently, and when she asked Sister Wu Min, she didn't say anything.
When she arrived at the store, the employee said that Wu Min had gone out to eat with the boss and asked her to order whatever dish she wanted.
When Lin Xiaoxiao heard the word "boss", her eyes lit up immediately, and she grabbed the waiter's arm and kept asking:
"Boss? Is Li Mu back? Where did they go to eat?"
The waiter looked at Lin Xiaoxiao strangely and said helplessly, "The boss is going to eat at the restaurant in front tomorrow. He has been out for a long time. I don't know if he can come back this afternoon."
After saying that, she pulled away Lin Xiaoxiao's hand and ran away, fearing that Lin Xiaoxiao would hold her back and ask her questions.
After all, the store is too busy right now.
After hearing the waiter's words, Lin Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought. Before Lin Xiaoxiao could ask for the specific address of the restaurant, the waiter who had been chatting with her before had disappeared.
He pursed his lips and went to look for restaurants one by one reluctantly.
As soon as they arrived at a restaurant, Lin Xiaoxiao saw through the glass a woman with long hair sitting next to Li Mu.
Li Mu would pick up some food for her and wipe the corners of her mouth from time to time.
This made Lin Xiaoxiao feel a little jealous. Although she knew in her heart that she should be Li Mu's wife, she still felt uncomfortable.
He pushed open the door of the restaurant and walked in, shouting to their table, "Sister Xiaomin, Brother Qiang, Li Mu, why are you here?"
As he spoke, he walked over to Li Mu and sat down.
Wu Min and Zhou Qiang were originally talking about Lin Wan. When they heard Lin Xiaoxiao's voice, they looked over and their faces suddenly changed.
Lin Wan heard a girl's clear voice coming from behind her, but before she turned around to look.
A pretty little girl with a small face sat next to Li Mu, which made Lin Wan feel bad.
He pushed Li Mu and asked, "Li Mu, why don't you introduce her to me?"
Li Mu didn't feel guilty at all. He distanced himself from Lin Xiaoxiao and said casually, "She? She got a fish bone stuck in her mouth when eating fish at a grilled fish restaurant, and I saved her."
"Then it got to us and we couldn't get rid of it."
Lin Xiaoxiao, who was standing by, was furious when she heard what Li Mu said, and she shouted directly at Li Mu:
"What do you mean by entangled with you? What do you know about our fate, Li Mu?"
Wu Min, who was originally watching the fun, hurriedly said, "Okay, stop arguing. Xiaoxiao, have you eaten yet? If not, sit down and eat together."
After saying that, he walked to Lin Xiaoxiao and pulled her to sit next to him.
Lin Xiaoxiao was about to say something when Wu Min picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it into her mouth.
Lin Wan watched the few people getting along and felt a little jealous. She didn't expect that during the time she was away, they met new people and got along so well.
Lin Wan only heard some fragments of Li Mu's explanation.
Because of Lin Xiaoxiao's arrival, the atmosphere fell into a strange awkwardness for a moment, but Lin Xiaoxiao did not feel that way. Instead, she started to eat with relish.
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao's heartless look, no one knew what to say.
They all lowered their heads and ate the food in their bowls in silence.
After Lin Wan asked that question, she never took the initiative to bring up a new topic again, but just answered Wu Min and the others' questions with "um".
