There was no festive atmosphere at home. Su Yi looked at the cold stove and empty pots, his face drooping. He quickly stood up, called Xiao Liu, and headed to Liu Huai Lane.
Su Chang'an, who had just gone out to buy groceries, encountered Su Yi's car leaving as soon as he entered the compound. His heart sank and he immediately rushed home.
"Mom, it's Lunar New Year's Eve, why is Dad still at the military base?"
Qin Xiangxiang remained expressionless and said quietly, "They went over there~"
