Wang Xiuxiu got up to open the door, and Huan Yuanliang and Huan Molin were standing outside.
Huan Molin has grown taller since we last saw each other.
His originally youthful appearance has transformed into one full of handsome young charm.
"Congratulations."
Huan Yuanliang brought a large item, "This is the latest model of floor lamp from abroad. I think it would be very suitable for your living room."
Wang Xiuxiu smiled and accepted it, saying, "Thank you."
Huan Molin was carrying two bottles of red wine. "Auntie, these are the red wines my father brought."
"Oh, that's exactly what I wanted to drink."
After Wang Xiuxiu finished speaking, she realized something was amiss and quickly added, "Quick, come in and sit down. I heard from others that this foreign liquor isn't strong, so today I can finally enjoy it to my heart's content."
Hearing the noise, Lu Shishen and Chen Ji also came out of the kitchen.
Huan Molin saw Chen Ji and quickly walked over, saying, "Uncle, it's been a long time."
Chen Ji smiled and said, "Mm."
Lu Shishen squeezed next to Wang Xiuxiu and took the floor lamp from her. "Come in and sit down, don't be shy."
He acted as if he were the master of the house.
Huan Yuanliang, recalling what happened at the hospital, touched his nose and smiled, "Okay."
Everyone went into the main room and sat down. Chen Ji went back to the kitchen, and Xu Ruantang followed him in.
Wang Xiuxiu thought that since she was the hostess, it was fine to let Lu Shishen into the kitchen, but it was absolutely inappropriate for Chen Ji and Xu Ruantang to be head chefs.
So she followed them inside.
Of the adults outside, only Huan Yuanliang and Lu Shishen remained.
Wang Xiuxiu poured Huan Yuanliang a cup of tea. After Huan Yuanliang finished drinking it, he saw Lu Shishen staring at him with a menacing look in his eyes.
He was a little confused, rubbed his hands together, and forced a smile: "Um, how about I go help too?"
He can't cook, but he can help out.
Wang Xiuxiu's ex-husband is quite strange, and the atmosphere between the two of them sitting here is inexplicably awkward.
Lu Shishen stood up before him, "No need, you're here as a guest, tea is fine."
Huan Yuanliang, who dealt with people all day, immediately sensed the hostility in Lu Shishen's words.
He just didn't understand where this hostility came from.
After Lu Shishen finished speaking, he stepped into the kitchen without waiting for Huan Yuanliang's response.
The kitchen was already crowded with three people, and Wang Xiuxiu was trying to persuade Chen Ji and Xu Ruantang to leave.
"I'll be the head chef today. Don't you trust me to cook?"
Wang Xiuxiu pulled Xu Ruantang's arm and pushed her outside, saying, "Look how much food we've prepared. You guys go out and chat first, I'll be right back. I'll start cooking once everyone's here."
Xu Ruantang glanced at Chen Ji and said with a smile, "Alright, just call us if you need any help."
Wang Xiuxiu wasn't there; what could she possibly talk about with those three grown men?
Xu Ruantang planned to go out and find Xiaobao and Lu Xiaozhao to play.
Before the two of them had even left the kitchen, Lu Shishen came in.
The already cramped kitchen felt even more crowded.
Xu Ruantang pulled Chen Ji aside, "The kitchen is too crowded, let's go out first."
Lu Shishen's expression was not right, and Xu Ruantang wisely retreated.
In the living room, Xiao Bao and Lu Xiao Zhao were playing together, while Huan Molin stood by and watched.
"Xiao Bao, look at your brother."
Huan Molin, holding a cup of tea, asked in a flippant tone, "Missing your brother?"
Xiao Bao didn't even look up, completely ignoring Huan Molin.
Huan Molin was indignant. He drank the tea in his cup in one gulp and sat down next to Xiao Bao.
He leaned closer, blocking the comic book in Xiao Bao's hand, "Xiao Bao, look at your brother."
As Huan Molin spoke, he reached out and cupped Xiao Bao's face, "Oh, our baby has become even more handsome in just a few days."
Xiao Bao frowned in Huan Molin's hands, struggling to break free from his grasp.
She's nowhere near as strong as a teenager.
Suddenly, Huan Molin was pushed away by a strong force. He was not paying attention and fell to the ground.
Xiao Bao took the opportunity to escape from his grasp, and Lu Xiaozhao pulled her to sit down next to him.
Huan Molin was stunned.
Was he just pushed down by a child?
A child whose height only reached his belly?
"Pfft."
Someone nearby chuckled softly.
Huan Molin looked up blankly and saw Xu Ruantang holding a bunch of grapes and throwing them into her mouth, her eyes full of mockery.
"Sister, they're bullying me."
Huan Molin's voice was full of grievance, which gave Xu Ruantang goosebumps all over.
This child used to be so timid and submissive, but in just one year, how did he suddenly become so slippery and greasy?
"I'm not blind. You were the one who bullied Xiaobao first."
Lu Xiaozhao was protecting Xiaobao; Huan Molin at most deserved it.
Xu Ruantang always felt that Huan Molin was now very much like a yandere man in a novel, with a lot of thoughts.
"I was just playing with her."
Huan Molin didn't care. He patted his bottom, stood up, and turned to look at the two children playing quietly in the corner. "Little ones."
He walked over to Huan Yuanliang, picked up his father's teacup, and drank from it.
Huan Yuanliang didn't say anything to him.
Xu Ruantang turned her head and saw two long, dark blue-black wounds on Huan Molin's arm.
What happened to your arm?
She asked casually.
From where Xu Ruantang was standing, she couldn't see Huan Yuanliang's face.
Chen Ji clearly saw that Huan Yuanliang's face turned ugly in an instant.
Huan Molin downed the tea in his cup in one gulp, frowning as he said, "It's really bitter!"
He looked down, raised his arm to examine it, and smiled nonchalantly, saying, "I accidentally got burned by hot oil."
Xu Ruantang felt pain just thinking about it.
"Has the wound been treated?"
