When Qin Bai returned home, Cheng Jing was chatting and laughing on her phone.
Huh?
Something's up with this mom, isn't it? It's so late, and she's still on the phone for ages.
He quietly took off his coat and walked over.
Before he could even sit down, Cheng Jing pushed him aside with disdain.
She even rolled her eyes at him; you can figure it out yourself.
Qin Bai looked down and smelled himself. He did smell a bit too much alcohol. He thought that walking downstairs with Shen Guaiguai for a while would make it better, but there was no change.
But then again, the young girl didn't look down on me, so why does this mother feel like she'll grab a feather duster as soon as she hangs up the phone?
There's no love left.
He sat down opposite Cheng Jing out of curiosity and listened for a few minutes.
A woman?
whispering sound!
It's pointless.
I thought he was an old man on welfare, and I was even prepared to rely on him for support, but you're telling me there's no old man here.
Why.
Time to take a shower.
Qin Bai walked to the bathroom and stuffed all his clothes into the washing machine.
A dozen minutes later.
Qin Bai haphazardly wiped the water droplets from his hair with a towel.
Cheng Jing had already put down her phone and turned to look at her son.
"Look what you've done, the floor is covered in water."
"I......"
Qin Bai looked down and saw that it was quite clean.
He said with a bitter expression, "Mom, today is my first day off. Isn't it too early to start a fight?"
"Huh? Really?" Cheng Jing was stunned for a moment before she realized what she meant.
She waved her hand dismissively: "I'm used to it."
"Sigh, when will these miserable days ever end?"
"Alright, stop pretending and come drink this."
"What?"
"Honey water, and you won't have a headache the next day even if you drink so much alcohol."
Qin Bai sat down next to Cheng Jing with a smile. No matter what, this mother still cared about him.
Cheng Jing continued, "By the way, I have something to tell you. I invited a friend over for the Chinese New Year."
"Friend, is that the auntie who just talked to you on the phone?"
"That's right."
How did you two meet?
"When I'm buying groceries."
Qin Bai nodded.
I understand.
Women shopping for groceries often feel like family, especially when bargaining with the vendor; they're guaranteed to find common ground.
"Mom, isn't it inconvenient for you to invite them over for the New Year?"
Cheng Jing raised an eyebrow: "Why is it inconvenient? Didn't you say it would be more fun with more people?"
"That's not what I meant. Doesn't that aunt have a husband? If you let her come over, what will happen to her family?"
Cheng Jing sighed when this was mentioned.
"She's also a person with a hard life. She was forced by her husband to move out of the house, and she has a daughter with her."
"Hmm? She's not coming over for New Year's Eve dinner with her daughter, is she?"
"I think so. By the way, you told me last time that some people might come to visit during the Chinese New Year. Who will be coming?"
Qin Bai covered his forehead with his hand.
This is getting interesting. If it were just him and his mother, it would be fine. In any case, those watching this drama unfold are all family.
If that aunt brings her daughter over.
hehe!
It's highly likely that within half a day, the entire neighborhood will know how chaotic this family is.
At the same time, Yao Rou pulled Shen Muyao to sit on the edge of the bed.
"Daughter, Mom wants to tell you that I'm going to take you to visit a friend's house during the Chinese New Year."
"Hmm? The auntie who was on the phone with you just now?"
"Yes, yes, she's such a nice person."
Shen Muyao immediately shook her head: "It's not convenient to visit them during the New Year, is it?"
“There’s nothing inconvenient about it. I’ve already asked around. Only she and her son are at home. It’s quite lonely. We’ll go over and have some fun together.”
"I won't go."
Yao Rou was taken aback: "Why?"
"I......"
Shen Guaiguai lowered her head and pondered, unsure how to tell her mother about her plans.
Now that I live so close to Xiaobai, I was planning to go and find Qin Bai with a gift after lunch.
Although such an abrupt visit might cause Xiaobai's mother to misunderstand.
But she couldn't care less about that anymore.
Xiaobai is in high demand right now, and this situation will only intensify as his career gradually gets on track.
Everyone knows his weakness, which is Cheng Jing.
Feng Yaoyao had already seized the initiative and had known her for a long time.
So I had no choice but to take a different approach and visit them during the Chinese New Year.
But how could I say this to my mother? Logically speaking, it would be improper for me to rush over before we were even engaged. Would my mother agree to that?
"Mu Yao, why aren't you saying anything?"
"I...I'm not going."
Why?
Yao Rou looked at her daughter with her head down and brows furrowed, feeling somewhat puzzled.
"I just don't want to go."
"Then you have to give a reason."
Shen Guaiguai continued to shake her head.
No matter how I asked her, she just kept her head down and didn't say anything.
Yao Rou raised an eyebrow, immediately becoming displeased.
That won't do.
Teenagers are the most difficult to manage.
If we don't teach her a lesson, this family will be in complete chaos.
Thinking of this, Yao Rou gritted her teeth, stood up, and walked over with her arms outstretched and sleeves rolled up.
Upon seeing this scene, Shen Guaiguai was so frightened that she moved her body back.
No way.
Do I still have to get beaten up at this age?
So Mom wasn't like this before.
Regardless, I didn't lay a hand on him. Did I go too far?
"Shen Muyao".
A delicate shout made Shen Guaiguai's body tremble.
Then......
Yao Rou then pulled her into her arms and threw her onto the bed.
