"The water's boiled, bring the dumplings over."
"Here we go."
Qin Bai brought the wrapped dumplings into the kitchen.
Cheng Jing asked in a low voice, "What are we going to do tonight?"
"Huh? What do you mean, what should we do?"
"Don't play dumb with me, there will be more people coming in a bit."
Qin Bai immediately covered her mouth: "Quickly spit it out, this stuff only works for bad things, not good ones."
Cheng Jing took his hand away: "Now you know you're scared? Where were you before?"
"I......"
Qin Bai was speechless after being rebuked.
Cheng Jing continued, "Have you thought about where you'll stay tonight even if no one comes?"
Qin Bai was taken aback. He hadn't really thought about this question; he had been preoccupied with how to resolve the chaotic situation.
Feng Yaoyao is currently alone at home; we can't very well let her go home by herself during the Lunar New Year.
Yao Rou is currently drunk, so Shen Guaiguai will also be staying here.
Are we going to have to stay here tonight?
After thinking for a moment, Qin Bai said, "Luckily, there's enough room. I can sleep on the sofa."
"That is, if no one comes, otherwise... hehe."
Cheng Jing smiled happily; this kind of iconic scene is something you'll only see once in your lifetime.
You know what, it's actually quite amusing to watch them fight over my son.
I just don't know when I'll be able to hold my grandson. I wish it could be soon.
Many of my peers enjoy this treatment.
Qin Bai took the dumplings and threw them all into the pot at once.
"Mom, can't you wish me well for once? Aren't you afraid they'll team up and beat me up?"
Cheng Jing looked up and patted his head: "I'm scared, that's why I've been training your physical fitness all the time, just in case you can't take a beating."
"Hehe, thank you so much."
Qin Bai turned and left; he couldn't communicate with this mother anymore.
Feng Yaoyao sat down next to Shen Guaiguai and took out a tissue to wipe the flour off her face.
"What are you doing here all by yourself, Aunt Yao?"
Shen Guaiguai pointed towards the bedroom: "He drank too much."
"Huh?" Feng Yaoyao's eyes widened. She never expected Yao Rou to be here.
"I remember you said that Aunt Yao met a friend and was going to visit her home. Why are you here?"
Shen Guaiguai pointed towards the kitchen again: "Friend."
"You mean Aunt Cheng is Aunt Yao's friend?"
"Um."
Feng Yaoyao was somewhat incredulous; how could such a coincidence happen?
In that case, she's already one step ahead of me, at least in terms of getting through to the parents.
I hate it.
I hate you so much.
Why didn't Liu Yue and Cheng Jing become friends? It would have been easier for them to do everything that way.
It's all Yueyue's fault. I always tell her to go out more, but she just won't listen.
When she comes back this time, I'll make sure she comes here more often; maybe she can become friends with Cheng Jing.
That's right, let's do it that way.
Qin Bai leaned closer to the window, his gaze falling on the street below.
Bathed in moonlight and the glow of fireworks, the people below were faintly visible.
I looked them over one by one, but didn't see any familiar faces.
I glanced at the time; it was almost 10 o'clock. If I didn't come by now, probably no one else would.
Qin Bai didn't look away until the dumplings were served.
Cheng Jing walked over and said with a smile, "Don't look, how can you see clearly from such a high place?"
"Of course you can, but don't forget I'm Erwa's all-seeing eye."
"Oh, I see. Have you ever heard that Sixth Brother can become invisible?"
Qin Bai was shocked. Could there really be places he hadn't seen?
He thought about it carefully.
"Impossible! Let's make a bet. If I lose..."
Ding-dong!
Just as Qin Bai was about to reveal the stakes, the doorbell rang.
He was completely stunned.
This isn't a doorbell, it's a midnight death knell!
My heart skipped a beat for a few seconds in fright.
Cheng Jing hadn't expected things to be so coincidental, and her gaze turned towards the doorway.
Feng Yaoyao turned to Qin Bai: "Are there any other people coming?"
"No, I don't know."
Ding dong ding dong ding dong!
The doorbell rang even more urgently.
Cheng Jing patted him and whispered, "Go open the door. There's no way to avoid this now."
"Okay, I'm going now, Mom. If I'm in any danger, remember to save me."
"Hehe, then you can clean up the kitchen later."
"Okay, no problem."
Qin Bai agreed and walked laboriously toward the door.
Shen looked at him with a puzzled expression, then seemed to understand something, her eyes gradually turning cold.
Qin Bai gritted his teeth and slowly opened the door, his hands trembling.
"Hurry up and catch it, hurry up and catch it! Why are you so slow? It's burning me!"
"Huh? It's just the two of you?"
Qin Bai looked at the fake brother and the real brother at the door, who were holding two plates of dumplings in their hands.
"It's Chinese New Year, and we're all neighbors, so I'm bringing you two plates of dumplings. They're beef-filled and very delicious."
Then the two brothers started peeking inside.
Qin Bai gave a cold laugh.
You're not really here to deliver dumplings, you're just here to watch the show.
It's really just a sliver of hope.
We didn't let you see the bloodshed, and we even served you two plates of dumplings.
Sure enough, disappointment was evident in the eyes of the two brothers.
On their way back, they both had some doubts.
Logically speaking, the two women should have started fighting when they met, but there was no sign of hostility at all; instead, they seemed quite affectionate.
