Gu Min slept for a long time, until the light outside gradually dimmed and the red clouds covered the skyline. He finally woke up slowly. He could not remember how long it had been since he had slept so soundly. When he was in the hospital, it always felt a little unreal, not to mention the seven years. Perhaps it was this warm bedroom that brought him too much sense of security, so that when he woke up, he could still remember that he was smiling happily in his dream...

He stretched himself and saw the quilt covering him. He stroked it with his fingers for a few times. In the end, he couldn't control the corners of his mouth that wanted to rise. It was warm and nice...

He turned his head to look at the time again and suddenly felt a little panicked. Although Aunt Lin and Uncle Mu were both very gentle people, it was too rude to sleep for so long just after arriving in the new home. Gu Min quickly got out of bed. Although he was anxious, he still folded the quilt carefully and then hurried out of the room.

As soon as he came out, he heard that familiar clear voice, "Brother! You're awake!"

Then, Lin Wanru's gentle and concerned voice followed, "Hey, Xiao Min is awake, how is he? Is the bed comfortable? If you feel uncomfortable, tell your auntie!"

Gu Min, who had been a little nervous just now, suddenly relaxed a lot and slowed down his pace, but he was still a little embarrassed. "Auntie Lin, Nian Nian, I'm sorry, I don't know why I fell asleep, and I slept for so long that I didn't help everyone clean up."

Hearing this, Mu Qingnian started to "scare" his brother again, "Brother, look at you, you are so polite again, my own brother is sleeping, but I still don't let him sleep? Do you think your sister is Mu Baopi?"

Mu Qingnian put her hands on her hips, her expression serious, trying to act like a spoiled young lady. Then she heard a naked laugh from her own mother, "Pfft~"

"Mom! Why are you affecting my performance?" Mu Qingnian turned around and looked at her mother who was trying so hard to hold back her laughter.

Lin Wanru: “Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha… I’m sorry, sorry, Nian Nian, please continue. I just feel that… Mu Ba Pi… Hahahahahahahahahaha…”

Lin Wanru had always had a low sense of laughter, and she couldn't stop laughing for a while. Mu Qingnian looked at her mother with resentment. Gu Min looked at Aunt Lin, then at Nian Nian who was feeling bitter, and finally he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Gu Min's laughter was heard by the sharp-eared Mu Qingnian. Mu Qingnian turned around suddenly and glared at his brother angrily, "Brother! You bully me too!"

Little did she know that her expression at this moment was the most lively and adorable in Gu Min's eyes. He followed his usual practice, reached out and touched her hair, and said softly, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I apologize, okay?"

Mu Qingnian then snorted and said, "Well, since you're so proactive in admitting your mistakes, I'll forgive you." After all this commotion, Gu Min's sense of embarrassment was completely dispelled. Mu Qingnian reached out, took his arm and walked towards the restaurant. Lin Wanru looked at her daughter who forgot about her mother while holding her brother's hand, and shook her head helplessly, then followed with a smile.

In the restaurant, Mu Fengting was busily putting a sumptuous dinner on the table. Braised pork, Kung Pao chicken, spare ribs... These were all the most common home-cooked dishes, but they made Gu Min swallow his saliva. When he was in the hospital, he had to recuperate, so he ate relatively light meals. Now, seeing these dishes that he had not dared to dream of before, Gu Min felt that he could no longer control the greed in his stomach.

When Mu Qingnian saw Gu Min's eyes light up, he knew that Gu Min liked this cuisine, so he quickly asked him to sit down. However, Gu Min did not rush to sit down. Instead, he turned around and followed Mu Fengting into the kitchen. After hesitating for a moment, he mustered up the courage to ask softly, "Uncle Mu, is there anything else I can do?"

Mu Fengting, who was frying the last dish, was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Min suddenly appear, and a hint of satisfaction appeared in the corner of his eyes. He also knew that if he was not allowed to do anything, he would not be at ease staying here, and blindly protecting him would not be conducive to his recovery from psychological trauma. After thinking about it, he said, "Xiao Min, this is the last dish. Wash your hands first, and then wait for me to fry it, and then you can help me serve it?"

Hearing this, Gu Min's hesitant expression relaxed a lot and he nodded immediately, "Okay! Uncle Mu!"

As the last dish was served, the family of four sat neatly at the table. This was their first meal as a family of four. Mu Fengting remembered that except for him, the other three people could not drink alcohol, so he bought a large bottle of drink, filled four glasses, and raised his glasses. Lin Wanru and Mu Qingnian also raised their glasses. The three of them looked at Gu Min with smiles on their faces. Gu Min was slightly stunned and immediately raised his glass with both hands.

Mu Fengting smiled happily and said loudly, "Come on, let's drink to celebrate the addition of a new member to our family!"

"cheers!"

After everyone put down their cups, Gu Min stood up again and took the initiative to fill the cup with drink. Then he picked up the cup and stood up, leaning slightly and said, "Thank you uncle and aunt, thank you Nian Nian, please take care of me in the future." After that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Mu Qingnian raised the cup and looked at Gu Min's smiling face. Suddenly, she felt a little dazed. In her previous life, he also smiled gently, but his smile was indifferent and distant. This time, it was okay. In the future, she must make him smile more...

"Niannian, why are you standing there if you don't want to drink?" Lin Wanru's words interrupted her wandering. She quickly drank the drink and said sweetly to Gu Min, "Brother, please take care of me in the future!"

The meal was a joyful one. Mu Qingnian kept talking, making everyone laugh. Even Gu Min, who was a little embarrassed at first, kept smiling. After dinner, Gu Min offered to help wash the dishes. Mu Fengting and Lin Wanru smiled at each other and let him do it. Mu Qingnian also ran to the kitchen, grunted and brought a small stool, and stood on it. There was no other way, because she was too short now...

"Brother! Let me help you!"

Gu Min looked at the furry head and pink face beside him, then looked at his hands which were already covered with foam, and still resisted the urge to pinch her. He smiled gently and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Nian Nian!"
