Xu Qingyi woke up groggily from the soft bed.

"Hmm~" The girl stretched.

I checked the time; it was already 4 PM.

Xu Qingyi turned to the side, burying half her face in the sun-scented blankets, and took a deep breath.

Ah, this is the taste of home.

At the same time, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"Qingqing? Are you up yet?" Mrs. Xu asked softly.

Having just passed by and heard noises coming from her daughter's room, Mrs. Xu couldn't help but knock on the door again.

"You're awake," Xu Qingyi mumbled, still half-asleep. "I'll get up right away."

A smile crept onto Xu's mother's face, her eyes filled with doting tenderness.

"I knew it was time for you to wake up, baby. Mommy made some pear soup. Remember to drink it when you get up."

Remembering her daughter's habit of drinking a little sugar water after waking up, Xu's mother had prepared it long ago.

"Click" sound.

A delicate little face peeked out from the crack in the door.

"Mom is the best~" the girl said sweetly, using her usual coquettish manner.

Mrs. Xu tapped the girl's forehead. "Alright, you're so good at acting cute. Finish your drink and tidy up. Xixi will be back soon."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyi pouted, looking somewhat displeased.

"What? He just came back and he's already being so mean to me. Does that mean I'm no longer Mom's precious child just because he's back?"

"What do you mean 'that person'? Xixi is you..." Xu's mother glared, her gentle demeanor instantly turning fierce.

However, before she could finish speaking, Xu Qingyi cleverly interrupted her, having guessed what her mother was about to say.

She nodded haphazardly, "Mmm, I know, I know. Where is the pear soup?"

While trying to fool her mother, she changed the subject.

As expected, Mrs. Xu's attention was drawn away.

"It's kept warm in a thermos. Be careful when you drink it, don't burn yourself..."

Xu Qingyi silently gave herself a thumbs up.

Sure enough, I'm so clever! (Hands on hips)

She wandered into the kitchen and served herself a bowl of soup.

"How does it taste? It's stewed using a new method I just learned." After Xu Qingyi took a bite, Xu's mother asked with a hint of anticipation.

"Mmm! It's refreshingly sweet, not cloying at all, and incredibly delicious!"

Xu Qingyi gave a thumbs up.

"By the way, was the quilt aired out recently? It smells so good from the sun, I don't even want to get out of bed."

Suddenly thinking of the sun-drenched bed, Xu Qingyi casually asked a question.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu smiled and patted the top of the girl's head.

“I just aired it out yesterday. I clean your room every week, and I also air out the bedding every week. I’m just worried that you won’t sleep well when you come back. After all, you’re a delicate person, and you can’t sleep if you’re not comfortable.”

Xu Qingyi was taken aback, and her hand, which was scooping soup, stopped.

what the hell……

The girl lowered her head.

Ms. Xu did not notice her daughter's little mood. She opened another pressure cooker in the kitchen, looked at it, and then closed the lid with satisfaction.

"The pork rib soup was also very good today, Xixi loves it the most."

Xu Qingyi felt sour, and her whole body turned into the shape of a lemon.

She likes to drink it too, okay?

hateful!

However, not wanting to be nagged by her mother, Xu Qingyi still carried the bowl of pear soup to the dining room.

Out of sight is pure.

While slurping down her soup, Xu Qingyi, filled with resentment, bit down hard on the porcelain spoon, trying to grind her teeth.

As a result, someone's tooth got hurt.

Sure enough, she and that person were just incompatible!

My little sister is crying.
