In the living room, four people sat facing each other in twos, not saying a word to each other.

From time to time, Bai Xunguang raised his eyes to glance at Su Hui, whose expression remained unchanged, and Su Yi, who was obviously not very happy, curled his lips and continued to play games.

The weird atmosphere didn't affect Qin Sinian, for him it was just a different place to study.

For a moment, the only sound in the living room was the sound of buttons on Bai Xunguang's phone and the crisp sound of Su Hui putting down the ceramic cup.It's also harmonious.

Until Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai came back.

For Mrs. Bai, who is still relatively young at heart, there is nothing more pleasing than seeing four beautiful children as soon as she enters the door.

She received a text message from her son early this morning, knowing that Qin Sinian's parents were unable to come back due to work.Almost the moment Bai Xunguang opened his mouth, she agreed to her son bringing back his little classmate, so much so that when she saw Qin Sinian, there was still love from her elders in her eyes.

"Hello, uncle and aunt."

"It's New Years Eve, treat this place as your own home." Mrs. Bai pulled him to sit beside her, smiling happily.

This boy was so perfect for her.

Qin Sinian nodded and showed a shy smile.

It is rare for the Bai family villa to be so lively, and even Mr. Bai, who is always serious, has a smile on his face.

Qin Sinian was sitting upright on one side of the chessboard. He and Su Yi were playing chess with Mr. Bai. Bai Xunguang and Su Hui were sitting opposite the sofa and chatting with Mrs. Bai.Although most of the time it was Su Hui and Mrs. Bai's gossip in the chat circle, Bai Xunguang listened while playing games, and echoed a few words from time to time.

"Auntie going back to Hong Kong City tomorrow?"

Mrs. Bai's natal family is the Lin family in Hong Kong City, the head of several major families in Hong Kong City.

"Well, let's go tomorrow afternoon. If there is anything you want to eat, Auntie will bring it back for you."

"No need, the food over there is too sweet. Just come back early and let me come over for dinner."

Su Hui loved sweets before she was six years old, but she seldom touched them afterwards.I don't know if it is because of the premature ripening, even the taste has changed.

Mrs. Bai straightened her hair, "I heard that your second uncle signed a big deal recently, and wants to set up a line with Hong Kong City?"

Su Hui sighed, "You know about this too. I'm just worried, and I always feel that this matter will not be that simple."

"I heard that it was the olive branch that the Huo family handed over first."

"Gu Huaiming and I ran into a group of them when we went to the Yiqun mansion. The second uncle was afraid that it would be difficult to break up if we got involved, and he was jealous of the terms they offered, so he hesitated. I didn't care about it anymore."

"You can concentrate on studying in S City, and leave the mess at home to the adults. There is no reason for a good little girl to worry about this and that every day."

Su Hui snuggled into her arms, "Auntie still loves me."

"If Xunguang is half as sensible as you, I'll be relieved."

"Mom—" Bai Xunguang elongated his voice, "Why are you talking about me again?"

Madam Bai shook her head, Su Hui looked at him and smiled helplessly.

Mr. Bai gave up the chess game to Su Yi and Qin Sinian halfway through the game, and went to drink tea by his wife.

Su Yi's chess-playing skills were developed during the hospitalization period when he was a child, and his every move is more like a subconscious reaction after countless practice.Qin Sinian, on the other hand, relied purely on intuition, getting slower and slower later on, wandering between thoughts.

Mrs. Bai held the cup and listened to her son and Su Hui stuttering to find something to talk about. She glanced casually at the young man with his back straight and holding a white piece in his hand, and suddenly a familiar feeling emerged in her heart.

She poked Mr. Bai's waist, and said in a low voice, "Husband, do you think that Xiao Qin's side profile looks quite similar to your temperament when you were young?"

"Have it?"

"Meticulous, sort of."

Mr. Bai took a closer look, "I think he looks a bit like you when you were practicing dancing and doing basic skills."

Mrs. Bai let out a chuckle, then turned her head to look at her son, still wondering how she and Bai Yuanzhi, two well-educated schoolmasters, could give birth to a child with such a cheerful personality as Bai Xunguang.
