Today was the first day of moving to a new house, so they still had to celebrate. The three of them went to buy a bunch of vegetables. At around four in the afternoon, they made a table full of dishes.
During the meal, Auntie Ning couldnât help but sigh for a while.
âI really didnât expect to be able to live in such a big house in my life. Xiaofei, I really donât know how to thank you.â
Ye Xiaofei hurriedly said, âAuntie, youâre treating me like an outsider again.
How can a family always thank each other?â
âMom, Brother Xiaofei is right,â Ning Xiaoyu immediately said.
Auntie Ning laughed and uttered, âOkay, then Iâll stop. Iâm just too happy.
Xiaofei, you must come home more often in the future.â
âNo problem. Wherever you are, thatâs my home,â Ye Xiaofei responded.
âBrother Xiaofei, eat this.â Ning Xiaoyu picked up a piece of braised ribs and brought it to Ye Xiaofeiâs mouth.
Ye Xiaofei opened his mouth and bit the rib off Ning Xiaoyuâs fork.
Ning Xiaoyu smiled as she watched Ye Xiaofei eat. Then, she put away her fork and gently brought it to her mouth, smacking her lips.
Her eyes narrowed into slits as if she was savoring the taste of the fork.
A faint smile appeared on Auntie Ningâs face, and her gaze was meaningful.
No one knew a girl better than her mother. Her daughterâs heart was obviously completely with Ye Xiaofei.
However, Ye Xiaofei was so capable now, and his future was limitless. Auntie Ning was afraid her daughter would not be able to capture Ye Xiaofeiâs heart.
Ning Xiaoyu felt her motherâs strange gaze, and her face turned red. She quickly lowered her head and ate, not daring to look at her mother again.
After dinner, Auntie Ning did not have Ye Xiaofei and Ning Xiaoyu help her. She went to the kitchen to clean up.
Ye Xiaofei and Ning Xiaoyu sat on the couch, while Ning Xiaoyu studied the smart TV with a large screen. It was as if she had discovered a new continent and was having a good time.
She had just found a game and was about to play it with Ye Xiaofei when Ye Xiaofeiâs phone rang.
Seeing that it was Fang Yunshu calling, Ye Xiaofei immediately picked up the call. A bone-numbing âDaddyâ rang in his ears.
He couldnât help but smile. âMy precious daughter, whatâs the matter?â
Fang Lingâerâs crisp voice came from the other end of the phone. âDaddy, come over today. I want to eat your cooking. Mommyâs cooking doesnât taste good.â
Ye Xiaofei lowered his voice and asked, âYour mother wants me to go?â
Fang Lingâer lowered her voice, âMommy didnât, but she didnât say anything when I called you.â
The smile on Ye Xiaofeiâs face grew even brighter as he said, âThen Iâll go over now.â
âAll right. Weâll be waiting for you.â
After hanging up the phone, Ye Xiaofei met Ning Xiaoyuâs resentful gaze.
âBrother Xiaofei, you⦠You already have a daughter?â
Ye Xiaofei smiled and said, âHaha, Iâm so young. How could I already have a daughter? Sheâs my goddaughter. Sheâs very cute. Iâll introduce you when I have the chance. Youâll definitely like her.â
âWhat? Goddaughter?â Ning Xiaoyuâs expression became strange before she raised her brows in joy. Ning Xiaoyu said angrily, âYou scared me to death. I thought you were married and had a daughter.â
âHah, Iâm not that stupid. You havenât even graduated from university, so I wonât get married.â
What Ye Xiaofei meant was that when Ning Xiaoyu graduated from university, he would be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old by then. It was the ripe age to start considering marriage.
However, when Ning Xiaoyu heard Ye Xiaofeiâs words, she interpreted otherwise.
She thought that Ye Xiaofei was waiting for her to graduate from university.
The little girlâs heart instantly lept. Her face was flushed red like a cooked crab. There was only one thought in her mind. âWhen I graduate from university, Brother Xiaofei wants to marry me. Brother Xiaofei wants to marry me!â
As for when Ye Xiaofei left, Ning Xiaoyu did not realize.
âWhatâs wrong? Why are you in a daze? Why is your face so red?â Auntie Ning walked out and looked at Ning Xiaoyu in confusion.
Ning Xiaoyu covered her face with her hands and was tongue-tied.
When Auntie Ning saw her daughterâs shy look, she instantly thought of the only possibility. What did Ye Xiaofei do to Ning Xiaoyu just now?
Otherwise, her daughter would not be so embarrassed.
Ye Xiaofei didnât know that his words had caused such a big misunderstanding. He had already arrived at Fang Yunshuâs house happily.
Fang Yunshuâs humming came from the kitchen.
Ye Xiaofei picked up Fang Lingâer and whispered, âYour mother is in a good mood today.â
Fang Lingâer nodded her head vigorously and said, âYes, Mommy is very happy today.â
Ye Xiaofei walked to the kitchen door and saw Fang Yunshu washing the vegetables. Her body was still swaying slightly, and she seemed very relaxed.
Ye Xiaofei couldnât help but be stunned.
When Fang Yunshu turned her head and saw Ye Xiaofei, the smile on her face didnât disappear. Instead, Fang Yunshu just wiped her hands and said, âIâll leave the rest to you.â
âAll right!â Ye Xiaofei happily agreed, and there was an indescribable joy in his heart..
