Just then, the sound of an incoming call on a mobile phone pierced the air.
Seeing the remark on the caller ID, Qi Huai's mouth curled into a gentle smile. She reached out to slide to answer, "Hello, Lili."
"Mom, have you arrived at the office?" came Mu Qingli's voice from the other end.
"Mmm, I've already arrived at the office. Don't you have shooting today, Lili?" Qi Huai continued.
"I'm on set, it's lunch break right now. Oh, by the way, Mom, Uncle Qi has prepared dinner, so remember to come over early tonight."
"Okay."
The mother and daughter chatted casually for a while longer until a voice came through, reminding Mu Qingli to get on set, and they hung up.
After hanging up, Qi Huai leaned back in her chair and let out a deep sigh.

She was sitting in the living room chatting with Fu Lanshen about something.
As Mu Qingli walked over, she gave Qi Huai a big hug, "Mom."
