Xiao's mother was dissatisfied with Meng Xiao's family conditions and was a bit upset that her son had kept it from her, shooting him a glare.

Seeing the tension, Xiao's father quickly forced a smile and said, "Your mother and I have the day off, so we thought we'd come for a visit.

Your mother and I will walk there, it can count as taking a stroll."

Xiao Yansheng nodded, then asked Meng Xiao how she would get home.
