Cubilose

At that moment, Fang Yuan descended the staircase. Qiao Xinhui beamed at her daughter, "Yuanyuan, you're here. Come and sit beside me."

"Sister, this bowl of cubilosesoup is for you," Cheng Yuqi said, personally serving a bowl for Fang Yuan before serving herself.

"Yuqi is so considerate and treats me so well," Qiao Xinhui remarked, gazing affectionately at Fang Yuan. "Yuanyuan, please, enjoy it while it's still hot."

Fang Yuan took her seat, picked up her spoon, and scooped a mouthful of the soup. As she brought it to her mouth, she detected a familiar scent. Was that the aroma of hemp seed, a Chinese medicine used for constipation? There was also the scent of croton cream. Fang Yuan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Was Cheng Yuqi attempting to give her an upset stomach?

Glancing up, Fang Yuan observed Cheng Yuqi and Auntie Wang surreptitiously sizing her up. When their eyes met, they hastily averted their gaze in panic.
