Xibao remained unmoved, her back turned and motionless—she just wanted her mommy.
"Xibao, come out and have dinner with your brothers, okay? After dinner, Sister Xue will buy you chocolate," Li Xue tempted Xibao with her favorite chocolate.
Xibao still didn't budge.
Li Xue hadn't expected that even chocolate couldn't coax Xibao anymore.
What to do? Surely, she can't just let her stay under the table forever, right?
Li Xue thought for a moment, got up to fetch her phone, and opened the photos inside.
There was one of her and Tang Yu taken alone during a visit to the zoo.
"Xibao, look who this is. Is it mommy?" Li Xue continued to crouch at the side of the table, holding up the phone.
When Xibao heard 'mommy,' her ears twitched, she turned around, saw her mommy in the phone, and her eyes lit up, "Mommy!"
"Come on, come out, the phone is yours."
Only then was Xibao willing to come out from under the table, and she had to hold the phone while eating dinner afterward.
