I could hear Aunt Lan opening the fridge.
I could also hear Mom talking with Aunt Lan.
Fearing they would walk out of the kitchen at any moment, Ye Li felt both embarrassed and angry.
Meeting the man's teasing gaze head-on, Ye Li bit her teeth in anger and, lowering her head, bit him on the side of his neck.
Hisss...
Drawing in a cool breath and facing the girl's huffy look, Fu Yanci quirked his lips, "Ah Li, this is the price of not coming home!"
???
Ye Li was taken aback.
The man laughed and hugged her tight, "Haven't you heard that people only think about what they lack, constantly?"
If I've had enough hugs and kisses, won't I stop acting this way?
She understood what Fu Yanci meant.
Ye Li: ...!!!
"Ah Li..."
The call rose from the kitchen, and Fu Yanci let go swiftly.
Ye Li sprang up.
But Li Xueqing did not appear, only her voice came from afar, "Bring over the fruit plate; if you're hungry, have a few bites first, dinner will be ready soon."
"Coming!"
