"Mom, I'm helping tidy up the room."
"Yes, yes, it hasn't been cleaned for several days, there's a lot to tidy up, she's fine, don't worry."
"I won't be home for dinner, you all eat first, don't worry about us, we'll head back once we're done here."
As soon as he hung up the phone, a pair of tender arms wrapped around his shoulders.
He really didn't need to go home for dinner; someone was already taking care of him.
However, clearly, neither of them was fully satisfied yet.
"Aren't you afraid someone's following me?"
Xue Ning muttered, "If someone comes, I'll pretend I'm drunk."
"Hiding by the door doesn't really look like a place to pretend you're drunk, and besides, you really were drunk."
"Haha, was I? If I was drunk, how could I have found it so precisely?"
...
Xue Ning returning was out of the question.
That night, the two had a little dinner, and Li Yang called home, saying Xue Ning had to attend a meeting at school and would return the next afternoon.
