"What made you come over?" Li's mother asked her.
Li Mingxi smiled and said, "This is my home. Can't I come back?"
Grandma Li teased with a laugh, "This girl came back to mooch a meal."
It was just about lunchtime, and Li Mingxi really came back to mooch a meal.
"Grandma, you know me well."
Grandma Li and the others chuckled and then started chatting with her about other things. As they talked, the topic shifted to having kids.
"You and Xiao Lang have been married for so long. Aren't you pregnant yet?" Li's mother asked her.
Li Mingxi smiled and said, "Getting pregnant is about fate; it's best to let nature take its course."
"That's true, but you should hurry. Having kids late in life is risky."
"I got it."
Li's mother didn't want to put too much pressure on her, so she dropped the subject.
...
Soon it was lunchtime. After eating, Li Mingxi felt drowsy.
Lately, she's been very tired. Fatigue accumulates to a certain point and then it explodes.
