"Why is that?"
Xia Ruqing pushed the chilled honeydew melon in front of her.
Yue Er ate a piece, stayed silent for a long while, and then shook her head.
"Mother, it's nothing!"
"Maybe it's too hot today, I might have a heatstroke!"
Xia Ruqing twitched her lips.
Thinking, my daughter! With you having a heatstroke? You've been training tirelessly under the sun for years, how could you get a heatstroke?
As they say, no one knows a daughter better than her mother; Yue Er must've encountered something.
But... what could she have come across?
Curiosity, speculation, confusion, bewilderment.
…
Yue Er sat for a while, ate some snacks, and then left.
The evening meal was shared between Zhao Junyao and her.
After dinner, Xia Ruqing recounted Yue Er's situation for the day.
Zhao Junyao stroked his half-inch-long beard and said lightly.
"Girls get older, having these thoughts is normal!"
"Counting the years, she's already sixteen. It's time to arrange a marriage!"
