The next day.
Early in the morning, Ji Yebai got himself ready and pulled Ning Xixi out of bed.
"Wake up, we have class today."
"Hmm..." Ning Xixi, with sleepy eyes, washed up and ate the hearty breakfast prepared by Ji's mom. She handed Ning Xixi two lunch boxes, "Xixi, this is the love-filled lunch Mom made for you. Make sure to eat it, okay!"
"Thank you, Mom." Ning Xixi mumbled in response, lazily yawning.
Ji's mom paused for a few seconds, then excitedly hugged Ning Xixi, "My dear Xixi, you finally acknowledged me as your mom! Sob, sob, sob..."
"Um..." Ning Xixi came to her senses and awkwardly said, "Well..."
I called her Mom by mistake.
But the words just couldn't come out.
She didn't want to hurt Ji's mom's feelings.
With a gentle smile, she softly said, "Mom, I'm going to be late for class."
Ji's mom finally let her go, wiping away her moist eyes, "Hurry along now."
