'I never thought a male as endearingly dense and slow on the uptake as Xu Chi could be such a rambler.'
'All his thoughts were about being affectionate with her. No wonder it made Little Hong blush like an apple. Shameless…'
Si Shuo pinched his cheek and pulled him toward the room. "Come on, let's go inside and talk for a bit."
She turned her head to look at Little Hong, who was covering its eyes with its chubby paws but peeking at them through the gaps in its fingers. Smiling, she playfully wagged a finger at the little one from a distance. "No eavesdropping, or I'm telling your father on you!"
Little Hong froze. 'How could Mother do this? I don't even have to think about it, Father will definitely take her side. The two of them ganging up on their own cub—real mature of them.'
"I'm not listening! I'm not! It's just that Uncle Xu Chi was too excited before, it was like he was shouting right in my ear. Now that he's calmed down, his voice won't be pouring into my ears anymore."
