"Dad, Mom, I'm home!"
Gu Zhao pushed open the front door to see his father, Gu Qi, and mother, Li Man, sitting cozily together watching TV.
Gu Zhao covered his eyes. "Am I interrupting something?"
Gu Qi turned around and said irritably, "We're watching the national news!"
Li Man, however, stood up and glanced behind Gu Zhao. "You really didn't bring a 'temporary' girlfriend home?"
"Didn't I promise I'd go with you to Shu Province?" Gu Zhao replied. "I was planning on finding a girlfriend there."
"Absolutely not!" Li Man immediately refused. "The girls in Yue Province are better. No need to look far and wide when the best is right here."
Gu Qi nodded in agreement. "Def..."
He had just gotten one word out when he saw Li Man turn her head, so he quickly changed the subject. "Ahem, have you eaten yet?"
"If I said I haven't, is there anything at home?" Gu Zhao asked.
