The next day
The whole family was having breakfast with an additional guest sitting by the table. The atmosphere was not as merry as it used to be.
On the other hand, Xue Li was the only one with smiles. She would be sending food on other's plates except Mi Rong's.
"Qing-er, here's a piece of soup dumpling."
"Grandma, here's some roasted duck." And "Jun Kai, here's your favourite fried noodles."
Mi Rong was quietly eating her own food away. However, at times she would start coughing as she was trying her best to hold in her laughter. "Rong jie, are you alright?" Qing Qing, on the other hand, became worried for Mi Rong as she thought her jie had choked on her food.
Jun Kai also looked up when he heard his daughter asking Mi Rong. He looked for signs of her being sick, but he couldn't find any.
Strange
"Jun Kai, have some of this." But before he turned away, he could see the corners of her lips raised slightly.
