Su Yue blushed even harder. She mumbled, "Uncle Ming, you're so annoying."
Ming Ansheng frowned in confusion. "How am I annoying?"
"You actually called me 'darling'," Su Yue explained in a soft voice that is almost a whisper.

Su Yue nodded unabashedly and lifted her head to look at him. She warned, "But you can't call me that in front of others."
Ming Ansheng nodded and agreed. "It's not meant to be heard by others."
Su Yue blinked.
Ming Ansheng said, "Let's eat."
