"Why are you with us again?" Gale asked the woman who was cradling her baby in her lap.
"What?" Wang Li raised an eyebrow. "Do you have a problem with my presence? If so, you shouldn't have agreed to Grandma when she proposed letting me come with you."
Gale grunted and didn't bother to reply. Yes, he had agreed with Wang Li joining them, thinking Xiaolin wouldn't feel alone being the only woman in the vicinity.
"What?" But Wang Li was in the mood to not let it go. She asked, giving a meaningful look, nudging Xiaolin on the shoulder. "Did my presence foil your plan?"
Gale replied with an annoyed expression. "At least, you can help Xiaolin recover quicker with your Life Qi," he said. "I'm going to use you completely and leave you utterly spent, just you watch."
"Uh, that's not a very nice thing to say to a lady."
"Fine, you'll use your entire stay in the kitchen making nutritious, Life Qi-filled meals for us."
