Mrs Chu took the things in Gu Xiao's hand and threw them to Mr Chu, who was following behind her. Then, she held Gu Xiao's hand and they walked into the living room.

Their voices gradually faded away, leaving Chu An and Mr Chu standing on the spot, looking at each other.

After taking out the things in Chu An's hands, Mr Chu couldn't help but say, "You could have just come back. Why are you buying these things? We don't lack anything at home."
