As soon as Zhou Chao entered the courtyard, he heard lively voices coming from the inner room.
"What kind of dumplings did you make? They're not even as good as mine!"
"Brother, your dumplings are considered good? Look at Xiaoli's, those are the real deal!"
"Alright, stop arguing, the dumplings are almost done. Big brother, take them to the kitchen and check if the dishes are ready too," Jiang Li intervened, putting an end to their dispute.
Listening to the banter between Xiao Yang, Xiao Feng, and Jiang Li's voice, Zhou Chao walked in with a smile.
"I came early today, I hope there's a portion of dumplings left for me!"
"Honey / Second Brother!" Jiang Li and Xiao Feng exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Li quickly ran towards Zhou Chao, who opened his arms to embrace her, and they indulged in their affectionate moment, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.
