A boastful conversation suddenly had Yang Shaoqing filled with joy, and he intimately wrapped his arm around Fang Huai's, giving him no chance to back out before bouncing into the house with him in tow.
"You said it yourself! You greet my parents, and then you tell them you want to take me out to have fun, to rescue this princess from the castle! I don't want to dine with them; I want to go eat hot pot!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Huai was so nervous that he almost broke into a cold sweat.
"No, no, no, don't panic! I think that's not very appropriate. Our status is different now, we can't be as thoughtless as when we were kids, I need to show them enough respect! Respect!"
"Forget respect! No need for that! We need to respect hot pot!"
Then, giddy with excitement, he ran inside shouting:
"Dad, Fang Huai is here, and he wants to take me out for hot pot!"
