"Xiaotang, why is it you?" She descended the stairs, in a state of surprise.
Upon gaining her composure, Hai Xiaotang quickly stood up. "Mom, why are you awake?"
He Meilian, clad in a silky white nightdress, with her flowing curls cascading over her shoulders, looked even more tranquil and graceful without makeup.
Walking over to sit down, He Meilian chuckled lightly, "I heard some noise downstairs and thought Yuyu had come back, but it turns out it was you."
Hai Xiaotang detected the longing she had for Dongfang Yu from her words.
Just like her, she was thinking about Dongfang Yu at all times….
Hai Xiaotang also responded with a smile, "Same here, I was under the illusion that Dongfang Yu had returned. So, I came down to check. But it was merely my hallucination."
"I frequently have these kinds of illusions too," said He Meilian in a light tone, "But Yuyu's father always brings me back to reality. Oh, why is he always so rational?"
