Yan Luoxi was happily "kidnapped" and got into the car with Xue Shuying, and though she knew she might run into Li Youran, whose pretentious behavior could be upsetting, she didn't want to disappoint such a wonderful mother-in-law.
Gu Qian stood by the roadside, watching the black Volkswagen vanish into the distance. She envied Sister Luoxi; she and Mother Li seemed as close as a real mother and daughter, how wonderful!
In the car, Xue Shuying held Yan Luoxi's hand and scrutinized her from top to bottom. "You seem to have lost some weight, but your complexion is rosier and you look much more spirited than the last time I saw you. Now I can rest assured," she said.
Yan Luoxi felt a bit embarrassed being looked at like that. She said, "I just weighed myself this morning, and I'm actually two pounds heavier than before."
"Two pounds? That's nothing. You are so thin; when can I expect to hold a grandson?" Xue Shuying expressed her concern with a worried face.
