On a sunny morning, Ye Chen and Su Xiyue finished breakfast and lounged on the couch watching the morning news, while Su Xiaozhu chattered away beside Su Xiyue.
Finally, the long-awaited weekend arrived, and Su Xiyue relaxed a bit, chatting with Su Xiaozhu half-heartedly.
Just then, Ye Chen's phone suddenly rang. He answered, murmured a few affirmations, and then hung up.
"Xiyue, my parents are coming back to Zhonghai this afternoon, and my mom asked us to come home at three."
Ye Chen lay on the couch, looking at Su Xiyue with a smile as he spoke.
"Mhm."
Su Xiyue instinctively hummed a reply, then came back to her senses, sat up straight, and said with an unnatural expression to Ye Chen, "Your uncle and aunt are coming back? So suddenly?"
"It's not that sudden. Didn't I tell you before that my parents would be coming back soon?"
Ye Chen replied with a smile.
Su Xiyue's cheeks turned a shade of red, and a flash of panic crossed her eyes.
