"Dad wants us to go back to the Xu family." Xu Qinghe turned towards Ji Ying, whose eyes were too tired to open, and he felt wide awake.
Lately, Xu Qinghe had thought over and over about this matter.
"Oh."
Ji Ying responded casually, and the next moment, she opened her eyes, the sleepiness in her eyes completely vanished.
"What did you just say?" Ji Ying turned to face Xu Qinghe, and the moonlight coming through the window made it possible to see each other's faces clearly.
"I, Dad wants us to go back to the Xu family, what do you, what do you think?" Xu Qinghe said in a lowered voice.
"I don't want to go back," Ji Ying replied without hesitation, "Even though we live in an old house that's draughty and the roof leaks, our family of five is together, and we are free."
Freedom, yes, no in-laws above us, no scheming sisters-in-law either.
Although it's not as comfortable as a new house, it's heartwarming to live here.
