Meng Linlang replied unhappily, "We have a guest, so of course, I must cook a few dishes to show my sincerity!"
"Yes, we have a guest. At least, she knows that you want to thank her, or else, she'd think you want to repay with revenge!" Zhuang Rongguang mumbled.
Meng Linlang immediately shot him a look. Even though she was angry, there was still love in her eyes. "You brat!"
Keer leaned into Ning Xi's ears and laughed as she explained, "My mother's not great at cooking..."
"Ahh..." There was indistinct envy in Ning Xi's eyes as she watched at the interaction between Madam Zhuang and her children.
"Xiao Xi, have fun with Keer and Rongguang for a while. Dinner will be ready soon!"
"Okay, don't worry about me!"
...
Moments later, dinner was ready.
On the roundtable, the Zhuang family was gathered at an unusual occasion.
Zhuang Liaoyuan picked up his wine glass and stood up first. "Xiao Xi, a toast to you!"
