"I have something important to do."
To avoid her mom's worry and nagging, Mai Xiaomai lied, "I have to go."
"You should go with him."
Mai's mom criticized, "I ask you, is your job more important or your husband? How can you choose to go to work instead of accompanying him? If something happens, you'll regret it."
"Someone's with him, nothing will happen."
Mai Xiaomai replied.
"Sigh, I won't bother with you two anymore. Every time I bring it up, you seem so impatient."
Mai's mom looked at Xiaoshun again, "Do you really want to be this kid's stepmom?"
"He's Chutian's child, so he's my child. Don't say much about it anymore. Don't think that just because he's young, you can say whatever you want. He'll feel it."
Mai Xiaomai reached out to play with Xiaoshun.
Xiaoshun's little hand touched hers, his face full of joy.
"Alright, alright, then I'll be this cheap grandma."
Mai's mom helplessly entered the kitchen and continued to busy herself.
