"Oh, so my bachelor son is back!"
Huang Xiuxia said with a look of mock disgust, seeing Gao Yuan standing alone at the door.
He knew perfectly well his mom was taking a jab at him.
"Mom, when is Dad getting back?"
Gao Yuan immediately changed the subject to his father.
"He'll be home tomorrow. I was hoping you two would come back together, but who knew you'd arrive early."
'Changing the subject was indeed the best tactic right now.'
It wasn't a random topic change, either. The most effective diversion was always his dad.
You could say his mom and dad were thick as thieves. They'd been bickering nonstop for the forty years they'd been together, but their affection for each other was still as strong as ever.
This was especially true for his mom, who practically worshipped Gao Yuan's father.
Her most classic line was: "Yes, yes, yes! Your father's right!"
