"Good. Very good."
"I can tell she's a very down-to-earth woman."
Huo Mien sat down on the sofa and picked up an apple to chew on.
"Mom … She's been through a lot. Her adoptive father died early and she had to take care of me and my brother. She also had to bear the name of Huo Zhenghai's mistress."
"It's all in the past. She's living a good life now."
The two sisters discussed Yang Meirong in low voices.
In the kitchen, she was busy making dumplings for the two kids.
Soon, the white dumplings were in the pot.
"It's cooked. We'll be able to eat in a while. Are you two hungry?"
"No, I'm fine." Lu Yan chuckled.
"Mom, I'm starving," Huo Mien said naughtily.
"Of course you're hungry. You have to take care of your body and eat two servings each. You can't starve my grandson …"
"Mom, is Zhixin still at work?" Huo Mien asked casually.
"He's off work. He drove to the countryside with Bella. He said Bella's grandfather is critically ill."
"Oh, I see …"
"Okay. Sit down and eat some oranges. I bought them in the morning market. They're very fresh."
Yang Meirong didn't remember Lu Yan's name, but she was very enthusiastic and kept asking Lu Yan to eat fruits.
"Okay. Thank you, Auntie."
Lu Yan didn't refuse and sat down on the sofa with Huo Mien to watch TV.
Soon, the dumplings were ready. Yang Meirong brought in three plates of steaming dumplings.
She also mixed some delicious side dishes.
Perhaps it was because the dumplings were so delicious and homey that she felt warm.
Lu Yan ate a plate of 20 dumplings in one sitting.
Finally, she burped in satisfaction.
"Auntie, I like noodles. I like dumplings, blunt noodles, and handmade noodles. I've eaten many dumplings over the years, but none of them are as good as yours."
"If you like them, come often. I'll make them for you. It's no trouble. Next time, I'll make pork with pickled vegetables and round onion and beef. They're all delicious."
Hearing the girl's praise, Yang Meirong was very happy.
Huo Mien also ate a lot. Then the two sisters drove back to South Hill Manor.
"Sis, I'm going to take a shower."
"Alright."
After a while, Lu Yan yelled from the bathroom, "Sis, get me a bottle of shampoo. There's none left."
"Alright."
Huo Mien hurried to the storage room to get a bottle of shampoo. He opened the door, walked in, and handed it to Lu Yan.
Then, her gaze paused for a moment … as if something was spreading in her heart.
"What are you waiting for?" Lu Yan turned around.
"No, this is the first time I see you naked. Your chest is as flat as mine." Huo Mien deliberately teased her.
"Hahaha, Dr. Huo, you're so evil …"
Amused, Lu Yan giggled.
Huo Mien walked out and closed the door for Lu Yan.
She slowly walked into the study alone with heavy steps …
Qin Chu walked upstairs from downstairs and saw that Huo Mien's expression was not right.
Thus, he hurried over to take a look.
Sure enough, the moment the door of the study was pushed open.
Qin Chu was stunned.
Huo Mien sat in the chair with tears all over her face.
"Honey, close the door." Perhaps afraid that her family would see her crying, Huo Mien asked Qin Chu to close the door.
"What happened? Who bullied our Vice Director Huo? "
Heartbroken, Qin Chu walked over and hugged Huo Mien.
Huo Mien leaned her head against Qin Chu's chest. She cried until Qin Chu's black shirt was soaked through.
"What's wrong?" Qin Chu reached out and gently stroked her hair.
"Honey, I just went to bring Yan shampoo. She's taking a shower inside."
"Okay, and then?"
Qin Chu thought that Huo Mien must have seen something. Otherwise, she wouldn't have cried like this.
