Zhao Zhuhua looked at her disapprovingly, his mouth moved slightly but he said nothing, reaching out to take Ya Ya's offered hand.
"Ya Ya, come, help Grandpa water the flowers."
The little girl looked worriedly at her mother, Mu Xi patted her head, giving her a reassuring smile.
"Good girl, Mommy will go see if Grandma needs help with anything."
Ya Ya, familiar with the routine, ran to get the special elephant watering can. Mu Xi stood there watching her for a moment before turning around to enter the inner rooms.
At the entrance, she changed her shoes, faintly hearing Mu Nianshan's laughter and conversation with an unfamiliar man.
A man in his thirties, about the same age as Yang Sheng?
The unconscious thought of using Yang Sheng as a reference startled Mu Xi.
Taking a long breath, she tidied her hair, stepped out of the entryway, and walked into the living room.
"Xiao Xi, you're back."
As soon as Mu Nianshan saw her, she stood up with a smile and came over to greet her.
