Chapter 858 - 860 Sad Events
"Auntie, you’re being too kind. Tang Rong usually takes care of me in my everyday life. But don’t worry, Auntie, I’ll definitely take good care of Tang Rong." Xiao Yifei said humbly.
Tang Rong listened for a while beside them, and the more she listened, the more it felt off. The conversation sounded oddly like a mother-in-law giving instructions to her new son-in-law.
So she interrupted their conversation: "Mom, didn’t we say we’re going out to eat? Let’s hurry up and get ready, or else it’ll be mealtime and there will be too many people."
Then the four of them gathered their things and went out. As they walked down the street, Xiao Yifei supported Tang Rong’s mother, and from behind, it was such a harmonious scene, like a son supporting his mother. Tang Rong suddenly realized that Xiao Yifei had never talked about his parents.
All she knew was that Xiao Yifei had a grandfather who was also a practitioner of Chinese Medicine, but he had passed away over a year ago. She didn’t know anything about Xiao Yifei’s parents and had never asked. These kinds of questions are always a bit awkward to bring up.
The four of them had a great time eating together. Then Tang Rong’s mother said, "You three go ahead and wander around on your own. I have to prepare to go home; I still need to feed Pineapple!" Pineapple was the dog Tang Rong’s mother owned.
"Auntie, would you like me to take you home? It’s quite far from here to your house, isn’t it?" Xiao Yifei asked.
"It’s fine, don’t worry about me. I’ve been living in this city for so many years. You just have fun; it’s not often you get a holiday." Tang Rong’s mother declined, choosing to leave time for the young ones. If she stayed, they wouldn’t have as much fun.
