Chapter 462 - 471 The Girl’s Show-off
Li Yifei brought groceries home, and Chu Xiaoyao burst into giggles while Little Yue’s face instantly turned red. When the two girls were together, they would chat without any reservations, but now, as they were talking about a grown man like Li Yifei and saw him come in, Little Yue couldn’t help but blush.
Li Yifei had no idea that the girls had just been discussing such a topic and laughed, "What are you chatting about? Seems like you’re having lots of fun."
"Uncle, Xiaoyao and I just made a bet, and we bet that..." Chu Xiaoyao immediately began excitedly, but before she could finish, Little Yue hurriedly interrupted, "We were just kidding," and then dragged Chu Xiaoyao aside.
"Little Yue, what’s up? Are you admitting defeat already?"
"I..." Little Yue stiffened, ready to say something defiant, but upon glancing at Li Yifei, her courage drained away instantly. Pouting, she said, "Fine, I admit defeat."
"Haha...then hurry up and bark like a dog," Chu Xiaoyao said with a smug shake of her head.
"I can bark, but you can’t tell anyone about our bet," Little Yue bargained.
"Alright, I know," Chu Xiaoyao giggled, seemingly making the promise without much sincerity.
With Chu Xiaoyao’s urging, Little Yue finally barked three times. Her voice was crisp, and even her attempt at barking sounded quite pleasant. Li Yifei wasn’t interested in the girls’ bet, as long as Chu Xiaoyao was happy, cheerful, and no longer that sad, that was all that mattered.
It was getting late, and Li Yifei started cooking dinner. Before long, the aroma of the food wafted out from the kitchen. Little Yue had not expected much from Li Yifei’s culinary skills, but now, smelling the fragrance, she couldn’t help but express her surprise, "Xiaoyao, your uncle seems to really know his way around cooking, huh?"
