Super Soldier in the City

Li Yifei was most worried about Ning Xin’er and Xu Yingying clashing, but today it seemed no such thing had happened. Although the two weren’t particularly friendly, they maintained a good front, especially in front of their daughter, where both behaved especially well and didn’t want to leave a bad impression on Little Yifei.

It was well past eight o’clock and Little Yifei should have been getting ready for bed, but Ning Xin’er had yet to suggest leaving. Xu Yingying found it inconvenient to say anything, but Xu Shanshan didn’t care for such formalities, saying, "Yifei, it’s getting late. We should take a bath and go to bed."

There were many people around today, and Little Yifei had a lot of fun, but she was still very obedient and agreed immediately.

Ning Xin’er quickly said, "Let me help Yifei with her bath."

Xu Shanshan said cheerfully, "No need, I can do it by myself."

Although Ning Xin’er clearly heard Xu Shanshan’s refusal, she still said with a smile, "It wouldn’t hurt to have an extra person, and I find it quite fun to bathe Little Yifei."

Li Yifei shook his head slightly. Ning Xin’er was now quite different from her former self in Beijing. She used to have a quick temper, ready to ignite at the slightest spark. If anyone had refused her like that, she would have flared up long ago, but now she could keep a calm face and smile, clearly much more mature than before.

Such a Ning Xin’er might not be as much of a headache for Li Yifei as before, but she was now more difficult to deal with. Before, she was at most a simple-minded tomboy, but now she had become a capable woman whose mentality had greatly improved.

In the end, it was Xu Yingying and Ning Xin’er who bathed Little Yifei together, and Xu Shanshan, puffing up with annoyance, sat down next to Li Yifei and said, "Brother-in-law, Ning Xin’er’s got a thick skin. I made it pretty clear, yet she’s still here."

Li Yifei cleared his throat. He couldn’t really criticize Ning Xin’er, and what she was doing was reasonable after all, considering Little Yifei was her daughter.
