Half an hour later.

"Uh, Yi'er, it's about time, I should head back now!"

Bai Wu suddenly stood up and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Wu clearly noticed that Mu Yi'er, who was sitting at the computer desk with her back to him, suddenly let out a sigh of relief.

Still the same old saying...

There's always tomorrow.

"Bai, Bai Wu, wait a minute!"

Mu Yi'er suddenly stood up, walked over to Bai Wu, her face full of determination and seriousness, "I feel much better..."

"Hmm?" Bai Wu was taken aback, and when he looked at Mu Yi'er, he saw her with her head raised, eyes tightly shut, little delicate fists clenched, looking very nervous.

Mu Yi'er was being so straightforward, how could Bai Wu not understand!

"Phew~" Bai Wu let out a sigh of relief.

He was really scared!

Afraid that Mu Yi'er's parents might suddenly open the door again.

That would be really awkward...

"Wha-what's wrong..."

Mu Yi'er opened her eyes in confusion, following Bai Wu's gaze, and remembered the two previous interruptions.

She suddenly walked to the door, locked it from the inside, then returned to Bai Wu, whispering softly, "This time, there won't be any problems..."

"Yi'er, how can you be so cute!"

And then...

...

In the living room.

Yang Liyin and Mu Jianguo were huddled together, whispering secretly.

"Hey, it's been over half an hour, why is there no sound at all?" Yang Liyin pressed her ear against the door, sighing softly.

"Maybe they were scared by us coming in and out suddenly. Young people, you know, they care about face..." Mu Jianguo explained.

Yang Liyin continued, "Old Mu, stop thinking about those things. We were worried our daughter didn't like men before, and now she's finally found someone she likes. The sooner they confirm their relationship, the better, to avoid any trouble later!"

"Yeah, you're right!" Mu Jianguo nodded.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey!"

Yang Liyin's face suddenly lit up with joy, exclaiming, "They locked the door, finally locked the door!"

"Really!?" Mu Jianguo's face was full of joy.

"No, I still feel a bit uneasy!"

Yang Liyin frowned, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Old Mu, go sprinkle some water on the beds in the guest rooms, a lot, and wet the sofa too! I'll go wet Bai Wu's shoes!"

"Good idea!" Mu Jianguo raised an eyebrow.

Then, the couple began to act separately.

Inside the room.

"Yi'er, how do you feel?" Bai Wu asked softly.

"I, I..." Mu Yi'er, "still feel a bit uncomfortable, but I can overcome it, much better than before..."

Mu Yi'er said firmly, "I will work hard to overcome it!"

"I'll help you overcome it!" Bai Wu said gently.

"Phew... phew... I feel, I feel much better." Mu Yi'er said, clenching her little delicate fists.

Bai Wu smiled slightly, lowered his head, and gently tapped her forehead, saying softly, "Yi'er, you should rest early, I'll head back now!"

"Mm, mm..."

Mu Yi'er got up, "I'll see you off!"

After tidying up their clothes, the two came to the door.

They exchanged a glance.

Bai Wu took the initiative to hold Mu Yi'er's hand, interlocking their fingers.

Mu Yi'er stiffened at first, but after two or three seconds, she tightly grasped Bai Wu's hand.

"Let's go out!"

"Okay!"

Hand in hand, they walked out of Mu Yi'er's room.

And then.

They met the bright eyes of Yang Liyin and Mu Jianguo.

"Uncle, Auntie, it's getting late, I should head home!" Bai Wu greeted them.

"What uncle and auntie, so distant, just call us mom and dad!" Yang Liyin said.

"Yes, Bai Wu, you can call us the same as Yi'er does!" Mu Jianguo agreed with a smile.

"Mom~~! Dad~~!" Mu Yi'er's face turned red, and she called out softly.

Yang Liyin and Mu Jianguo both ignored Mu Yi'er.

"Xiao Wu, why are you leaving so early? Why not stay a bit longer?" Yang Liyin asked.

"No, it's late at night..."

Before Bai Wu could finish, Yang Liyin suddenly slapped her forehead, exclaiming exaggeratedly, "Ah! I just remembered, Xiao Wu, when I was making soup earlier, I accidentally spilled some on your shoes, so I soaked them in the sink!"

Bai Wu: "..."

Mu Yi'er: "..."
