Before long, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiao Wu, Yi'er, are you asleep?" Yang Liyin's voice came from outside the door.

"Mom, we're not asleep yet, what's up?" Mu Yi'er asked.

"Is it convenient for me to come in?"

"Come on in!"

Then, the door opened.

Yang Liyin and Mu Jianguo walked in one after the other.

Mu Jianguo was holding a ceramic pot, while Yang Liyin had a set of bowls, chopsticks, and a soup spoon.

The elderly couple swiftly placed the pot and utensils on the table, then glanced at Bai Wu and Mu Yi'er, who were sitting on the edge of the bed holding hands.

Their eyes lit up simultaneously, and they smiled with delight.

"Xiao Wu, this is goji berry, black chicken, and red date nourishing soup I made for you. Have a couple of sips before bed; it's very good for you!"

Yang Liyin continued, "Alright, alright, we won't disturb you young folks' night anymore. Old Mu, let's go!"

"Oh, oh!"

Mu Jianguo raised his eyebrows at Bai Wu and followed Yang Liyin out of the bedroom.

"Dad~~~!!!" Mu Yi'er's face turned red as she glared angrily.

But what greeted her was a "bang."

The door closed.

The room fell silent once more.

"Ahem!"

After a brief silence, Bai Wu suddenly coughed twice, breaking the quiet. "Yi'er, I have a very serious question."

"Hmm?" Mu Yi'er looked puzzled.

"Are you really their biological daughter?" Bai Wu asked seriously.

Even though his supernatural ability assured him that Mu Yi'er was indeed their biological daughter, Bai Wu couldn't help but ask.

Because from the way Yang Liyin and Mu Jianguo acted, Mu Yi'er really didn't seem like their biological child!

"Bai Wu, are you looking to die?" Mu Yi'er glared at him, annoyed.

"Hahaha, just kidding, just kidding..."

Bai Wu waved his hand and laughed. "But seriously, Auntie's cooking is really something. Just the smell is making my mouth water! What do you think, Yi'er?"

"If you want to eat, eat it yourself. I'm not hungry. This was made especially for you, and I don't want any. Plus, I don't think it smells good at all!" Mu Yi'er turned her head and huffed.

"Why do I feel a bit of jealousy here? Could it be that Mu Yi'er is jealous?"

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a percentage appeared above Mu Yi'er's head: 100%!

"She really is jealous!"

Bai Wu was taken aback.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and eat, then go to bed early. I'm warning you, don't try anything funny tonight!"

Mu Yi'er said as she hugged a pink stuffed toy about her size and placed it in the middle of the bed. "Don't cross over this toy tonight!"

"Yi'er, don't worry. Until you're completely comfortable, I won't do anything inappropriate, I swear!"

Bai Wu said, then scooped a spoonful of the black chicken soup, took a deep breath, and sighed, "Yi'er, are you sure you don't want to try some? It smells amazing!"

"I'm not eating! I'm not hungry at all right now!"

Mu Yi'er said with a straight face.

"Grumble grumble grumble..."

A strange sound came from her stomach.

"Yi'er, are you sure you're not hungry at all?" Bai Wu repeated in a teasing voice.

"Not hungry means not hungry! I'm not eating any of this soup, not a single sip!" Mu Yi'er firmly added, "And after seven in the evening, I don't eat anything. I have principles!"

"Grumble grumble grumble..." Her stomach growled again.

Bai Wu's expression grew more peculiar.

Mu Yi'er's face flushed slightly as she glared at Bai Wu, "What are you looking at? Drink your goji berry, black chicken, and red date soup, I'm going!"

Mu Yi'er said, quickly climbing off the bed and darting into the next room.

But soon, she rushed back out in a hurry.

She grabbed a change of clothes from the wardrobe and dashed back in.

Bai Wu shook his head, scooped a bowl of soup, and began to enjoy it.

Half an hour later.

"Burp~"

Bai Wu had drunk nearly half the pot of chicken soup and finished the last skewer of chives, letting out a satisfied burp as he lay comfortably on the bed.

At this moment.

The sound of a door opening came from the bathroom next door.

Bai Wu looked up to see Mu Yi'er cautiously stepping out.

She looked as fresh as a lotus in clear water!

Bai Wu's eyes lit up, and he was momentarily stunned.

Mu Yi'er's face turned red.

"Oh, oh, got it!" Bai Wu snapped back to reality, but his face was still filled with amazement as he quickly walked into the bathroom.

As soon as Bai Wu stepped in, Mu Yi'er let out a long sigh of relief.

Then, after waiting for a dozen seconds, when she heard the sound of water running, Mu Yi'er suddenly swallowed and walked over to the ceramic pot.

There was only one set of bowls and chopsticks on the table.

Mu Yi'er hesitated for a moment, then picked up the bowl and chopsticks, scooped some chicken soup, and tore off a couple of pieces of chicken.

She took a bite!

Her face was full of enjoyment and satisfaction!

"So delicious~~~" Mu Yi'er murmured softly.

"By the way, Yi'er, are you sure you don't want to try Auntie's soup? The taste is really..."

At this moment, Bai Wu suddenly poked his head out from the bathroom, but as he spoke, he noticed Mu Yi'er holding a bowl and drinking the soup.

Mu Yi'er froze: "..."
