Yege obediently stepped forward, helping Chu Xici with the bag in his hand, with her eyes twinkling, "Brother, it must be really busy there today, right?"

Chu Xici chuckled, "Yeah, how did you know?"

Yege stuck out her tongue, her smile mischievous.

"Because today is Valentine’s Day, and there must be long lines of people registering for marriage! Am I right?"

Chu Xici nodded.

"Yes, that’s exactly right!"

At this moment, Lin Yuenong walked out from the kitchen.

"Oh, you finally came back, just in time for dinner!"

After the New Year, Chu Tiankuo already returned to the army, leaving only the three of them at home.

As for Lin Yuenong, she would be going back to work in a few days, and with their troupe always on tour, there wouldn’t be many days at home.

During dinner, Lin Yuenong smiled and asked, "Hey, son, do you have a date tonight?"

Chu Xici was taken aback, "What?"

"You silly, are you so busy with work that you’re confused? Didn’t Gege just say it? Today is Valentine’s Day, you should at least ask a girl out and give her a small gift or something!"

Lin Yuenong said enthusiastically.

Chu Xici: "..."

How should he respond to that?

The girl he likes...

Seeing Chu Xici not speaking, just pondering with his head down, Lin Yuenong shook her head.

"Really, I used to think you were quite clever, how come you turn dumb on this kind of thing?"

Chu Xici raised his eyes, smiling warmly.

"Mom, smart people are rational and won’t choose to join in the excitement on this day."

Yege heard Chu Xici’s words and snorted, "Yunqing and Tong Xi chose to get their marriage certificates today, and it was you who helped them! I saw it in the group chat! Do you mean Yunqing and Tong Xi are dumb?"

Chu Xici: "..."

This little girl actually shut him up!

She really is defying him!

And Lin Yuenong, hearing this, also laughed.

"Hey, look at you, you helped Yufeng with his marriage certificate and Yunqing with his marriage certificate, both Shen family brothers were helped by you. Well, in the future, there’s still Wen Nansheng, Fu Ziran, Mo Jinyu... I’m thinking, are you planning to help your bunch of good brothers with their lifelong affairs, and then it’s your turn?"

Lin Yuenong was, of course, just joking.

But honestly, seeing both Shen family brothers getting their marriage certificates, Lin Yuenong felt a little envious.

And when Chu Xici heard this, his dark eyes took on a vague mistiness.

"Mom, stop talking about this, let’s hurry up and eat, it won’t taste good if it gets cold!"

Saying this, Chu Xici sidestepped the topic, serving Lin Yuenong a piece of fish.

"Oh dear, I misspoke earlier! The last one to get married won’t be you," Lin Yuenong chuckled and turned to look at little Yege, "It should be my darling daughter!"

Originally, when Lin Yuenong mentioned Chu Xici’s marriage, Yege felt a small pang in her heart.

But now, when Lin Yuenong brought her into the conversation, Yege was immediately stunned.

"Mom, why are you bringing me into this?"

Lin Yuenong reached out to pat Yege’s head, smiling and saying, "Hmm, in the blink of an eye, after this New Year, our Gege will be eighteen. She’s a big girl now!"

Yege’s heart pounded.

Eighteen!

Yes, after the New Year, she would be eighteen!
