"Mom and Dad, I'm back!"
As soon as Yu Songbai entered the house, he carelessly tossed his luggage onto the floor and swaggered over to the sofa, calling out for someone. "Mom, is dinner ready? I'm starving. Why didn’t you let Dad pick me up? Didn’t we agree on that?"
It was rare for his father to have a day off to come home, and not only was no one there to greet him, but he had to unlock the door himself under the eaves of Ying Pen.
"Mom? Mom?"
After calling out several times without a response, Yu Songbai couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up and walked to the bedroom door. Just as he was about to push it open, someone suddenly slapped him on the back of the head from behind.
"What are you shouting about? You come back and act like a big shot? Do you expect me to pick you up personally?"
Yu Fu looked at Yu Songbai with a mix of love and annoyance. The kid was indeed clever, but his ability to irritate was equally impressive.
"Come on, Dad, you hit me as soon as I got back? Am I not your son anymore?"
Yu Songbai rubbed his head; his father had quite a bit of strength, and his head was still buzzing from the slap. He seriously suspected that he had been exceptionally smart before, but his father had knocked some sense out of him.
"Your mom and little sister went grocery shopping; they haven't returned yet!"
Yu Fu shot a glance at his son before settling down on the sofa to read the newspaper.
"Xiao Yu is back? Do they get time off when they go to the countryside too?"
"You little rascal, do you think only you get time off? Come play a game with me; let’s see how much you've improved!"
Yu Songbai felt reluctant. He had just returned, and his backside hadn’t even warmed the seat yet; he hadn’t even had a bite of hot food.
"Come on, Dad, why do I have to play chess with you when I’m so unwilling?"
"I mean it! When will Mom be back? I'm starving!"
Being hungry was one thing; after being away for so long, he missed his mother's cooking.
"It'll probably be a while longer. Your mom and Xiao Yu are also picking up some gifts for Uncle Gu’s family. There’s rice in the pot; if you're hungry, just eat some."
If Yu Songyu were hungry, Yu Ba would have already rushed off to cook. It wasn’t that he didn’t love this son; he just felt that as a man, there was no need to be overly sentimental. So he had trained them to be self-reliant from a young age.
Speaking of Yu Songbai, he had caused quite a few headaches for both Yu Ba and Yu Ma when he was younger.
This child has been clever since he was little, but he is truly mischievous. The heavens have thrown him into trouble, and he has caused no small amount of headaches for others. He gets beaten at least three times a day; if you give him even a hint of kindness, won't he turn the house upside down?
After being in the army for so long, he still feels so reckless and hasn't made much progress.
Who is it? Little Sister is back!
Upon hearing that Yu Songyu had returned, Yu Songbai's face lit up with surprise. Although he had bullied her a lot when they were younger, it had been a long time since they last met, and he really missed her.
"Yu Songbai, is that you back?"
Mother Yu opened the door and immediately noticed a pair of men's shoes by the entrance. "Mom? Mom! I've missed you so much!"
Yu Songbai rushed out upon hearing her voice and immediately gave her a hug, nearly causing Mother Yu to stumble.
This child, why does he still act like he hasn't grown up at all!
Mother Yu looked at her tall and handsome son, feeling an indescribable sense of emotion. He has tanned a bit, but he's also become sturdier, looking more like a man now!
Mother Yu reached out and patted her son's arm, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"Xiao Yu!"
Yu Songbai opened his arms again, ready to hug Yu Songyu.
Oh come on, you don't need to be that enthusiastic with me!
Yu Songyu raised her hand and made a stopping gesture.
What's wrong? You're my little sister; can't I give you a hug?
Sure, but you're all dirty like this; only our mom wouldn't mind you!
Yu Songbai was speechless. He had just returned and hadn't even had a warm meal yet; how could he find time to change clothes?
Are you running back here because you can't stand the hardships of queuing up?
Yu Songbai felt stung by her words, and that mischievous energy came back to him. "Yu Songbai, I think you're the real coward here!"
Now, Yu Songyu's mind was filled with memories of how Yu Songbai used to bully her when they were kids; it's no wonder she wasn't very friendly toward him!
Hey, you little brat, how can you say such things? You have no respect!
