77 They Showed Up…

Hao Ren walked into the kitchen and said hello to Zhao Hongyu and his grandma who were busy cooking. Zhao Yanzi followed suit and greeted her mom Grandma.

Since dinner wasn't ready yet, Zhao Hongyu asked Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi to go up and play before the dinner was served. Thus, they went upstairs and entered Zhao Yanzi's room.

Zhao Yanzi was no longer feeling any resistance against Hao Ren entering her room, but it still was her territory, and Hao Ren must obey her rules while he was in there.

"I'll play games, and you read," upon entering the room, Zhao Yanzi immediately assigned tasks.

From the bookshelf, Hao Ren picked up the novel he was halfway through reading. He asked with deliberate casualness, "Your birthday is coming up?"

"It's next month," Zhao Yanzi answered. She turned on the computer before changing into the pink slippers she usually wore in her room.
