253 253. She Doesn't Understand (Second Revision)

Yin Country's Imperial Palace.

Duanmu Chen was tasting the soup that Imperial Concubine Xiao had made when Duanmu Yi suddenly arrived.

Mother and son quickly got up to greet him. Duanmu Yi smiled warmly, helped Imperial Concubine Xiao up, and took her hand to sit down together, "What kind of soup am I missing out on today? Are you making it just for Chen'er and not for me?"

Imperial Concubine Xiao hastily explained that she had just received the recipe and wanted Duanmu Chen to try it out first, fearing it might not turn out well.

Duanmu Chen pretended to be hurt, "So, the soup my mother made for me was just for me to taste it first before giving it to my father."

Imperial Concubine Xiao chided Duanmu Chen with a glare, "Don't talk nonsense."

Duanmu Yi burst out laughing.

The atmosphere was harmonious, and they really looked like a happy family of three.
