Dinner as a Family

Zhihui and Mors soon arrive at Zhihui's parent mansion. Zhihui knocks on the door softly. A few seconds later the door handle twisted and the door opened. A cute maid shows itself. With short blue hair, freckles, and emerald-clear eyes.

"Lady Zhihui and Sir Ming. How can I help you today?"

"Hello Xinying, we just came by to say hi to my parents. Are they home?"

"Yes, the master and mistress are currently eating right now."

"Ah ok then, we can come by later"

"Zhihui and Ming, enter now"

The maid looks at the couple with a smile on her face.

"You heard the mistress, please come in. I will go ahead and tell the chef to prepare more food"

"Thank you Xinying"

The couple follows behind the cute maid down the hallway. Zhihui eyes, while not as great as her mother's, notices something different in the way the cute maid walks.

"Xinying did you hurt yourself?"

"Um? No, my lady, why do you ask?"

"Well, you are walking weirdly"

"Oh, I don't know why, it just happen one day last year. I just lost my inner beat"

"I see, I hope you get better- um Mor-Ming something wrong?"

Mors stood in place, his body sweating bullets. The maid's words echo in his mind. Something was slowly put into place. Like puzzle pieces clicking together to form the big picture.

"Ming! You ok?"

"Ah- yes yes. I just thought of something. Sorry, let's keep going"

Mors said as he sighs in relief. He continues to follow the group as all soon arrive at the dining room of the house. At the table eating were Tian and Wen. Both seem to be enjoying their meal. Wen pointed at the open seats. Speaking in a cold voice.

"Seat"

"Yes Mother"

The couple said as they sat next to each other. Mors took off his mask and put it away in his storage ring. Wen looks at the couple as she spoke in her usual cold voice.

"Marriage life good?"

"Yes Mother, it's all good. Mind and I were just talking about how many kids we should have"

"Kids!? You are both too you-"

Tian got up from his seat to complain, only to be a push by into his seat by something small hitting his forehead. Wen looks at Zhihui as she nodded her.

"Ming and I were thinking of having around 10 kids"

"Good, good, grandchildren good. When?"

"When we reach the elder stage"

"So, in a couple of years. Good, good. Tian we got to prepare for grandchildren"

"Dear! It's still too early for them-"

"grandchildren"

"But"

"Cute small grandchildren"

"Cute-"

"Cute grandchildren that will call me grandma! Hehe-" Wen's emotion suppressor could not suppress the pure emotions she was feeling when she thought of her upcoming grandchildren.

"You are right dear; we have to prepare for grandchildren. We should buy clothes and toys!"

"Decorate room"

"Yes! We should also make a room for each of them. Great great…"

Tian happy go lucky mood soon worsen as he looks at Mors. His eyes narrowed as Mors felt a shiver down his spine. Mors tried his best to not make eye contact with his father-in-law. Thankfully his grace and savior came. Food. The maid placed in front of him a hot steaming bowl of noodles with pieces of soft meat and fresh vegetables.

With food now in front of them, the family started to eat. They ate their meal in peace. From time to time, the older couple will get lost in their own world. The idea of having grandchildren really stuck with them. As the meal finished, Mors and Zhihui went to the front door.

Follow by the older couple. Mors opens the door ever so slightly. Wen looks at the young couple with care and affection in her eyes. She kisses Zhihui on the forehead, then does the same for Mors. Her eyes soon turned cold.

"Be careful out there. Be safe and come around more often"

"Will do Mom"

Tian looks at the couple with a softened look.

"I hate to admit it, but you truly are a good man"

"Please don't say that you are being creepy"

"…..Bastard- come back here!"

Mors laughs as he runs out the door, chased by Tian. The two of them run for a few seconds before stopping. A smile on their faces. They reach out their hands and shake it firmly. Zhihui looks at the scene with a smile on her face.

"Men get along very quickly"

"You got along with Ming very quickly as well"

"I always wanted a son"

Wen said, patting her belly ever so slightly. When Zhihui was born, Wen was on the verge of death. No matter how strong someone is, the pain and danger of childbirth never goes away. That birth was so painful and risky that the doctors recommended she does not have any more kids.

She knew it was stupid to ignore the words of wise men and women.

"Ming come on! We got to get home"

"Alright, see you later Tian"

"You too Ming"

"See you later mother!"

"See you"

The young couple started to make their way home as the older couple close the door of their house. Mors and Zhihui did not take long to reach their home. As Ru open the door for them. The two of them went to the bathroom to shower together.

What will normally be a 30-minute shower turn into an hour. Thankfully neither of the servants heard their master's moan thanks to the falling water. After that long shower, the couple went to separate rooms. For today they will be upgrading a part of their body.
