"Since you didn't want to come over to see me, I decided to make the trip myself. After all, I can still move about, I'm not bedridden." Her mother-in-law retorted.

"Mother it's not I never wanted to come over to the house. I've been busy at work, and work hasn't been so easy for me lately." Liu Huiling half-lied. 

"You can always take some time off from work. And I know you wouldn't have trouble taking a leave because the company belongs to your family." Her mother-in-law replied as she carried some dishes to the dining room.

"Mother, even if the company belongs to my family, I can't jeopardize my work." Liu Huiling said as she carried the rest of the dishes out.

"Alright, let's not dwell on it. Wash your hands and come and eat." Her mother-in-law says to her after she put the food down on the table.

Liu Huiling returned from the kitchen after washing her hands.
