After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey. However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.
Meng Linlang replied unhappily, "We have a guest, so of course, I must cook a few dishes to show my sincerity!"
"Yes, we have a guest. At least, she knows that you want to thank her, or else, she'd think you want to repay with revenge!" Zhuang Rongguang mumbled.
Meng Linlang immediately shot him a look. Even though she was angry, there was still love in her eyes. "You brat!"
Keer leaned into Ning Xi's ears and laughed as she explained, "My mother's not great at cooking..."
"Ahh..." There was indistinct envy in Ning Xi's eyes as she watched at the interaction between Madam Zhuang and her children.
"Xiao Xi, have fun with Keer and Rongguang for a while. Dinner will be ready soon!"
"Okay, don't worry about me!"
...
Moments later, dinner was ready.
On the roundtable, the Zhuang family was gathered at an unusual occasion.
Zhuang Liaoyuan picked up his wine glass and stood up first. "Xiao Xi, a toast to you!"
