"Yeah, let's go back to the Imperial Garden."
Mai Xiaomai and he walked out of the restaurant and returned to the hilltop house, quickly packing up their things.
Mai Xiaomai drove Qiao Chutian back to the city, back to the Imperial Garden.
Feeling a sudden urge to see her parents, she didn't drive directly to Imperial Garden No.1 but stopped at No.5 instead.
"Sister—"
Pus was playing with Little Pus at the door. Seeing her, he ran over and hugged her leg, acting cute and saying, "I missed you so much."
Mai Xiaomai picked him up and gave him a kiss.
Little Pus also jumped into her arms, with its little black paws wrapped around her neck. Mimicking Pus, it gave her a kiss on the cheek, making her giggle.
"Where are my parents, are they home?"
Mai Xiaomai inquired.
"One went to play cards, and the other went fishing. No one's home, it's just me."
Little Pus said somewhat aggrieved, "It's really boring and dull, and no one's here to eat with me."
"Oh?"
