"Xiuwen..."
Ji Xiuwen's door was pushed open, and Li Qinlan poked her head in. "Why haven't you come out yet?"
"Mom."
Ji Xiuwen looked helpless. "At least respect my privacy a bit! What if I'm changing clothes?"
Li Qinlan pouted. "You're even complaining about your old mother now. It's not like I haven't seen you before. When you were a child, it was your mother here who raised you through thick and thin."
However, Li Qinlan just said that stubbornly. She quickly showed some remorse. "Alright, I'll be careful next time, okay?"
"Mom, it's already eleven o'clock. Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Ji Xiuwen glanced at the alarm clock on his desk and frowned. "Did something happen?"
"Come out first. Let your dad talk to you."
Ji Xiuwen was full of confusion, but he knew it probably wasn't something bad. He knew Li Qinlan's temperament well; if it were something terrible, she would be pale and tense, not as relaxed as she was now.
