"This way we have a complete collection." Then he said.

No need for acquaintances to tease you.

At this moment, in the eyes of every passerby, they are just a young couple.

"It's getting late, let's go back." Chen Xingying said.

It was past four o'clock and close to five o'clock, and their "date" was over.

When I got home, I was about to knock on the door, but found that the door opened by itself.

Chen Xingying opened the door and walked in, followed closely by Chen Xin. There was no one in the living room.

Could it be that Xiaopeng and the others haven't arrived yet?

"Bang! Happy birthday!"

As the birthday fireworks sounded, Xiaoyu, Xiaopeng and Xiaochu jumped out and showed Chen Xingying the surprise they had prepared.

Colorful ribbons were dancing in the sky.

"So you are all here?" Chen Xingying said slightly surprised.

"Of course, but your master, you and Sister Xiaolin have been dating for a long time. I lay at the window and watched for a long time before I saw you come back." Xiao Chu said with a pout, looking like the usual Xiao Chu.

"Hey, Xiaoxin, Chenxin, you are back."

"Mother" came out of the kitchen,

"You guys can play in the living room for a while, and I'll be busy for a while. Dinner will be almost ready when Xiaoxing's father comes back from going out."

"Huh? Where is dad?" Chen Xingying asked unexpectedly.

"Your dad seems to have something to do at the company today. He will go and deal with it first and will be back soon."

"Mother" replied.

Chen Xingying herself was surprised that after only a week of getting along, her relationship with her "parents" had already become natural.

"Auntie, let me help too." Chen Xin ran towards her "mother" who was about to walk back to the kitchen.

"no, I'm fine."

Although "mother" refused, Chen Xin still insisted on helping her.

"Ah, let's watch animation then. The prime time of animation is about to begin."

Xiao Chu turned on the TV directly.

"I wonder how old you are and you still watch cartoons on children's channels." Xiaopeng complained.

"I want you to take care of it!"

After the quarrel, TV still compromised on the children's channel.

In the kitchen…

Chen Xin is helping "mother" load the dishes.

"How's it going? I played with Xiaoxing today."

"Mother" asked.

"Very good, I'm very happy. We went to the newly renovated park nearby this morning." Chen Xin replied.

"Well, the renovation there is quite good. By the way, did that silly boy do anything out of the ordinary when he was alone with you these past few days? If so, tell auntie, and auntie will teach you a lesson for you."

Mother continued.

"No, professor, how could he do such a thing? He only thinks about problems all day long."

"Hahaha, yes, this silly boy looks exactly like his father when he was young." Mother smiled.

"Well, how did you and your uncle get along so well?" Chen Xin asked.

"Your uncle and I both went to the same university and then studied for Ph.D.s. We were assigned to the same group in the same research institute. Your uncle's grades were very good at that time and he was liked by several professors, but he was very poor at dealing with people.

I was too arrogant. I was assigned to a team with him, and he said that I was not good enough and could only be his assistant. Then I couldn't get angry with him, so I fought with him day and night in academic research, and fought and fought.

emotion."

Of course, "mother" omits a lot of content here.

"I see. That's really special." Chen Xin sighed.

"Isn't that right? They say good people tend to attract each other."

Silence followed for several minutes.

"By the way, Auntie, aren't you and uncle AI?" Chen Xin asked in a low voice.

But "mother" didn't seem to hear it and was still busy doing her own thing.

In the evening, when "father" got home, the dishes on the table were almost ready.

"Happy birthday, son!" the father said, then took out a box of things from the paper bag he was carrying and handed it to Chen Xingying.

"Here, Xiaoxing, this is your birthday gift."

"What is it?" Chen Xingying took it in her hand and couldn't wait to open it. It turned out to be a wallet. The black style looked very grand, but it didn't look old-fashioned.

"This is the latest model this year and is most suitable for young people. When you grow up, you just need to learn to manage yourself well."

said the father.

"Well, thank you, dad." Chen Xingying thanked her.

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot to give the gift I prepared to Master." Xiao Chu ran over.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!" He exaggeratedly took out a pendant hanging around his neck.

"What is this?" Chen Xingying asked.

"This is a famous brand." Seeing that "father" was no longer around, Xiao Chu whispered, pointing to the metal brand-like pendant.

"Look, it has the names of all of our friends in the Taoyuan World, including you, engraved on it."

"Really?"

Chen Xingying looked at the names above carefully: Chen Xingying, Lin Chenxin, Qin Yichu, Li Xiaopeng, Li Xiaoyu, Wang Xuanjun

"Huh? Why is there still Wang Xuanjun's name?" Chen Xingying asked.

"Okay, the dishes are here, everyone is ready."

At this moment, "Mother" and Chen Xin came out carrying the last two dishes.

"Okay! I'm starving." Xiao Chu happily ran to the table and ignored Chen Xingying's question.

Today's dishes are particularly rich, and at first glance, the children will like to eat them.

Japanese curry, hamburger steak, chicken wings and a few Chinese stir-fries satisfy "father's" appetite

"Eat these first. There will be fried rice later. If you want to eat, Auntie will help you with it later."

"Mother" said with a smile.

"good!"

Everyone agreed in unison to start the process.

"Wow, Auntie, the food you cook is so delicious, it's just like the food in the restaurant." Xiaopeng praised while eating.

"Yeah." Xiaoyu nodded in agreement.

With no false memories, this was their first real taste of "mother's" cooking.

"Haha, as long as you think it tastes good."

"Mother" is still the same sentence. Indeed, the praise of one's own cooking is the best reward for this person.

Xiao Chu then asked his "mother" to serve two bowls of fried rice.

"Auntie, I think your fried rice is delicious!" Xiao Chu said with rice still in his mouth.

"Okay, Xiao Chu, save your stomach for a while and there is a birthday cake." Chen Xin said with concern from the side, as if she was afraid that he would eat it badly.

"Xiao Chu, why didn't your parents come together?"

"Father" asked kindly.

"They want to live in a world of two, so I don't have to disturb them." Xiao Chu returned.

After everyone was done eating, my mother took out the birthday cake from the refrigerator.

"Wow, it's a chocolate black forest! Auntie, did you make this too?" Xiao Chu asked.

"I learned to do this with the teacher in the training class. I don't have the right tools at home."

"Mother" said with a smile.

"Stop looking at each other and help light the candles." Xiao Peng motioned for Xiao Chu to give way.

So, after lighting the candles, Xiaoyu turned off the lights and everyone gathered around Chen Xingying to sing happy birthday.
