“Ah?” Han Zixin was confused. What could eyebrows even say to each other? He didn’t mind her asking him silly riddles. It was just that he didn’t know the answer to this one.
“I don’t know, “Han Zixin said after a while. “Tell the answer.”
“It says, ‘you looked surprised to see ’,” An Xiulan replied and then giggled at her own joke.
Han Zixin’s lips twitched. See, she was really silly.
“Why are you here?” Han Zixin asked.
“I just ca to pass words,” An Xiulan said with a shrug.
“What words?” Han Zixin asked.
“My mom asked to invite you for lunch,” An Xiulan asked. Seeing that her driver was there, she grabbed his hand and dragged him with her. “Let’s go, Cheat Prince. You can’t disrespect food.”.
Well, what could Han Zixin say at this mont?
He was practically being kidnapped by this little blockhead. She was not inviting but almost kidnapping him. But why was he complying with her? There had to be sothing wrong with his head.

“You have to rember so rules,” An Xiulan said as soon as they were on the threshold of her house.
“Excuse ?” Han Zixin couldn’t understand her logic. Did she forget that she invited him, not the other way around? What was wrong with this girl?
“You can’t say the food cooked by my mom is not better than the chef’s even if it’s true, “An Xiulan said. “You are not allowed to make her like you. You are not allowed to have a second visit to my ho.”
“You are crazy, “Han Zixin muttered as he entered the door with her. He was looking at the villa that was decorated grandly and luxuriously. Although it looked quite ordinary and small from the outside, he knew now why they said never to judge a book by its cover.
An Qinyan was on her phone when she saw her daughter coming with her classmate. She internally raised her brow. Didn’t her daughter say that the boy wasn’t her friend and she wouldn’t bring him ho for lunch?
“Mom, this is Han Zixin and he is my deskmate. I invited him for lunch just like you asked , “An Xiulan said with a smile. Turning towards him, she said, “And this is An Qinyan. She is the best mother in the world.”
An Qinyan chuckled helplessly as she patted her daughter’s head lovingly.
Han Zixin could now understand why she had such a thick mom filter. Her mother looked extraordinary. He had imagined her mother to be a gentle beauty type. It wasn’t that An Qinyan wasn’t gentle or a beauty, it was just that the word gentle beauty didn’t fit her.
“Hello, Mrs An, thank you for inviting , “Han Zixin’s said in a respectful tone.
“Thank you for accepting my invitation,” An Qinyan said. “I wanted to thank you for helping An Xiulan in the supermarket and later in the mall. You are a very good child. I can’t thank you enough for what you have done for my Lanlan.”
Han Zixin blushed. He wasn’t used to getting praise. But he didn’t know why he felt touched hearing those words but An Xiulan’s mother had such a heavy yet very soothing presence.
“It’s nothing, “Han Zixin said humbly.
An Qinyan got busy later as she was giving instructions to the kitchen staff to add a few more dishes for the children while An Xiulan and Han Zixin were in the living room enjoying refreshnts. Since he was the first person their young miss had brought ho and he was her desk mate, the staff was extrely warm to him.
Unlike the Han mansion where everyone was polite to him, everyone here was extrely warm and welcoming. It felt as if they were honoured by his presence and who wouldn’t like to be in this kind of atmosphere.
“Cheat Prince, do you want to et my sisters?” An Xiulan asked while fanning her eyelashes. She was practically begging him. She loved showing off her feline sisters to everyone.
“Aren’t they quite young?” Han Zixin said hesitantly. What would he do after eting newborn babies? He didn’t like babies. They were cranky and loud.
“Oh no, they have grown up a lot, “An Xiulan said. Suddenly her face lit up like a Christmas tree as she added, “There they are. et my sisters Betty and Augustine.”
Han Zixin turned his head to look at two kittens coming their way. Technically, they were coming toward her.
What was he expecting from her?
He should have known that!
Why did he actually believe for a second that her mother had adopted newborn babies?
It was his fault for expecting too much from the wrong person.
“Betty, say hi to my deskmate,” An Xiulan cooed as she held the kitten’s paw and extended it towards him as if it was handshaking with him.
Han Zixin liked little animals and so he held the paw the kitten was extending his way and caressed the other kitten’s head as he took it in his lap. Augustine was snuggling into his lap and she felt a caress on its head.
“That’s Augustine, “An Xiulan told him the na.
“They are precious,” Han Zixin replied and An Xiulan’s smile widened.
“I know right!”
For another half an hour they were playing with the kittens. Then, An Qinyan called them for lunch. He didn’t know why but the lunch table was covered as if it was so kind of feast. However, he didn’t feel uncomfortable in this house and had lunch with the two of them.
After dinner, both of them played with cats again and then began watching a dubbed English action movie and didn’t realise when the sky turned dark. When the movie ended, it was ti for dinner.
How could An Qinyan let him leave without having dinner?
Nope, it didn’t feel right at all.
“Auntie, I need to leave or the dormitory will be closed, “Han Zixin helplessly said after the dinner.
“Don’t worry, I will ask the driver to drop you at your dormitory in ti,” An Qinyan said and Han Zixin smiled.
It was such a nice day. He completely forgot how the boy who was wishing to disappear from the face of the earth was about to save this day in one of the happiest days of his life where he was made to feel wanted and honoured.
