Feeling touched, Xia Xin’s eyes welled up with tears, and she couldn’t help but hug Gu Fan, saying, “Mom, thank you. I love you so much.”

Gu Fan replied, “Silly child, no need to thank me. Wash your hands quickly and sit down to eat.”

Looking at the table full of dishes she loved, Xia Xin’s appetite grew, and she ended up eating two bowls of rice without realizing it. After finishing her meal, she couldn’t help but burp.

Having devoured her meal, Xia Xin suddenly remembered to ask Gu Fan, “Mom, why did you come all of a sudden? You didn’t even tell me. I’ve been staying at Zhao Nan’s place for the past couple of days. If I hadn’t come back today, the meals you prepared would have gone to waste.”

Gu Fan, looking very content, gazed at her daughter and said, “It’s not wasted at all. I had the spontaneous idea to come and cook a meal for you today. I have to go to work in the afternoon, so I didn’t inform you. I planned it out; if you didn’t come back, I was going to freeze these dishes in the fridge, and you could just heat them up whenever you want.”

Xia Xin savored another piece of sweet and sour pork rib, feeling a deep sense of happiness. The feeling of being cared for by her mother was wonderful. There was nothing in this world more valuable than the love of parents that she should cherish.

Once Xia Xin finished eating, Gu Fan started to collect the dishes to wash them.

Xia Xin stopped Gu Fan and said, “Mom, don’t bother. You’ve already cleaned the house so nicely. Let me take care of the rest.”

Gu Fan looked puzzled and said, “Take care of what? Isn’t it you who cleaned the house so nicely? I was wondering why you suddenly changed today, actually being willing to clean up the house. It’s so clean that I even doubted if I went to the wrong house. I thought maybe your dad secretly told you I was coming, so you cleaned up ahead of time.”

Xia Xin was stunned and thought, ‘I hadn’t cleaned the house so thoroughly. Who could it be? It couldn’t be Layle, right?’

While Gu Fan continued to tidy up, she couldn’t help but nag at Xia Xin, “Look at you, all grown up, yet your home is always so messy. What if guests come over and see this? And also, don’t cover the peephole with that sticky note at the door! The peephole is for you to see who’s knocking. If you cover it with a note, how will you see outside? What if a bad person comes and you open the door?”

Xia Xin was mentally resisting and thought, ‘I’m no longer a child, so why did I need to be told not to open the door to strangers! Wait a second, the sticky note! Right, it must be Jing MO!’

Xia Xin suddenly realized. Jing MO had put a sticky note on the door, maybe not to tell her that he had been there, but to let her know that the house had been cleaned.

Xia Xin wasn’t sure, though. She planned to text Jing MO to confirm.

Having listened to Gu Fan’s many words without really paying attention, Xia Xin replied somewhat flustered, “I heard you! I’ll be careful. This residential area has good security service. You don’t need to worry about me.”

Gu Fan said, “There’s no parent in the world who doesn’t worry about their child. A couple of days ago, you mentioned selling the house for relocation and buying a new one. I inquired about the property prices in this neighborhood. If you’re buying a second-hand house, the compensation from the house for relocation should just about cover it. If you’re interested, we can buy this one. If you want a new one, it might require a bit more. But your dad and I have saved enough money in the last couple of years to buy a new house. What are your thoughts?”

‘My parents worked hard their whole lives, and they’re willing to use their savings to help me buy a house.’ Xia Xin thought. Tears welled up in Xia Xin’s eyes again, and she hugged Gu Fan tightly. She said, “Mom, I’m lucky to have you!”

In her heart, Xia Xin added, ‘I’m lucky to have both of you by my side in this life.

“Silly child, think about it yourself. I need to hurry to work,” said Gu Fan.

Xia Xin personally saw Gu Fan off in the elevator before returning to rest. She calculated the money she had earned recently from work, including advertising fees and earnings from participating in variety shows. It amounted to about 500,000 yuan.

Xia Xin planned to use the money she had to take her parents on a trip abroad first. If she needed more to buy a new house, the remaining money should be enough. However, Xia Xin didn’t want to rush into things. The house had to be to her liking; she couldn’t just buy any house..
