"Dad, Mom, what's there to worry about?"
Seeing her parents' doubtful expressions, Tan Yanli realized her words had made them uneasy.
So she playfully said, "Mom, I just thought that since I'm not home often, you two must be very lonely. Going on a trip is a great way to fend off loneliness!"
"Are you really okay?"
Xiao Li looked at Tan Yanli with a probing gaze, feeling a bit uneasy at her daughter's words.
Tan Yanli forced a smile and replied, "Mom, I'm really fine!"
She picked up some fish she loved and put it in her bowl, "Wow, my favorite! It's been so long since I had fish made by Mom!"
Looking up, she saw her parents watching her and not picking up their chopsticks, so she called out, "Dad, Mom, why are you just looking at me? Hurry up and eat!"
"Okay!"
Xiao Li and Tan Chao exchanged a glance and began to eat lunch.
