Half an hour later, Ji Chengzhi finally brought the little girl back to their apartment.
Upon arriving, Ranran was overjoyed not to have to stay at her grandparents' house anymore. She remembered her grandma's threats before they returned and quickly went to the kitchen to open the fridge: "Dad, look, I wasn't lying to you. Mom really bought loads of dumplings at home."
Ji Chengzhi was changing his shoes at the time and just gave a casual glance at the open fridge.
"Ranran, I need to talk to you about something."
"Hmm, what is it?"
"About what happened today... don't mention it to your mom when she gets back."
"..."
Ji Ranran immediately turned to look at her dad.
Oh?
Dad looked guilty. Could this mean that he doesn't want Mom to know he accidentally lost her?
Crafty Ji Ranran quickly closed the fridge door and went over to her dad: "Then can you promise me something?"
"What is it?"
"Can we go to KFC? I haven't had it in ages!"
Ji Chengzhi: "..."
