Su's mother, who had just finished bathing, came out and saw Yin Shixiu. She was stunned for a moment and then asked, "Why are you here at this hour?"
"Well, it was busy over in Beijing, and the flight was delayed by more than an hour."
Su's mother glanced at Yin Shixiu and said blandly, "Do your parents know you're coming to Chengdu for the New Year? They didn't object?"
"Auntie, you don't need to worry about that. I was supposed to come back with Xiaomeng together, but honestly—"
"Don't give me that nonsense. Have you eaten?"
Su's mother asked coldly.
"Not yet..."
Su's mother frowned and glared at him, "Don't think you're young and neglect your health!"
"Mom, Uncle's not that young anymore!"
Su Xiaomeng suddenly chimed in, only to be glared back at by Su's mother.
"I'll cook you some noodles. Go sit down."
"Thank you, Auntie."
