Ever since he started his martial arts training, Xiao Mo would wake up at the crack of dawn, just as the sky was beginning to lighten.
But Zhou Ruoxi woke up even earlier than he did.
By the time Xiao Mo finished washing up, Zhou Ruoxi would be walking out of the kitchen with hot congee and steamed buns.
Even though these were tasks Cuicui could have handled, Zhou Ruoxi insisted on making breakfast for her son herself every day.
After breakfast, Xiao Mo would tell his mother, "Mother, I'm off to the training ground," and then scamper away in that direction on his short little legs.
At first, Zhou Ruoxi would walk Xiao Mo to the training ground.
But after half a month, once Xiao Mo was familiar with the path, the Xiao Mansion's rules required that he go by himself.
'Zhou Ruoxi knew, of course, that her son had to grow up eventually. Besides, the training ground was inside the Xiao Mansion, so it wasn't dangerous, and all the other children went by themselves.'
