With that, she deftly picked up the tray and turned to leave.
Xiaohua's gaze followed the woman's retreating figure until she was out of sight. Only then did she snap out of it, turning to Natasha with eyes full of curiosity and asking.
"Sister, are they your employees too?"
"They're the housemaids," Natasha said, turning slightly to face Xiaohua with a gentle smile, her voice soft and low as she explained.
Hearing this, Xiaohua's face immediately filled with envy. She couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm so jealous. You even have maids. Not like me, I have to do everything myself. Even while pregnant, I have to cook and do laundry, and sometimes I even have to go work at the store."
As she spoke, Xiaohua gently caressed her slightly swollen belly, a hint of grievance in her eyes.
Sitting to the side, Hu Zi and Black Hide nearly had their jaws drop to the floor when they heard this.
They exchanged a look, both seeing a mix of helplessness and amusement in the other's eyes.
