Hearing this, everyone roughly understood.

It seems that the rat killer who killed the white mouse was Xiaoyu, but the little guy just didn't dare to say it.

Xia Ze didn't immediately expose Xiao Yu, but instead asked with a smile, "Then could it be intentional if it wasn't intentional?"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, he didn't mean it. I think he just wanted the little mouse and the cat to have a fight, like Tom and Jerry in Tom and Jerry competing to see who is stronger."

Xia Ze couldn't hold it in any longer.

Xiaoyu completely sold herself out.

"So that's how it is. Then who could be the person with such ingenious ideas? Dad, could Liu Xing be one of you two?"

"Don't look at me, I told you I have an alibi."

"Then it's even more impossible for me. Dad is so old, how could he still have such thoughts?"

"Oh, and what about you, Xiaoyu?" Xia Ze asked with a smile.

"I also have an alibi!"

"I was with Erpang at the time. You can call him if you don't believe me," Xiaoyu quickly explained.

But everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

This child can't keep anything to himself at all.

He's already this anxious before anyone else has even questioned him.

Xia Ze continued, "Didn't you just say that you were playing on the slide downstairs with Weiwei and Duoduo that afternoon?"

"Ah, I..." Xiaoyu panicked when she heard this and quickly made up another excuse: "I went to see Erpang first."

"Really? Then I'll call Erpang and ask." After saying that, Xia Ze pretended to get up to make a call.

This made Xiaoyu, who was watching his back, so anxious that she almost peed her pants on the spot.

Just as Xia Ze's hand touched the landline at home, the phone rang.

He casually answered the phone and turned on speakerphone.

A little boy's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, has the cat and mouse thing been exposed yet?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Xiaoyu, who looked embarrassed.

This is truly a true brother who would never hesitate to betray his teammates!

"Little Rain!!!"

After learning what had happened, Xia Xue glared angrily at Xiao Yu.

Her anger wasn't entirely due to Xiaoyu killing the white mouse.

Another reason is that this guy concealed the truth, causing her to wrongly accuse Liu Mei.

Thinking about her yelling at Liu Mei these past two days, Xiaoxue felt very guilty.

Xiaoyu was also scared when she saw Xiaoxue's anger.

He wasn't stupid; he immediately spread his legs and ran away.

Xia Xue angrily chased after her, but Xiao Yu was also clever and ran directly to Liu Mei's side.

Seeing this, Xiaoxue could only watch helplessly.

Liu Mei patted Xiaoyu's head and then looked at Xiaoxue. The two looked at each other without saying a word.

Xia Ze walked over to Xiao Xue, who was filled with remorse.

Although he didn't offer any words of comfort, he patted Xiaoxue's shoulder to give her courage.

"Auntie... I'm sorry! I wronged you about this." Xiaoxue was silent for a moment, then mustered her courage and sincerely apologized.

Liu Mei, who genuinely considers Xiaoxue her own daughter, certainly wouldn't hold a grudge against her over these matters.

Sensing Xiaoxue's guilt, Liu Mei smiled and hugged her: "You don't need to apologize to Auntie. It's all a misunderstanding. Just explain it clearly."

The warmth in Liu Mei's arms made Xiao Xue's heart pound.

Her nose tingled and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably: "I'm so sorry, Auntie, I was so disrespectful to you that day, are you really not angry with me?"

Looking at Xiaoxue, who was crying loudly, Liu Mei said with heartache, "Auntie doesn't blame you. Mother and daughter don't hold grudges overnight."

Xia Xue could sense that Liu Mei's words were sincere.

I was deeply moved.

So this is what it feels like to be loved by your mother?

That's great, she likes it very much.

Having been separated from Mary since childhood, Xiaoxue had forgotten what maternal love felt like. Re-experiencing this feeling again made her linger.

Seeing the heartwarming scene between the mother and daughter, the others refrained from disturbing them.

After a while, Liu Mei wiped away Xiaoxue's tears.

She hugged Xiaoxue and boasted to Xia Donghai and the others, "What are you all sitting there for? Hurry up and get ready so I can go cook for my daughter."

"I want to eat hairy crabs."

"I want sweet and sour pork ribs, braised carp..."

"Go away, go away. I'm cooking for Xiaoxue, and you two have already ordered food."

The atmosphere at home has returned to harmony.

The relationship between Liu Mei and Xiao Xue has reached a critical point, and it will likely only take a little time or an event to break through it.

…………

the next day.

Xia Xue was in a good mood when she arrived at school.

Qiao Yingzi and Lin Miaomiao, who were best friends, were puzzled, so they went to Xia Ze to ask about Xiao Xue's situation.

After learning what had happened in their family, the two found it very interesting and were also happy for Xiaoxue.

"I told you Aunt Liu Mei wasn't that kind of person."

"Yes, although I don't have much contact with your mother, I can tell she's a good person."

"Lin Miaomiao, your mother is actually a good person too," Xia Ze said to Lin Miaomiao with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes.

Is Wang Shengnan a good person?

Just kidding, she might be a nice person to outsiders, but to her, she's practically a devil from hell!

"To be honest, I really miss my mom. I don't know what they've been busy with these past few days, they haven't called me at all."

"Do you miss your mom or the delicious meals she cooks?" Xia Ze saw right through Lin Miaomiao's thoughts.

She, being such a foodie, thinks more about the food Wang Shengnan makes than about Wang Shengnan herself.

Seeing that she had been exposed, Lin Miaomiao stubbornly said, "I miss both, but I miss my mom more."

Xia Ze was too lazy to expose her.

It won't be long before this guy has to see Wang Shengnan every day.

The apartment downstairs from his had been cleaned and wasn't renovated, but Wang Shengnan and Lin Dawei didn't care.

The reason the two hadn't called Lin Miaomiao these past few days was because they'd been busy moving.

Now that most of the furniture has been moved in, it will probably be completely moved in in another two or three days.

"Xia Ze, I need your help again today." At this moment, Qiao Yingzi walked to Xia Ze's side with a pleading expression.

Xia Ze smiled.

If Qiao Yingzi took the initiative to ask for help, it must be related to Song Qian again. Could it be another gift from Qiao Weidong?

He was right.

Qiao Yingzi began, "My dad bought me a new telescope, but my mom has been getting stricter lately, reducing the time I can spend observing the stars each day, so I'm thinking..."

“Sure, you can put it on my balcony.” Xia Ze certainly wouldn’t refuse Qiao Yingzi’s request.

Besides, it was a small matter, so I helped if I could.

However, Song Qian is becoming increasingly strict, and has even started to control the time Qiao Yingzi spends observing the starry sky.

If she were in her senior year of high school, they'd probably take away even her telescope.

"Thank you! Then I'll come to your room tonight." Qiao Yingzi smiled sweetly and said happily.

These words made Xia Ze gasp.

What does it mean to go to his room?

The more I hear this, the more awkward it sounds. Anyone who didn't know better would think the two of them were about to do something in the room.
