Going back to being twenty, taking her heartbroken son to a massage parlor.

These words only fueled Guo Rong's anger to the extreme.

She finally realized what was happening!

So Xia Yiyi's rambling training just now was specially prepared for her!

"Dumbass's force!"

Guo Rong roared, and her free hand shot out with lightning speed, precisely grabbing Xia Yiyi's neck.

"Did you already know? You conspired with me to lie to me!"

"You're a slut too, I'll pinch you too!"

Guo Rong exerted force with both arms, grabbing Jiang Yiyao with her left hand and Xia Yiyi with her right, instantly staging a grassland chokehold kill, going completely berserk!

Liao Yaqin, who had been silent until now, watched helplessly as her group of girlfriends instantly fell apart, and exclaimed:

"Hey, why don't you guys make a video call first to ask about the situation?"

"Stop pinching! Yiyao is foaming at the mouth!!"

……

at the same time.

Jiangcheng University, faculty apartment.

The atmosphere in the restaurant was somewhat peaceful and serene.

Steaming hot dumplings were served; they were filled with pork and scallions.

Su Mu, Xia Lanlan, Shang Xiuyan, and Su Zhiling, the family of four, sat around the dining table.

The tape over Su Zhiling's mouth had been removed, but she pursed her lips, remained silent, and her eyes were full of resistance.

Xia Lanlan and Shang Xiuyan exchanged a glance, each picked up a dumpling, and enthusiastically offered it to her mouth.

"Doubao, let's eat dumplings."

"My dear daughter, ah—open your mouth and taste your second mother's cooking."

Su Zhiling turned her head to one side and squeezed out three words through her teeth.

"I won't eat it."

next second.

Without a word, two pairs of chopsticks stuffed two dumplings into her mouth at the same time.

Su Zhiling's resistance came to an abrupt end the moment her mouth was stuffed full.

Well!

She froze completely.

All the struggle and resistance I had prepared were overwhelmed by the rich and domineering aroma of minced meat.

good to eat.

It's so delicious it's almost too good to be true.

It's just ordinary seasoning, a very homely flavor, but for some reason, when combined, it creates a wonderful chemical reaction.

A taste she had never experienced before.

Su Mu, that old man, is too busy going to work and making money to cook.

Her biological mother, Jiang Yiyao, never lifted a finger and couldn't even tell which way the kitchen door faced.

From childhood to adulthood, Su Zhiling either ate takeout or ate in the school cafeteria.

This was the first time in her life that she had eaten food that tasted like her mother's cooking.

My eyes inexplicably felt hot, and tears almost welled up and fell uncontrollably.

Seeing her dazed expression, Xia Lanlan smiled gently and asked with concern.

"My dear daughter, is it because your second mother's cooking isn't good?"

Shang Xiuyan blinked her big, watery eyes and leaned closer.

"Doubao, don't you like this filling?"

Su Zhiling's mouth was stuffed full, and she mumbled something indistinctly.

"...I want more."

The voice was very soft, carrying a hint of barely perceptible grievance.

Xia Lanlan and Shang Xiuyan exchanged a glance, both seeing a smile in each other's eyes.

Get it!

Shang Xiuyan's eyes darted around, and she immediately thought of something.

She knew that Su Zhiling liked sweets.

She picked up a dumpling and rolled it in a small dish that had been prepared beforehand, which contained bright red strawberry jam.

"Here, Doubao, try this."

Shang Xiuyan fed Su Zhiling dumplings covered in strawberry jam.

"This is a special version made by my stepmother; I'm sure you'll like it."

Su Zhiling opened her mouth with a mixture of disbelief and skepticism.

The moment the dumpling enters your mouth, the savory pork flavor blends with the sweet and sour strawberries, creating an unprecedented taste sensation that explodes on your tongue.

It's sweet, but not cloying at all.

This... is delicious too!

Second Aunt's dumplings are a source of warmth.

My stepmother's dumplings are sweet.

Su Zhiling looked at the two women in front of her, one gentle and virtuous, the other sweet and charming, both looking at her with a gaze she had never felt before.

A hard corner of my heart quietly collapsed.

Is this what double the motherly love is?

It doesn't seem like it's unacceptable.

Su Mu smiled smugly as he looked at the gentle expression on his daughter's face, which had softened after being conquered by the delicious food.

He cleared his throat and began to boast.

"How is it?"

"Now you know the benefits of having a gentle mother, right?"

"Dad found you a stepmother, it's all for your own good, for the sake of this family."

Su Mu spoke with a serious expression.

Indeed, a family needs a virtuous woman to maintain harmony.

The warmth that Su Zhiling had just felt was instantly shattered by Su Mu's words.

She swallowed the dumpling in her mouth, rolled her eyes at Su Mu, and started spitting out her annoyance.

"Old Deng! Stop making excuses for your womanizing!"

"Finding one is one thing, but what do you mean by finding two?"

"Can you give them enough love? Are you able to manage?"

"You're a complete and utterly irresponsible scumbag!"

Although her opinion of her two mothers' cooking skills and attitudes had improved, her hatred for her biological father was ingrained in her bones.

Shang Xiuyan quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Doubao, don't talk about your dad like that..."

Su Mu waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, with a calm smile on his face as if he had seen through the ways of the world.

"I'm not a womanizer."

"My love is just overflowing."

"And they just happened to catch it for me."

"Therefore, my love is enough for everyone."

Su Zhiling was completely stunned by these shocking remarks.

She opened her mouth, and after a long while, she managed to squeeze out a few words through her teeth.

"Old Deng, you're shameless!"

Ring ring—

Just then, Su Zhiling's phone rang.

She picked it up and saw the words "Dear Mom" ​​flashing on the screen.

Jiang Yiyao's video call!

Su Zhiling's eyes lit up; reinforcements had arrived!

She wanted to show her own mother what kind of absurd life her irresponsible ex-husband was living!

So what if they're divorced? It's only natural for a mother to discipline a father!

She pressed the call button without hesitation.

"Mom! You have to do something about this..."

She froze before she could finish speaking.

On the phone screen, instead of her mother's elegant face, three faces, distorted by anger and resentment, appeared side by side in front of the camera.

The backdrop is an endless green grassland, and the wind makes their hair dance wildly like crazy people.

Guo Rong, Jiang Yiyao, Xia Yiyi.

The three people's large faces filled the entire screen.

The atmosphere in the restaurant instantly became eerie.

Xia Lanlan was the first to react. She saw her older sister and waved to her in surprise.

"elder sister!"

Su Zhiling looked at the face in the middle of the screen that looked like it was about to breathe fire, and weakly called out.

"……mom."

Shang Xiuyan then sweetly called out to Guo Rong, whose face had turned a purplish-red, on the far left of the screen.

"Mother!"

Su Mu looked left and right.

Good guy.

Everyone has something to shout.

He was the only one who didn't have it.

That makes me seem so out of place.

So he leaned forward, gave Guo Rong, who was about to explode with anger on the screen, a shy and bashful smile, and called out softly in an almost coquettish tone.

"Mother."

After shouting, Su Mu even covered half of his face with his hand in a pretentious manner, looking embarrassed.

oops.

I haven't called my mother-in-law "mother-in-law" in years.

I am indeed a little reserved.

Shy and hesitant.

On the other side of the screen, the wind on the grassland seemed to freeze instantly.
