Chapter Thirty-Five: Excitement

After finishing the meal and cleaning up...

Izuki waited a while, until almost eight o'clock, before asking Rena if she had finished her homework.

Yixue finished her homework early and rested in the living room while watching TV. She waited for Lingna to finish her homework before they went to the supermarket together.

"It's done." Rena breathed a sigh of relief in the room, finally succeeding.

She shoved her pen on the table, leaving her homework scattered haphazardly on the desk without even putting it back in her bag, and rushed out of the room, bumping right into the doorway. Itsuki was about to come in to ask Rena how her homework was going.

"How's the homework coming along?" Yi Yue asked.

Reina hummed happily, "Of course I've finished everything!" She grabbed Itsuki's hand and led her outside, saying, "Hurry up and go to the supermarket, hurry up and go to the supermarket!"

"Alright, alright." Izuki smiled, patted Rena's head, and asked again to confirm, "Are you sure you've finished everything?"

"Of course! Don't you believe me?" Rena pouted unhappily.

"Of course I believe you." Izuki smiled, though she was actually a little afraid that Reina hadn't finished her homework or had just written something carelessly to fool her.

But seeing that Rena seemed a little unhappy, he felt embarrassed to go and check on her directly, afraid of hurting her self-esteem and making her feel that he doubted and distrusted her.

"I believe she'll be more self-aware; I can't possibly follow her around forever."

Yi Yue thought to herself, then smiled and said, "Let's go then."

"Mmm!" Reina smiled and took Itsuki's hand.

Upon entering the living room, Yi Yue said to Yi Xue, "Let's go."

Yixue turned off the TV.

Check that all the lights and appliances in your home are turned off.

Only after confirming that there were no problems did I go out.

The streets were bustling with activity. People were coming and going, and the lights were bright.

Yi Yue didn't drive; she chose to walk.

The supermarket isn't far, only two or three blocks away, a ten or twenty-minute walk.

Taking walks occasionally is a good way to get some exercise.

Reina ran ahead excitedly, somewhat annoyed that Izuki and Izuki were walking too slowly behind her.

She hasn't been out lately, she's been so bored at home. Now that she's finally out, she's like a canary released from its cage, chirping incessantly.

Behind Reina, Yixue gently grasped Yiyue's hand, slowly wrapped her arms around Yiyue's arms, and rested her head on them.

Yixue smiled, feeling very happy and joyful.

Yi Yue glanced at Yi Xue, who was leaning against her, but said nothing.

Yi Yue was already used to Yi Xue's affectionate gestures.

He simply took it as his daughter being affectionate, a sign of the good relationship between father and daughter.

Yi Yue gently patted Yi Xue's head, and Yi Xue responded by gently rubbing against her, her face slightly flushed.

Rena, who was walking ahead, turned around with a smile and happened to see this scene.

Yi Xue nestled against Yi Yue's shoulder like a little bird, and Yi Yue gently stroked Yi Xue's head.

They don't seem like siblings, let alone father and daughter; they're more like the intimacy between a boyfriend and girlfriend.

Rena's smile slowly faded, her lips pouting, looking very unhappy. She ran to Itsuki's side, tugged at Itsuki's arm hard, and hugged Itsuki's hand in return.

"Huh?" Itsuki looked at Reina strangely.

Yixue looked up at Lingna beside her with displeasure. Lingna had just pulled Yiyue away from her with a forceful tug.

"Hmph!" Reina stuck out her tongue at Yixue.

Yi Xue smiled calmly, but her slightly trembling hands betrayed her, indicating that she was a little angry.

Izuki patted Rena's head, feeling both amused and helpless at Rena's little gesture.

Reina was a little unhappy that Yixue was sticking to him so closely, feeling as if Yixue had stolen him away.

This kind of little girl-like thinking is easy to guess.

Rena, whose head was being patted by Itsuki, slowly changed from an unhappy expression to a comfortable, slightly squinted eye, like a kitten being petted.

Suddenly noticing Yixue's gaze, Yixue continued to look at Lingna with a smile.

Rena stuck out her little tongue triumphantly.

"Hehe." Red dots appeared on Yixue's forehead.

Yi Yue saw the two of them looking adorable and shook her head with amusement: "Maybe that's just what kids are like."

Yi Yue was already used to the two of them bickering and found it both funny and amusing.

After walking for about ten minutes, we finally arrived at the supermarket entrance.

This supermarket is called Changlong Supermarket, and it's built in a basement.

Going down the escalator, you'll find it blasting cool air from the air conditioner.

I walked for half a day and sweated a lot.

The cold wind blowing made me feel uncomfortable.

As I approached the entrance and looked inside, I saw quite a few people.

Although it wasn't as crowded as on the weekend, there were still quite a lot of people.

Reina excitedly pushed a shopping cart in front of Itsuki.

It was being pushed very fast, and the tires scraped against the ground, making a loud clanging sound.

"I'll push it," Yi Yue said, reaching out to take the cart.

But Rena refused, huffing, "No, I'll push it!" She flatly refused and pushed the bike out.

She prefers to push the cart herself because she can control the pace of the shopping.

You can go buy what you like first.

As Rena pushed the cart, she couldn't help but recall a shopping trip she had taken with Itsuki a long time ago.

I was very young then, but I wasn't a baby who could sit in a car anymore.

She was about five or six years old and kept making a fuss, making Yiyue put her in the shopping cart and push her around.

Rena remembers this incident vividly, and she can't help but smile whenever she thinks about it.

"I really wish I could sit in the shopping cart and have my dad keep pushing me around."

The thought immediately made Rena blush and shake her head. What was she thinking? She was already so old, and she still had such thoughts. How embarrassing!

"But since I can't sit in it, I'll just push the stroller around!"

Rena's thoughts came and went quickly. She put the previous idea aside and another one popped into her head.

Seeing that there were few people ahead, they cleared a path.

Rena took a short run-up, pushed the bike, leaned forward, lifted her feet off the ground, and glided forward using the momentum.

"Ooh!" Rena cried out softly, sliding forward a short distance with the help of the car.

After sliding a short distance, the car slowly came to a stop.

"This is so much fun!" Rena was extremely excited. She glanced around quietly, and no one was paying attention to her. She looked back and saw that Izuki and the others were still behind her.

"Okay, let's do it again!"

Rena found it very interesting and was eager to try it.

He took a few steps back, ran up, pushed off hard, and his feet left the ground, sending him flying with the car.

"Wow, that's so exciting!"

Rena was extremely excited and happy. She pushed off hard and slid forward a few more meters. The bike continued to slide forward, but suddenly she tripped over something, and the bike stumbled. Rena lost control and crashed into the cargo container next to her with a bang.

"Ugh..." Although she managed to brake in time, Rena's belly still bumped into the handle of the shopping cart.

"It hurts..."

Rena was on the verge of tears, noticing the way people around her were looking at her.

She made a bit too much noise, and everyone was staring at her.

Rena was extremely embarrassed, her face turned red, and she endured the pain, pretending to be nonchalant. She straightened up, pushed the bike, and drove it to the back.

Chapter Thirty-Six: Concern Leads to Chaos

"Now you know what pain is!" Yi Yue said, somewhat angrily. He had seen everything clearly from behind and hurriedly caught up.

Rena remained silent, her head bowed.

Yi Yue sighed, her tone softening: "Where does it hurt?"

“This…” Rena pointed to her lower abdomen.

Yi Yue reached out and gently rubbed it, asking as she did so, "How is it now?"

"Hmm, much better," Rena said softly. Actually, when she stood up, it didn't hurt much anymore.

She pretended to be in pain because she was afraid Yi Yue would scold her.

"Is it better now?" Yi Yue asked after rubbing for a while.

"It still hurts a little, let me rub it a little longer." Rena said with her eyes slightly narrowed, somewhat unsatisfied, feeling that Itsuki rubbing her stomach felt very comfortable.

"Rub it yourself!" Seeing Reina's expression, which showed no sign of pain, Izuki angrily removed her hand and returned to the previous topic: "Will you dare to do this again? Pushing the cart around like that, acting recklessly!"

"Ouch, my stomach suddenly hurts again!" Upon hearing Izuki's lecture, Rena immediately pretended to be in pain and clutched her stomach.
