Chapter 354 Going Back with Them
Ruolan's gaze fell on Gu Yinshen's worried face, and she reached out and placed the remaining oranges in his hand.
"Don't you want to eat anymore?" Gu Yinshen asked, puzzled.
Seeing Ruolan's actions, Mengmeng's earlier thought seemed to be confirmed.
Mom really doesn't like oranges!
Disappointment immediately appeared on her small face.
She had intended to give Ruolan something to eat to ease her unpleasant mood, but she messed it up and ended up giving her fruit that she didn't like.
"Mengmeng peeled this orange, have a segment," Ruolan explained.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yinshen immediately broke off a piece, put it in his mouth, and then returned the rest to Ruolan.
Ruolan stared at his chewing mouth and couldn't wait to ask, "How does it taste?"
Swallowing the juice from the orange, Gu Yinshen replied with a smile, "The oranges that Mengmeng peeled are so sweet!"
Hearing the same response as Xie Yumin, Ruolan ate two more pieces in disbelief.
Just like the first bite, I didn't taste any sweetness at all. On the contrary, the more I put in my mouth, the more obvious the bitterness became.
Could it be that there's something wrong with her taste buds?
Ruolan looked at the grapes on the coffee table, leaned forward, tore off a grape, and put it directly into her mouth without even peeling it.
It's sweet! It's actually sweet!
Compared to the oranges she had just eaten, she could clearly taste the sweetness of the grapes.
She looked up at Mengmeng, who looked dejected, with a puzzled expression.
“Mengmeng, Mom…” Ruolan realized that her actions had unintentionally hurt Mengmeng’s good intentions, and quickly explained, “Mom really likes the oranges that Mengmeng peels.”
Hearing the commotion from the sofa, Tian Tian couldn't help but turn around to see what was going on.
He thought peeling oranges would please Ruolan, but he ended up messing things up!
Sweetie felt a surge of joy and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Her behavior instantly displeased Gu Yinshen, who stood up from the sofa with a dark face and scolded Tian Tian, "What are you laughing at?"
Sweetie wiped the smile from her face, shook her head, and turned her head back.
Gu Yinshen didn't bother to deal with her. He looked down at Ruolan, who had been acting strangely all night, and said, "Are you tired? Let me take you upstairs to rest."
Ruolan looked at Mengmeng, unsure how to explain her behavior to Mengmeng. After all, anyone who saw it would think she didn't like the oranges Mengmeng had peeled.
This time she didn't refuse and stood up from the sofa.
Seeing Gu Yinshen helping Ruolan upstairs, Xie Yumin looked at Xie Beiling somewhat uncomfortably.
It was already quite late, and they should have gone home by now. But she wanted to stay with Mengmeng a little longer, and didn't know how to continue staying.
"Yu Mian, are you tired? Do you want to go back and rest?" Xie Beiling asked.
"Beiling, can we stay a little longer?" Xie Yumin asked, embarrassed.
"Do you want to play with Mengmeng a little longer?" Xie Beiling asked.
Xie Yumin nodded.
Sweetie turned her head again and looked at Xie Yumin with disdain.
She cherishes Mengmeng even more than Ruolan does right now, which must make Mengmeng feel very proud!
Looking up at the second floor, Tian Tian saw that Gu Yinshen had been up there for a while and hadn't come down yet. She couldn't help but bend down and pat her sore legs before turning around and walking towards the restaurant.
She pulled out a dining chair, plopped down, and reached out to pick up the snack that Mengmeng hadn't finished eating.
She was starving in the middle of nowhere, so she picked up some snacks and wolfed them down.
The sound of eating came over, and Xie Beiling said to Xie Yumin, "You stay with Mengmeng, I'll go check on her."
"Okay," Xie Yumin replied, moving her body slightly closer to Mengmeng.
When Xie Beiling arrived at the restaurant, Tian Tian was getting up to get juice from the refrigerator in the kitchen. When she came out and saw Xie Beiling sitting in the seat she had just been sitting in, her face instantly darkened.
“This is my seat!” Tian Tian pointed to the chair under Xie Beiling.
It's just a chair, what's wrong with sitting on it for a while?
Seeing Tian Tian's petty and narrow-minded appearance, Xie Beiling sat there without moving.
"Didn't I tell you to stand there and reflect on your mistakes? You're actually enjoying snacks and juice here," Xie Beiling teased.
He doesn't like Tian Tian, and they don't see each other often. He won't be like Gu Yinshen and Ruolan, worrying about making her angry and choosing to obey her.
Seeing Tian Tian's discomfiture, Xie Beiling continued, "You should go over there and think about whether you want to tell us everything that happened this afternoon, otherwise you won't even be allowed to go back to your room to sleep tonight."
This is the Gu family home, not the Xie family home. Does it give someone with the surname Xie the right to point fingers and tell people what to do?
Sweet words couldn't win against Xie Beiling, so she didn't argue with him. Instead, she pulled out a chair next to her, sat down, and continued eating snacks and drinking juice.
Okay, that's pretty clever!
Seeing that Tian Tian was ignoring him, Xie Beiling reached out and took the snacks from in front of her. "Are you sure you don't want to go stand in the corner as punishment?"
"Mind your own business!" Sweetie angrily threw down her juice and stormed upstairs.
Gu Yinshen was busy asking Ruolan, who was feeling unwell, so he didn't have time to pay attention to Tiantian.
Watching the person disappear around the corner of the stairs, Xie Beiling snorted coldly, not seeming to mind. His gaze fell on the two people on the sofa who looked like mother and daughter, and a surge of emotion welled up within him.
If he could get together with Xie Yumin and have a lively and lovely child like Mengmeng, how happy his life would be!
"Beiling!" Xie Yumin turned around and saw Xie Beiling looking at her. She called out, "Come here!"
"Coming." Xie Beiling replied, immediately standing up from his chair.
Xie Yumin had just chatted with Mengmeng and tried to ask her if she wanted to come with them to Xie Beiling's place for a few days, and Mengmeng actually agreed.
Fearing that Mengmeng might regret it, she quickly called out to Xie Beiling, urging him to leave the Gu family as soon as possible.
Seeing Xie Yumin dancing with joy, Xie Beiling asked in confusion, "Why are you so happy?"
“Mengmeng is coming back with us!” Xie Yumin said excitedly.
Xie Beiling thought he had misheard, so he repeated, "Where are you coming back with us?"
"Let's go back to our place!" Xie Yumin stood up from the sofa, excitedly grabbing Mengmeng's hand, not giving her a chance to back out.
After carefully considering those words, Xie Beiling looked at Mengmeng again and asked, "Are you really coming back with us?"
"Yes, Mengmeng wants to go to Uncle Ling's place to stay with Aunt Yumian for a few days," Mengmeng said.
She felt that Tian Tian's repeated departures without saying goodbye were because of her. If she hadn't been home these past few days, she would have been able to properly build a family bond with Ruolan and Yinshen.
Xie Beiling didn't care why Mengmeng made this decision. He immediately picked Mengmeng up from the ground from Xie Yumin's arms and said, "Let's go back now."
"Should we tell Mom and Dad?" Mengmeng couldn't help but ask.
