Song Yan chuckled when she saw her son's red face and his failed attempts at hiding his small figure behind her legs. Seeing his small antics, the remaining sadness lingering in Song Yan's heart finally eased, she picked him up in her arms and nuzzled her nose against his. " Why are you getting shy for now?"
Fu Chen made a tittering sound that was a bit embarrassed and sounded like 'the' before he buried his face in the crook of his mother's neck, hoping to hide from the world.
Song Yan and Wei Mingzhi saw his actions and both of them silently laughed before Wei Mingzhi raised her hand and handed Fu Chen's cap that he has left behind in the park. " I came here to return this, he was playing with the other kids of the building and completely forgot about this cap of his," she smiled as she waved it in the air and pressed it on Fu Chen's head. " Next time make sure that you wear it properly or else it will look like I am bringing back a cooked octopus."
Fu Chen flushed even more because he hardly got a chance to play with his peer mates when he was at the Fu household, he got a bit too excited and ran around the park a lot causing his aunt to chase after him. At that time he didn't think much of it but now that he was back, he couldn't help but think that he played a little too wildly.
"Sorry aunt," he mumbled softly
" I am really sorry about this," said Song Yan as she took the cap off Fu Chen's head and placed it on the cabinet before ruffling his hair. " He must have tired you a lot if he was running around like a spinning top."
"It's all right," said Wei Mingzhi as she patted Fu Chen's back reassuringly that she wasn't mad at him. " It wasn't much trouble compared to the other kids in the park, he was a bit toned down."
She then clapped her hands and smiled apologetically. " Look at this I forgot why I came looking for you, your brother called and he said that he will be having dinner outside with his colleagues in his office, apparently he is going to a well-known restaurant for seafood, all alone." Wei Mingzhi looked pretty angry when she mentioned this. " That's why I was thinking whether we should have a hot pot as well."
Song Yan didn't even get a chance to answer before Fu Chen whipped his head and looked at his aunt while gulping his saliva. He didn't seem to know what it was but it must have sounded tasty to him because he looked excited just at the very thought of having hotpot.
Seeing his excitement, Song Yan couldn't refuse and somewhat embarrassingly said, " If you don't mind, sister-in-law will you let me bring the ingredients for the hotpot?"
Wei Mingzhi smilingly waved her hand as she refused, " There is no need for you to run around after coming back from work, is it? It's just a few things I can still manage." Then she pumped her fists as she hyped herself. " I might not look like it but I have saved a lot of money."
Song Yan didn't have any doubts regarding Wei Mingzhi's ability to save but she still insisted on buying the ingredients, after all, she was having 'A-class' duck meat while her sister-in-law was running around taking care of her son. This was the least she could do.
So, she took Fu Chen to the supermarket that was just around the corner at a distance of ten minutes walk.
Fu Chen: "…" was that a threat?
He looked at his mother back and then hesitated before taking out the black card that his father gave him the last time and said that with an arrogance that was quite similar to Fu Yu Sheng. " Swipe it."
The cashier who just wanted to joke with the young boy: "…." Was this a black card?
