The next day was New Year’s Day. Zhang Man got up early and went to the living room to make a video call to Zhang Huifang. She was so tired yesterday that she washed and went to bed after the countdown. She didn’t pay attention to her cell phone.

In the morning, she saw that Zhang Huifang had called her several times.

Zhang Huifang and Xu Shang were going to get married. Last night, she spent the New Year at Uncle Xu’s house with Uncle Xu and his mother.

This was also the first time that she had officially stayed over at his house. Zhang Man was still a little worried.

The relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was always a controversial topic.

The relationship between Chen Feier and her mother-in-law was not very good in Zhang Man’s previous life. They never lived together, and there would be conflicts if they did.

Soon, the video call connected. Zhang Huifang was sitting there eating in high spirits. Zhang Man’s eyes were on the white, fat dumpling in her bowl.

Currently, video calls were not as high quality as it was later. It was a little fuzzy. However, through the extremely low pixel quality, she could still see Zhang Huifang’s smiling face.

Zhang Man knew that things were going well. Zhang Huifang hated being angry. Even if she tried to hide her feelings, she couldn’t hide them that well.

Besides, Zhang Man was also worried that there were other people around her mom, so it was not good to ask her questions directly. Thus, she didn’t mention anything.

“Mom, did you eat dumplings this New Year? It looks good.”

Zhang Huifang instantly beamed. She proudly pointed the cell phone at herself, and leaned to the side with the teapot. She picked up a chubby dumpling with her chopsticks, took a bite, and showed her the stuffing.

“Uncle Xu and his mother cooked this with three fillings. It’s really delicious. Zhang Man, it’s a pity that you weren’t here last night. You could have eaten this delicious food. The old auntie cooked a big table of food. The three of us barely ate a quarter of it. We ate until our bellies were almost bursting.”

Zhang Man’s heart felt warm.

It seemed like the old auntie was very kind.

She looked at the dumplings and had a craving for it.

Zhang Huifang swallowed the dumpling and took a sip of the soup. “By the way, Zhang Man, how is your little boyfriend? I called you several times last night, but why didn’t you answer? Did you do anything bad?”

“…”

Zhang Man was speechless. Don’t ask this every single time, okay? To clarify, she didn’t want to do anything bad, but she couldn’t help it.

“Mom, I’m still underage. Can you stop thinking about things that are not suitable for children…”

As soon as Zhang Man said this with annoyance, she saw the youth in the upper right corner of the small video screen with dripping hair and a bathrobe.

The white bathrobe was casually tied with a belt, which looked like it was about to fall. The opening was very low, revealing a sharp clavicle and a large area of his chest.

Zhang Man swallowed her saliva.

The scene was too beautiful, it was too… 18+.

The youth wiped his hair, and probably didn’t realize she was making a video phone call at all. He walked behind her and hugged her. He rubbed her head with his chin, and then lowered his head and  lightly kissed her on the cheek. There was still a bit of early morning sleepiness in his voice.

It was hot and heavy.

“Man Man, why don’t you sleep more?”

Zhang Man: “…”

Zhang Huifang: “…”

This time, she couldn’t keep her innocence. Zhang Man’s cheeks turned red. She watched as Zhang Huifang’s half bitten eaten dumpling fell on the table. She took a deep breath as if she was about to scold her. Zhang Man quickly said, “Mom, Happy New Year, I’ll hang up first.”

Then, she quickly pressed end call with her thumb.

She was embarrassed.

She looked back angrily at the youth who just came in. She grabbed his towel and wrapped his head in it.

“Why did you come out of the shower without getting dressed properly?”

The youth had a deep smile. He grabbed her angry little hands and kissed her on the lips.

“I went back to my room after taking a shower and saw that you were not there… Besides, this is not the first time I have been caught. Don’t worry, Man Man.”

Zhang Man realized that he was talking about the time they were at the hotel in Z City.

She was just about to nod to agree with his logic when she suddenly felt something was wrong.

… Is this called being caught in the act?

Zhang Man raised her hand and pinched his face, which relieved her anger.

On the first day of the New Year, N City was sunny, which had not happened in a long time. At this time, there was sunlight coming through the sliding glass doors that had tulle curtains in the living room, making the huge space bright and warm.

Zhang Man asked the youth to change into his clothes in the room. She opened the curtains and walked to the patio outside the living room.
