Dong Huiying stared at Liang Yuening with a look of bewilderment.

She was pondering something.

Back then, because of the Resurgence, she left Dongdi and spent most of the time on the way.

Later, she returned to the Chuixue Manor in the east and reunited with Yue Ning, but then the incident with Her Majesty the Empress happened, and after that, she ended up in Dongcui City.

The time she spent with Yue Ning was actually quite short.

Originally, they hadn’t been reunited for long, and on top of that, she only had one set of attention, which had to be spread among six people, so no matter her understanding of Yue Ning, or the time spent with Yue Ning, both were significantly reduced.

He really has gotten smarter!

He’s actually gotten clever?

Under the guise of ’rewarding,’ it’s actually a form of compensation.

As for Yixuan’s earlier ’persuasion,’ if it were the old Yue Ning, he would surely believe it, but now: "..."

Looking at the straightforward expression on the guy’s face, Dong Huiying felt that whether he actually believed it might depend on one’s own interpretation; he might just be playing along.

Yixuan said it, and he just heard it, then conveniently put on an ’I’m so dumb’ face, making everyone think he’s still not very bright like before.

However, if the guys thought his intelligence was the same as before, they couldn’t be sure that this clumsy fox Yue Ning, who only started sharpening his wits in the past year or two, wouldn’t outsmart them later.

Dong Huiying let out a chuckle.

She just felt that from now on, her family’s life might get even livelier.

...

Yue Ning wanted a reward, and Dong Huiying readily agreed.

Anyway, he still needed to endure at the Qin family in the future, so he was allowed to set the terms. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Yue Ning pitifully rattled off a long list of dishes and then said, aggrieved, "I want to eat these!"

Then continued to look pitiably.

"Wife, you left for such a long time before, I’m almost starving, I have to make up for it and eat all the ones I missed."

Dong Huiying: "???"

Looked Yue Ning up and down several times.

Beside them.

Yixuan, looking calm and composed, suddenly remarked, "Fifth Brother, I think this robe on you is a bit tight."

Yue Ning was taken aback, "Little Liu?"

Yixuan continued to scrutinize Fifth Brother’s face.

"Also, Fifth Brother’s face suddenly reminds me of Wu Wang and Little Star."

Yixuan, still looking like a weak Scholar, smiled charmingly and fresh-faced.

"This baby fat is really adorable."

Yue Ning: "!!!"

Suddenly, he felt all deflated.

Earlier, caught up in his pride, he’d almost forgotten he was trying to lose weight.

But, he used to eat a lot and not gain weight, and once he did gain, it was really hard to lose.

Woefully closed his mouth and glanced at his wife with deep resentment.

"Alright then, maybe a little less?"

Drooled a bit.

"I really want to die! Dieting can wait until tomorrow, but I must eat now!"

He looked like a starving ghost reincarnated, with eyes shining with a green light of hunger.

Dong Huiying couldn’t help but laugh.

"Alright, I promise, whatever you say."

Yue Ning immediately bloomed with joy, grinning foolishly, then suddenly turned serious.

"No, no, let’s eat tomorrow."

Snuck a glance at Yixuan, Yue Ning put on the ’I’m the most upright and honest’ expression.

"This is my reward from my wife, so I’m the only one who can eat, no sharing with others!"

Liang·The Others·Yixuan: "..."
