I never heard news of their return, so seeing them today is such a delightful surprise.
Qianxun hugged Cute tightly and kissed her several times.
"I missed you so much! Mom just returned to Xicheng and was about to call you tonight, asking when you would come back. It's like telepathy—did you know mom missed you? And where is Brother?"
"Over there!" Cute also kissed Qianxun several times and pointed behind her.
It's not that Jiujiu wasn't seen; it's just that Jiujiu was walking too slowly. When Cute dashed out, Jiujiu was leisurely strolling out, his face bearing a slightly impatient expression.
"What happened to Brother? Did someone upset him?"
With her eyes squinted into crescent moons and giggling, Cute said, "Nope! Brother just woke up from a nap, he's just a bit cranky!"
"Oh…" Qianxun believed her.
Jiujiu does get cranky when he doesn't sleep well.
Little Jiujiu stopped at the doorway, not rushing towards Qianxun like Cute.
