Dai Shiyuan sat on the sofa, with the phrase "Shan Yaxin likes women" swirling in her mind.
She couldn't understand when Shan Yaxin had become a lesbian, and who the woman she liked was.
As she realized the latter question, Dai Shiyuan was both curious and had an indescribable sense of frustration.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Shan Yaxin returned. There was an obvious fatigue between her beautiful eyebrows.
"Sister Yaxin, are you okay?" Dai Shiyuan stood up and asked with concern.
As she spoke, she subtly looked Shan Yaxin up and down.
Having not seen each other for almost half a month, Dai Shiyuan noticed that Shan Yaxin had lost weight and no longer had her previous radiant appearance.
"I'm fine, sorry for keeping you waiting," Shan Yaxin gently curled her lips, walked over and hugged Dai Shiyuan, and softly said, "Xiaoyuan, happy new year."
Shan's mother saw this scene and was about to speak out to stop it. However, she suppressed her fear as it was the new year, but her eyes showed more sadness when she looked at Shan Yaxin.
Shan Yaxin naturally felt Shan's mother's disagreement. She quickly withdrew her hand and took out a red envelope from her pocket to hand to Dai Shiyuan, smiling and saying, "Xiaoyuan, this is for you."
"No need..." Dai Shiyuan wanted to refuse, but seeing Shan Yaxin's determined gaze, she decided to accept it. "Thank you, Sister Yaxin."
Shan Yaxin also took out a red envelope and gave it to Shan Xiaoqing, saying a few festive words.
Seeing that Dai Shiyuan did not notice anything unusual, Shan's mother breathed a sigh of relief, but still had some anxiety in her heart. She then began to serve the dishes with a smile.
"These dishes look very rich and delicious." Dai Shiyuan smelled the food and couldn't help but praise with a happy smile. "Auntie, your cooking is really good."
"It's just some home-cooked dishes, Xiaoyuan, don't be polite, eat more," Shan's mother said kindly, with a loving smile in her eyes.
"Xiaoyuan, try this dish. It's my mom's specialty," Shan Yaxin picked up a piece of fish and put it in Dai Shiyuan's bowl as soon as she finished speaking.
Shan's mother's expression changed suddenly. While Dai Shiyuan lowered her head to taste the food, she glanced at Shan Yaxin, and the warning in her eyes was clear.
Ignoring Shan's mother's reaction, Shan Yaxin picked up another chopstick of food and put it in Dai Shiyuan's bowl again. "This dish is also good."
"Sister Yaxin, don't feed me. You must be hungry after a long day. Eat quickly," Dai Shiyuan smiled and persuaded, picking up a piece of meat and giving it to Shan Yaxin.
Seeing this, Shan's mother was surprised, and almost dropped her chopsticks.
"Mom, you've worked hard. Have some meat, Xiaoqing will eat more vegetables," said Shan Yaxin, as she picked up some vegetables for both of them.
Considering it was a rare occasion for the New Year, Shan mother did not refuse but barely spoke during the meal.
Dai Shiyuan's stomach had been growling for a while and with the delicious food that Shan mother had prepared, she kept her head down and focused on eating, with no extra energy to pay attention to anyone else.
The New Year's Eve dinner was relatively harmonious and enjoyable.
After dinner, Shan mother pulled Shan Yaxin to wash the dishes while Dai Shiyuan and Shan Xiaoqing sat on the couch eating fruit.
"Xioaxin, Xiaoyuan already knows that you like women," Shan mother turned on the faucet and whispered in a low voice over the sound of running water.
Seeing Shan mother's nervous expression, Shan Yaxin smiled lightly with fearlessness in her eyes, "It's fine like this..."
"What's fine?" Shan mother couldn't help but scold, noticing her volume had increased, she quickly glanced outside and lowered her voice to advise, "Although Xiaoyuan doesn't hate that you like women, if she knows the truth, she will definitely dislike you. Xioaxin, we can't do anything that will hurt Miss Dai. You absolutely can't ruin her..."
"Mom, I know my boundaries," Shan Yaxin interrupted, banging the dishes loudly.
Affected by Zuo Fan's incident, her mood wasn't good to begin with. Now, being scolded made her a little impatient.
Shan mother heard the coldness in her words and knew that Shan Yaxin didn't take her words to heart.
But she couldn't control this woman anymore.
"You know your boundaries, that's good," Shan mother sighed sadly, silently washing the dishes.
As soon as they finished washing the dishes, Shan Xiaoqing ran from the living room to the kitchen with a happy face, "Mom, sister, big sister promised to stay and watch the New Year's Eve with us."
Shan mother was stunned, her surprise outweighing her joy.
Shan Yaxin smiled happily, wiped her hands, and walked out of the kitchen.
