Yu Lili's face reddened as all her thoughts hit her at once. Faced with everyone's stares around the table, she could feel her face heating up. In a small voice, she called out, "Dad…"
"Louder. Who's going to hear you with that small volume?" Ou Ming asked with playful eyes. In the depth of his eyes were warmth and love.
Yu Lili looked at him, embarrassed, and pinched his leg under the table.
Ou Ming moved to avoid her and asked, "Dad, did you hear it?"
Ou Huojin could tell what his son was up to. He wiped the smile off his face and shook his head. "I didn't hear it. Say it louder. What did you call me?"
Yu Lili replied, "Dad!" The volume wasn't low, but her face was reddening further with every passing moment.
As she addressed her father-in-law, Yu Lili couldn't help but glance toward Jiao Ziqing, wary that her mother-in-law would suddenly have something sharp to say.
