Xie Yunjin wasn't wrong. They had been together all this while, and suddenly being apart from Lu Jiao for the whole day made him absent-minded several times. He kept subconsciously thinking about Lu Jiao - what she was doing, eating, and if she missed him too.
Lu Jiao turned to see Xie Yunjin's eager gaze upon her, feeling a slight pang of guilt because she hadn't thought of him at all that day. But she felt she couldn't be too straightforward; it might hurt his feelings.
As Lu Jiao was about to give a short response, the four little ones rushed in like happy little birds, hearing what Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao were saying. They dashed straight to Xie Yunjin upon entering.
"Daddy, we missed you."
"Yes, at lunch, I was so worried about you that I ate one less drumstick than usual."
Lu Jiao looked at the Second Born, utterly speechless, thinking of rolling her eyes. He might have missed eating one drumstick today, but he still had two drumsticks.
