Tokyo: The story begins with a confession.

The card players also expressed their understanding.

Less than 20 minutes later, he heard the sound of a key opening the door. Lin Yi sat up instantly and rushed into the bedroom.

Uesugi Kenji almost couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, and walked to the door.

The door opened, and Zhao Wanrou walked in. Upon seeing Shangshan Qian, she immediately went over and hugged him, saying, "You child, it's been so long since you came back. You must have lost weight while you were away."

Zhao Wanrou, who is less than 1.6 meters tall, only reached Uesugi Kenichi's chest when she hugged him.

Kenichi Uesugi bent over and hugged her back.

Actually, he's not thin at all; he's much stronger than before. It's just that his mother always feels a bit worried about him being away from home for so long.

Uesugi Kenichi looked at his mother, Zhao Wanrou. She was 43 years old this year. Fortunately, she was well-maintained and the years had not left too many marks on her face. However, the wrinkles between her eyebrows reminded Uesugi Kenichi that she was also getting old.

Kenichi Uesugi didn't know why he suddenly had so many feelings. It was like one day you suddenly became sensible and you found that the people and things that used to be in your sight every day had suddenly become different from before. In fact, nothing had changed; what had changed was your own perspective on things.

Zhao Wanrou touched Uesugi Kenichi's face and said, "You must be starving. Mom will cook you some food." She then walked towards the kitchen.

Uesugi Kenichi grabbed her arm: "Mom, don't rush, come sit down, I have something to tell you about 870."

You silly child, let's talk about it after you've eaten.

Uesugi Kenichi ignored her and pulled Zhao Wanrou down to sit on the sofa.

The bedroom door was knocked open, and Lin Yi tiptoed out.

Uesugi Kenichi smiled and said, "Mom, look who's that behind you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wanrou turned around to look behind her.

"Wife," Lin Yi laughed heartily, like a child who had successfully pulled off a prank.

Zhao Wanrou's face lit up with joy the moment she saw Lin Yi, but then her expression darkened: "Why did you come back?"

Lin Yi sat down next to her and put his arm around Zhao Wanrou's shoulder: "You can have Xiaoyu tell you why I came back later."

Zhao Wanrou glanced at Lin Yi suspiciously, then pushed his hand away.

Lin Yi reluctantly removed his hand: "Go cook, I only ate a bowl of instant noodles for lunch, I'm starving."

Zhao Wanrou snorted and said without turning her head, "I'm not going. Whoever is hungry can go make it themselves."

Lin Yi's face immediately fell: "Look, not only did I not eat, but Xiaoyu didn't eat either. Are you going to let Xiaoyu go hungry too?"

Kenichi Uesugi had already moved to another sofa and was sitting there, not wanting to be subjected to his parents' public display of affection.
