She hurriedly gave Su Yue a look . It confused Su Yue for she didn’t know what Xuxu was trying to tell her .
So, she ignored it and said, “Third sister-in-law, Bai Jing is coming over later . She wants to see the babies . ”
Xuxu smiled and replied, “Sure . She can have dinner with us . I asked the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes . Su Yan will join us for dinner, too . ”
Hearing the confirmation that her brother was back, Su Yue was elated . “When did my brother…”
“Your brother is so busy . I think it’s better if you stay here . He’ll be exhausted if he still has to take care of you after an entire day of work . ”
Xuxu interrupted Su Yue .
Finally, she understood what Xuxu was trying to hint to her earlier . She stuck her tongue out at Xuxu playfully .

Second Uncle thought that she was living at her brother’s place the past few days .
She had almost forgotten that her second uncle and second aunt didn’t know about her relationship with Uncle Ming .
Before Su Yue could reply, Yan Weihong said, “Su Yue, your third sister-in-law is right . Let your brother focus on his work . He still has a lot to learn . ”
Su Yue obediently nodded .
She then grabbed Xuxu’s elbow and said, “Third sister-in-law, let’s go upstairs . ”
Bai Jing was coming over in the evening, and her brother was back as well . She was ecstatic .
She momentarily forgot her unhappiness about Ming Ansheng visiting Meiduo in Country M .

As both of them headed upstairs, Xuxu looked downwards and her gaze swept over to the back of Su Yue’s palms . She saw the red patches on her skin, and the oil, which made it shiny .
She anxiously grabbed her hands and asked, “What happened to your hands?”
Su Yue looked down at her hands as well . She smiled and shook her head, saying, “It’s fine . I accidentally scalded myself when I was getting myself a glass of water . ”
She turned her hands over to hide her wounds from view .
Xuxu didn’t think into it and softly chided, “Why were you so careless? What did you apply to it?”
She grabbed her hands and placed them under her nose . She frowned and said, “You applied sesame oil?”
Su Yue nodded . “I couldn’t find any cream for burns so applied some sesame oil . I checked online, and it states that it helps . ”
“Let’s go . I’ll get you the medicine . ” Xuxu grabbed her wrists and dragged her into the room .
She found the cream for burns and helped her apply it on her wounds .
She held the cotton bud on one hand and held Su Yue’s hand in the other . She carefully applied the cream evenly on her wounds, her actions full of tenderness .
Su Yue stared at Xuxu, warmth coursing through her veins . “Third sister-in-law . ”
She suddenly called .
Xuxu looked up in confusion . She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Yes?”
Su Yue asked, “Does perseverance guarantee success?”
Her bright eyes glimmered and Xuxu’s heart ached .
Xuxu grabbed her wrist, her grip unconsciously tightened around her hands . She pressed her lips and smiled . She softly said, “Perseverance doesn’t guarantee success, but the lack of perseverance guarantees failure . ”
She bowed her head and continued applying the ointment for Su Yue .
Because Su Yue’s hands were fair and dainty, the red marks were extremely obvious . There were even blisters in some areas .
“It’s almost new year’s . Stay at home until then . If he wants to meet you, he has to come over,” Xuxu instructed with an underlying unhappiness in her tone .
Su Yue detected her unhappiness and agreed . She observed Xuxu for a moment before pursing her lips . “When did my brother come back?”
