When it came to the welcoming feast, she instinctively met her mother’s gaze.
It was clear that Luo Qinghan didn't particularly like her uncle either, but out of respect for elders, she wouldn't say anything. As for Li Shuxiao, as his sister, she hadn't felt much about him when they were young, and the past few days had been quite pleasant.
As for her uncle, well, he would be treated as he deserved.
Li Shuxiao hadn't noticed the subtle shift in atmosphere at the dining table. Her mind was solely focused on eating.
It was Lin Xiao who noticed the slight change in the atmosphere.
“Perhaps, I should go pick them up today?” Lin Xiao suddenly said.
Everyone immediately turned to look at Lin Xiao.
“This…”
Li Xin and Luo Buwei dared not agree. Lin Xiao’s status was undeniable. If they let Lin Xiao do this, wouldn't it be like asking a dignified War God to be their family’s chauffeur? If anyone found out, they would likely be reprimanded.
Luo Qinghan also rolled her eyes. She felt her War God husband seemed to have too much free time.
Li Shuxiao directly stated, “Brother-in-law, it’s not appropriate. You have your own work.”
Lin Xiao looked at her strangely, “You know what my work is?”
“Of course!” Li Shuxiao immediately replied.
“Your sister told you?”
Lin Xiao immediately looked at Luo Qinghan, but she subtly shook her head.
“I guessed it myself!”
Li Shuxiao had great faith in her own deduction skills. After all, she had received a full scholarship. Figuring out her brother-in-law’s job shouldn't be difficult.
“Oh…”
Since Luo Qinghan had shaken her head, this girl likely didn't know who he truly was. He asked curiously, “Then tell me, what is my job?”
“What else could it be? Naturally, the youngest bureau chief in Shashi!” Li Shuxiao said with certainty.
“…”
Luo Buwei and Li Xin chose to remain silent.
Luo Qinghan tidied herself up and said, “I’m going to the company first.”
Meanwhile, Xun’er and Luo Bing obediently wiped their mouths. Xun’er tugged on Lin Xiao’s hand, “Daddy, let’s go to kindergarten.”
Lin Xiao’s mouth twitched. Li Shuxiao's mind was indeed sharp, but unfortunately, her imagination wasn't quite there yet.
“How about it, brother-in-law, am I amazing? Didn’t I guess it right? Oh right, it’s deputy chief, not the main one,” Li Shuxiao added, afraid Lin Xiao wouldn’t admit it.
“Amazing, very amazing.”
Lin Xiao said as he led Xun’er and Luo Bing towards the door, “Alright, let’s go to kindergarten. Xun’er, you’re not allowed to bully other children in kindergarten today.”
“Daddy, I told you, I’m a hero! I wouldn't bully others, I would protect them!” Xun’er spoke with great seriousness, showing that she deeply understood the concept of with great power comes great responsibility.
Luo Bing nodded beside her, and in his heart, he added, “I will protect Xun’er.”
“Okay, okay, Xun’er is so amazing. You will definitely become a great hero and protect everyone in the future,” Lin Xiao said, lifting Xun’er into the car. “Now, hero, please eat the egg you secretly hid earlier, or the hero won’t grow tall!”
“Ah…”
Xun’er immediately felt embarrassed and took an egg from her pocket. “But Daddy, eggs don’t taste good…”
“How can you become stronger and taller if you don’t eat eggs?”
