บท 304: Rough & Tough

When Hyson followed Mu Chenyan to the kitchen, he asked thoughtfully, "What is he doing here again?"

Mu Chenyan was preparing the ingredients to make the sugar sculpture for Hyson as she answered, "I believe you have the answer to your own question."

Hyson pressed his lips together as his brows knitted up, "He is here for my mum."

"Bingo!" said Mu Chenyan. "I always knew my cutie is smart."

"Well, I learned it all from you," said Hyson. 

"Of course, you learned it from me," Mu Chenyan sounded pleased. "Your mum doesn't have the talent." Hyson narrowed his eyes at her and she rephrased her words, "I mean to say that your mum is a softie. Even after everything she went through in life, she didn't learn how to read people. She is still quite trustful. It really frustrates me how easily she gets attached to people."

"Hey! Those qualities make my mum who she is. And I love her just as she is," said Hyson.
