บท 454: Food of the Same Taste

As the Su family did not do right by Shen Xi, the girl soon returned to her adoptive parents. Her adoptive parents loved her like their own. It would be great if Lil' Xi was as blessed too. 

"Mom, let me tell you a secret, but you must promise not to tell Qingli, okay?" Fu Qingxuan acted all mysterious. 

Mama Fu asked while looking at the clothes collection. "What's the secret?" 

"Meanie…" Fu Qingxuan quickly addressed the girl differently before continuing. "I mean, Shen Xi. She said yes to joining me at the lab as my assistant during the summer holidays." 

Hearing about Shen Xi's arrival, Mama Fu did simple math in her head. It was less than two months away. Her eyes reflected glee. "I won't tell your brother. Can I see her?" 

"You can meet her in secret if she comes over, but don't let Qingli know about it," Fu Qingxuan said. 

"Didn't she say she was coming?" Mama Fu thought it was odd.
