บท 480: Chapter 481: Agreed, But Hesitantly [19/25]

However,

while  Yumo was trying to make sense of the little girl's actions and thinking about how to respond to Mengxi's request, the cute Yuan'er quietly slipped out from behind the kitchen door. Sneaking around, she made her way behind the sofa and slowly peeked out:

"Does this Big Sister have nowhere to stay?... she looks so pitiful... Sister Yu, we have a vacant room here, why don't we let her stay with us for a while?"

The head-popping Yuan'er quickly blinked her big eyes, which were of different colors - one red and one blue, casting an adorable look toward Yumo.

Due to Yumo's prior instructions,

when facing 'outsiders', Yuan'er consciously refrained from using the term 'mommy', and instead referred to Yumo as 'Sister Yu'. However, as she was not accustomed to it, the word 'sister' sounded a bit awkward when coming from Yuan'er.

This awkwardness was inadvertently caught by our Mengxi.
