章節 521: You Will Know the Consequences

Mu Li suddenly furrowed her eyebrows. "Huh? What did you address me as?"

"Oh!" Xuxu was startled and realized what she had said. "….Mother."

She really couldn't bring herself to say it over the phone. It was even harder now that she had to say it while facing her. She immediately bowed her head feeling all bashful.

Mu Li saw that Xuxu was blushing. She solemnly quipped, "You have to get used to it. If the next time you make this mistake again, I'll punish you."

Xuxu nodded and responded with an 'uh'.

"I've waited for years for you to address me as Mother. If your grandmother was still…" Mu Li accidentally spoke of Grandmother, and she hastily cut off mid-way. She changed the topic. "Go up and say your greetings to your Father. I'll go to the kitchen to make sure everything is ready."

She released Xuxu's hand. The latter agreed with a smile, and she happily went up the stairs.
