Shen Meng ate with a cold expression on her face, while Mingyang beside her glanced at her and then lowered his head. Ming Liang and Ming Fang exchanged looks but didn't intervene. Tense and on edge, the troublemaker Lu Mingkai was scarfing down his rice deliciously, his face still wet with tears he hadn't wiped away, finishing a bowl of rice in no time.
His stubbornness was almost unbearable to watch.
"After you finish eating, go out and play. Mom is going out for a while and won't be back until later. I've been idle all day and have something to take care of. Mingyang, you have the house keys. If you get tired of playing outside, go home and sleep or do your homework. If something comes up, go find your Brother Xiao Long, got it?"
"Got it."
The children were very obedient, especially when she was angry. Even Lu Mingkai muttered in agreement, but his eyes still showed defiance.
