That day, Ning Ran managed to finish work early and got home by eight.

Dabao and Erbao were both on vacation, and the helper looking after them left as soon as Ning Ran was home.

Dinner had been prepared and laid out, but both kids refused to start eating without their mother.

“Have you called your father? Is he joining us for dinner?” Ning Ran asked Erbao.

“I have, but Daddy said he has an appointment and will be home later.”

Soon, the two kids had finished setting the table and urged Ning Ran to have dinner together.

Now that filming had started, Ning Ran had to be even more careful about what she ate so she wouldn't gain weight.

Rice and other carbohydrates were definitely out of the question, which meant she could only stick with vegetables and fruit.

Erbao scooped a spoonful of braised pork and jiggled it in front of Ning Ran. “Mommy, do you want some?”

As much as she wanted it, Ning Ran had to stop herself. “No.”

Erbao immediately burst out laughing. “You're lying, Mommy! I can see you drooling!”

“Stop fooling around,” Dabao scolded as he glared at his sister. “Mommy's tired. Let her have her dinner in peace.”

“Fine,” Erbao whispered and did as instructed.

Thankfully, Ning Ran knew her daughter well. Erbao was used to chattering away, so getting her to stay silent would only make her miserable.

Furthermore, Nan Chen and Ning Ran had been so busy with work that their kids hardly saw or talked to them.

Now that Ning Ran was home early for once, how could she bear to push her kids away?

“All right, let's chat while we eat. You can tell me anything you like,” Ning Ran said with a big smile.

Erbao's eyes lit up at once. “Okay! Let's chat!”
