Upon hearing that, Dabao put on a stern expression and fell silent.

His reaction made Ning Ran feel bad.

Maybe I shouldn't let a child make such a decision. It's too much pressure for him.

After giving it some thought, Dabao nodded. “Mommy, Daddy's the one who made you angry, so I'll support you.”

Ning Ran hugged him, feeling terrible on the inside. “Thank you, my boy.”

Although she promised to respect his decision, she would still feel sad if Dabao insisted on returning to Nan Chen's side instead of staying here.

Thankfully, Dabao did not say that, and Ning Ran was grateful for it.

“Mommy, I'll always side with you. If he did something wrong, then he should apologize to you. But if Daddy calls and asks where we are, I have to tell him the truth. I can't lie to him. Besides, you said Daddy loves us as well. He'll definitely be worried if he finds we're gone and can't contact us,” Dabao stated his additional condition.

Ning Ran agreed, “You're right. If he asks, you can tell him. But if he doesn't, then don't call him, okay?”

“All right,” Dabao promised happily.

“Let's begin cooking, then.”

Ning Ran felt much better after receiving Dabao's support.

It was a good thing that someone often helped to clean and maintain the house. Although it had been unoccupied for a long time, the facilities were still functioning well. Hence, they could cook as usual with no issues.

While Ning Ran was cooking in the kitchen, she thought about her mother.

Back then, Zhang Ru would occasionally find time to cook while Ning Ran would stand by the kitchen door and watch the former. It gave Ning Ran a secure and blissful feeling.

Now that Ning Ran was a mother herself and was preparing food for her children, she could relate to her mother's feelings.

Sadly, Zhang Ru was gone before Ning Ran could repay the former's kindness.

In fact, Ning Ran had never prepared a meal for her mother before.

The thought of that made Ning Ran's eyes well up with tears.
