But who knew that this trip would not see him return until eight o'clock in the evening, when Li Xianglu brought out a big bowl of wontons for Qin Xi and two cold dishes for him to eat.
Qin Xi was ravenous after being busy all afternoon, running back and forth. He ate with gusto while the two children watched with longing eyes.
Li Xianglu helplessly scooped out two wontons and some chicken broth from Qin Xi's bowl into smaller bowls, giving one each to the little ones. Seeing they still appeared unsatisfied, she shook her head and said, "That's all, there's no more, daddy needs to eat."
Seeing this, Qin Xi thought the children were still hungry and was about to give them more, but Li Xianglu gave him a look and placed the youngsters on the bed to play. She then sat on a stool, watching the children and inquiring about the afternoon's events.
