People who would come to visit you for New Year's would always go on and on, making small talk and exchanging blessings. Even if the other person didn't speak, they would put on a one-man show and talk for half a day by themselves. Song Xuanlin's gaze was slightly lowered, and he occasionally made a polite response. Discreetly, his eyes would wander around aimlessly as he took in his surroundings from the corners of his eyes. His gaze shifted from the dust in the air that was currently visible due to the sun's rays to Song Jiabao's father's raised shirt collar.

They were still chatting over on that side. Song Xuanlin gave a quiet response before turning around, intending to head outside for a breath of fresh air. He took a step back and turned his head around, the rest of his body trailing after. His torso and the hand holding his cell phone had only shifted halfway when he suddenly paused. At the same time, his brows furrowed.

His eyes had fallen onto a scene not too far away from him. He could still hear the voice of the person who he had been talking to just now as well as the conversation on the sofa behind him.

"Jiabao had found himself a girlfriend last year, but neither his mother nor I believe that she's a good fit for him. When it comes to choosing a wife, young men like him aren't thoughtful enough. They only realize how important it is to marry someone of equal status when they're older. Speaking of which, Xuanlin is already so big. Has he brought a girl home yet? If he's single, my wife and I can help him look around to see if there are any suitable women."

"There's no hurry." There was a trace of a smile in Li Nianan's voice. "He's not that old yet. Nowadays, getting married at thirty is still considered early. We won't rush him."

"That won't do." Song Jiabao's father said, "Men need to first establish their families before establishing their careers. Even Xuanhe's had a few boyfriends already. And yet, Xuanlin hasn't even had one."

The conversation from the sofa clearly transmitted through the air and into Song Xuanlin's ears. Song Xuanlin had listened to it quietly, his gaze still focused on the sight in front of him. His frown intensified.

"He bao is young and likes to have fun." Li Nianan's tone was very doting. "That child has been spoiled rotten by us since childhood. What he had said regarding Jiabao really wasn't nice. I hope you won't hold it against that child."

"We won't." Song Jiabao's mother laughed. "Our Jiabao felt guilty towards him. That's why he had rushed over here as soon as he had recovered a bit to apologize. Speaking of which, I wonder what they're talking about outside. They're still not back yet...Should I go take a look...?"

"Boys." Song Jiabao's father interrupted his wife. "They don't tend to hold grudges against each other after a fight. Besides, they have grown up together. And, they're cousins. It's normal for them to talk a bit longer after making up. You'll only disturb them if you were to head over."

"You're right, hahahahaha." Song Jiabao's mother covered her mouth and laughed.

As he listened to the conversation, Song Xuanlin's lips had curled up lightly. Soon after, he soundlessly coughed into his fist, and he fixed his expression.

"It's a bit cold today." Song Jiabao's mother said in a concerned tone after she had stopped laughing. "It's snowing hard outside too. I wonder if they'll get cold, being out there."

Li Nianan beamed. "You're right. If you're worried, we can go look for them."

"You two don't need to go." Song Jiabao's father smiled and stood up. "You two continue chatting. I just so happen to want to have a smoke. I'll go see how they are on the way."
