After putting Little Melon to sleep, Xia Meilin went to his room's balcony to get some fresh air.


Lu Yifeng has been gone for a few days now and she couldn't help but miss him. He would call her once or twice a day but despite that, she wanted to see him in person.


At that moment, she was waiting for his call since he hasn't called her that day. She couldn't help but start wondering if he became so busy there. While she was thinking about how he was doing, her phone suddenly rang.


She quickly took it out of her pocket and checked on who was calling.


Just like she was expecting, it was Lu Yifeng. She gulped nervously and stared at it for a short while before she answered the call.


"Ah, Yifeng. Good evening." She greeted. She tried to sound as calm as possible.


"It's afternoon here." His soft and deep chuckling voice was heard from the other line.


"Oh yeah... haha... so, um... why are you calling?" She wanted to scold herself after asking the question. She sounded like she doesn't want him to call!


"Can't I check on you and our son?"


The side of her lips curled up. "We're doing good. Xiao Gua's asleep right now."


"I see."


"Are you... coming back tomorrow?" She asked. "It's our son's birthday you know."


"Mm. I'll be there, don't worry."


"Should I... go and pick you up at the airport?"


With her question, Lu Yifeng ended up smiling, "Did you missed me that much?"


She pursed her lips, Xia Meilin didn't want to admit to him that she does. "Never mind. I still have a lot to do here. I need to help in preparing for Xiao Gua's birthday. His classmates are coming and so are their parents. We will have a lot of guests tomorrow... especially children."


"I know. I have already given Mo Jing orders about what's need to be done. You don't need to work too hard in preparing for it. Leave it to our servants."


"Okay... Will your... other family be attending?" She asked worriedly. She was sure that Jing Yue and Lu Xian Yu was going to attend. His father was already gone and the only other family that she hasn't meet was his grandfather.


"Yes. Mother has told me that grandfather will come. He wants to meet you and our son."


Xia Meilin couldn't help but get nervous. Will his grandfather be a scary person? But Jing Yue and Lu Xian Yu are really nice despite being a part of the Lu family so she can't just judge him all at once without meeting the old man.
