Mindy actually nodded. “Alright, next tI'll ask him directly if there's an opportunity.”
“Wait... are you serious?” Lionel was surprised,
Mindy rolled her eyes. “Mimi, do you have any sugar cubes?”
“Yes, I'll get it,” Miranda said, standing up and heading toward the kitchen.
Once their daughter had left, Mindy turned to Lionel and said, “Mimi lives alone, and this Dr. Jefferson is her
next-door neighbor. They seem to have a good relationship. Of course, | need to ask a few questions and make
sure | know what's going on.”
“That's true,” Lionel agreed, grinning. “My wife is always thorough. Hehe..”
Mindy shot him a glare. “Don’t cozy up to me. If our daughter comes out and sees us, what would she
think?”
“Ahem!” Lionel immediately sat up straight. “Okay, I'll behave.”
The room had already been prepared well in advance. Miranda even got her parents a new bed. The bedsheets

“Mom, Dad, you should rest for a bit, and take a nap. Later, I'll take you out for a walk. You've been to Elgerson a

They cto the city full of joy to witness one of the most important milestones in their daughter's life, only to
learn from others that she had voluntarily given up her combined Master's and Doctorate program to pursue

Lionel was deeply disappointed in his daughter. Mindy also found it hard to understand.

As for towels and slippers, she had already prepared them in advance.
When dinner was ready, Miranda went to wake her parents. Mindy raised an eyebrow at the sight of the spread
on the table. “Not bad. You've truly inherited my skills.”
Lionel muttered under his breath, “It’s clearly my skills she inherited... How did it becyours?”
Mindy pretended not to hear him. After all, he didn’t dare say it any louder.
Miranda handed them the cutleries and sat down. “Shall we start?”
Mindy couldn’t wait any longer. Lionel took a couple of bites as well and nodded repeatedly. “My daughter's
cooking talent is obviously from me...”
Mindy didn’t even bother to respond at that point.
