Theo huggedtight and said with a smile, "I was worried you couldn't wait to have your hotpot.”
| smiled slightly. “How thoughtful of you."
"Can you carry this for me, Theowy?"
A lady’s sweet voice sounded outside the door.
| looked over and saw that it was Cindy.
She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, a pair of shorts, and a pair of white shoes. It was an ordinary attire,
but it made her seem extraordinarily energetic
| suspect that she was deliberately dressing younger than her age.
Theo glanced back before saying to me," Wait for me. We'll have hotpot right away.”

Seeing Theo unload two suitcases from the trunk, | could not help but frown
Was she moving here?
Theo asked someone to handle Cindy's luggage before asking her to go for a walk around the place When he

| pursed my lips and asked him, "Why did you bring her here?”
