The two little ones nodded, "Sleep, Auntie, will you sleep with us?"
"Yes, Auntie will sleep with you."
Saying that, Su Xingwan turned off the bedside lamp, leaving only a small night light for the two little ones to use during the night.
Su Xingwan had just gotten into the bed when she instantly felt warmth; the two little ones had already warmed the bed for her.
The next day, Su Xingwan woke up to see the two little ones snuggling in her arms, sleeping soundly.
Su Xingwan got up first to prepare breakfast for them.
If this were before, she might have slept until noon and ordered takeout to casually solve the meal problem.
But now, with children, it's different.
She, as an adult, can eat takeout casually, but such little children can't.
The two half-asleep little ones smelled a fragrance and then woke up.
"Auntie, you're up so early?" Little Su Hua said.
Su Xingwan looked at them, who had already dressed themselves and climbed out of bed, and smiled.
"If Auntie doesn't get up early, what will you eat? Now, hurry up and wash your face and brush your teeth." After Su Xingwan finished speaking, she thought for a moment, "Can you brush your teeth by yourselves?"
"I can!"
"Me too!"
The two little ones said in unison.
Su Xingwan laughed, "Good, you two are great!"
Upon hearing Auntie's praise, the two little ones were happy enough to take off.
They hurriedly washed their faces and brushed their teeth, then ran to Auntie for inspection.
After Su Xingwan carefully inspected them, she gave them a thumbs-up.
"You did a great job cleaning, very good!"
The two little ones smiled with joy.
"Now, the two of you obediently sit at the table; breakfast is ready."
Upon hearing this, the two little ones obediently sat at the dining table, waiting for Auntie to feed them.
Just now they smelled the fragrance; Auntie must have made something delicious.
When their baby bowls were filled with noodles, the two little ones were startled.
"Auntie, we're eating noodles again?"
There was a hint of reluctance in their tones.
Su Xingwan saw the displeasure on the two little faces.
She smiled, "Tired of noodles?"
The two little ones were too embarrassed to speak, keeping their heads down.
Su Xingwan: "Have you forgotten what Auntie told you yesterday? You must say what you don't like to eat."
Little Su Hua raised her head and blinked, "Auntie, we've been eating noodles for several days, and we don't really want them anymore."
Slowly, Little Su Luo said, "Me too."
Su Xingwan sighed, "I knew you would say you're tired of noodles, Auntie has cooked two eggs for you, if you don't want the noodles, just eat the eggs."
"Okay!" The two little ones said happily.
It turns out saying what they don't like to eat isn't a problem at all.
In the kitchen, the water boiled and the eggs were cooked.
Su Xingwan took the boiled eggs out of the pot, peeled them, and put them in their noodle bowls.
Little Su Hua ate the egg and said, "Auntie, with the egg, the noodles taste better."
Little Su Luo nodded "Mm-mm-mm."
Su Xingwan smiled silently, not revealing their thoughts.
They just didn't want to eat only noodles, right?
"You need to eat quickly, Auntie needs to go out later."
"Go out?" The two little ones raised their heads, the noodles not fully swallowed, "Auntie, are you going shopping again?"
Su Xingwan shook her head, "No shopping, Auntie is going to a school reunion."
"Oh." The two little ones felt a bit disappointed.
Though they didn't understand what a school reunion was, would Auntie leave them at home again?
They got used to having Auntie around all the time these past few days.
If Auntie went out like before, it might be a long time until she came back.
When Auntie comes back next time, will she turn into the bad Auntie who ignored them?
Su Xingwan didn't know the little ones had so many worries in their minds. After they finished eating, she collected the plates and planned to wash them when she returned.
She went into the bedroom to change into a clean cotton jacket and took the things she needed for going out with her.
The two little ones were standing by the bedroom door, their eyes following Auntie as she packed.
Su Xingwan came out, stood by the entrance changing shoes, and saw the two little ones lying beside the cabinet watching her.
She was stunned and said, "Aren't you moving yet? You're coming out with Auntie later."
The two little ones froze.
"Auntie, are you taking us out with you too?"
"Of course, Auntie can't leave you two little guys home alone!"
Upon hearing this, the two little ones were so happy that the tufts of hair on their heads seemed to dance with joy.
They dashed over to join Auntie as she changed her shoes.
Su Xingwan watched their joyful movements.
What joy they felt just by going out!
Soon enough, the two little ones were ready.
The university class reunion was at a private hotel, said to be organized by a senior who was quite successful, and he was hosting everything today.
The trip wasn't far, so Su Xingwan, taking the two little ones, decided to indulge a little today and call a taxi.
As long as she could get the photographer's WeChat, it was worth it.
Soon, a car came, and the two little ones quickly got in, and in no time, they arrived at the private hotel.
Inside was splendidly luxurious, and the moment the two little ones stepped in, the scene dazzled their eyes.
An ordinary person like Su Xingwan was also quite shocked.
This senior was indeed generous!
Many people had already arrived at the gathering, and she came quite late.
Initially, no one recognized them, as classmates conversed with each other.
Seeing so many adults, the two little ones stayed obediently by Auntie's side.
Little Su Hua was somewhat socially anxious and tightly clung to Auntie's hand, while Little Su Luo was a social butterfly, boldly looking all around after entering with Auntie.
"Auntie, is this what you call a school reunion?"
Su Xingwan smiled, "Yes, is it beautiful here?"
Little Su Luo nodded, "Beautiful."
"Su Xingwan! I didn't expect you to really come?"
Zhang Qiaoqiao, dressed in a cute outfit, suddenly appeared in front of her.
Su Xingwan greeted her, "Yes."
Zhang Qiaoqiao looked her up and down, brows furrowing; how could Su Xingwan come to the reunion dressed so poorly, genuinely giving up? And with two tagalongs.
Wu Qian, who knew Su Xingwan, also came over, wearing a look of disdain, "Su Xingwan, you actually dared to bring your kids here?"
[Really, don't you feel embarrassed?]
Little Su Hua heard this auntie's inner thoughts and showed confusion.
Is it embarrassing for Auntie to take her and her brother out?
Everyone was surprised when they learned that the beautiful woman who attracted such attention upon entering was the Su Xingwan they had been discussing these days.
At the table, some young men who had a good impression of Su Xingwan turned away their admiring gazes upon seeing her with two small children.
Women like her weren't interesting to them, not to mention she had two kids along.
