The television drama was still playing, and Xia Wanyuan watched it with a serious face. Although the plot was awkward, she wanted to learn how modern people acted.

By the time the episode was over, Xia Yu had finally finished his meal. He looked at the clean bowls and dishes.

Jun Yin blinked. "Uncle, you can really eat."

"Ahem," Xia Yu touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment. It was the first meal he had after fighting someone. How could he not be hungry?

After Xia Yu was done eating, Xia Wanyuan waved at Xiao Bao. "Let's go back, Xiao Bao."

"Rest well. Just send me a message on WeChat if you have any cravings."

"Okay." There was no free lunch in the world. Xia Yu was rarely obedient.

"Uncle, rest well. We'll visit you another day."

Xiao Bao felt very close to this young uncle who resembled Xia Wanyuan. His chubby little hands wanted to imitate Xia Wanyuan's gesture of patting his head to comfort Xia Yu.

However, he wasn't tall enough and couldn't reach Xia Yu's head no matter how hard he tried. Having never interacted with such a young child before, Xia Yu had no idea what he was up to.

Knowing what the little dumpling wanted to do, Xia Wanyuan walked up and picked up Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao then reached out and patted Xia Yu's pink hair.

"Good luck, Uncle."

Xia Yu had been brought back to the Xia family since he was young and his status had been in an awkward state. Madam Xia and Xia Wanyuan did not like him. It was already good enough that his father remembered that he had a son. No one had ever approached him like this.

Sensing Xia Wanyuan's smiling gaze, Xia Yu shrunk his head in embarrassment. His pink hair could not hide the redness that was gradually staining his ears.

Xia Yu watched Xia Wanyuan and Xiao Bao leave. Although he couldn't bear to part with them, he tried to put on a front. "Hmph, I wonder what this woman is up to again."

...

After Xia Wanyuan went home, she took a comfortable bath and blow-dried her hair. Just after she had finished her skincare routine and sat on the sofa, Xiao Bao held his phone and ran towards her with his short legs.

"Mommy, this is for you." Xiao Bao handed the phone to Xia Wanyuan, then obediently hugged her arm and sat beside her.

The next day was the weekend. It was time to bring Jun Yin back to the old residence to visit Old Master Jun. Worried that Jun Yin would not cooperate because of Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling had called Jun Yin after work.

Who would have thought that Jun Yin would want Xia Wanyuan to go with him?

Xia Wanyuan was afraid of Old Master Jun. It would be strange if she would agree to go. Jun Shiling found an excuse, but Xiao Bao insisted that Xia Wanyuan go with him.

Before Jun Shiling's expression darkened, the person on the phone screen switched.

Jun Shiling looked at the screen and let out an unconscious gasp.

Xia Wanyuan, who had just finished showering and taking care of her skin, had exquisite skin that was flawless and supple. Her entire body was a light shade of pink and without makeup, her rosy lips looked even more alluring.

The house was warm, so Xia Wanyuan wore a silk dress. Her long black hair made her collarbone seem like jade, so fair that it was blinding.

Xia Wanyuan saw that many modern women wore sleeveless dresses like this outside, so she slowly accepted it. Hence, at this moment, she did not feel anything unusual as an ancient person from a thousand years ago.
