After hearing this, Long Ruilin nodded and said, "Is that so? Then let's go eat hot pot. There is a hot pot restaurant in front. The taste is quite good."

Although he had already eaten hotpot yesterday, Long Ruilin felt that this did not prevent him from having another meal today. Delicious food will never make you tired of it even if you eat it repeatedly.

He is also willing to try different flavors and is now a loyal hotpot fan.

As soon as she stepped into the hot pot restaurant, a strong aroma of hot pot hit her nose, and Lu Xi, who originally had no appetite, was also stimulated to eat.

A smiling waitress came up to greet the visitor immediately after seeing him. She said warmly, "Hello, welcome! Are there only two guests?"

"Yes, please find a seat."

"Okay, then follow me." She led the two of them to a location near the floor-to-ceiling windows. Outside the window was a bustling street with people coming and going.

The location is pretty good, but Lu Xi felt that it was a bit hard to eat in front of so many people watching.

She simply pulled Long Ruilin's sleeve and pointed to the corner next to her, "Let's sit there."

Seeing this, the waiter immediately changed direction and said with a smile: "Of course."

After the two sat down, the waiter handed over the ordering tablet and poured two drinks for them.

Lu Xi took a quick look at the items on it. There were so many of them, much more complete than the dishes they prepared for hot pot at home.

However, since it was Long Ruilin's suggestion after all, Lu Xi thought it would be fine to let him come.

"Longlong, order whatever you want. If you can't finish it, we can take it home and eat it later."

Long Ruilin took the tablet, slid his little hand across the screen, and selected carefully.

He looked at this, then looked at that, and each one made him feel excited. Although his sister had just indicated that he could order more, they were outside now, and they had to order according to their appetite.

After Long Ruilin ordered the food, he was just about to ask Lu Xi for her opinion when her cell phone rang.

"It's beautiful day..."

Lu Xi picked up the phone beside her. The screen showed a video call request from "Third Aunt". She gently pressed the answer button.

A little girl of about eleven or twelve immediately appeared on the screen. She was the youngest daughter of Lu Xi's third aunt. She was greeting her happily in front of the screen.

"Hello, Sister Xixi, I'm Yaoyao."

Lu Xi also smiled and pointed the camera of her mobile phone at herself, and asked softly: "Yaoyao, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Sister Xixi, the food you sent is super delicious. Also, grandma was just asking when you will be back?"

As she spoke, Yaoyao turned the camera of her mobile phone to look at Grandma Lu Xi who was sitting next to her, and a kind smile appeared on the old lady's face.

The camera also swept across the mahjong table next to them. Lu Xi's eldest aunt, second aunt, and third aunt were all sitting at the table, with two neighbors sitting next to them. Everyone was gathered together, probably having fun there.

There was no other way, Lu Xi could only call them one by one, "Grandma, Great Grandma, Second Grandma, Great Aunt, Second Aunt, Third Aunt."

It was probably because the autumn harvest had just ended and there was no time to go out to work at this time, so all of Lu Xi's aunts were here.

Fortunately, she still remembers the two neighbors next door. I think she called them that when she was a child.

After hearing this, Long Ruilin, who was standing next to him, leaned over silently.

As soon as his childish face appeared on the screen, he was immediately captured. Those people who usually have poor eyesight when playing with mobile phones now seemed to have detectors.

Before anyone had time to say hello, someone on the other side started asking questions impatiently.

"Xixi, who is that kid next to you?"

Seeing that the camera had exposed Long Ruilin's presence, Lu Xi had to adjust the angle slightly so that Long Ruilin could also appear in the picture.

"This is my boss's child. Both parents are away on business, so I'm responsible for taking care of him these days."

Lu Xi was not lying. Long Jingyi and Mo Chengjin were indeed on a business trip, and it was a long trip.

Long Ruilin looked at the elders on the screen. They seemed a little unfamiliar, but judging from their facial features, he could find similarities with his sister.

But what should he be called?

[Sister, what should I call you? ]

After hearing the voice transmission, Lu Xi immediately replied, "You can call me the same as me, but when we talk about age later, just say six years old, or a little older is fine."

If she said she was four or five years old, Lu Xi felt that she would be in danger. She was afraid that the neighbors would think too much and spread rumors, and in the end she didn't know what kind of person they would say she was.

Although Long Ruilin didn't understand why Lu Xi said that, he still responded obediently, "No problem."

Then, he turned to the screen and greeted sweetly, "Hello, grandmas and aunts. I'm Longlong, I'm six years old. Daddy's not here these days, so I'm here with sister Xixi."

The clear child's voice was extremely pleasant to the ear and immediately won the love of Lu Xi's elders and neighbors.

Lu Xi's aunt looked at the child on the screen. He looked so well-behaved and cute, and was likable just by looking at him.

"The kids in this city are different. They are fair-skinned and polite."

"Yeah, he's much better than that brat in my family."

A neighbor nearby also echoed: "Yes, Lu Xi was popular with children when she was a child."

Just when everyone was talking excitedly, Lu Xi's grandmother coughed and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Okay, okay, since Xixi is busy, let's not disturb her. Xixi, you have to take good care of yourself over there and don't get too tired."

Lu Xi moved the camera back to her side and nodded, "Okay, grandma, I understand."

Before she finished speaking, the phone returned to Li Xiyao's hand: "Sister Xixi, when will you come back? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you a lot."

Lu Xi looked at the somewhat unfamiliar little face on the screen and felt a little emotional. It seemed that she had hardly been home since college, and she didn't even remember the full names of her younger children.

But when she thought about taking Long Ruilin on a trip, she hesitated: "This..."

At this time, Long Ruilin saw Lu Xi's entanglement, and he said directly: "Sister, why don't we go back tomorrow? I also want to go to your house to play, just stay for one day."

Lu Xi moved the phone slightly and glanced at Long Ruilin with raised eyebrows.

Are you sure? There's nothing to do there, and the food isn't as good as here.

Long Ruilin nodded. Even if there was nothing fun, he could still find something fun.
