Daily Life

Huo Tian glared at Ding Chen, who seemed like he wanted to see the world in chaos, then defended herself indignantly, "That's deep sleep! Do you know about deep sleep? It only takes dozens of minutes to achieve the same effect as ordinary people sleeping for seven to eight hours…"2

Under Ding Rong's threatening gaze, Huo Tianshan awkwardly stopped explaining. From her hair to her toes, her entire body portrayed the word "guilty".

Even if Huo Tian promised that she wouldn't stay up late without any restraint and would leave ample time to rest every day, she was unable to go against Ding Rong's dictatorship.

Ding Rong pulled her by the collar and brought her home. After washing up, Huo Tian was pressed onto the bed by Ding Rong.

Ding Rong instructed with a cold expression, "I don't care if you feel like resting or not. You have to sleep now. I'll come to wake you up after you've slept for five hours!"

Although Huo Tan had been given a scolding, being an orphan in her previous life, to be preached to by her mother was a completely new experience.

She did not hate this feeling and obediently followed Ding Rong's instructions, lying on the bed with her eyes closed.

A moment ago, all sorts of thoughts were active in her mind, but once she returned to this familiar and comfortable environment, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Ding Rong's heart ached and she felt helpless when she saw her daughter, who had been full of energy a moment ago, completely asleep now.

She covered Huo Tian with a blanket and left her bedroom quietly.

Huo Tian slept very satisfactorily. After she opened her eyes, she rested for a long while before her mind became completely clear.

It was just in time for dinner, so Huo Tian went to help Ding Rong bring the dishes to the dining room. She suddenly thought of something and asked Ding Rong, "Mom, have you seen Bi Ying these past two days? The two of us will need to collaborate on the next process of making the exoskeleton, but I don't think I've seen him much in the past two days."

Ding Rong rolled her eyes unhappily. "You've been staying in the company's laboratory all day. How can you possibly see Bi Ying?"

Huo Tian immediately gave Ding Rong an ingratiating smile, hoping that Ding Rong would quickly turn this matter over and not bring up old scores.

Ding Rong was amused by Huo Tian's pitiful look. After laughing, she carefully recalled and frowned as she said, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have realized it. It's true that I haven't seen Bi Ying in the past two days. In the past, he would have taken the initiative to come to our house to eat, but he hadn't come over in the past two days. I called him and he only said that he was held up by something. I don't know what happened."

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out in the courtyard. "Auntie Ding, are you at home?"

Huo Tian lifted the curtain and saw that it was Liu Jun from next door.

He was now a popular Internet celebrity and had gotten himself a good makeover from top to toe. He had a refreshing hairstyle and looked like a sunny handsome youth now.

It was probably because he didn't meet Huo Tian often, Liu Jun smiled awkwardly when he saw Huo Tian. "Huo Tian, you're at home too? My fans have sent over some imported fruits. I brought some to give to Auntie Ding. You guys should try them too."

Huo Tian graciously accepted Liu Jun's kindness. She walked over and took the box from Liu Jun's arms, then smiled and said, "Thank you, but I remember you saying that you're just a small streamer without much popularity. Are there really fans who'd send you gifts? And it's such expensive imported fruits?"

Liu Jun looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

At this moment, Ding Rong also lifted the curtain and came out. She rolled her eyes at Huo Tian and smiled awkwardly at Liu Jun, saying, "Little Liu, don't hold it against Huo Tian. Other than tinkering with those messy things, she doesn't pay attention to anything else. She doesn't know that you're already a famous Internet celebrity with millions of fans."

Huo Tian's eyes widened in surprise. "What? Your fans have reached ten million?"

Liu Jun scratched the back of his head and a shy blush appeared on his face.
