My buildings have attributes

We were just talking about something, how come so many things have been canceled in such a short time?

"Ah. What? Did I say something? I don't know anything about it." Seeing this, Mrs. Chen immediately pretended to know nothing and looked at Mr. Chen. Then she said with a smile.

"Tch, stop pretending. Give me a break. Just tell me what happened. What were you complaining about over there?" Mr. Chen continued to ask.

"Oh, just now, I was just complaining about someone. I don't know what happened, they've become so slow at doing things," Mrs. Chen replied casually.

At this moment, Chen's mother was secretly delighted. She had to maintain a calm facade, but it was truly uncomfortable for her.

"Hehe, is that so? Alright then. I won't say anything more." Mr. Chen knew this was definitely directed at him, so he wisely kept quiet.

However, Mr. Chen quickly realized what Mrs. Chen meant, so he asked, "Hmm? That's not right. Who are you saying has become slow and dawdling? You're not talking about me, are you?"

"I was talking about you! You didn't just find out, did you? Oh my god, I can't stand it, I really can't stand it." Mrs. Chen said helplessly, holding her head.

When Mrs. Chen first heard what Mr. Chen said, she thought he understood what she meant. Now it seems that Mrs. Chen was just overthinking it.

"Yes, I just found out. What's wrong? What are you trying to say?" Mr. Chen asked, puzzled.

"Well, it doesn't really mean anything. It just feels... kind of weird," Mrs. Chen said casually.

"What?" Mr. Chen asked impatiently upon seeing this.

Mr. Chen had already felt impatient with what Mrs. Chen had just said, so at this moment, he exploded even more.

"Um. It's nothing, it's just that I feel you're doing things a bit slowly these days, your pace is a little slow, you know what I mean?" Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

Mr. Chen, who was standing nearby, found what Mrs. Chen said somewhat ridiculous. But what else could he do? He didn't know either.

"Oh, is that so? Well then, since you think it's too slow, then it can be slower," Mr. Chen replied casually.

Chen's mother and father, I don't know where it started, started arguing like this. The atmosphere was incredibly awkward all day.

This is something that Li Lili has been wronged about.

Caught between the two, Li Lili really didn't know what to do. Luckily, Qingqing was there to distract her.

"Mom, I'll play with Qingqing for a while. You two continue chatting." Li Lili thought it best to slip away first.

After hearing what Li Lili said, Chen's mother did not answer Li Lili, but looked directly at Chen's father, still thinking of arguing with him.

……

The atmosphere at home only eased when Chen Ling appeared.

"Oh my god, how come I can smell gunpowder even from so far away? What's wrong?" Chen Ling said with a smile as soon as he saw his mother and the others.

Li Lili had already started telling Chen Ling about the situation here before he even appeared. That's why Chen Ling said it on purpose.

"That's for sure. Someone must have set the powder keg on fire. It just exploded, of course the smell was strong." At that moment, Mr. Chen spoke up calmly.

"Oh, is that so? In that case, it really is quite scary," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Then Chen Ling saw Li Lili and Qingqing sitting far away to one side...

"Hey." Chen Ling couldn't help but burst out laughing as he watched the two of them distance themselves from the conflict.

"Go and check on Xiaoxue's wound," Chen's mother said again at this moment.

"Okay, sure." Chen Ling immediately agreed upon seeing this.

Then they saw Chen Ling, who smiled at Chen's mother and slowly walked over to Li Lili.

"How are you doing? Is it tough?" Chen Ling looked at Li Lili and quickly smiled.

"Oh, please stop nagging me. I'm so worried." Just then, Li Lili said with a smile.

"Haha, what are you worried about? Thinking about how to resolve the conflict between the two of them? Let me tell you, don't even think about it, because it's absolutely impossible." Chen Ling looked at Li Lili and said very seriously.

"Huh? Why?" Li Lili, who was standing nearby, asked curiously after hearing this.

"What else could it be? Can't you see? Dad did all this for Mom." Chen Ling rolled his eyes at Li Lili and then spoke casually.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately laughed, then asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"It means exactly what it says. Otherwise, do you think Dad is so free that he keeps arguing with Mom? He's mainly worried that Mom is too bored, you know? So he's just trying to cheer her up." Chen Ling whispered to Li Lili at this moment.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili quickly turned to look at Chen's father. Then she softly replied to Chen Ling, "Ah? Oh, I see. I've been misunderstanding all this time."

“Yes, that’s right, you’ve been misunderstanding all along,” Chen Ling said with a smile.

Then Li Lili innocently pursed her lips, and then smiled and said, "Hmm, now that I think about it carefully, it seems that's how it is, right? How could something so good make Mom angry? Hmm, Dad really loves Mom so much."

"Of course, all the men in the Chen family are fiercely protective of their wives," Chen Ling said smugly after hearing Li Lili's praise.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili immediately rolled her eyes at Chen Ling.

Just then, Li Lili looked at Chen Ling and was utterly speechless. She thought to herself, "This guy is way too narcissistic and self-important."

"I was praising Dad, what does that have to do with you? I don't understand at all. Why are you dragging yourself into this? Seriously, aren't you kidding me?" Li Lili said to Chen Ling with a look of disgust.

Then Chen Ling replied calmly, "Well, how should I put it? You know women tend to say one thing and mean another, so I won't argue with you about this. I know you still think highly of me, right?"

“Yes, what you said is absolutely right, there’s no problem with it at all. I still have high hopes for you, that’s for sure.” At this moment, Chen Ling continued to speak.

"Oh, right, I have something serious to tell you." At this moment, Li Lili suddenly changed her tone and spoke to Chen Ling in a very serious manner.

However, Chen Ling found it quite unsurprising after hearing it.

"How did you learn this from your mother? All you do is tell me one thing all the time. Ugh, just say what you want to say." Chen Ling said helplessly after hearing this.

"Oh, okay, then I'll tell you. My mom's coming over tomorrow," Li Lili said.

"Yeah, that's great. Your mom can come over and have some fun. Isn't that nice?" Chen Ling said with a smile after hearing that.

"Yes, it's good, but my leg is injured. I'm afraid he'll say something when he comes tomorrow," Li Lili said calmly from the side.

However, at that moment, Chen Ling first laughed, and then said in a tone that seemed to have seen through everything, "Oh, so that's what you're worried about?"

"Yes, that's for sure. I'm worried that when he comes tomorrow and sees me like this, he'll scold me," Li Lili said, pouting.

"What's wrong with that? It doesn't matter," Chen Ling said with a smile.

"How can it be okay?" Li Lili felt a little sad seeing Chen Ling's indifferent attitude, so she asked.

"Well, you were just in a normal class, right? What can you do if you accidentally bump into the desk? Besides, everyone has accidents sometimes, so what can the state say about it?" Chen Ling explained.

After listening to Chen Ling's words, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, suddenly felt that it made sense.

"Yes, that's right. Now that you mention it, it seems like there's nothing to worry about." At this moment, Li Lili's face suddenly lit up with sunshine, and she began to talk to Chen Ling with a cheerful smile.

“Yeah, so I think you’re just worrying unnecessarily and overthinking things,” Chen Ling said from the side.

However, at that moment, Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Hehe, then I won't think about it. Let's wait for Mom to come over and play tomorrow."

"By the way, why did Mom suddenly decide to come over? Did you call her?" Chen Ling asked curiously.

"Now that you mention it, I haven't told you yet. I did miss my mom a bit today, but I wasn't thinking of having her come over tomorrow. I was just thinking of going back to see her when I had some time. I don't know how it happened, but your mom told me that she also missed my mom a bit, so she asked me to call and see if she had time to come over tomorrow," Li Lili said with a smile.

"Haha, that's great! They've built a deep friendship and become best friends." Chen Ling, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh and say.

"Yes, that's right. That's exactly it." Then Li Lili, who was standing to the side, said with a smile.

……

The next day arrived quickly. This morning, just as the sun was rising, we heard Chen's mother's excited voice.

"I'm going to have a good chat with someone today," said Mrs. Chen with a smile as she helped Qingqing change her clothes.

"Do you usually have no one to talk to or what? Look how happy you are, you're just like a little kid," Mr. Chen said with a smile.

"What's wrong? Isn't it good that I act like a child? It just shows that I still have a childlike heart," said Mrs. Chen with a smile.

Seeing this, Mr. Chen shook his head helplessly and said nothing more.

"Hey, don't look at me like that. I find it really strange," Mrs. Chen said with a laugh.

However, at that moment, Mr. Chen immediately lowered his head and replied, "Alright, then you can continue having fun. I'm going out for a run."

"Okay, go ahead." Seeing this, Mrs. Chen immediately nodded in response.

And so, Mrs. Chen waited for Mrs. Shen to deliver her message.

After breakfast, Chen's mother immediately sent a message to Shen's mother, asking when Shen's mother would arrive.

"Mom, I'm leaving now." Chen Ling said immediately after finishing his meal.

"Okay, sure. If Xiaoxue's mother is going home late today, or not going home at all, I'll let you know so you can come back early and we can have a meal together," Chen's mother said to Chen Ling.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling nodded quickly and then said with a smile, "Okay, I understand. Just call me if you need anything."

"Okay, bye-bye, be careful on the road," said Mrs. Chen, waving her hand.

"Be careful," Li Lili said to Chen Ling at this moment.

Chen Ling left very quickly...

Chen's mother and Li Lili are doing nothing but waiting for Shen's mother to arrive.

Chen's mother smiled and said, "Your mother said they're already on their way. They should be here soon."

"Mom, don't be in such a hurry. She just got on the bus, it'll probably be a while before she arrives," Li Lili said with a smile after hearing this.

"Yes, that seems to be true," Mrs. Chen replied with a smile.

Looking at Chen's mother's eager expression, Li Lili felt incredibly warm inside.

Li Lili knew that Chen's mother really liked Shen's mother. That's why she was so eager to meet Shen's mother so she could tell her what was on her mind as soon as possible.

Then, Chen's mother quickly said, "I'll go cut some fruit now, so we can prepare first and have some fruit when we arrive."

"Mom, don't bother, it's nothing serious, don't worry. Look at this, what's the big deal? Right? We can get ready later when Mom arrives, why are you in such a rush?" Li Lili said to Chen's mother with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen's mother looked up and met Li Lili's gaze. Then she couldn't help but laugh...

Just then, Chen's mother smiled and said, "I don't know why, but I just feel really anxious. I want to get all these things ready as soon as possible. Otherwise, when your mother comes over, we won't know what else to prepare."

However, after hearing what Chen's mother said, Aunt Yang immediately came over and said to Chen's mother, "Oh dear, don't bother. When she comes over, you can just chat with her. Let me prepare the things."

"Haha, look how nervous I am!" Mrs. Chen said with a laugh.
