Cheng Su saw Qi Taiguo acting intimate without the slightest concern for her mother's presence, and she couldn't help but scold him: "What are you doing? My mom is still here!"
Qi Taiguo chuckled sheepishly.
Mother Cheng said, "I didn't see a thing."
This is the difference between a mother-in-law and a mother. If Mother Qi were here, she might get jealous. But a mother-in-law? She would love for her son-in-law and daughter to be more affectionate.
Cheng Su looked at her son, unable to hide the affection in her eyes. This was the child she had risked her life to give birth to, her closest kin bonded by blood. Just looking at him, she felt as if she owned the whole world.
The child's eyelids fluttered as if he wanted to open his eyes. Cheng Su exclaimed, "He's awake!"
Qi Taiguo and the others quickly looked over, seeing him slowly open his eyes. Although his gaze was still unfocused, his eyes were large, like black grapes.
Mother Cheng said, "The eyes are beautiful, big eyes."
