Chapter 126 Lee Yi-hwa V Sung Dong-il
In the morning, at Zhengfeng's house.
Ms. Leopard, always dressed in her signature leopard-print outfit, stood in the kitchen, ladling out bowls of soup.
"Dinner's ready! Time to eat!" Ms. Leopard shouted as she placed all the dishes on the table.
"Really! She's never come out after just one explanation!" Ms. Leopard walked towards the room.
"What are you doing? Eating?" Ms. Leopard asked, looking at her husband sitting on the ground.
"You don't have much luggage this year?" Kim Sung-jun looked at the things on the ground and sighed. "When I was hospitalized last year, my luggage filled the car."
"Stop saying such useless things, come out and eat!" Ms. Leopard urged, closing the door and leaving.
Only Kim Sung-kyun remained in the room, looking at the things on the floor and sighing.
"Zhengfeng, breakfast is ready." Ms. Leopard pushed open Zhengfeng's door and called softly.
"I'm not eating anymore," Zhengfeng said, pulling the covers over his head.
"Really!" Ms. Leopard stepped forward and lifted the blanket.
"Hurry up! Get up!" He slapped Zhengfeng a few times, forcibly waking him up.
"Don't eat alone again later! Hurry up! Let's eat together!" Ms. Leopard snapped at Zhengfeng.
"I can't eat..."
"What do you mean you can't eat?! Come here right now!"
Zhengfeng was startled by Ms. Leopard's stern voice as soon as he finished speaking, and had no choice but to obediently get out of bed...

Deok-sun's House
A pot of tofu, greens, seaweed, pickled cabbage, and salted vegetables is placed on the table.
Bora, Deok-sun, and Yu-hui sat at the table waiting for their mother to finish setting the table.
Yu Hui glanced at the dishes on the table before looking up at his mother.
"Mom, don't you have fried pork cutlets? We eat the same thing every day..."
"Just eat! Even you're starting to complain!" After Deok-sun finished speaking, Yu-hui slowly turned his head to look at Bora, who was happily eating, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Paula has complained a lot about how picky she is about food, saying she doesn't like the vegetables.
Her criticism of Yu Hui's double entendre just now didn't elicit a scolding from Paula.
Something's not right~ Something's really not right~
"Second sister, you often go to Brother Shuyu's house to freeload, of course you don't care~" Yu Hui muttered under her breath.
Deok-sun overheard Yu-hui muttering and raised her hand as if to hit him, but was interrupted by her mother's shout...
"Honey~~ Dinner's ready~ The soup's getting cold~~" Lee Il-hwa's gentle, drawn-out voice left Deok-sun speechless.
Even Paula, who was focused on eating, stared wide-eyed at her mother.
"They agreed to use honorifics, isn't that funny!" Deok-sun explained to Bora with a smile.
Paula shrugged, nonchalantly continuing to eat, acting as if she were a completely different person.
"Husband~~"
It's finally here after much anticipation!
Cheng Dongri applied an egg to the bruises around his eyes, slowly sat down, and a natural smile appeared on his face as he looked at Li Yihua.
"Are you waiting for me?"
"You guys can eat first~"
Sung Dong-il politely bowed and nodded to Lee Il-hwa.
"We can only eat after the parents have started eating!" Li Yihua complimented.
"Mom, how long are you going to keep this up... It's so embarrassing~" Deok-sun said, unable to bear it any longer while eating, and accidentally dropped some food on her clothes.
"Don't spill any rice, eat properly, silly girl!"
"Whose temperament did you take after? So careless!"
While scolding Deok-sun, Lee Il-hwa resumed speaking normally, subtly making sarcastic remarks about someone.
"Oh? Hehe~ Are you saying this for me?" Cheng Dongri, being her husband, politely pointed it out directly...
"Oh dear~ No, absolutely not you~ How could that be~~" Li Yihua apologized with a big smile, though it was unclear whether she was smiling at Cheng Dongri or herself...
Round 1: Li Yihua wins!!!
"Dingling bell~~"
The phone next to Yu Hui rang once, and he reached behind him to take it.
"Hello?" Yu Hui answered the phone.
"Big sister, it's for you," Yu Hui relayed.
“Tell me I’m not here!” Paula looked at the phone with displeasure.
“She said she’s not here, okay~” Yu Hui relayed the message truthfully, then swallowed hard as he looked at the people at the table staring at him, before turning to Paula.
To his surprise, Paula looked at him with a speechless expression and even gritted teeth.
"He...he said he'd call later..." Sensing something was wrong, Yu Hui quickly buried his head in his food after saying this...
Cheng Dongri glanced at the afterglow a few times.
"We feel like something's missing in Yu Hui's mind. Who does he take after?"
After speaking, Sung Dong-il smiled and looked at Lee Il-hwa.
"You mean it's because you took after me? So something's missing? Is that right?" Li Yihua smiled stiffly at him.
"Hahaha~ I definitely wasn't talking about you~~ How could that be~~" Sung Dong-il chuckled and threw her words back at her...
"Madam, let's have dinner." Cheng Dongri said.
"Okay~ Hehe~~" Li Yihua.
Round Two: Sung Dong-il wins!!!
Deok-sun couldn't help but purse her lips as she watched the two androgynous people clashing in the shadows.
Bora, however, had been fiddling with her rice with chopsticks ever since that phone call, and hadn't eaten a single bite in a long time, all of which Deok-sun noticed.
"I'm not eating anymore." Paula put down her chopsticks and stood up.
"Have you finished eating? Want some more?" Li Yihua looked at Paula, her tone returning to normal.
"No need, I'm going to sleep, don't wake me." Paula got up and walked into the house.
Deok-sun looked at Bora with curiosity. Having shared a room with her, Deok-sun thought for a moment and guessed some of the truth.

Zhengfeng Family
Zhengfeng sat opposite his mother, his feelings complicated. He picked up a small sausage, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
"Jung-bong, you've already done such difficult surgeries twice, what are you worried about?"
"Don't worry at all! We've hired the best doctors this time; a minor surgery will be a piece of cake!"
Seeing his son eating silently without saying a word, Jin Chengjun quickly comforted him, forgetting about his own meal.
"Hmm..." Zhengfeng responded in a short voice.
"Jung-hwan, come and eat!" Ms. Leopard called out to Jung-hwan as he opened the door.
"Oh~ okay!" Jung-hwan sat down with a tissue between his nose and his fingers.
"Your nose is bleeding again?" Kim Sung-kyun asked with concern.
"Yeah, it's been going on for more than just a day or two."
"Sometimes this happens when I take a hot shower~"
Jung-hwan said nonchalantly, turning to look at Jung-bong, "Brother, were you admitted to the hospital this afternoon?"
"Hmm, you don't need to come." Zhengfeng glanced at his younger brother's nose.
"You have nowhere to sleep here, so just stay at home."
"It's not a major surgery, there's no need for the whole family to go."
Ms. Leopard continued Zhengfeng's words.
“It’s alright, come tomorrow. The surgery is the day after tomorrow, so you can come tomorrow.” Kim Sung-jun knew that Jung-hwan was also worried, so he compromised.
"Hmm~" Jung-hwan nodded, glanced at his older brother beside him, and patted Jung-bong on the shoulder.
