    "Fine, we''ll eat at home," Henry Armstrong nodded, fully understanding how Georgie''s parents felt.


    Parents around the world would do anything for their children.


    At this moment, he had a deeper sense of respect for Georgie''s parents.


    That evening, everyone had a sumptuous meal of hot pot at home amidst a joyful banter.


    Henry knew how to make his future inws happy, repeatedly joking while never stopping putting food onto their tes throughout the meal.
