They bought three cups of hot milk.
Qin Yan was a fluffy little white tiger today. She held her milk tea in both hands and sat steadily on Fourth Uncle's shoulders.

She was pretty capable now, too.
Fu Wenli and Fu Nanshan drank their milk tea as they continued shopping for other things.

"Grandpa, Uncles, look at me."
"Aren't they pretty?"
Everyone, whether there in person or on the video calls, smiled at her lively antics.
