Chapter 499 It was yummy
“Well, Manla. It’s enough...” Gu Yan pulled Manla and stopped her talking. Otherwise, there would be a quarrel again. Mo Xiangyan was resting inside, and it was not good for him to see it.
Then Manla didn’t go on her talking any more.
“Auntie, I’ll send the food to Xiangyan first. He must be hungry.”
“Wait. Give me the food. Let me taste it first and check it for my grandson.” Li Yunhong stopped Gu Yan and spoke.
Although Gu Yan was reluctant, Li Yunhong was an elder after all, and she had no way. She gave the lunch box to Li Yunhong and handed her a pair of chopsticks.
Like tasting something awful, Li Yunhong just nipped a little of the food, put it in her mouth and chewed slowly. She only chewed it twice and then spat it out.
“Is this for people to eat? Why does it taste so awful? I’m afraid my grandson will have a stomachache if he eats it. How dare you bring it here?” Li Yunhong showed a disgusted look.
Manla couldn’t bear it any more. She was about to speak for Gu Yan, but she was pulled back by Gu Yan. How could she bear to see that Gu Yan suffered from such a grievance? So, she could only glare at Li Yunhong.
Seeing the ferocious expression in Manla’s eyes, Li Yunhong began to talk again, “What are you staring at? The food is terrible. Don’t you allow me to say that?”
These words made Manla so angry that she wanted to hit her, but Gu Yan still dragged her firmly. For Gu Yan’s sake, she had to submit to humiliation.
At this time, Mo Yichen came.
“What are you quarreling about outside? I can hear your voice in the ward.” Looking at the three people outside the ward, Mo Yichen winked at Gu Yan.
Seeing the lunch box in Li Yunhong’s hand and the looks of Gu Yan and Manla, he knew what had happened.
“This is the meal you cooked for Xiangyan?” Mo Yichen said. Then he snatched the lunch box from Li Yunhong’s hand, and had a taste of the food.
“It’s yummy. The food bought outside is not as good as what you made. I’m sure that Xiangyan will like it too.”
In fact, Gu Yan was good at cooking. After all, she had lived alone for a period of time. Li Yunhong just wanted to make trouble for Gu Yan by saying that. Gu Yan also knew that Li Yunhong would do this. It wouldn’t be her if Li Yunhong didn’t do so.
Manla stared steadily at Li Yunhong. Li Yunhong looked terrible, like she just ate a fly.
After all, she lost her face in public, and she thought herself as noble, which caused a very awkward scene.
Mo Yichen came into Mo Xiangyan’s ward carrying the lunchbox. Seeing that there was a meal to eat, Mo Xiangyan sat up quickly, which scared Gu Yan. She hurriedly held Mo Xiangyan’s body and said, “Slow down. Be careful.”
Seeing that Gu Yan was so concerned about him, Mo Xiangyan was ecstatic. Mo Yichen picked up the lunch box and said to Mo Xiangyan, “Xiangyan, this is the food that Aunt Gu Yan cooked for you personally. Have a taste quickly.”
He fed a mouthful of meal to Mo Xiangyan, and everyone was staring at the little boy. Gu Yan, in particular, was very nervous. She didn’t know what Xiangyan would say about her cooking.
Because Mo Yichen fed him too much, Mo Xiangyan chewed a long time to swallow it. Sure enough, children liked to show their feelings on their faces. Mo Xiangyan said happily, “That’s really delicious. I like it. I want more.”
Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. It was worth working so long. At least she got the praise from Mo Xiangyan.
Then Mo Yichen said to Li Yunhong, “Mom, Come on. Have a taste, too. It’s really delicious. This is the most delicious meal I’ve ever had.”
He picked up a piece of it and fed it to Li Yunhong’s mouth. Li Yunhong was so angry that she had only say one sentence, “I won’t eat.” Then she left.
After Li Yunhong left, Mo Yichen winked at Gu Yan. In fact, Gu Yan knew that Mo Yichen was deliberately to get Li Yunhong annoyed just now.
Manla saw Mo Yichen helping Gu Yan just now and she was not so angry. However, she still said to Mo Yichen, “I have something to talk to you. Can I talk to you alone?”
Mo Yichen nodded and said to Mo Xiangyan, “Do you remember what I told you that day?” Mo Xiangyan nodded meekly, and then Mo Yichen went out of the door at ease.
It was Gu Yan’s turn to be confused. After Mo Yichen went out, Gu Yan asked Mo Xiangyan, “What is that? Can you tell me?”
“It’s a secret between Dad and me. I can’t tell anyone else.” Mo Xiangyan shook his head and said to Gu Yan.
Mo Yichen followed Manla out of the ward, leaving Gu Yan to feed Mo Xiangyan. In fact, this was rightly what Mo Xiangyan wanted. Now he had time to stay with Gu Yan again.
Manla and Mo Yichen went out and came to the corridor. Manla said, “I hope you can deal with the relationship between Gu Yan and your mother quickly. You have to know how much injustice Gu Yan has suffered for you and Xiangyan. Do you know how much dissatisfaction that your mother showed to Gu Yan just now?”
“I know you love her and she loves you too, but I hope you can protect the person who you love. You’ve always said that. As Gu Yan’s best friend, I don’t want to see her suffering every day, and she is not for the suffering to be with you.”
Seeing Manla’s look, Mo Yichen also felt that he was very sorry for Gu Yan lately. His mother always troubled Gu Yan, and sometimes he couldn’t protect her in time.
“I know. I know that Gu Yan has been very aggrieved for a long time, but now it is a quite special period of time. I will deal with it as soon as possible. After all, I don’t want Gu Yan to get hurt anymore.”
“Then why don’t you tell your mother that Gu Yan is Mo Xiangyan’s mother? Maybe she won’t treat Gu Yan like that if you tell her.” Manla continued to question him.
“Well...this... I don’t know how to say it, and I can’t find a good opportunity to make my mother completely change her impression of Gu Yan.” Mo Yichen faltered, which made Manla quite impatient.
“You are a man. But why can’t you speak clearly? Don’t falter and let me understand what you said. If you have any problems, you can tell me and so that we can solve them together.”
“I don’t know if you are a man. You are more dilatory than I am, and always hesitate to make a decision.”
He couldn’t bear Manla’s words. Although Mo Yichen was reluctant, he had to say.
“You don’t know my mother. She has a deep misunderstanding about Gu Yan. If I tell her that now, she will feel that Gu Yan is a casual woman, and the misunderstanding will be even deeper.”
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, how can’t it be made clear?”
“You also saw my mother’s attitude toward Gu Yan just now. Even though Gu Yan treats Xiangyan sincerely, she still thinks Gu Yan has an ulterior motive for me. It’s hard to change one person’s impression of another. What’s more, she always has a grudge against Gu Yan.”
In fact, Mo Yicheng was not unreasonable in saying so. That was just what Li Yunhong was. She didn’t have a good impression of Gu Yan. If Mo Yicheng said so, she must think that Mo Yichen protected Gu Yan deliberately. In the end, things would get more and more chaotic, and no one could solve this problem.
