Auntie Zhang looked most disapproving. “It’s better that I address you as Miss Li.” Li An’an now was no longer the Li An’an she used to be. The young master liked her very much, and Auntie Zhang wasn’t that bold.
Butler Chu’s expression was complex. Li An’an had produced three children for the young master and had hidden them for so long. For that matter, she had lied to him right from the onset. There was nothing adorable about her at all. However, the young master liked her very much. The three children were also very well behaved. He decided to forgive her. “Li An’an, Young Master will be back in half an hour! The ingredients are already in the fridge. You may start preparing the meal now.”
Li An’an wanted to be done cooking as soon as possible too, so that she could pick up the children afterwards. She opened the fridge and took out prawns, eggs, and two pork ribs. She began preparing. The sound of her busy chopping vegetables could be heard coming from the kitchen.
The entire kitchen seemed warm and cosy. Not long after, a fragrant smell filled the air.
Butler Chu stood in the living room, looking visibly moved. He actually missed the days when Li An’an was a servant here. Unexpected situations would come up every day! Each day was unique. Time passed easily. After she left, it was much quieter here, and Young Master did not stay home often.
Li An’an made garlic prawns, braised pork ribs, scrambled eggs, cabbage, and cold lettuce slices. These were all common home-cooked dishes, but through her culinary skills, they were made more fragrant and appetizing. Lastly, she picked up her chopsticks and nudged the food into perfect form. When everything was done, she got ready to serve the dishes to the dining table.
When Li An’an turned around and saw Chu Yichen standing behind her. He bent over slightly and leaned forward as if he was looking at her cooking. When she straightened up, she bumped into him.
Chu Yichen was wearing a black shirt and trousers of the same color. He held his coat with one hand and supported her with the other. “Had a fright? Or are you throwing yourself at me? I’d prefer the latter.”
Li An’an rolled her eyes at him. “I’m sorry to disappoint you. It’s obvious that it was the former. Food is ready. Aren’t you hungry? Hurry up and eat. I have something to attend to later!”
There was still an hour and a half before it was time for her to pick up the children. She could not stay here for too long.
Chu Yichen replied, “Okay, I’ll go wash my hands.” Although he said that he was going to wash his hands, he walked upstairs and did not come down for a long time.
Just as Li An’an got impatient and was about to look for him, Chu Yichen came downstairs. He had changed into a light gray shirt and black suit pants, his hair was wet. His face looked pale against his jet black hair, and his eyes were dark and sharp, making him seem completely unruly.
Li An’an tilted her head and stole a glance at him for a moment before retracting her gaze. She calmly filled his rice bowl. She placed the bowl of white rice in front of the man.
After doing all this, she was about to pull back when he grabbed her hand.
“If I can’t finish the food, let’s eat together!”
Li An’an refused. “That’s not necessary, I’m not hungry!”
“You haven’t eaten since after the event. You must be hungry. Don’t ask me how I know. Patients need good nutrition! Be good.”
Li An’an thought for a moment. There was still so much food left anyway, so she filled a bowl of rice for herself. She sat in front of him and ate with him.
Chu Yichen seemed really hungry. He ate quickly and did not speak until he finished two bowls of rice. Then he put down his bowl and chopsticks. He poured himself a glass of water before sitting down beside Li An’an, watching her eat.
Li An’an had something on her mind, so she ate slowly. She was chewing a piece of pork rib when Chu Yichen came to sit down next to her. Her gaze shifted from the bowl to him, and looked at him in confusion.
His gaze was fixed on the pork ribs in her mouth.
She took a bite and spoke.. “You like this piece of pork rib?”
