Gu Xiaoai steeled herself, picked up her chopsticks, and a plate of hot poached eggs was suddenly brought to her. The hand on the edge of the plate was slender and beautiful, with well-defined finger bones.
Without looking up, Gu Xiaoai knew that Li Juefeng was standing beside her.
"This poached egg was fried by Mr. Li himself. I just heated it up again. Miss Gu and the young master should try it quickly." Tong Ma stood aside and said, relaxing the atmosphere.
Gu Xiaoai lowered her head and looked at the poached eggs on the plate. She saw that her cooking skills were unfamiliar and she was a little burnt.
"Would you like some dipping sauce?" Li Juefeng sat down next to her, reached for a bottle of sweet sauce, his voice was low, and his behavior was full of flattery.
"I do not want to eat."
Gu Xiaoai put the chopsticks back on the table.
Len sat aside and stared at her blankly. Li Juefeng's hand was still holding the sweet sauce bottle. Hearing this, his fingers froze and his face turned extremely ugly.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Len couldn't help but asked.
"I'm fine. Eat quickly. After you finish, mom will take you out to buy something." Gu Xiaoai said to him, her voice as calm as if nothing had happened.
"Ask the servant to buy it, it's raining outside." Li Juefeng said in a low voice, his short hair still messy and without any combing.
"I want to go by myself." Gu Xiaoai said quietly.
…
Very good, she would still talk to him instead of just ignoring him.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Li Juefeng's voice was a little hoarse. He wanted to unscrew the bottle cap with one hand, but his fingertips slid a few times and failed to unscrew it.
Gu Xiaoai turned her eyes and stared at his hand, her tone still indifferent, "We want to go by ourselves without your company."
"No!" Li Juefeng's hand tightened on the bottle cap.
His tone was firm.
No matter how he changes, no matter how he lowers his posture and becomes groveling, he is still the domineering Li Juefeng, and the things deep in his bones... will never change.
"I won't eat!" Gu Xiaoai simply stood up and walked out. He glanced at the child's mother and signaled her to let Len finish his breakfast.
The child's mother nodded knowingly.
"..."
Li Juefeng sat there, with Gu Xiaoai's figure in his peripheral vision getting further and further away, his dark eyes staring at the untouched poached eggs on the plate, and he fastened the bottle cap tightly with his fingers, unable to turn it open no matter how hard he turned it.
"boom--"
Li Juefeng slammed the sweet sauce bottle to the ground, his face turned livid.
Len suddenly shrank his shoulders in fear and looked at Li Juefeng in panic, not daring to say a word.
*************************
Gu Xiaoai sat in the living room and turned on the TV. The news was reporting that various places were entering the rainy season.
There is a glass bottle on the spotlessly clean coffee table, with a few blue witches stuck on it, which is very beautiful.
"Drink a glass of milk."
A slender hand holding a milk glass came into her sight.
It was the first time that Li Juefeng was so patient in trying to please her, doing each thing in a humble manner and saying in a hoarse voice, "Be good, drink some milk."
If she wanted to quarrel with him or fight with him, she had to save some energy.
Gu Xiaoai sat still without moving.
In the morning, Li Juefeng was fucked by her more than once or twice.
Taking a breath, Li Juefeng suppressed his emotions, put the milk cup on the coffee table, stared down at her face, and whispered, "What do you want to eat? I'll let the kitchen do it. I'll cook a meal for you.
You eat, okay?"
"Don't you need to accompany Luo Ya'er?" Gu Xiaoai suddenly asked while looking at the glass of milk, her tone full of hostility. She didn't want to do this, but once she spoke... she couldn't control it.
