It was not only me who was surprised, but also Ruirui. She was stunned at the door, her mouth wide open.
There is a pink girly scene in front of you, there are many Barbie dolls on the bed, and there are many cartoon characters from comics posted on the wall. The whole room gives people a warm and healing feeling.
Do you need to think too much?
Ye Shanshan worked really hard to get Ruirui's recognition. It can be seen from all the decorations in this room that she wants to give all her love to her daughter.
Even a grown man like me was so moved that I was confused. If I were her daughter, I would call her mom now.
While Ruirui and I were shocked, Ye Shanshan smiled and asked Ruirui: "Ruirui, this will be your room from now on, do you like it?"
Ruirui looked at me, and I could feel her love from her eyes, but she refused to say anything.
So I opened my mouth and said to Ye Shanshan: "Miss Ye, how did you do this in such a short period of time?"
"I almost didn't sleep all night last night. While people were looking for a house, I was planning how to decorate Ruirui's room."
I gave her a thumbs up. This was the first time since I met her that I felt she was reliable.
Ruirui also really likes her very much. Although she doesn't say it, I can already feel it from her eyes.
After we took out Ruirui's luggage and hung it in the closet, Ruirui quietly told me: "Dad, I like it here very much, and I also like pink."
I smiled, squatted down and whispered to her: "You will be a little princess from now on. You must be obedient and remember to clean your own room."
"Yes, I will."
After we arranged all our luggage, Ye Shanshan said to me again: "Do you need anything else? I'll have someone buy it."
"I don't need anything else, but I need you to cook us a dinner yourself."
"I won't."
"I'll teach you, but you have to cook it yourself, and let Ruirui try her mother's cooking."
Ye Shanshan probably had never cooked before, so she said with an embarrassed look: "Okay, I'll give it a try."
So after we packed up the room, we went to the supermarket outside to buy groceries and some kitchen supplies. If we want her to be a good mother, these are the basics.
Ye Shanshan really didn't know many dishes, including how to use some condiments.
I explained to her one by one, how to prepare tomatoes, how to eat cucumbers, and introduced the names of all the dishes to her.
Ye Shanshan was really serious. She also asked me to speak slower, and every time I talked about a dish, she would take a photo of it with her phone and make notes.
In addition to buying vegetables and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, we also bought some fresh fruits and snacks that Ruirui likes to eat.
After shopping in the supermarket for two hours, I returned to my residence carrying several large bags of stuff.
Ye Shanshan didn't waste any time. When she got home, she took the initiative to carry the ingredients into the kitchen and started thinking about it.
I didn't panic because it was quite early, so I played with Ruirui on the sofa.
After a while, Ye Shanshan came over and called me: "Didn't you teach me how to cook? Come on."
"Why are you panicking? It's only four o'clock now. It will be done in an hour."
"I can't do the key thing, and it will take longer."
"Okay, okay, I'll come as soon as I finish eating this apple."
Ruirui asked me secretly at this time: "Godfather, do you think she can do it?"
"Probably not. Am I going to teach her?"
"Then godfather, you have to let her pay your tuition. You can't teach her in vain."
I really didn't expect Ruirui to say such cute things. Of course she was joking, so I called Ye Shanshan naturally.
She responded in the kitchen: "What's the matter?"
"Ruirui asked you to give me some tuition, so I can't teach you in vain."
As soon as I said this, Ruirui pulled me and frowned: "Godfather, why are you like this! Why did you tell her that I said it?"
"Hey, it's okay."
Ye Shanshan was stunned at the door of the kitchen, with a confused look on her face.
It was originally a joke, but Ye Shanshan seemed to take it seriously and asked me: "How much do you want?"
Before I could reply, Ruirui said first: "Yibei."
The child's milky voice made both Ye Shanshan and I laugh. Then I stood up and walked to the kitchen, saying to Ye Shanshan: "The child is joking, don't take it seriously, let's start now."
Ye Shanshan seemed very happy, with a faint smile on her face, and said, "I didn't expect Ruirui to start joking with me. I'm really happy."
"If you continue like this, I believe it won't be long before she is willing to follow you."
Ye Shanshan said with emotion: "To be honest, I used to hate children. I even thought about never having children in my life, but he liked children, so I gave birth to him. Even after I was released from prison, I never thought about having children."
The children live together, but these days I have been trying to please Ruirui. I found that this is really a special stress relief thing, and I like it more and more."
I smiled lightly and replied: "It proves that you are qualified to be a mother now, but you are not qualified yet."
"I will work hard, for Ruirui, and for that man."
"Is the man you are talking about Ruirui's father?"
"Yeah." Ye Shanshan's expression suddenly darkened again.
I was silent for a while, and then asked curiously: "Can I ask how he died?"
Ye Shanshan was silent for a while and then said: "He is not dead."
"Ah?! Then why did An Lan say he was dead?"
"I said that on purpose. I don't want Ruirui to know about him. You shouldn't tell Ruirui about this either."
"So, Ruirui's father still doesn't know about Ruirui's existence?"
Ye Shanshan shook her head and said: "He doesn't know, and I don't want to see him again. I won't talk about it anymore."
I sighed heavily. It seems that everyone has some secrets that cannot be told and regrets that cannot be undone.
A strong woman like Ye Shanshan also has some worries of her own. I really want to know how powerful that man is. He can find a woman like Ye Shanshan and let her give birth to a child even though she doesn't want a child.
This man is definitely not ordinary, but she doesn't want to say anything, and I don't want to ask any more questions.
The next time we started cooking, I told her all the steps and at most she would do some chores on the side.
Ye Shanshan is quite clumsy, but she is very serious and does everything I say.
The originally spacious and tidy kitchen soon became a mess, with messes everywhere. This is also the effect of a novice cook.
She even cut her finger while cutting potatoes. Although it wasn't a big deal, Ye Shanshan didn't show any pretense. She sucked up the blood with her mouth and spit it out before continuing to cut.
Her focus and serious attitude towards one thing really infected me.
There is a reason why people are rich. Although Ye Shanshan has a somewhat aloof personality, she is really powerful.
Even though he didn't know how to cook, he was proceeding in an orderly manner under my guidance.
Although the movements were clumsy, they were not messed up.
I even had the illusion that we were like a family.
The child was watching the animation in the living room, and the mother and I were busy in the kitchen, skillfully and in perfect harmony.
