"Of course, we are going to warm up the house today, and you are welcome to come too." Shi Qiuqiu said with a smile. She had just discussed it with Qiao Xiaoqing to celebrate in her new home.
"That's a good relationship. Last time I went to France I bought a bottle of red wine and put it in the car. I just had the chance to give you a taste." Yin Chenxuan happily agreed.
When we arrived at the new home, all the furniture was delivered.
So, Yin Chenxuan and Sheng Lijue followed suit and arranged the furniture.
Yin Chenxuan sat on the sofa as tired as a dog and said bitterly: "I will go to your place to get the wood carvings in the evening."
Sheng Lijue glanced at him and was too lazy to talk to him.
Shi Qiuqiu and Qiao Xiaoqing also bought vegetables and planned to cook a big meal tonight.
"You get busy first, I'll pick up Luoluo." Qiao Xiaoqing said and went out again. She didn't know how to cook, so staying there would be a hindrance.
Shi Qiuqiu responded and went into the kitchen to work.
What she liked most was this kitchen. Not only was it very big, it actually had a built-in oven. She prepared the ingredients for making a cake and planned to make a cake later.
Sheng Lijue looked at Shi Qiuqiu's back busy in the kitchen, and the orange light shone on the living room. He suddenly felt warm and at ease in his heart, as if he had returned home.
Yin Chenxuan came over and said teasingly: "Why don't you hurry over and help Qiuqiu?"
He said that and went downstairs to get the red wine, leaving the space for these two people.
"Do you need help?" Sheng Lijue rolled up his sleeves, and the white shirt tightly wrapped the strong muscles on his body, showing smooth lines.
"Then you can help me wash those dishes." Shi Qiuqiu thought for a moment and said, "You're welcome. It would be more time-consuming for her to do it alone."
Sheng Lijue hummed softly, took the dishes into the sink and started washing them, with the same meticulous and serious attitude as he did his work.
Shi Qiuqiu put the cake into the oven and prepared to start cooking.
This pot was a new one, and she was having trouble using it. Oil splashed on her hand accidentally, and she couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Sheng Lijue frowned and took the shovel: "I'll do it."
Shi Qiuqiu pursed her lips but did not grab it. Seeing Sheng Lijue cooking the vegetables seriously, an idea suddenly came to her mind.
This kind of life is quite good.
"I brought the red wine, where's the corkscrew?" Yin Chenxuan's voice brought Shi Qiuqiu back to her senses. She responded quickly, then opened the drawer, took out the corkscrew and handed it to him.
Yin Chenxuan took the bottle opener, looked at Shi Qiuqiu meaningfully, and said, "You guys cook slowly, I'm not in a hurry to eat."
Shi Qiuqiu was already immune to Yin Chenxuan's glib tone, so she ignored him and entered the kitchen again.
At this time, Sheng Lijue had already fried the vegetables and taken them out of the pot.
Shi Qiuqiu took a look and found that she was surprisingly appetizing.
Shi Qiuqiu nodded with satisfaction and then served it on the table.
"Wow, Shu Shu and Uncle Sheng, are you all here?" Luo Luo was very surprised when he saw Yin Chenxuan and Sheng Lijue as soon as he entered the door.
The godmother only told him that he would have cake to eat later, but did not say that his two uncles were here.
"Hi, Luo Luo." Yin Chenxuan smiled and greeted Luo Luo, then stepped forward to hug him.
During this time, they had become very familiar with each other, and Luoluo also liked this man very much, so he put his arms around his neck and kissed him.
Sheng Lijue came out of the kitchen and saw this scene. He felt a little sad and asked, "Do Luoluo miss Uncle Sheng?"
"Yes, the children in the hospital were envious of me for having so many toys, so I told them..." Luoluo leaned into Sheng Lijue's ear and whispered, "My father bought them for me."
After saying that, she began to look at this new home curiously.
When Sheng Lijue heard Luo Luo's words, he felt as if there was a piece of candy in his heart, which melted away all of a sudden. It was so sweet that he was a little overwhelmed.
He reached out and took Luo Luo from Yin Chenxuan's hand: "Come, Uncle Sheng will hug you."
Yin Chenxuan glanced at him with a half-smile.
At this time, the dishes were almost ready. Shi Qiuqiu put the last bowl of soup on the dining table, and then said to several people: "The food is ready, you go and wash your hands quickly."
However, Sheng Lijue took a step forward and took Shi Qiuqiu's hand. Looking at her red skin, he felt a little distressed.
"It's okay, I washed it with cold water and it will be fine later." Shi Qiuqiu withdrew her hand uncomfortably and went to prepare the dishes and chopsticks.
It was the first time for Yin Chenxuan to taste Shi Qiuqiu's cooking. After taking a bite, he gave a thumbs up: "Qiuqiu, your cooking is so good. None of the food I have eaten in the hotel is as good as yours."
eat."
"It's not as good as you said. What I cooked was just a few home-cooked dishes." Shi Qiuqiu smiled sheepishly and poured red wine for everyone and juice for Luoluo.
Several people raised their glasses together.
"Today is my first day of moving, and it is also the beginning of my new life. Thank you for your help during this period." Shi Qiuqiu looked at the people present sincerely and said, "Cheers!"
"Cheers." Luoluo said in a sweet voice and took a sip of the juice in the cup.
Several people were happily eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After having a full meal, Shi Qiuqiu went to the kitchen and brought out the cake. Because of Luoluo, there was no cream, but some fruits were added for decoration.
"Mom, I like my room so much." Luoluo said after looking at Shi Qiuqiu seriously after visiting her small room.
"When Luo Luo recovers, you can move in." Shi Qiuqiu smiled and cut a piece of cake for him, but felt a little bitter in her heart.
"Yes." Luoluo nodded obediently, took a bite of the cake, and praised: "The cake made by mom is so delicious."
When Yin Chenxuan saw them chatting, he pulled Sheng Lijue to the balcony and asked secretly, "You haven't told her yet, have you?"
Sheng Lijue was also a little worried and said lightly: "She is a little resistant to me now. I'm worried that it will have the opposite effect later."
"No way? What should you do now? Should you continue to hide it?" Yin Chenxuan was also worried about Sheng Lijue.
"I will find an opportunity to tell you." Sheng Lijue rubbed his brows, feeling a little tired.
Yin Chenxuan knew how hard Sheng Lijue had been looking for Shi Qiuqiu over the years. He didn't know how to solve his current predicament, so he didn't dare to come up with random ideas for fear of making a mistake and killing Sheng Lijue.
So Sheng Lijue was left alone on the balcony thinking about things.
After a while, Shi Qiuqiu came over and thanked Sheng Lijue seriously: "Thank you today."
She paused and smiled sheepishly: "I always seem to be thanking you."
Sheng Lijue showed a faint smile, his eyes as deep as the sea: "I just want to help you, I don't need your thanks."
