Nian Mu was startled. In front of a pile of ingredients, she didn't think much and arranged them according to her own habits without hesitation.
Three years ago, Mu Shaoling would walk into the kitchen to watch her cooking when he had free time. He once wondered about her cooking habits. At that time, she patiently explained why she arranged the dishes like this...
"Yeah?" Nian Mu was just flustered for a few seconds, then quickly returned to normal, and turned back to look at him, "Mr. Mu, have you ever seen other people arrange things like this?"
"My wife," Mu Shaoling said, "she used to like to arrange it like this."
Nian Mu nodded. She had developed this arrangement since she was a child. Even though she had not been in the kitchen for three years, she could still do it skillfully when looking at a pile of dishes.
She said: "I learned this online. When faced with a mess, I think this arrangement can help me finish cooking faster. In fact, it's more than that. I also like this in the laboratory. All
All the experimental tools are arranged according to the way I am accustomed to, so that I don’t have to waste time looking for them and can find the tools I want at once.”
Mu Shaoling nodded and glanced at the cooking table again, thoughtfully.
It is normal for people to have similarities between people. Perhaps some of Nian Mu's little habits are similar to those of Ruan Bai before, so Taotao feels familiar with her and is willing to get close to her.
But what about him?
Mu Shaoling was puzzled. He had never wanted to get to know someone so quickly, and he had never wanted to get to know her personally like this.
There is something wrong with him like this.
Seeing that he was still standing here, Nian Mu said, "Mr. Mu, can you go out first? I'm not used to having other people around when I'm cooking."
She was afraid that some of her little habits would be seen by Mu Shaoling again.
He was so familiar with her that he could associate her with just a small placement habit.
Although only Nian Mu would be worried.
Perhaps if she did more of the things she was accustomed to before, Mu Shaoling would not associate her with Ruan Bai, but seeing the confusion in his eyes, she felt sour and uncomfortable.
What kind of virtue and ability does she have to make this man so attracted to her?
Mu Shaoling nodded and retreated.
Nian Mu breathed a sigh of relief, but the sense of loss in her heart was extremely magnified. Just now, she wished that Mu Shaoling would be suspicious.
But no, everything was indifferent as usual.
Nian Mu looked at the cooking table that was piled with many things. In a daze, he took out all the remaining ingredients in the bag and started cooking.
Mu Shaoling sat on a chair in the dining room, listening to the goings on in the kitchen.
It's close to the kitchen and the door is not closed, so I can hear it very clearly.
Hearing the sound of Nian Mu turning on the faucet, his eyes became more profound. Everyone has their own way of placing things, but not everyone can learn this way.
Nian Mu's explanation just now was a bit far-fetched.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Taotao felt that the animation on TV was very boring, so he ran over and asked.
"It's nothing." Mu Shaoling said, not intending to tell the child this.
Taotao pouted, and when she was about to speak, her cell phone rang.
Mu Shaoling took out his cell phone and took a look. It was a call from Ruan Bai.
He answered the phone.
"Shaoling, the housekeeper said that you and Taotao won't come back for dinner, are you having a social event?" Ruan Bai's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Mu Shaoling looked at Taotao lying on the table and said, "The company has something to do and I have to work overtime."
"Take Taotao?" Ruan Bai was a little doubtful. Today, after the driver, Uncle Zhang, said that Taotao had been picked up by Mu Shaoling, she didn't think much about it. She couldn't help but think about it until Mu Shaoling didn't come back for dinner.
.
"Taotao is not feeling well. I went to pick him up from school early today and is now working overtime at the company." Mu Shaoling explained.
"Well, how about I bring you some food?" Ruan Bai felt more at ease after listening to his explanation.
She didn't know why, but as long as there was something abnormal about Mu Shaoling now, she couldn't help but think more about his relationship with Ivana.
"No, we've already ordered takeout." Mu Shaoling looked at Taotao smiling playfully at the side, as if saying he shouldn't lie.
But he had to tell this lie. If Ruan Bai knew where he was now, she would definitely think wildly and go crazy.
Ruan Bai was too lazy to go. T Group was far away from the old house. If she didn't want to maintain her concern, she wouldn't have said such a thing.
When she heard that he said no, she felt happy and said, "Okay, then you finish your work early and come back early."
"Yeah." Mu Shaoling responded and ended the call.
Taotao smiled there and said, "Dad, it's not good to lie."
"If you weren't greedy, would I have lied?" Mu Shaoling said with a straight face as he watched the child destroy the situation without giving any face.
"Dad, you also want to eat, so you will agree." Taotao said, he is smart, and he is smarter than others when he sees these things.
"Don't tell others what happened today." Mu Shaoling warned.
"I know!" Taotao also understood what was going on. He put his index finger in front of his mouth, blinked and said, "This is a secret between me, my father, and my sister!"
Nian Mu was very busy in the kitchen.
Taotao is a child, and he doesn't have the sensitivity of an adult, so the dishes she cooked last time were all based on her previous seasoning habits, and he wouldn't be able to taste anything.
But Mu Shaoling is different.
From what just happened, she realized that some of her previous habits were still imprinted on his heart, so she had to change her formula.
The dish is not unpalatable when made, but the taste is not the same as before.
Nianmu tried his best to prevent him from finding out.
An hour and a half later, she prepared the four dishes and one soup. She tried the taste with her chopsticks and found that it was different from the previous ones. Then she took the food out with confidence.
"Sister, it smells so good!" Taotao cheered from the side.
Nian Mu was so praised that he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's time to eat. Go and wash your hands."
"Okay!" Taotao took Mu Shaoling's hand, "Dad, wash your hands!"
Mu Shaoling nodded slightly and glanced at the dishes on the dinner table, suddenly feeling a little hopeful.
Her arrangement habits are exactly the same as Ruan Bai's, but what about the taste of the cooking?
After Mu Shaoling took Taotao to wash her hands, Nianmu had already packed the rice. She handed the bowl of rice in the insulated bowl to Taotao, and then handed the other bowl of rice to Mu Shaoling.
"Thank you, sister!" Taotao smiled brightly at her and took a bite of soft rice first.
"Eat it quickly." Nian Mu sat opposite him, glanced at Mu Shaoling, and said, "Mr. Mu, how about you try this taste? If the taste is not enough, I will take it in and mix it up."
