Qiao Ran woke up early in the morning and cooked beef porridge for Qiao Ze'an. She chopped the beef into fine pieces and added diced carrots and celery. The aroma filled the room, and then she brought the whole pot of porridge to the dining table.
Qiao Ze'an had already brushed his teeth and washed his face. He was sitting at the dining table waiting for his mother to serve him porridge.
At this time, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Qiao Ze'an slid off the dining stool and ran to open the door.
The person who came was none other than Zuo Chenye.
"An'an, good morning." Zuo Chenye smiled softly, "It smells so good. What can you make delicious?"
"Mommy made beef porridge for me. It's my favorite." Qiao Ze'an said in a milky voice.
"Really?" Zuo Chenye picked An An up, held him in his arms, and sat down at the dining table unceremoniously, "Place a bowl for me, too. I haven't had breakfast yet."
"I didn't cook your portion." Qiao Ran rolled his eyes at him.
This man lived across from her house and often came here to eat and drink. She asked him to find a nanny to cook for her, but he has never hired one so far.
Zuo Chenye stared at the large pot of beef porridge on the table, which clearly served three people. He said blankly, "Can you two finish it?"
She handed An An a bowl and filled another bowl for herself. She said angrily, "I'd rather throw it away if I can't finish it."
Thinking of last night, when he talked nonsense at the roasted sweet potato stall, she felt angry, but she couldn't tell what she was angry about.
Zuo Chenye, "..."
She was obviously nice to him last night, but after sleeping all night, she turned against him again and refused to recognize him.
At this time, Qiao Ze'an wisely pushed the bowl in front of him to Zuo Chenye, "You can eat mine."
Seeing Qiao Ze'an's tender little hand stretched out in front of him, Zuo Chenye was slightly startled, and his heart warmed, "An'an is the best and knows how to love others. Give me your favorite food. I am so touched. Thank you."
Qiao Ran glanced at Qiao Ze'an speechlessly. His son was actually helping outsiders. He was so young and could no longer support the family. He was easily bribed by Zuo Chenye.
Zuo Chenye touched An An's little head, stood up, filled a new bowl for An An, and helped him get a spoon, "Here, An An, be good, you eat this bowl."
"Well, okay." Qiao Ze'an started eating one bite after another.
After eating, Aunt Wang also came, "Mr. Qiao, where are the bowls? I'll wash them. I'll take An An to the kindergarten first."
Qiao Ran stood up and handed Qiao Ze'an the towel to wipe his mouth, "No, I'll go see An An off today."
She picked up An An and held her in her arms. When she had plenty of time, she hoped to spend more time with her children. She often couldn't take care of him when she was busy.
"Young Master Zuo, have you finished eating too?" Aunt Wang diligently cleared away the dishes.
"Yeah." Zuo Chenye responded.
For Aunt Wang, she has become accustomed to Zuo Chenye's existence. In fact, she always thought that they were husband and wife, a family of three living in harmony.
"Oh, Mr. Qiao, Mr. Zuo. Let me just say one more thing. It's too wasteful for you to rent two houses separately. It would be better if you just live together. There are rooms anyway. And the food for three people is much easier to prepare than the food for two people.
Aunt Wang giggled.
Qiao Ran had a dark look on his face.
It seems that now everyone thinks they should be a family of three.
Zuo Chenye felt very good after listening to it.
His clear voice was slightly louder, "I haven't hired anyone to clean my apartment. Aunt Wang, you can clean it for me from now on. I'll pay if your salary is doubled."
After he finished speaking, he took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Aunt Wang, "The key is for you. I usually use my fingerprint to open the lock. I will also make a copy for dinner in the future, thank you."
