Chapter 24 You are also worthy of the soup I made?
I studied by myself until one o'clock in the afternoon, and my brain became dizzy due to low blood sugar.
Only then did Yu Ruanruan realize that she hadn't had any water all morning.
But you don’t know you are hungry?
The sound of a car horn came from downstairs, and the Maybach slowly stopped. After Huo Xu got out of the car, he hung his coat casually on his arms, pulled his tie, and stepped into the living room.
The dining room and living room are open, and there is a faint aroma of cold food floating in the air.
He frowned, turned his gaze, and saw the lunch meal placed on the dining table.
Four dishes and one soup. The aunt who cooks the dishes at home is very good at cooking, but it’s a pity that Yu Ruanruan didn’t even take a bite?
"what happened?"
The man's voice is low and cold.
The housekeeper sweated, "Sir, Miss Ruanruan has been studying by herself all morning. She came in and called twice, but she ignored her, so we didn't dare..."
Huo Xu raised his lips, a little amused, "Are you suddenly starting to study seriously?"
He glanced around the dining table, then fixed on a blue and white porcelain casserole, opened the lid, and the fragrance of lotus seeds filled his nostrils.
Feng Miao was startled.
this……
Isn't it the soup that Cheng Cheng often made for him before?
The housekeeper hurriedly explained, "Miss Ruanruan made this by herself when she got up at seven in the morning, but she didn't eat a bite."
Huo Xu's eyes froze.
He put his coat and briefcase back on the sofa, unbuttoned the two buttons on his shirt collar, and went straight upstairs.
"Click——"
The door opened inward just as he was about to push it open, and a frail little body plunged straight into his arms.
Huo Xu had quick eyes and quick hands and immediately protected her forehead.
Seeing her pale face clearly, a surge of anger surged into my heart, "Yu Ruanruan! Don't you want to live anymore? You're injured and you can't even eat well?"
Didn’t you say that after you come back from rebirth, you should live well and change your destiny?
You don’t even cherish your own body, but you still want to talk about your destiny? You still want to talk about the future?
When Yu Ruanruan was about to look for food, she bumped into this evil god when she went out. She was scolded and looked up at the man a little numbly.
I want to take the opportunity to pretend to be weak and sell out miserably.
But my stomach was churning, and I was so hungry that I lost consciousness.
The whole person was numb.
"I was just going to eat."
She raised a strong smile, just the right amount of fragile, "The paper is too difficult. I was so absorbed in it that I lost track of time."
Huo Xu frowned and his eyes stayed on the girl's face, trying to hear her mental activities.
But no, it was quiet all around.
"Huo Xu, are you planning to hold me and let me starve to death in your arms?"
The girl's teasing tone made his ears warm.
Only then did the man realize that he had lost control out of nervousness.
He let go of her hands, his breath was calm and cold, and he said in a cold voice, "The food is cold. I'll ask the butler to reheat it for you."
10 minutes later, restaurant.
Yu Ruanruan held the bowl, blew in the hot air, and took a bite of the lotus seed soup.
The whole process was so quiet that not a single sound was made. He ate well and looked appetizing.
Huo Xu was reading a newspaper on the side, sitting upright, but his eyes occasionally glanced at the girl who was eating silently next to him.
It's too quiet.
It was so quiet that Huo Xu even wondered if his mind-reading skills were malfunctioning?
The fragrance of lotus seed soup drifted to his nose from time to time. He was very familiar with this smell. In the past, when he was not in good health, Cheng Cheng would make lotus seed soup for him when he was sick.
It turns out that Yu Ruanruan can also do it?
I haven't tasted this taste for a long time, and I miss it a bit.
I saw that there was still half a pot left in the casserole, but the girl had already eaten three bowls. She looked like she was full.
Huo Xu put down the newspaper in his hand, took a clean small bowl, stretched out his hand, raised the spoon, and was about to serve it.
"Clang-"
The casserole in front of him was suddenly picked up by the girl, and the tableware collided with each other, making a crisp ding-dong sound.
Huo Xu was startled at first when he saw her fierce look, and then couldn't help laughing. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, "Can you finish eating by yourself?"
"Finish eating."
Yu Ruanruan hugged the casserole and vowed.
"Eat less, overeat, be careful not to stretch your belly." Huo Xu supported his chin with both hands, staring at her with a smile, with a doting tone that even he could not detect.
"So I'm going to pour it into the sink to feed the puppy."
Yu stood up softly, carried the casserole into the kitchen, and poured the remaining lotus seed soup into the trash can.
[Eat, eat, eat! Do you deserve to eat the soup made by my mother? 】
[It’s because I’m blind and the lard is blinding my heart! I’ve made soup for you for so many years, and in the end, all the good things will be recorded on Yu Chengcheng’s head.]
The girl had already walked away, but the man in the restaurant suddenly froze.
The housekeeper wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly, "Master, Miss Ruanruan got up early today to make soup for you. It's all because of those two talkative guys who said some gossip. She probably felt unhappy.
.”
"What did you say?" Huo Xu's dark eyes turned cold, and the mole at the end of his eye became more dazzling and scarlet.
"Actually, I didn't say anything. I just talked about Miss Cheng Cheng's phone call this morning..."
There was no need for the housekeeper to continue, Huo Xu had roughly guessed something.
Cheng Cheng did call in the morning, but she was hesitant and seemed to be in some trouble.
Because he had an impromptu dinner party, Huo Xu ended the conversation in a hurry.
So, is that woman Yu Ruanruan jealous?
"Buzz buzz-"
The cell phone rang at this moment.
Huo Xu glanced at the caller ID and frowned.
Thinking of the morning, Cheng Cheng was flustered and confused on the phone, guessing that he was really in trouble.
He raised his hand to signal the housekeeper to stop first, then turned around to answer the phone.
"Well, I'm here, you say."
The housekeeper was still frightened just now, but when he saw the young master's tone suddenly softened, he couldn't help but take a peek.
The young master's face, which had always been impatient, now looked serious. You didn't need to guess who was calling.
"Huo Xu, you...can you help me? I really don't know what to do..."
Sure enough, Yu Chengcheng's crying sound came intermittently on the phone.
