Perhaps it was because her father and brother said she had gained weight last night that she obviously lost her appetite when eating at home at noon.
He looked at the food in front of him with dull eyes.
On weekends, Liu Changqing cooked a table of meals at home for the first time in a long time. Because his daughter liked chicken, he even went to the market to buy a chicken.
She seemed to have no appetite for the colorful, fragrant and delicious food.
He didn't move his chopsticks for a long time.
Liu Changqing stopped putting the rice in his mouth and took a look at his daughter's depressed look and thought for a moment.
Put the chicken legs into her bowl.
"Chicken has the lowest calories and doesn't taste meaty."
"Really!"
When Liu Xiazhi heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then the smile returned to her face, and she picked up the chopsticks on the side.
"Dad, really, why didn't you tell me earlier if chicken doesn't make you fat?"
After saying this, he started to eat.
It tastes delicious and very appetizing.
She also looks more and more like Liu Changqing.
It's just that girls... can eat so much, isn't it bad?
In my memory, when my son was the same size as Liu Xiazhi, he was also a slender young lady. Then after being influenced by his cooking skills, he began to become rounder.
My daughter...should not go down that path, right?
As if noticing her father's gaze, Liu Xiazhi stopped chewing the chicken legs and exposed two rows of teeth towards Liu Changqing.
Smile brightly.
Then he continued to eat.
"..."
No, I absolutely cannot let my daughter continue to eat like this without restraint.
Liu Changqing was silent for a while, planning something in his mind.
"I'm stuffed."
Liu Zhiyue said this.
His son's words pulled Liu Changqing back from his thoughts and he looked at his son with a surprised look on his face.
"You'll be full after just one bowl of rice?"
"I don't seem to eat much now."
"Have another bowl, there's still a lot of rice left."
"I won't eat anymore. One bowl is just right. I'll go back to the house and read a book first."
After saying this, Liu Zhiyue stood up from his seat.
"Bang bang bang."
There was a knock on the door, and both father and son looked at the door.
Liu Xiazhi continued to eat.
"I'll open the door."
With that said, Liu Zhiyue walked towards the door. After opening the door, his expression gradually became a little strange.
Zhao Xuanwen stood outside the door.
She looked at Liu Zhiyue in front of her with her eyes, first looking at his face, and then moving her eyes downwards, looking back and forth twice.
Looking back at Liu Zhiyue's face, he tilted his head slightly and asked.
"who are you?"
"..."
She stretched her head forward, wanting to look inside the house, but because Liu Zhiyue was standing at the door, her view of the house was blocked.
After trying it for a while, Zhao Xuanwen asked politely.
"Have Liu Changqing's family moved away?"
"Are you stupid...I am Liu Zhiyue."
"Um?"
He was stunned for a moment, then pouted as if he was angry.
"Don't try to lie to people, Liu Zhiyue obviously has a big belly!"
"..."
Too lazy to play this pointless and boring game with the other party, Liu Zhiyue turned around and walked into the house without looking at her.
After seeing Liu Zhiyue entering the house, Zhao Xuanwen quickly put away the expression on his face and trotted into the house.
"Are you kidding? Why are you ignoring me?"
After saying this, I saw the father and daughter sitting at the table eating and greeted them very politely.
"Uncle, I'm coming!"
"Have you eaten?"
Handing out his chopsticks, Liu Changqing asked politely.
Today's lunch was a little late. Logically speaking, lunch should have been finished at this time, but I subconsciously asked this question.
Hearing Liu Changqing's question, Zhao Xuanwen nodded and then answered.
"have eaten."
"How about some more?"
"Okay, okay!"
This answer stopped Liu Zhiyue from going back to the house, turned around and walked back to Zhao Xuanwen.
He moved his face closer and lowered his voice.
"Didn't you eat it?"
"But the food cooked by uncle is so delicious. Just smelling it makes me feel hungry again..."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and rubbed her belly.
"If you're not full, come and have some, and I'll serve you some food."
"Thank you uncle!"
Saying this with a smile, Zhao Xuanwen took down the small bag he was carrying, put it on the sofa, then pulled a chair and sat at the dining table.
After a while, Liu Changqing brought in a bowl of rice and a pair of chopsticks and handed them to her.
Taking it, Zhao Xuanwen smiled and thanked him again.
Seeing the girl's pleasing appearance, Liu Changqing responded with a smile and then sat on the chair.
Zhao Xuanwen smiled, picked up a piece of meat, and started eating.
As if aware of Liu Xiazhi's hard work, Zhao Xuanwen paused while eating, and then looked at her.
"Has Xia Zhi gained some weight?"
The eating movement paused. Liu Xiazhi looked at Zhao Xuanwen and was stunned for a few seconds.
Then he put down his chopsticks and ran back into the house screaming.
This suddenly happened so fast that Zhao Xuanwen didn't know what happened, and his face began to become a little flustered, and he looked at Liu Changqing.
"Uncle, did I say something wrong? Why didn't Xia Zhi eat..."
"It's okay, you can eat what you have. She was angry with her brother just now and was a little unhappy."
"Okay, I'll go and enlighten her after dinner!"
After responding like this, Zhao Xuanwen started eating.
Originally, Liu Changqing was almost full, but seeing the girl eating, he ordered another half bowl.
Originally, I was a little worried that the rice would be steamed too much and I wouldn't be able to finish it, but because of Zhao Xuanwen's arrival, there was no need to worry about this.
Just like the first time he came home to eat, Zhao Xuanwen came over after lunch and ate two more bowls.
After she was full, she put down the dishes and chopsticks, and took the initiative to help Liu Changqing clean up the mess on the table.
This is surprisingly sensible.
Liu Zhiyue saw everything.
Zhao Xuanwen's arrival prevented him from going back to the room. Instead, he sat on the sofa and looked at his deskmate of two years from time to time.
After carrying the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen, Zhao Xuanwen, who went to the bathroom to wash his hands, also came to sit next to the sofa.
He tilted his head and looked at Liu Zhiyue with a smile.
He spoke.
"You've lost a lot of weight this summer! I didn't even recognize you at first!"
"It's not that exaggerated."
"real!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Liu Zhiyue's belly.
Noticing her move, Liu Zhiyue hurriedly raised his hand to block the opponent's hand.
"Don't move your hands or feet!"
"..."
Liu Zhiyue's reaction made Zhao Xuanwen stunned.
Liu Zhiyue looked at Liu Zhiyue beside him, very puzzled.
She seemed to notice that the relationship between the two was starting to become a little unfamiliar...
