“However, I agree with your idea.” Adrian Zhekova said, “Striking a balance between safety and individuality is better at this stage.”

“It’s still the early stage of the competition, it’s not yet the time to diverge from the mainstream. Moreover, the judges might simply mean what they say, without expecting any fancy ideas from the contestants.”

“Just like the previous competition where the theme was snacks, what they truly wanted was straightforward snacks. Contestants who tried to prepare gourmet dishes under the guise of ‘snacks’ were all eliminated. So, interpreting the judges’ words for their literal meaning is the right course. Trying to standout with fancy details only outsmarts oneself.”

Cindy Clarke nodded along, reassured by Adrian’s words and agreeing with his viewpoint.

“Then I will use this line of thinking.” Cindy said, “Before now, I was just wondering whether or not I should start with seafood. Because I was unsure about this, that’s why I was hesitating.”

Besides this, so many things hit her all at once after the competition.

There hasn’t been a chance to take a breather.

First, she was confessed to by this man.

And then started to move in today, busy with all the moving house matters.

Thinking about it, she hadn’t had a chance to rest for all of today.

Only now has she genuinely had some spare time.

Having dinner while chatting with Adrian.

Thus, she hasn’t had time to think about the next competition.

Thankfully there are still two weeks left, she still has time to think it over.

“Oh, right, I need to let the nursery know, to stop sending the school bus over.” Cindy suddenly remembered this.

After finishing the meal, Cindy took out the school bus route map.

It turned out that the school bus would pass this area anyway, all because of Adrian’s prime location.

It is a must-pass location for many routes.

Even if the school bus has to change its route, it shouldn’t be troublesome.

Although there are not many students in the class and the school bus will pick up and drop off,

The bus route and timing are all planned according to each family’s address.

When one family makes a change, the route must be redrawn, and the timing for other children will also change.

Some parents might be unhappy with the change in school bus timings.

For example, if the timing is earlier than before, the child will have less sleep, and the parents will be unhappy.

And so on, many issues may arise.

Therefore, changing the school bus route can be quite troublesome.

When the time comes, without her prompting him, he goes back to the bedroom to sleep on his own.

He certainly doesn’t need her to coax him into sleeping or listen to bedtime stories.

Morgan felt that Cindy was always busy.

So, he would prefer to do things on his own and not trouble Cindy.

Morgan is really considerate. He has made do without Cindy cooing over him for quite some time.

Over time, Cindy gradually got used to this.

She got so used to it that she neglected the fact that Morgan, only four years old, still needed to be cooed at times.

When children his age were still being cooed to sleep and still listening to bedtime stories.

She has been neglecting Morgan.

He wasn’t incapable of handling it himself, but he just didn’t want to trouble her.

This familiarity can easily be taken for granted over time.

This time, it served as a wake-up call for Cindy, she felt apologetic towards Morgan.

She is really a poor mother.

“Alright.” Cindy immediately agreed, “I’ll tell you a story and wait till you’re asleep before leaving.”

Morgan was about to happily roll into Cindy’s arms.

Suddenly, Adrian chimed in “I’ll tell the story.”

Morgan and Cindy both looked towards Adrian.

When he saw two pairs of eyes, the same as each other, looking back at him together.

Adrian couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment.

Immediately, Morgan said, “No need, no need.”

“Cindy, you tell the story!” Adrian tell a story?

Don’t joke around!

He couldn’t imagine it!

Morgan felt that Adrian simply just didn’t want him sticking to Cindy.

Adrian pretended not to hear Morgan’s words, and gently yet earnestly said to Cindy, “I just started acknowledging our relationship with Morgan, I want to spend more time with him.”

“I haven’t read him a bedtime story before, I haven’t coaxed him to sleep.” Adrian said, “I initially thought Morgan was beyond the age for this. ”

Saying this, Adrian glanced at Morgan.

He saw straight through the child.
