Translator: 549690339
Just before noon break, Nanny Zhang brought lunch. There was enough food for two people and Wen Ran couldn’t finish it by herself, so she called Sister Li to join her.
Both of them sat on the couch in her office, eating the food cooked by Nanny Zhang. Sister Li laughed and said, “Ranran, it seems I misunderstood Mo Xiuchen. Even though you two didn’t have feelings for each other before marriage, his care and attention to you is rarely seen in other men.”
Wen Ran’s brows lifted slightly in a smile, MO Xiuchen had truly been good to her.
His help during the Wen Family’s crises filled her with gratitude. She swallowed her food and cheerily said, “Sister Li, your cooking is excellent. Can you teach me how to cook a few dishes?”
Sister Li’s eyes twinkled with curiosity, she stared at Wen Ran’s bright smile and teased her, “Are you planning to learn cooking for MO Xiuchen? Ranran, are you sure you want to learn?”
Before the Wen Family faced troubles, Wen Ran was a pampered little lady who didn’t lift a finger. Her parents and elder brother spoiled her rotten, she couldn’t even tell sugar from salt.
In just a short span of half a month, Sister Li felt the girl sitting across from her had grown up by at least five years. She had become mature, patient, and strong…
She was completely different from the Wen Ran before.
Wen Ran confidently admitted, “MO Xiuchen has done so much for me, I should repay him somehow. I can’t help much in other aspects. I learned a few dishes he likes to eat from Nanny Zhang a few days ago, and I’m thinking of learning how to cook them when I have the time.”
“Alright, if you want to learn, I’ll teach you. If there’s anything I don’t know how to cook, my husband, who is a head chef at a star-rated hotel, will teach you.”
Wen Ran’s eyes sparkled, seizing the moment to say, “Why wait for another day when you can start today? MO Xiuchen mentioned that Qin Mu will be coming to the factory this afternoon, and we can leave work early.”
“In such a hurry?”
Sister Li looked at her in surprise.
Wen Ran laughed, picking up a chicken leg and putting it into Sister Li’s bowl, “This weekend is MO Xiuchen’s birthday. If I can learn to cook these dishes in a few days, I can prepare them for him as a special birthday gift!”
Sister Li nodded her head in agreement, given Qin Mu’s capability, he can assist Wen Ran in managing the factory with ease, there’s definitely no need to worry. She agreed cheerfully, “Alright, if Ah Mu is here to help, it shouldn’t be a problem for us to leave an hour or two early.”
In the afternoon, Qin Mu reported to the Wen Family punctually. Wen Ran convened a high-level meeting to inform all departments.
With Qin Mu’s help, she had the afternoon off. At 4 0’clock, she and Sister Li left work early to go to the supermarket and buy ingredients.
Sister Li’s husband is a head chef at a star-rated hotel, so Wen Ran didn’t need to worry about selecting ingredients.
As soon as they left the supermarket, MO Xiuchen called. Wen Ran answered and said hello, only to hear MO Xiuchen asking, “You’re not at the factory, where did you go?”
Wen Ran paused, subconsciously stopping in her tracks, “How do you know I’m not at the factory, did you go to the factory?”
She wasn’t guessing wildly, she happened to hear Zhou Mingfu’s voice, she was just surprised that MO Xiuchen would go to the factory.
“Hmm, I came to pick you up from work.”
MO Xiuchen simply explained. Wen Ran was startled, moving the phone away from her ear to look at the time. Only then did she realize that they had unknowingly spent over an hour shopping, and it was time to finish work.
She smiled apologetically and said, “I’m with Sister Li, we’re handling something. Please go ahead, I’ll be home later..”
