Upon hearing this, Lu Jinyu smirked, “Has Sister-in-law specially prepared lunch? I want some too. I’ll go home with you!”

“A free meal? Forget it.”

“What the hell!” Lu Jinyu muttered, “You have no spirit of sharing at all!”

“If you talk too much, you might find your annual leave gone.”

“… I wouldn’t dare.” Lu Jinyu immediately stood up respectfully and said hurriedly, “Boss, do hurry home for your lunch! Drive safe!” With a wave of his hand, the man drifted away.

Mu Yazhe arrived home and parked his car in the garage. The moment he opened the door, he was greeted by a strong whiff of aroma.

Orléans wings? His nose was so sensitive that he could even tell what was cooking.

Yun Shishi was in the dining room setting the table. When she saw that he was home, she immediately came to him and happily wrapped her arms around his waist. Her tone was as gentle as it could be.

“You’re home!” Her brisk tone sounded like she was in a good mood!

He ruffled her hair, and looked at her with great fondness. “You seem in such a good mood today. Is there something we’re celebrating?”

“Of course there is!” With her arms still around him, she nuzzled him playfully before turning towards the kitchen and calling out, “Are you done, Youyou?”

“Yes, I’m done!”

Mu Yazhe looked in the direction of the voice and saw the boy emerging with a soup pot. When he saw that Youyou was wearing an apron, he was surprised for a moment. This was because Gong Fan was extremely bad at cooking. He did not know how to do housework either. However, he had inherited Mu Yazhe’s outstanding talent in military affairs and business. Usually, when Shengyu encountered a tricky case, he was able to give advice.

However, he knew nothing about housework. Only Youyou… Only Youyou’s personality was skilled at housework.

Mu Yazhe shot Yun Shishi a dubious look, then shifted his gaze to the boy, who was carrying the soup pot to the table. Youyou looked up and smiled warmly at his father. “Daddy, time for lunch!”

“…?” The man’s bewilderment grew as his eyes widened in disbelief.

“You know how to cook?” He looked at Yun Shishi again, but she was deliberately keeping him in suspense and saying nothing.

The boy laughed upon hearing this. “Mommy, didn’t you tell Daddy about it?”

“No. Tell him yourself.” With that, Yun Shishi sat down at the table and drooled at the spread the boy had prepared.

Frustrated, the boy scratched his brow and looked up at his father. Embarrassed, he cleared his throat in a tsundere manner. “Daddy doesn’t seem to welcome me back?”

If Mu Yazhe hadn’t caught on to what was happening by now, he wouldn’t be Mu Yazhe!

“It’s you…” The man was extremely surprised. “You’re back?”

The boy nodded and said faintly, “You don’t welcome me back, do you? Why do you look so indifferent?”

Mu Yazhe’s posture stiffened for some reason. The disbelief and… excitement almost made him tremble.

“Come here…” He lowered himself slightly until he was eye level with the boy and gently opened his arms. “Come here.”

Pursing his lips, Youyou began to walk towards his father. When he came up to Mu Yazhe, he clasped his hands awkwardly behind his back, his cheeks strangely flushed.

He seemed both shy and nervous.
