Lan Ze was brought to the kitchen by Chu Liang in a daze. Chu Liang placed a bowl of vegetables in front of him and said, "Wash it clean."
After feeling the cold water, Lan Ze became a little more spirited. He pointed at the strange man in the living room and asked, "Who is that person?"
Chu Liang followed his finger and looked at it, "Oh him, I used to know a doctor in China, but this time we've met again. He's a good person, so I'm going to treat him to a meal."
When Lan Ze heard Chu Liang's tone, it carried a trace of happiness. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
The blue fish silently washed the dishes. Chu Liang cut them up and threw them neatly into the pot. After adding the seasonings, he began to stir-fry. After a while, a burst of fragrance wafted out.
Xia Jinyang couldn't sit still and walked into the kitchen. When he discovered that Chu Liang was excellent at cooking, he was even more surprised.
"Miss Chu, how can you be so good at everything?"
Chu Liang raised his head to look at Xia Jingyang. He gently smiled and shook his head, "I just liked it in the past, but after studying it for a while, it became like this."
"So powerful." Xia Jingyang looked at it for a while and noticed that when Lan Ze was helping, he suddenly felt that something wasn't right. "Do you need my help?"
"No need." Chu Liang waved his hand. Because he was holding a spatula, the spatula also shook a bit, "You can just sit and rest."
Xia Jingyang nodded his head and returned to the sofa. When he saw Chu Yuexi lowering her head and staring at her phone, he turned his head and asked, "Xixi, do you want uncle to help you put on a cartoon?"
Chu Yuexi raised her head and glanced at Xia Jingyang. Perhaps it was because he had been maintaining that posture for too long, but he also felt a little sore on his neck, "Good ~"
Xia Jingyang found the remote control and turned on the TV. He then turned it to the Children's Channel and saw Piggy Page.
Chu Yuexi raised her head to watch the television screen, the corners of her mouth twitching, "Uncle, I don't like to watch childish things like this."
Xia Jingyang was startled as he looked at Chu Yuanyuan for a long time, "Then what do you like to see?"
Chu Yuexi took the remote control and adjusted it to the documentary channel. The image of the cheetah hunting appeared on it.
Chu Yuanyuan leaned back comfortably on the sofa and prepared to eat the potato chips, but she discovered that the large bag of potato chips had already disappeared.
"Uncle." Chu Yuexi quietly called out to Xia Jingyang. Xia Jingyang suspiciously looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"My potato chips are gone. I need to go upstairs." Chu Yuanyuan shook the empty bag, "Can you do me a favor?"
Xia Jingyang looked at Chu Yuexi as if she was a little adult, lightly smiled and nodded: "Tell me about it."
Chu Yuexi stole a glance in Chu Liang's direction and softly said, "Don't let my mommy discover that I've disappeared. She only lets me eat a packet of potato chips every day."
Xia Jingyang thought for a moment. As a doctor, he knew that regular snacks was not good for children. He shook his head and said, "Mummy always hopes that you're well, so stop eating. We'll eat later."
Chu Yuexi pouted dejectedly, her cheeks pouting in anger.
Xia Jingyang smiled and rubbed his hair, then said lovingly, "We're the most obedient, aren't we?"
Chu Yuexi sighed and gloomily nodded, "I understand."
Dr. Xia was the same as Mommy!
After an hour, all sorts of dishes were served to the table. After Chu Liang was done setting up the tableware, he took off his apron and looked towards Xia Jingyang and Chu Yuexi.
"Pity, Uncle Xia came over to eat together with you."
Chu Yuan pulled on Xia Jingyang's sleeve. Xia Jingyang smiled, picked up Chu Yuan and walked towards the dining table.
When Lan Ze saw how close Chu Yuexi and Xia Jingyang were, he narrowed his eyes in displeasure and looked at Chu Yuexi warily.
Chu Yuexi suddenly felt Uncle Lanze's strange gaze and suspiciously looked at him. However, Lanze immediately retracted his gaze and pretended as if nothing had happened as he began to eat.
Because he was entertaining Xia Jingyang today, he sat in the main seat while Lan Ze and Chu Liang sat on both sides.
Chu Liang began to scoop the rice one by one and handed it to Xia Jingyang.
Chu Yuexi sat beside Chu Liang. Because she wasn't tall, she specially prepared a child's seat for him. Only then could she barely reach the table.
"What do you want to eat?"
Chu Yuexi looked around and saw her favorite Four Xi pills. She immediately pointed at them.
Chu Liang helped him place the chopsticks into the bowl and Chu Yuexi began to eat with her chopsticks.
Xia Jingyang couldn't help but be astonished. Ordinary children at this age would still use spoons or forks, but Chu Yuexi had already started using chopsticks.
"Dr. Xia, hurry and eat." Chu Liang enthusiastically greeted them. When he raised his head and saw how silent Bluesea was, he suddenly recalled that he hadn't introduced the two of them yet.
"Little Ze." Chu Liang called out for Lan Ze. Lan Ze raised his head to look at her and raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong?"
Chu Liang pointed at Lan Ze and introduced him to Xia Jingyang, "This is my younger brother, Lan Ze."
"Younger brother?" Xia Jingyang was a bit surprised, but before Chu Liang could reply, Lan Ze denied, "She is not related by blood, and I am not her brother."
Chu Liang looked at Lan Ze in disbelief. Lan Ze suddenly put down his chopsticks and extended his hand towards Xia Jingyang, "Hello, I'm Lan Ze. Currently, I'm living together with Chu Liang …"
He pondered for a moment. "If you counted all the time that I've lost, it's already been eight years."
Xia Jingyang was startled when he heard Lan Ze's introduction, but still shook hands with him out of a gentleman's demeanor, "Hello, I'm Xia Jingyang."
Chu Liang heard Bluesea's ambiguous words and furrowed his brows. For a moment, he didn't understand why Bluesea would suddenly be in such a bad mood.
Chu Yuexi ate by the side, as if everything that happened to adults had nothing to do with her.
Suddenly feeling a line of sight fall on her body, Chu Yuexi lifted her head and met Blue Ze's eyes, indicating that he should speak for her.
"Ah!" Chu Yuexi cried out in alarm, "accidentally" knocking over the rice bowl in front of her. Her small face was all wrinkled up, and she looked at Chu Liang with grievance, "Mommy, your hands have slipped."
Chu Liang immediately stood up and made sure that Chu Yuexi wasn't injured before letting out a sigh of relief. While wiping his dirty hands, he chided, "Mommy is telling you to be careful?"
Chu Yuexi obediently nodded her head and stole a glance at it. She discovered that Bluesea had already retracted his gaze and was continuing to eat.
Xia Jingyang also began to eat, but still looked towards Chu Yuexi's direction with worry.
The atmosphere between the two men was very ingenious. Chu Liang took care of the matter on Chu Yuexi's side and picked up his chopsticks once again.
"Miss Chu, eat this."
"Cold, I'll give you your favorite Red Braised Ribs."
