The tax bureau's people did not leave, so did Lu Chen. It was only when the moon rose that they left Lu.
"What's going on? Did they find anything useful? "
Song Zhi shook his head and said somewhat mockingly: "No, Lu's financial information for half a year already made them crumble, let alone the accounts from a few years ago. It seems like they haven't figured out anything from morning till now, and will probably continue to come here tomorrow."
Lu Chen nodded her head, it was as she had guessed, those people's abilities were not bad enough to be professional, they could not even create such a storm.
Looking at the time, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, Mo Nuan was sure to be worried if she did not go back now.
"Song Zhi, if there's nothing else, you should get off work early."
When Lu Chen returned, the light in the living room was still on. He had heard the laughter of the two children from far away, and the exhaustion in his body was just swept away like that.
As he thought of this line in his mind, his wife and children's footsteps couldn't help but quicken.
Even though Mo Nuan had been playing with the little fellow in her arms, she still looked in the direction of the door and immediately noticed Lu Chen's figure.
After passing the words in her bosom to the old man next to him, she immediately stood up and pulled Lu Chen's hand. She examined Lu Chen from head to toe, and only after she had confirmed that Lu Chen was fine did she completely relax.
Lu Chen stroked Mo Nuan's hair and said somewhat helplessly: "What I said before wasn't a big deal, they can't do anything to me."
"Then why did you come back so late?"
"They haven't left yet, so naturally, I can't either. It's still better to show them some face."
Mo Nuan laughed, "It's good that you're fine, play with the kids for a while, I'll go and get you some food."
Lu Chen promptly pulled Mo Nuan's hand, "I will go with you."
Aunt Mei laughed at the side, "This couple has been wanting to stick together twenty-four hours a day. It's only been a single day, it's like we haven't seen each other for a month."
"Both of them are counting their days."
The two of them walked into the kitchen together. Mo Nuan saw that the dishes in the afternoon had turned cold and were a little greasy, but she did not like them. She thus prepared to cook a plate of rapeseed for Lu Chen.
During this period of time, she had been helping out in the kitchen and her cooking skills had improved as well. She quickly washed the rapeseed and cut the garlic into pieces.
After a while, the sound of cooking started coming from the kitchen.
Lu Chen sat at the side, watching as she stir-fried in a proper manner, the smile on her face gradually deepened as she walked behind her and embraced her. Her tone was filled with deep gratification, "We have gotten much better in terms of warmth, we don't even need to be reminded by the side anymore."
Mo Nuan was also amused by his tone, "Hubby, don't use such a tone to speak, it makes me feel stupid. I only learned to cook a few simple dishes when I'm almost thirty, if I tell others, I'll definitely be laughed to death."
"There are a lot of people who can't cook in their lifetime. Mom has learnt it, but not in cooking. Auntie Ye can't do it at all. It's said that up until now, you can't tell the difference between salt and sugar."
Hearing that, Mo Nuan became interested, and looked at Lu Chen in disbelief, "It can't be that ridiculous, I even feel that I'm already very stupid."
Lu Chen shrugged her shoulders, "I am not spouting nonsense. When we were young, the courtyard was not that wide, and we only had enough people to live in, many of them did not even invite servants. Zi Hao would often come to our house to get food, because Aunt Ye does not know how to cook, and if there was no one else in the house, they would frequently eat take-out food. Aunt Ye has also tried to cook, but it always ended in failure. You're the best, Aunt Ye is someone who doesn't have any talent for culinary arts. "
"Haha, then if Mi Nuo were to really marry into our family, then it would be really fun. Her culinary skills are comparable to those of the restaurants' chefs."
Mo Nuan had already eaten, but seeing that Lu Chen was eating and feeling hungry again, she accompanied him to eat a small bowl.
After eating, she looked at her bulging stomach and felt a little depressed. "If I accompany you like this often in the future, I'll definitely become a big fatty."
"Fatty definitely wouldn't. At most, he would just become a little fatty. Let's go, my little fatty, I'll take you for a walk." Lu Chen suddenly extended her hand out towards Mo Nuan.
The corner of Mo Nuan's mouth hooked up as she held Lu Chen's hand and stood up. Lu Chen pulled her by the waist and pulled her into her embrace.
Mo Nuan's face reddened, and she pouted unhappily as she poked Lu Chen in the chest a few times, "What kind of tone is this, do you dislike me? "Isn't that because of you? You have to let me eat. I already ate it once, so I won't accompany you to eat it next time."
"How could I turn my back on you? I like the way you look with a little more flesh on your body, so I hug you comfortably. "Alright, today is all my fault. I hate eating alone, so I must pull our family's warmth to accompany me." Lu Chen chuckled, and lagged at the same time.
Mo Nuan couldn't stand Lu Chen using such a tone to speak the most, and felt that she was acting coquettishly. However, every time he purposely spoke in such a manner, she felt that his heart was filled with sweetness.
The orange-yellow lamp imprinted with the exceptionally beautiful flowers of the courtyard. Smelling the fragrance of the flowers, and the slightly cold night wind, Mo Nuan felt that they had not walked hand in hand for a very long time.
Seeing the small rocks on the ground, the little girl's temper was completely exposed. She couldn't help but kick them a few times.
"Warmth, I truly regret not finding you when I first met you." If he had known her earlier, they wouldn't have taken so many detours to get together, and he would have been able to participate in her life earlier.
"You don't have to say that. I know you didn't even think of that at the time." Mo Nuan rolled her eyes at Lu Chen.
At that time, it was just a small matter. As a girl, she was easily moved, but to him, it might have just been helping a child. She didn't think that she had any bright light that could instantly attract his attention.
Lu Chen did not speak, as though she was thinking about what she had said.
Mo Nuan continued, "If you had known me at that time, I doubt that we would have been able to develop feelings for each other. I still feel that this kind of meeting between us is not too bad, neither early nor late, and it's perfect.
If they met too early, perhaps they would be more passionate and impulsive. But what could that mean? After meeting impulsively, they might even let out a sigh.
After the passion of marriage there was nothing more than indifference.
The facts also proved that there were very few people who had a first love.
In short, she was very satisfied with her current state.
"Warmth, you sure are open-minded." Lu Chen also felt that what Mo Nuan said was reasonable.
Mo Nuan laughed, and suddenly sneezed.
Lu Chen frowned, she immediately took off his jacket and put it on her, "Be careful, don't get a cold."
Her clothes still had Lu Chen's warmth left on them, so Mo Nuan raised her head to give Lu Chen a sweet smile. Her distinct black and white eyes were like bright moonlight with specks of starlight.
"Warmth, I really like those eyes of yours." She was very beautiful and attractive, and she always made him unable to extricate himself.
"Am I that unremarkable? Mo Nuan was a little depressed. She had never felt that she was some kind of great beauty, at most, she could be considered pretty, but Lu Chen was different. She liked all of his facial features very much.
However, in his eyes, she was not like that. Only her eyes were good-looking.
Seeing Mo Nuan's awkward look, Lu Chen finally could not hold back and laughed out loud. She bent down to peck at her lips, "A beauty's eyes can see the light of hand, someone else only took a glance at me, what can't you say?"
Mo Nuan turned her face away slightly, "Smooth talker, you only know how to make me happy."
