Mu Yichen raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He had no idea what on earth was going on with the woman and the little girl.
His little glutton had always been very stingy with food, so when had there ever been a time where the little dumpling thought of sharing her food with her father?
“Daddy?” The little dumpling could not help but pout as her hand started feeling sore while holding the fork in the air.
Mu Yichen quickly moved his head forward and gulped the pineapple.
“Mmm, it does taste pretty sweet.”
Having accomplished her mission, the little dumpling stuffed the fork into her father’s hand. “Daddy, eat!”
Then, she ran back to the kitchen to check out her big sister.
Luo Chenxi was stunned when she saw the little dumpling running up to her.
Before this all started, she instructed Tang Tang to keep Young Master Mu company in the living room while he ate the fruit, but it turned out that Tang Tang could not stay still at all.
“What about daddy?”
“Daddy is already a grown up. Daddy knows how to eat fruit by himself.” The little dumpling blinked her big, round eyes.
Luo Chenxi walked to the kitchen door and peeked at the living room.
Mu Yichen had not even changed out of this suit yet. He was sitting upright on the sofa while holding the fork in his long, graceful fingers. The man was reading the papers as he enjoyed the fruit like a typical family man, but at the same time still exuded the elegance of a wealthy young master.
Suddenly, he seemed to have noticed something was up. His long eyelashes fluttered and his dark eyes met Luo Chenxi’s gaze.
Luo Chenxi’s heart instantly started pounding and she quickly shrunk back into the kitchen.
With the little dumpling’s “help”, Luo Chenxi took longer to cook than she expected.
In the end, she still managed to make five dishes with a bowl of soup and served them on the table.
Luo Chenxi gave the little dumpling a look, then she immediately went running up to Mu Yichen’s.
“Daddy, it’s time for dinner!”
Mu Yichen put down the newspaper and walked towards the dining table.
Apart from the strawberry pudding in front of Tang Tang, every other dish on the table was Young Master Mu’s favorite.
The man went deep in thoughts, then swept a glance at the woman sitting across the table. The corners of his lips curled up
“Young Master Mu, you must have been working really hard these days. I’ve specially made these dishes for your nourishment, be sure to dig in!” Luo Chenxi put on an exceptionally sweet and lovely smile.
“Daddy, be sure to eat more!” The little dumpling also chimed in.
Before Mu Yichen could speak, a piece of braised pork was placed into his bowl.
He raised his eyebrows and saw Luo Chenxi staring at him with her charming cat-like eyes filled with looks of anticipation.
Mu Yichen pursed his lips and lowered his head to take a bite.
‘I’ll give her this, this woman’s really good at cooking…’
Luo Chenxi secretly felt happy as she saw the man eating his food in a swift manner.
Mu Yichen seemed like he was pretty satisfied with her cooking. Today’s plan was going very smoothly, the little dumpling and her made a great team!
She picked up bits from every dish and brought them all to Mu Yichen. Then, her gaze fell onto the last dish with the biggest plate of them all.
The sweet and sour fish on the plate looked so vibrant as it gave off a nice fragrance. It was the main dish of the day, one that took her a whole lot of effort to prepare. She already had a taste of her dish, it tasted superb!
Mu Yichen specially asked for this dish before, which meant that it definitely suited his taste for food, so Luo Chenxi had to let him eat more of it.
As Luo Chenxi thought about it, she picked the most tasty looking, biggest slice of meat from the fish belly and put it into Mu Yichen’s bowl.
“Young Master Mu, this sweet and sour fish is your favorite. Why don’t you have a bite?”
Mu Yichen lowered his head to look at the fish in the bowl, then looked at Luo Chenxi with a profound gaze before raising his chopsticks.
At this moment, a childish voice came from beside him, “Daddy…”
The two adults turned their heads and realized that the little dumpling was staring blankly at the fish in Mu Yichen’s bowl with an extremely eager expression.
Luo Chenxi’s heart skipped a beat.
She suddenly remembered that sweet and sour fish was also the little dumpling’s favorite dish!
Now that she had given most parts of the fish to Mu Yichen, the only part left on the plate was the tail full of sharp bones.
Luo Chenxi turned to look at Young Master Mu, then at the little dumpling. She instantly became awkward.
If the bowl was with Luo Chenxi, she would have given the meat to the little dumpling without a second thought, but now, the one with the bowl was Young Master Mu instead…
Mu Yichen went silent for a moment before his thin lips parted. “Your big sister made this for me. If you want some, ask Sister Chen to make ten of these for you tomorrow!”
The little dumpling burst into tears upon hearing the man’s words.
“Daddy bad, Tang Tang hates Daddy! Tang Tang wants big sister’s sweet and sour fish too!”
She pushed her little bowl away and jumped down from the children’s chair before running back to her room.
Luo Chenxi was left dumbfounded, she felt like breaking down mentally at this scene.
What… What was going on?
The little dumpling still had an important part of her role coming up!
Did the little girl actually abandon the stage just because of a few pieces of sweet and sour fish meat?
