She met his eyes and turned her face away, thinking about the dining table. Then, she sat down.
“Eat!”
She picked off the meat on the drumstick bit by bit and put it into his bowl, so that it would be convenient for him to eat.
Because of the injury on his arm, if it was usual, he would just take a drumstick and eat it.
After cleaning up the pieces, Xiang Yi sat down opposite the mother and son.
“Mommy, aren’t you and Daddy going to eat?”
Seeing that the two adults were not eating, the little guy blinked his big eyes and could not help but ask.
His son’s voice made both of them pause.
In order to give herself an excuse, shi nuannuan casually said, “The dishes are cold. Mommy doesn’t want to eat.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the man opposite her suddenly stood up. “I’ll go heat them up.”
With that, he picked up the two plates of dishes on the table and walked to the kitchen.
Looking at his back as he walked into the kitchen, Shi Nuannuan was a little stunned.
She only said that to find an excuse..
Listening to the sounds of hot dishes coming from the kitchen, Shi Nuannuan’s thoughts flew back to three years ago.
“Mommy, you’re smiling again…”
Noticing the smile on the corner of her mouth, Xiang Jinghan couldn’t help but open his mouth again.
Shi Nuannuan looked down at her son, then stuffed a piece of chicken leg into his mouth. “Eat, you talk so much!”
The little guy pouted and happily chewed the meat in his mouth.
After a while, the dishes were ready. Xiang Yi even scooped a bowl of rice for her and placed it in front of her.
Looking at the bowl of white rice, she did not speak for a long time.
She looked up at the man opposite her. He was clearly the one who had done something wrong, but she was the one who avoided his gaze every time. It was as if she was the one who was wrong. Why?
She secretly bit her lower lip and looked at the food in front of her. She was indeed hungry.
“Mommy, eat…”the little guy urged.
“I’m not hungry.”He was stubborn.
“But if you don’t eat, Daddy won’t eat either!”The little guy pouted.
Shi Nuannuan turned her head and glanced at the man opposite her. He really didn’t eat.
This little guy had been with her for three years. Now, he only knew his father for a few days, and he was so concerned about his food?
“I didn’t ask him not to eat!”She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes.
“But if you don’t eat, Daddy doesn’t dare to eat…”Xiang Jinghan couldn’t help but speak again. He remembered what his Daddy said. When Mommy said ‘No’, he had to say ‘yes’!
Hearing this, Shi Nuannuan looked at the man in front of her again.
What did he want?
“Mommy, hurry up and eat. Don’t delay my meal!”
She frowned. who was this little thing helping?
But..
Was it really because she didn’t eat that he didn’t move his chopsticks?
Thinking of this, she suddenly picked up the bowl and chopsticks.
Just as she picked it up, the man opposite her also picked it up.
She paused, looked up at him, and then went to pick up the food. He followed suit.
She wanted to speak, but she seemed to disdain talking to him.
The food in her mouth tasted the same as it did three years ago.
On closer inspection, it seemed that there was no ginger in every dish, because she didn’t like it.
The lunch didn’t end until two o’clock.
Shi Nuannuan didn’t know how the meal ended. It wasn’t until Xiang Jinghan fell asleep that she carried him to the living room and put him on the sofa.
“Put him on the bed.”
