However, Qiao Nian saw the shoelace knot on the skirt and scoffed.
She then thought about whom the phone number belonged to.
Was it from Ye Lan that exchanged contacts with her last night?
She checked the time and replied to her.
She then put her phone aside and checked on the kid sleeping in the room next door. After that, she went down.
The seafood porridge was on the table, ready for her to eat. Qiao Nian pulled the chair and sat down. Still a bit tired, she felt annoyed.
She picked up the spoon and looked at the boring dish in front of her. She didn’t want to eat it at all.
Ye Wangchuan then walked over and placed a plate of pickles in front of her. A layer of chili oil enveloped the vegetable. It looked appetizing to her.
“Jiang Li didn’t have much in his fridge except this. Guess you have to make do with this. I’ll ask Gu San to buy groceries tomorrow.”
“Alright.”
Qiao Nian was drawn to the pickles when she saw them and didn’t listen to anything he said. She picked up her chopsticks and took one piece.
The vegetable was just seasoned and was crunchy. The fragrance from the chili oil filled her mouth, arousing her appetite.
She hadn’t eaten anything since lunch. Because she was focused on the kid’s operation, she only felt hungry after her nap.
She wasn’t a picky eater. In fact, she would eat anything so long it was flavorful. She was really easy to raise as a child.
Even though it wasn’t an expensive dish, it was perfect for Qiao Nian. Hence, she started to eat the porridge with the pickles.
The seafood porridge was at the perfect temperature. She slowly savored the dishes. Anyone watching her eat would become hungry too.
“Slow down, there’s still more.” Ye Wangchuan wasn’t eating. He sat down and watched her eat lovingly.
Quickly finishing it, she handed him the empty bowl and said, “Another one, please.”
…
The rich ladies from Beijing would pay a lot of attention to how they looked when eating. Regardless of how hungry they were, they would only eat very little food in public.
It was the first time Ye Wangchuan saw a girl eating in such a manner.
But he felt satisfied seeing how much she enjoyed his cooking. He even wanted to eat with her.
He got another bowl of porridge for her immediately.
Qiao Nian didn’t have a big appetite. It was just that she had been starving for so long that she was having gastric issues.
She slowed down her eating speed after gobbling up the first bowl.
Even though she was still focused on eating, you could tell that she was almost full from the speed she was eating.
Jiang Li didn’t return to his room to rest for the night and was just sitting in the living room. He looked at Qiao Nian with his almond-shaped eyes, then at Ye Wangchuan.
He thought about what he discovered just now. He couldn’t take it anymore and said something, breaking the silence.
“Erm, Nian Nian, when did you allow Master Wang to take a photo of you?”
Even though he was her relative, he didn’t have a photo of her. How could Master Wang have a photo of her, then? He wasn’t jealous. He wasn’t complaining. He wasn’t jealous at all. He just asked because he cared about his sister…
Jiang Li took a deep breath. However, he couldn’t shake off his jealousness. He then looked at both of them.
They were a match made in heaven.
Everyone said that a girl would leave the family when she got older. But he didn’t expect it to happen this quickly!
