“But…” She wanted to say that she would be late after dinner, but before she could say anything, he glared at her coldly. She could only nod and do as he said.
The takeout arrived very quickly. Chi Xia went to the kitchen and rummaged through the cabinet. She took out a few plates and poured the food out before placing it on the dining table.
As they ate, the atmosphere became awkward. Chi Xia found a topic to talk about and asked, “”Do you not stay here often? The kitchen is empty, and there’s nothing in the fridge.”
Su Chen replied with an ” Mm. ” He looked at Chi Xia calmly. ” If you feel that you’re missing anything, you can help me make up for it. After you’re done, you can ask me for reimbursement. ”
“No, it’s quite good.” He treated her like a nanny and even asked her to help him with the household items.
After Chi Xia said that, Su Chen glared at her coldly and she quickly changed her words, “”You don’t live here often, and the kitchen doesn’t cook. It’s useless to buy those things.”
“How do you know I don’t stay here often?” Su Chen was a little unhappy because of her rejection. He thought about it and said, ‘”‘ I’ll come over to sleep when I have social events. If I don’t, I’ll go home for dinner. I live here four or five days a week. If I can cook here, I won’t go home. ‘
“Not going home? Don’t you like living with your parents?”
Chi Xia asked casually and saw the man’s expression turn cold. She didn’t know what she said wrong. Then, she heard Su Chen say coldly, “”My dad passed away.”
“I’m sorry.” Chi Xia lowered her head and apologized. ” What about your mother? ” she asked.
“She remarried.” Su Chen said casually, ” So, other than the servants, I’m the only one at home. ‘
Chi Xia didn’t know about Su Chen’s private affairs. She thought that he was a young master who was high and mighty outside and everything was under his control.
Presumably, if he went home alone, he would rather come back here. The house was smaller, and his heart was not as empty.
After some thought, Chi Xia raised her head and smiled at Su Chen. ” Then I’ll help you make up for the things you’re missing when I’m free. If you don’t want to go home in the future, you can ask your servant to cook for you. It’ll be more convenient that way.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes. A certain emotion flashed through his heart, so fast that he couldn’t catch it.
He put down his chopsticks and stared at the smile on her face. His tone was so confident. ” You’re my girlfriend. Shouldn’t you be the one cooking and taking care of me? ”
Do you think I’m a free nanny?”
“If I spend money to hire a nanny like you, wouldn’t that be a bad deal?”
Chi Xia was speechless.
She was the one at a disadvantage, alright?
After dinner, Chi Xia sat on the sofa and ate some fruit when the landline phone rang. Su Chen wasn’t in the living room, so she heard the man shout, “”Answer the phone.”
Chi Xia picked up the call and answered with a ” Hello “. She felt the other end of the line quiet for a while before asking, “”l’m looking for Chen Chen. You are?”
It was a woman’s voice. Chi Xia thought about it and replied, “”l’m the nanny. It’s not convenient for Mr. Smith to answer the phone now.”
“I’m her mother. Help me tell him to come home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.”
After hanging up, Chi Xia turned around and saw Su Chen standing behind her. She was shocked.
Su Chen raised his eyebrows. ” It seems like you’re very familiar with the role of a nanny. ‘
Chi Xia smiled awkwardly. ” Your mother called just now and asked you to come home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
She guessed that this man did not want to go to his stepfather’s place to celebrate..
