Chapter 5: Luo Xingye Stayed Overnight

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Back at my cousin’s house, I put Chuyi on the sofa and went straight to the kitchen. I opened the refrigerator and took out some spinach, using the juicer to make some noodles.

The water was boiling and the green bean noodles were thrown into the pot. I took out two packets of pickled vegetables and placed them on a plate.

Luo Xingye was playing a shooting game with Chuyi.

Chuyi held his gun and shouted. Luo Xingye was ‘unfortunately’ shot and fell to the carpet.

The two of them had a lot of fun.

Chuyi laughed happily and ran to me, shouting, “Mom, I won!” He hadn’t been this happy in a long time. When he was at home in the past, his father had never played with him. He would always say, “I’m so busy, where would I find the time to play with you?”

“Good, good, you’re the best!” I praised him, put the cooked noodles in a bowl, and dripped sesame oil and vinegar on it, “Come and eat, aren’t you hungry?”

Luo Xingye walked over slowly and sniffed, “Oh, the color, smell, and taste are all here, it should be delicious.”

Of course, after all, this is the only delicacy I can bring out.

I felt sleepy and yawned, “You two eat slowly, I’ll take a nap on the sofa.”

I sat cross-legged on the sofa and leaned on the pillow.

I still lying on that luxurious bed, the mattress was thick and elastic.

It was so comfortable!

I turned over and continued to sleep. In my daze, I felt like someone was covering me with a blanket.

It must be a kind nanny!

I didn’t sleep well and always kicked the quilt. Auntie had covered me countless times, but when she saw me, she would definitely nag me for a while.

My ear felt itchy, as if hot air was coming out of the nostrils. Then, someone kissed him on the cheek.

I smiled, but my eyes were still closed as I waved, “Mommy will sleep for a while, just a little while…”

As expected, there was peace and quiet around my ears. Chuyi was so sensible.

I was woken up by the smell of the kitchen. It smells so good! I wonder what delicious food Auntie will make today.

After lying down for a while, my stomach started to growl. I opened my eyes unwillingly. No, where was this?

After a while, I realized that I’m at my cousin’s house!

I sat up and rubbed my eyes.

The sun was already shining brightly outside the window, and I had actually spent the entire night on the sofa!

The fragrance filled the room. Who was cooking in the kitchen? Could it be that my cousin had returned? I was pleasantly surprised, “Hey, I won’t have to worry about cooking anymore!”

I ran to the kitchen barefooted, wanting to give my cousin a big hug, “Cousin, you’re finally back!”

The refrigerator door was open, covering the upper half of “cousin’s” body. I only saw that she was wearing an apron, but I didn’t know what she was holding inside.

Milk was boiling on the stove, and the plates on the dining table were filled with fried eggs and ham. It was a peaceful scene.

I was so touched that I sniffed. Whoever marries a good wife and mother like my cousin in the future would be so blessed!

The refrigerator door slammed shut. I raised my head and was instantly petrified, “Ah???”

Luo! Xing! Ye!

He leaned against the refrigerator door, revealing his eight perfect teeth, and smiled, “Good morning, Big Sis!”

My expression was dull, but my brain was spinning rapidly. Why was he here?

The red and white plaid apron was really suitable for him, except that it was a little short. That’s right. With his exquisite face, even if he were to wear a gunny sack, he would probably be able to attract fashion trends.

“You…?”

As my memory gradually returned, I recalled that he sent us back last night and said that he was hungry and wanted to eat spinach noodles for the first day of Chinese New Year.

After I helped them cook the noodles, I… I actually fell asleep!

Did Luo Xingye stay the night?

I knocked my head in frustration. I was really stupid, I could actually sleep until dawn when a strange man was at home. No wonder that Lang guy plotted against me!

He seemed to have seen through my thoughts and smiled, “I was worried that Chuyi’s condition would relapse, so I stayed. You won’t blame me, right?”

I can only be grateful to you when you put it that way. I smacked my lips and said, “Yeah, I won’t…”

She suddenly remembered who had covered her with the blanket. Also, where were the breathing and kissing beside her ear? If it wasn’t a dream, was it Chuyi or him?

My face suddenly turned red.

Luo Xingye ignored me. He deftly poured the milk, turned off the gas stove, served the cut fruits, and took out the egg tarts from the oven, setting up a table of delicious food.

Chuyi ran into the dining room, his face still wet with water.

“Mom, I slept on my own last night, am I good?” He raised his little face, waiting for my praise.

My heart skipped a beat, “You slept on your own? Why didn’t you wake mom up?”

“Uncle Luo said not to disturb Mommy while she’s sleeping.” Chuyi grabbed an egg tart and stuffed it into his mouth, flattering him with a smile, “Uncle’s cooking skills are great!”

Luo Xingye smiled sneakily, “How’s it compared to your mother’s cooking?” He asked.

This question made Chuyi unable to answer.

Luo Xingye still wants to sow discord between us, mother and son? I chuckled to myself. That was because he didn’t understand Chuyi’s character.

Sure enough, Chuyi pretended not to hear him and changed the topic, “Uncle, I want to go to the amusement park!”

“Chuyi!” I chided him, “Uncle is very busy.”

If he was willing to help, the most important thing he should do was to go all out in the lawsuit.

Unfortunately, he’s most likely a Lackey of that Lang guy, so I’d better not hope for that.

Why don’t I look for a junior lawyer to help me? I turned to the bathroom to wash up, my mind filled with the problem of lawyer fees.

When I returned to the dining room, I heard him discussing something with Chuyi.

“A pirate ship!”

“The merry-go-round!”

“Bumper karts!”

…

“Mom, let’s go to the amusement park later. Uncle promised me!” Chuyi smiled at me proudly.

What?

Did Luo Xingye agree to go to the amusement park?

I simply couldn’t believe it as I muttered in my heart. Shouldn’t a famous lawyers be very busy?

He was indeed very busy. He had just taken a sip of milk when the call came in.

From the tone of his voice, he seemed to be his assistant, who reported a lot of things to him and Luo Xingye quietly gave instructions on how to do it.

In the end, he added, “I’ll send you my location in a while, help me send over today’s work. Thank you for your hard work.”

“To where?” I couldn’t help but ask.

“An amusement park.” He said unhurriedly.

No way?

He was going to work in the amusement park?

The Lang guy must have paid him a lot, otherwise why would he work so hard? He’s keeping an eye on us, mother and son!

I laughed dryly, “I dare not trouble you, Lawyer. If your company’s boss finds out about this, he might fire you. ”

His body was here, but his heart was somewhere else. He made money behind their back, which was really embarrassing for the famous firm.

Luo Xingye seemed to have choked on his fried egg. He gulped down two mouthfuls of milk and only recovered after a long time, “Uh, about this, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Oh?

Was he ridding on that Lang guy’s coattails so firmly?

“Why?” I asked him.

Hmph, I just want him to be embarrassed.

As expected, he had a troubled expression and stammered, not willing to say.

I fiercely glared at him and gritted my teeth, “Speak!”

After a long while, he finally made up his mind, “Because, I, I am the boss.”

What?
