"Very seriously."

Shi Heng nodded. "I know it might be hard for you to believe what I'm saying all of a sudden, but please give me a chance to prove that I'm sincere."

Chen Fang wiped her eyes and suddenly smiled, "You child... Nian Nian has had a hard life since she was a child. I've always been worried that she wouldn't meet a good person. If you can really do what you say..."

"I will definitely do it." Shi Heng promised firmly.

At this time, Su Niannian poked her head in from outside, "Mom, I've sorted out the accounts... What are you talking about?"

She was keenly aware of the strange atmosphere in the kitchen.

"Nothing," Chen Fang said in a much more relaxed tone, "Mr. Shi and I were just chatting casually."

Su Niannian looked at Shi Heng doubtfully, and he smiled at her gently.

Shi Heng suddenly rolled up his sleeves and said, "How about I make dinner tonight? Let Auntie have a rest."

Chen Fang looked at him in surprise, "Can you cook?"

"I know a little bit." Shi Heng said modestly, "I learned it when I was studying abroad."

Chen Fang gave up her seat doubtfully, "Then...then you try it?"

Shi Heng put on his apron with quick movements and began to prepare the ingredients.

Chen Fang stood aside, watching his skillful knife skills and orderly movements, with admiration flashing in her eyes.

"Auntie, where do you keep your soy sauce?" Shi Heng asked.

"In the second cabinet on the left." Chen Fang replied, and couldn't help asking, "Do you really cook often?"

Shi Heng replied while stirring the food in the wok, "Well, my father taught me since I was a child that a man should be able to take care of himself. Later, I was too busy starting my own business, so I did less, but the basic skills are still there."

In less than an hour, four dishes and a soup were on the table.

At this time, the two children also woke up, rubbed their eyes and walked into the restaurant.

"Wow! It smells so good!" Su Qian stood on tiptoe to see the dishes on the table.

Su Mo climbed onto the chair directly, "Mom, I'm hungry."

Just then, Su Huaishan came back from the clinic. As soon as he entered, he smelled the fragrance. "What delicious food are you making today?"

Chen Fang said, "Mr. Shi cooked it."

Su Huaishan said in surprise: "Young man, can you cook?"

Shi Heng smiled modestly, "Hello uncle, I just made a few home-cooked dishes, I wonder if they suit your taste."

Everyone sat down.

Su Qian couldn't wait to grab a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. After taking a bite, her eyes widened. "It's delicious! It's even better than grandma's!"

"Qianqian!" Su Niannian scolded softly, but she also tasted it and was stunned.

Why does this taste so similar to her favorite taste?

This taste memory made her heart tremble, as if something important was about to come out, but she couldn't grasp it.

Chen Fang tasted the steamed fish and nodded repeatedly, "The cooking time is really good. The fish is tender and fresh."

Su Huaishan picked up a piece of greens with chopsticks and nodded in praise, "You can make stir-fried greens so delicious? You are quite good at it, young man."

Shi Heng smiled and picked up some food for each of the two children, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

After the meal, Shi Heng took the initiative to help clean up the dishes.

Before leaving, Chen Fang warmly saw him to the door and said, "Come often when you have time."

"Of course, Auntie." Shi Heng said goodbye politely.

After watching Shi Heng's car leave, Su Niannian just stepped into the house and saw her parents sitting in the living room waiting for her.

"Niannian, come and sit here." Su Huaishan patted the sofa beside him.

Chen Fang couldn't wait to grab her daughter's hand, "Niannian, do you know what Shi Heng just said to us? He's the boss of Xiangyue Tiancheng!"

"Mom, I already know this." Su Niannian answered softly.

"Then do you know what he said?" Chen Fang's voice was trembling with excitement. "He said that if he was with you, he could give up his own children! He also said that he would treat Su Mo and Su Qian as his own children!"

Su Niannian's hand unconsciously covered her mouth, and her eyes instantly turned red, "He...he really said that?"

"It's absolutely true!" Chen Fang held her daughter's hand tightly. "Mom can see that this child is sincere."

Su Niannian was suddenly stunned, "So, he opened a shop next door..."

"Just to see you every day!" Chen Fang's eyes sparkled. "This kid really puts a lot of thought into it."

Su Huaishan was relatively calm. He coughed lightly and said, "Niannian, your mother and I have discussed it and think you can get along with Shi Heng first. But..."

He paused and said, "When Li Xiuyuan comes back, you have to explain everything to him clearly and don't delay him."

"Dad, I understand." Su Niannian lowered her head, "I will definitely explain it to Dr. Li."

Chen Fang patted her daughter's shoulder gently. "Shi Heng is a good-looking boy with a great career. But most importantly, he treats you and the children with sincerity. You must cherish him."

After the two children fell asleep, Su Niannian returned to her bedroom.

He picked up his phone and hesitantly opened Shi Heng’s WeChat dialog box.

Delete and modify several times:

"The food today is delicious, thank you."

No, that's too polite.

“The kids love your cooking.”

Still too unfamiliar.

She threw her phone onto the pillow in frustration and pulled the quilt over her head.

Just then, the phone suddenly vibrated.

I'm in the car.

She was stunned, as she had seen his car drive away from the alley with her own eyes a few hours ago.

Why did you turn back again?

Su Niannian threw back the quilt, grabbed her coat and put it on, then tiptoed out of the house.

It was late at night and the streets were deserted.

Under the dim street lights, the familiar black car was parked quietly on the opposite street.
