Chu Wanfang stood there stunned for a moment, then walked up to Shen Qiaoyue and asked, "What's going on between you two?"

"Nothing happened," Shen Qiaoyue said seriously.

Chu Wanfang pinched Shen Qiaoyue's ear, while keeping an eye on the kitchen, afraid that Lu Chen would come out.

"Ouch, Mom!" Shen Qiaoyue was so used to having her ear pulled, she couldn't react for a moment and just felt her ear hurt.

"Shen Qiaoyue, what are you trying to do? Lu Chen isn't good enough to you, what other trouble are you going to cause?" Chu Wanfang had only heard Shen Qiaoyue's domineering voice all night. "Have you always been bullying Lu Chen like this?"

"Mom...Mom!" Shen Qiaoyue cried out as her ear was being pulled, the pain intensifying. "Mom, I didn't argue, let go, it hurts..."

When Chu Wanfang saw Lu Chen about to come out, she immediately let go of Shen Qiaoyue's ear and whispered a warning: "You have a child. It's okay to argue, but please don't be willful and say hurtful things, understand?"

Chu Wanfang knew her daughter too well; she was always sharp-tongued. Sometimes, when she encountered strong-willed people, if they were a bit talkative, Chen Qiaoyue would want to go up and yell at them.

Shen Qiaoyue felt very wronged. Why didn't her mother help her? Why did she have to speak up for Lu Chen?

"Mom, come out and wash up for breakfast. I've already made it." Lu Chen brought out a large bowl of porridge.

When Chu Wanfang heard that Lu Chen had prepared breakfast for her, she replied with a smile, "Okay, I'll be right there."

Chu Wanfang gave Shen Qiaoyue a warning look before going to wash up.

Shen Qiaoyue was furious and glared at Lu Chen.

"Is it too hot? Let me blow on it for you." After putting the porridge down, Lu Chen sat down, took Shen Qiaoyue's porridge, and stirred it back and forth to dissipate the heat from the bottom of the porridge.

He had anger but couldn't vent it.

Shen Qiaoyue instructed, "After you finish eating, take the children to the daycare. If you stay at home, let your aunt do less work."

"Yes, I know." Lu Chen was well aware that housework definitely needed to be shared.
