Gu Momo watched with a smile as the food in her bowl kept piling up, and could only nod again and again.
But when she turned her head, she found Li Zhanting looking at her expectantly, so she picked up her chopsticks and took a bite.
How does it taste?
"Delicious!" A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Momo's eyes. The chicken was tender and smooth, and the combination of millet peppers and lemon made it tangy and delicious, which was really appetizing!
After receiving Gu Momo's affirmation, Li Zhanting finally stopped looking tense and started to keep putting food on her plate.
They kept switching back and forth between picking up food, eating food, picking up food, and eating food.
Gu Wanrou's situation wasn't much better; she drank three bowls of that lotus root and pig's trotter soup.
"I stewed this pig's trotter until it's very tender. Let me serve you another bowl." At this moment, Li Zhanfeng had transformed into a waiter. As soon as Gu Wanrou had a bowl of food, he would immediately start stuffing it into her bowl.
However, although Li Zhanfeng and Li Zhanting were very enthusiastic about serving food, they would never serve their wives any food that the other had made. In this respect, their tacit understanding was a little too much.
Li Zhanfeng took out an empty plate, put on gloves, and began to peel shrimp for Gu Wanrou: "These boiled shrimp are air-freighted from the sea market, they are very fresh, let me peel some for you."
Seeing this, Li Zhanting was naturally not to be outdone. "This crayfish is very flavorful. I know you don't like garlic flavor, so I made it spicy. I'll peel it for you."
Gu Momo hadn't had a good appetite lately, but she didn't want Li Zhanting to have worked so hard to cook so many dishes for nothing, so she tried to taste a little of each one. In the end, she couldn't eat anymore and could only look to her daughter for help.
Li Qingling immediately understood, coughed lightly, and looked at Li Zhanting with a pitiful expression, saying, "Daddy, why aren't you taking care of Ling'er? Ling'er also wants to eat crayfish that Daddy peels himself~"
Li Zhanting then realized that he had been serving food to Gu Momo since the meal was served and had forgotten to take care of the children. So he immediately switched to the task of peeling crayfish for the children.
Seeing this, Li Jiujiu immediately started to act coquettishly, asking Li Zhanfeng to peel shrimp for her.
Gu Momo and Gu Wanrou exchanged a glance and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After dinner, Gu Wanrou lay on the bed, clutching her chest in discomfort, "Ugh... Momo, I feel like I'm about to burst from overeating."
“Me too…” Gu Momo slumped onto the sofa and said weakly.
She never imagined in her life that eating would be such a tiring thing.
"How long are they going to keep competing like this? Are they going to keep going until they've fattened us up to 180 pounds?"
No sooner had Gu Wanrou finished speaking than there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Aunt Rong came in carrying two plates of fruit salad mixed with yogurt, her eyes crinkling with a smile. "Miss Momo, Miss Wanrou," she said, "this yogurt fruit salad was specially sent over by Master Ting and Master Feng. They said you two ate a bit too much today and might have trouble digesting it tonight, so some yogurt and fruit would be better. The dark green plate was prepared by Master Ting; it's full of Miss Momo's favorites: mango, watermelon, and crisp peaches. This red plate was prepared by Master Feng; it's all Miss Wanrou's favorites: kiwi, mangosteen, bananas..."
"Stop, stop, Aunt Rong... Look at us, do we look like we can still eat fruit?" Gu Wanrou looked up and stopped her.
Gu Momo nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Aunt Rong couldn't help but laugh. She was a shrewd person and naturally saw that the two men were secretly competing, but it was just a pity for Miss Momo and Miss Wanrou.
"Yes, yes, I understand. I'll take it right away."
"Thank you so much, Aunt Rong." Gu Momo was moved to tears.
After Aunt Rong left, Gu Wanrou lay sprawled on the bed, crying out in despair, "When will this ever end!"
The competition between Li Zhanting and Li Zhanfeng is far from over, and even Mo Feng has been drawn into the ranks of those gathering information.
“Master Ting, based on Master Feng’s recent schedule, I found out that he will be taking Miss Wanrou to a couples’ variety show called ‘Best Partners’ on the night of the 24th, which is Christmas Eve.”
"A variety show?" Li Zhanting thought of the couple-themed show that Wanrou and Li Zhanfeng had appeared together before, which had earned Wanrou a lot of fans. Most importantly, there were rumors about them everywhere online. Could it be that Li Zhanfeng was planning to confess his feelings to Wanrou on the variety show?
After a calm analysis, Li Zhanting concluded that appearing on the show was just a pretext, and the real purpose was to show off their affection.
"Mo Feng, do you think it's romantic to propose publicly on a TV show?"
Mo Feng frowned in embarrassment. As a man, he really couldn't fathom what this woman was thinking.
However, given the number of Li Zhanfeng's fans, a public proposal would definitely cause a huge uproar. The entire capital and even the whole world would probably be discussing Li Zhanfeng and Miss Wanrou's relationship. To say it wouldn't be romantic or sensational would be a lie.
“I think… this kind of surprise is still very romantic for girls!” Mo Feng answered very reasonably.
Upon hearing this, Li Zhanting clenched his fist on the table. Driven by his competitive spirit, he had other ideas in mind. "In that case, I can't afford to lose to him!"
The next day, Li Qingling and Gu Jingxing got up early and went downstairs in a daze, only to find that there were less than half as many maids cleaning the living room as usual.
"Young Miss, Young Master, you're up? The kitchen is making porridge, it'll be ready soon, I'll bring it up for you in a bit, please have a seat." The maid, Mumu, greeted them with a smile.
