"I didn't know how to cook before, but after I stopped working, I started learning, and now I can cook like a pro!"
Qiao Yan nodded as she listened to her praise of her cooking skills, and then decided on her dinner for today.
After returning to the house with Chen Meng, Qiao Yan cleaned up the cold buns on her desk and checked her email.
This time, when a work message came, she simply handled the work in the room.
During the whole process, the sound of the erhu never stopped, and Grandpa Lu was quite energetic.
After finishing work, it was almost half past three. Qiao Yan felt that she could take a nap, so she set the alarm for six o'clock and climbed into bed to rest.
