While eating the brown sugar eggs, she secretly glanced at Xiao Lang who was busy in the kitchen.
He was wearing a simple army green shirt, with his sleeves rolled up to reveal his muscular arms, and was concentrating on cooking noodles. The sunlight shone on his profile, casting a faint halo on it, making him look particularly charming.
"What are you looking at? You look so engrossed." Xiao Lang came over with a bowl of steaming noodles, and asked with a smile when he saw her staring at him.
Chen Xiaoru was caught by him and lowered her head a little embarrassedly, muttering softly, "I didn't see anything."
Xiao Lang placed the noodles in front of her, sat down opposite her, raised his eyebrows, and teased her deliberately: "You really didn't see anything? Why do I feel like someone is secretly admiring my beauty?"
Chen Xiaoru couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard that. She raised her head and rolled her eyes at him: "You're so beautiful! Who appreciates you? You're a narcissist!"
"Hehe, if you don't admire me, do you admire others?" Xiao Lang said with a grin, with a barely perceptible hint of jealousy in his tone.
Chen Xiaoru looked at his childish appearance, and her heart softened. She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a noodle and put it in her mouth, mumbling: "Delicious, the noodles you made are really delicious."
"That's right, don't you see who did it?" Xiao Lang raised his eyebrows proudly, and then asked with concern: "Eat slowly, be careful of the burn. By the way, does it still hurt? Do you want me to buy some medicine?"
Chen Xiaoru blushed with shame and glared at him: "Don't go, you've been sleeping in the study these days, hum..."
When Xiao Lang heard that, he was so embarrassed. He had just eaten meat and was now banished to the cold palace. So he immediately said in a serious manner, "Wife, I was wrong."
"Hmph." Chen Xiaoru lowered her head and ate her noodles. She was really hungry. This guy was too much of a fuss.
"Knock knock knock" He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
I was stunned when I heard the knock on the door. Who would come so early in the morning?
"Xiao Ru, you eat first, I'll go take a look." Xiao Lang said as he stood up and walked towards the door.
When Xiao Lang opened the door, he saw Zhu Daqiang and was surprised. He asked, "Political Commissar Zhu, why are you here? Please come in!"
Zhu Daqiang walked in with a smile and said, "Captain Xiao, I hope I didn't disturb your rest."
"No, no, Xiaoru and I are having breakfast. Have you eaten yet? How about we eat together?"
Xiao Lang greeted him warmly, but he was wondering in his heart, Zhu Daqiang seldom came to his house, so what was he up to today?
"No, no, I've eaten." Zhu Daqiang waved his hand, but his eyes scanned the room, as if looking for something.
"Oh, then please sit down. I'll get you a glass of water." Xiao Lang said as he was about to go to the kitchen.
"Oh, no need to bother, no need to bother."
Zhu Daqiang quickly waved his hand to stop Xiao Lang from pouring water. He rubbed his hands and stood a little awkwardly in the middle of the living room, his eyes sweeping over the steaming brown sugar eggs and noodles on the dining table.
He looked at Chen Xiaoru standing behind Xiao Lang, cleared his throat, and said straight to the point:
"Captain Xiao, I came here today specifically to apologize to you on behalf of my Yin Yin."
Zhu Daqiang said this with a look of apology on his face and his tone became particularly sincere.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't realize this kid was so ignorant before, always pestering you and causing you trouble.
I also heard about what happened yesterday. She actually came to my house to cause trouble for Comrade Xiaoru. This is simply nonsense! I have already severely criticized her and asked her to reflect on her mistakes at home and deeply understand her mistakes.
When Xiao Lang heard what Zhu Daqiang said, he couldn't help but be stunned. He and Chen Xiaoru exchanged glances, both a little surprised.
They hadn't expected Zhu Daqiang to personally come and apologize, and his attitude was so sincere. After all, Zhu Daqiang was a political commissar, usually very busy with work, and the fact that he personally came to apologize for his daughter's matter showed how much he valued it.
"Political Commissar Zhu, you are too polite. Actually, this matter..." Xiao Lang was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond. After all, the other party was a leader and his attitude was so humble.
Chen Xiaoru put down her chopsticks, stood up, and walked over to Xiao Lang. She smiled politely at Zhu Daqiang and said softly, "Political Commissar Zhu, don't say that. It's actually nothing serious. Comrade Yinyin may just be young and impulsive and confused for a moment."
She paused and added, "Besides, there may have been some misunderstanding about what happened yesterday."
After hearing what Chen Xiaoru said, Zhu Daqiang felt even more guilty. He waved his hands repeatedly, sighed, and said:
"What misunderstanding? I've spoiled Yinyin. She's always wanted to get whatever she wants. She's arrogant and willful. This time, she's completely at fault. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."
As he spoke, he smiled apologetically at Chen Xiaoru, "Comrade Xiaoru, please be magnanimous and don't bother with her."
Seeing Zhu Daqiang's sincere attitude, Xiao Lang knew that he was really aware of the seriousness of the problem. He quickly stepped forward, helped Zhu Daqiang sit down, and said with a smile:
"Commissar Zhu, you're too serious. It's better to talk things out. Besides, we don't take this matter to heart. We are very grateful that you came. Besides, I just want to live a good life with my wife now."
Seeing Xiao Lang's resolute attitude, Zhu Daqiang knew that it was useless to say more, so he could only smile awkwardly: "Yes, yes, Captain Xiao is right, living a good life is the most important thing. Well, I won't bother you anymore, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
As he said this, he stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he did not forget to look at Chen Xiaoru meaningfully. Xiao Lang sent Zhu Daqiang to the door. When he came back, Chen Xiaoru was quietly cleaning up the dishes. "What's wrong? Are you still angry?"
