"Okay, Ruoming. I'll help you contact them later." Seeing that Xia Ruoming didn't look particularly anxious, Xiao Qinghan sat down again, sipping milk tea and eating the osmanthus cake that Xia Ruoming had just made.

Now it is almost September and some osmanthus flowers are in full bloom. It is a good time to eat osmanthus cake.

"Thank you very much, Sister Qinghan~" Xia Ruoming gave Xiao Qinghan a hug. When the softness of her chest touched Xiao Qinghan's body, Xiao Qinghan's face felt slightly hot.

"Okay, okay, if there's nothing else, just go and continue with your work." Feeling his cheeks getting hot, Xiao Qinghan pushed Xia Ruoming away. After all, Chu Suhe was still here. If he continued to hug her, Xiao Qinghan felt that he would not be able to control his feelings. If he pushed Xia Ruoming down in front of Chu Suhe, it would become a Shura scene.

"Thank you, Sister Qinghan~ I'll treat you to the fried chicken wings I made when you get back~"

"Go away, you never do anything special every day, and yet you treat me to fried chicken wings. You're so disrespectful. Just don't make me come back late at night to make you a midnight snack." Xiao Qinghan shook his head and sighed. Xia Ruoming hadn't cooked in the kitchen for the past few days, which obviously didn't make her look virtuous. If she cooked, she would probably blow up the kitchen, leaving him to clean up the mess.

"Sister Qinghan, don't underestimate me. My fried chicken wings are delicious. I'll let you enjoy them when you come back." Xia Ruoming looked at Xiao Qinghan's unbelieving eyes and acted unconvinced. Others could say that her cooking was average, but they couldn't say that her fried chicken wings were not delicious! Her fried chicken wings were better than those of M Ji!

"Okay~ Enjoy your meal, and go and do your own thing." Xiao Qinghan's eyes were full of helplessness.

After Xia Ruoming made a heart sign to Xiao Qinghan, she ran back to the restaurant and stayed with Chu Suhe.

Xiao Qinghan watched Xia Ruoming leave quietly, with extremely complicated emotions in his eyes.

…

…

"Su Su, why don't you stay at my house during the military training these days?" Xia Ruoming suddenly spoke as she looked at Chu Suhe, who was leaning back in the chair with a satisfied look on her face.

"Ah...ah? Why, Ruoming?" Chu Suhe knew that if she lived in Xia Ruoming's house, her three meals a day would definitely be taken care of by Xia Ruoming. She really didn't want to be taken care of by Xia Ruoming, because she felt that she would never be able to repay her no matter what she did...

Xia Ruoming narrowed her eyes slightly. The moment she heard Chu Suhe's tone, she knew what Chu Suhe was thinking. She swallowed back the words she wanted to say and replaced them with another statement.

"Well, of course I'm not living here for free. I definitely have something I want Susu to help me with. I wonder if you're willing to help me~" Xia Ruoming said as she sat next to Chu Suhe, holding Chu Suhe's hand and interlocking their fingers, which made Chu Suhe feel very embarrassed.

"What does Xia Ruoming want me to help you with... I don't know if I can do it..." Chu Suhe seemed a little hesitant. She really wanted to help Xia Ruoming, but every time Xia Ruoming did something, it seemed like something big. She had no confidence in herself at all. She wanted to help but was afraid that she would mess it up, so she was always hesitant.

"Susu, of course you can do it." Xia Ruoming's words were full of trust in Chu Suhe, and even seemed to be cheering her on.

"If Ruoming thinks so... then, just give me your orders..." Chu Suhe nodded and agreed to Xia Ruoming. Xia Ruoming, who was always looking for opportunities to "cheat" Chu Suhe, also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Chu Suhe stayed here, she could keep an eye on Chu Suhe every day and make sure Chu Suhe had good food.

"Really? Susu, you are not allowed to regret it?" Xia Ruoming said with a smile.

Looking at the smile on Xia Ruoming's face that looked like a conspiracy had succeeded, Chu Suhe actually felt a little scared, but she still didn't change her mind.

"Well... Ruoming, I won't regret it..."

When Xia Ruoming heard Chu Suhe's answer, a bad idea suddenly came to her mind. She told Chu Suhe that what she needed her help with was participating in a sweet little event that only required saying "I do".

But after thinking it over carefully, Xia Ruoming gave up this slightly naughty idea.

"Because I'm too lazy and don't have much time to cook or clean every day, Susu can live here and help me with Sister Qinghan to put things away and clean the room every day. How about that?" Xia Ruoming snapped her fingers and looked at Chu Suhe with a smile, "Of course, I will give Susu every penny of my daily wages."

"Eh...?" Chu Suhe was stunned when she heard Xia Ruoming's words. She didn't expect Xia Ruoming to make such a request. Even if Xia Ruoming didn't say such words, she would take the initiative to help in the house.

"No way? Susu?" Xia Ruoming tilted her head and looked into Chu Suhe's eyes without blinking. After a few seconds, Chu Suhe looked away with a flushed face.

"No...it's okay, but I don't need any money. I live in Ruomeng's house, so it's my duty to help..." Chu Suhe replied in a low voice.

"That won't do... If I let Susu run around without paying anything, my heart will ache. In that case, I can only stop Susu from working and hire a nanny. If I hire a nanny, it might cost six or seven thousand a month..."

Before Xia Ruoming could finish her words, she was interrupted by Chu Suhe.

"Okay then, I'll just take it..." Although she didn't know whether what Xia Ruoming said was true or not, it had automatically become the truth in Chu Suhe's heart. If Xia Ruoming had to spend more money because of her, Chu Suhe would feel really guilty, so no matter how reluctant she was, she had to accept Xia Ruoming's request.

After Chu Suhe finished speaking, Xia Ruoming couldn't stop smiling.

She understood Chu Suhe too well and had completely grasped her.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Susu. I'll trouble you to prepare the meals for the next ten days. I have a big appetite, so remember to make more delicious food. Just call me if you need any money."

As she was a sporty girl, Xia Ruoming had been trying to keep in shape and was extremely self-disciplined in her diet. She deliberately said that she would make more delicious food, just to give Chu Suhe more nutrition. After all, she had noticed in high school that this little girl seemed to have a big appetite. She could eat up the portion that she herself could not finish without leaving any.

With such a good appetite, she only eats white rice with pickles every day. Xia Ruoming feels that this kind of life is a torture just thinking about it. If she does this, she probably won't be able to last for a month. In her previous life, even when she was living a miserable life, she could at least eat the discounted expired bento sold at the bottom of Wangfujing every night...
