In an instant, the rich aroma of meat filled the kitchen.
The little girl would probably enjoy it. The bacon was probably of the best quality. The aroma in the air made Mu Qi, who was already hungry, couldn't help but roll his Adam's apple. However, his face was still calm as he looked over.
Then the little girl seemed to be greedy, so she licked the corner of her lips with her pink tongue, and then carefully tore off a small corner of the fried bacon and put it into her mouth.
His eyes narrowed, looking very much enjoying it.
This act of cheating made Mu Qi couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips. The string that was usually kept taut seemed to slowly relax in such an atmosphere.
On a slightly chilly morning, bright sunlight streamed through the kitchen window, shining onto the dining table and onto the girl who was busy making egg rolls in the front of the kitchen.
The layers of silk nightgown swayed slightly, dimming the sunlight by several degrees, and finally shining the patterned light onto the white porcelain floor of the kitchen. The air was filled with the sweet and sour fragrance of flower and fruit tea, the aroma of toast, and the strong taste of bacon, but the smell dissipated a lot the moment it came out of the pot.
This kind of quiet morning, which seems to have no other complicated affairs, is indeed relaxing, and it is inevitable that people can't help but want to catch the lines of the morning sunlight.
The light in Mu Qi's eyes dimmed a little. He put the flower and fruit tea, which should have been added with honey, to his lips and took a sip. His eyes softened a lot.
'Muqi's love value +2, currently 26,'
He watched her put the toast in her hand into the machine, add the fried soft egg roll, a few strips of bacon, a little seasoning sauce, and a piece of bread on it, then turn off the machine, and then turn to look at him.
"Just wait another three minutes." Chu Ci walked back to her seat, took a sip of the fruit tea that had already cooled down, and continued to nibble on the toast she hadn't finished. There were still shiny oil stains on the corners of her lips from the bacon she had just secretly eaten.
"You can just call me by my name." Mu Qi responded, and suddenly seemed to remember something. He shook the amber fruit tea in his cup slightly and said this.
Why--?
Chu Ci's smile deepened upon hearing this. She tilted her head and leaned forward, smiling, "Isn't that a bit too disrespectful?"
Respect?
"...I'm only five or six years older than you." Mu Qi choked for a rare moment, paused for a moment, and then spoke, looking at Chu Ci with a pair of dark eyes, stating this fact.
"There's a generation gap between us when we're three years old. Besides, you're the CEO of a listed company, while I'm just playing around at home. The things we're exposed to are completely different. So, Uncle Mu, there should be two generations of gap between us, and we must respect each other." Seeing Mu Qi's expression, Chu Ci spoke immediately, her eyes turning into crescent shapes with a smile.
I just don't want to be like this guy who looks cold and angry, but actually feels very uncomfortable inside.
Uncle Mu? ?
President Mu is fine, but who the hell is Uncle Mu?
Mu Qi couldn't help but narrow his eyes, with a dangerous light in his dark eyes, "Uncle Mu?"
Chu Ci didn't reply to this person. She blinked her eyes, but there was still a smile in her eyes.
