Wearing casual clothes, Tang Yu went downstairs to find that the housekeeper had already prepared a rich breakfast.
"Go call Jing Shuo. Forget it... I'll send it upstairs later. You definitely won't be able to call him down." Tang Yu pulled out a chair and sat down. After saying the first half of the sentence, he immediately stopped the butler from going upstairs to call for help.
The housekeeper nodded as usual, took a step back, and agreed: "Yes, Master, the Madam always listens to you."
Tang Yu pursed his lips, drank a mouthful of porridge, and slowly retorted: "You can't say that..."
"Yes, you're right," the butler readily changed his tone. At that moment, personal opinions didn't really matter; all that mattered was reading the expressions. He could even ignore certain things when necessary, like the involuntary upward curl of the patriarch's lips.
He understands everything.
If after all this time, he still can't see through the head of the family's expression, then he really has no right to stay in the Tang family.
So while Tang Yu was having breakfast, the housekeeper took the opportunity to mention that Tang Ruize was going home for dinner today.
"Ruize is coming back?" Tang Yu put down the spoon and looked at the housekeeper in surprise.
Since Ruize took over the company, he's been working hard to expand the business and develop a number of new industries. He's been incredibly busy. Surely, Ruize truly lives up to his role as the protagonist in the original story? Otherwise, how could he be so talented?
At this time, Tang Yu had no idea that his "praise" strategy played the most critical role.
It’s good that Ruize is back. It will be so lively when we all have a meal together.
Without waiting for the butler's affirmative answer, Tang Yu nodded and instructed the butler:
"Then have someone prepare some dishes that Rui Ze likes. He finally gets to go home, but don't forget Jing Shuo's chicken soup. Use the old recipe."
Butler: "Okay, I've noted it down."
However, it seems very obvious which side the head of the family leans towards.
"Well, prepare some breakfast for me and I'll bring it upstairs." After giving instructions, Tang Yu had almost finished his breakfast.
As soon as he started to move, the housekeeper quickly handed him a handkerchief. Unfortunately, Tang Yu looked down and didn't see it at all. Instead, he casually took a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth.
The butler withdrew his hand awkwardly, and frowned silently in confusion.
"Is this an illusion? I feel like the Patriarch is much more relaxed now. He used to do these little things with grace..."
But in the blink of an eye, Tang Yu seemed to be still the serious but rigorous and elegant head of the family in the housekeeper's memory.
Well, it must be my own illusion.
The butler solemnly put away those inappropriate thoughts and hurriedly prepared a new breakfast for Tang Yu. Only after watching Tang Yu's back disappear around the corner of the stairs did the butler withdraw his gaze.
Perhaps some of the minor changes in the head of the family are due to... the fact that he has a wife?
It's not impossible.

“Dongdongdong——”
There was a rhythmic and gentle knock on the door. Tang Yu held the tray in one hand and knocked on the studio door with the other.
Although he could go in directly, it seemed necessary to obtain the consent of others, even though it belonged to him from the inside out.
"Who is it... No, wait, I'll open the door right away!"
The voice from inside the door sounded a little impatient at first, but then suddenly turned into a calm, gentle yet slightly hurried tone. Tang Yu guessed that Jing Suo might not have known it was him at first, but realized it after hearing the knock on the door.
So Tang Yu smiled and said soothingly: "Don't worry, take your time."
But fortunately, no one else came to call Jing Suo.
Jing Shuo, who is immersed in his creation, can be "teasing".
A flurry of hurried footsteps echoed, followed by the sudden opening of the studio door. Lin Jingshuo's heartbeat quickened with excitement, and his chest heaved. He gasped for air, his eyes flickering as he looked at Tang Yu.
"I'm sorry... I didn't hear it at first."
"Yeah, it's okay, let's eat." After responding, Tang Yu walked in with breakfast. After taking two steps, he did not forget to glance sideways at Lin Jingshuo, motioning him to follow.
Fortunately, the studio here is big enough, so you don’t have to worry about the smell contaminating the paintings when eating here.
Tang Yu placed the steaming hot breakfast in front of Lin Jingshuo, deliberately ignoring Jingshuo's somewhat uneasy look, and said directly and forcefully:
"Have a meal."
The only way to dispel your lover's subconscious caution is to maximize his or her sense of security.
Of course, don’t forget to give some “sweets” after the “command”.
So Tang Yu thought for a moment and added, "Eat well, and I'll give you a kiss as a reward after you finish eating."
In an instant, all the messy thoughts in Lin Jingshuo's mind disappeared. Looking at his lover's deep and steady eyes, Lin Jingshuo had only one thought in his mind -
Who said that Tang Yu, who was in a high position, didn't know how to flirt with others? He saw that Tang Yu was very good at it.
