Yan Xiluo smiled indulgently. The child was really starving, but she was also a little worried that she might choke.
"Eat slowly, I'm almost done. I'll bring the dishes out in a bit and we can have dinner."
This is the last dish Yan Xiluo cooks; after it's done, they can have dinner.
Upon hearing this, Ai Xue's eyes lit up, and she put down her chopsticks, ready to pounce.
They proactively ladled the soup out of the pot, then carried it to the table with a rag on both sides.
Seeing this, Lan Jingyan and Lan Jingchen quickly went to the kitchen to help, one serving dishes and the other serving rice.
Yan Xiluo took off her apron and took out the last dish.
"Let's eat!"
Yan Xiluo smiled gently. To be honest, if it weren't for Lan Jingchen and Ai Xue being there...
She doesn't really mind wolfing down her food, but now she has to be more ladylike so as not to scare people.
The only person who has ever seen through her true colors is Lan Jingyan, and there are some things she hasn't even revealed to An Xinyue and Li Mufei yet.
Everyone waited until Yan Xiluo started eating before picking up food themselves, since she was the chef for the night and had to go first.
It's obvious that Lan Jingyan and Yan Xiluo have higher family status; Yan Xiluo's family status is definitely higher.
Therefore, in Lan Jingchen's eyes, Yan Xiluo was the 'elder' among the four of them. If she didn't start eating, the others wouldn't dare either.
Yan Xiluo didn't care whether they ate or not; she calmly picked up some food and put it in her mouth.
Her eyes were so cold that only food mattered to her; she didn't even glance at Lan Jingyan beside her.
"My sister-in-law's cooking is even better than last time!"
Lan Jingchen smiled as he watched Yan Xiluo praise the dishes, saying they suited his taste perfectly and were even better than the chef at home.
"Go away! Don't think I don't know what you're up to. I can tell what you're thinking with just one look from you."
Lan Jingyan originally wanted to say something simple and blunt: 'I can tell whether you're farting or pooping just by looking at you.'
However, with Luo Luo and Ai Xue present, he still needed to maintain a certain image when disciplining Lan Jingchen, especially since they were eating...
He was initially happy that his baby was being praised, but the person in question happened to be his own younger brother, and he knew perfectly well what the younger brother was up to.
Don't even think about coming over for a free meal!
“Sister-in-law, look at my brother, he always keeps me at arm’s length.”
“I’m his brother, not his enemy.”
Lan Jingchen quickly seized the opportunity to complain to Yan Xiluo.
Ai Xue, standing next to him, broke out in a cold sweat, feeling utterly humiliated by him, and really wanted to pretend she didn't know him.
Yan Xiluo paid no attention to them, just smiled and continued eating without saying a word.
"If you can't even shut up while eating, I don't mind asking you to leave so as not to disturb your sister-in-law's meal."
Lan Jingyan spoke casually, occasionally putting food on Yan Xiluo's plate.
Lan Jingchen quickly shut up, and Ai Xue suppressed a laugh.
The way the two brothers get along is so funny, unlike her, who is their only daughter.
She had never experienced what it's like to have siblings; she had only interacted with classmates and friends.
Yan Xiluo finished two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup in one go; she was really hungry this time.
Even Lan Jingyan was surprised, as his baby had previously only eaten one and a half bowls of soup at most.
He looked at her with some worry, afraid that she might not be able to hold on.
After finishing her meal, Yan Xiluo collapsed onto the sofa. She touched her slightly protruding belly, as this was the first time she had ever felt her stomach bulge.
At that moment, she wondered what it would be like if there was a little life inside.
She shook her head, wondering what she was thinking. She was too young to be considering such things.
Moreover, the person behind this hasn't surfaced yet, so she can't welcome the arrival of a new life, and she's also afraid of not being able to protect him properly.
We'll have to wait another three to five years before we can consider this issue.
What are you thinking about?
Lan Jingyan sat down next to her, his arm gently around her shoulder.
Lan Jingchen was in charge of washing the dishes, and Ai Xue, feeling embarrassed to disturb them, followed them into the kitchen.
"I'm wondering what it would feel like if there were a little life inside, but it's too early to say right now."
"We can consider it in three to five years."
Yan Xiluo expressed what was in her heart.
She admitted that she likes children, but not right now.
"It must be a very magical feeling, but I respect your opinion on that."
"I'll accept it whenever you want, or if you don't want it."
"Because in my heart, no one is more important than you. Even if we have children in the future, you will still be number one in my heart."
Lan Jingyan also likes children, but that's not something he can decide.
He couldn't take Yan Xiluo's place in enduring the pain of pregnancy and childbirth.
He has no right to speak on whether or not to have children; he will listen to Yan Xiluo.
Whether or not he has children, it will not affect his determination to love Yan Xiluo, because she will always be his only one.
"Yes, it's my luck to have met you."
Yan Xiluo's voice was very soft.
"Ah Yan, I feel a bit full and want to go downstairs to digest."
She admitted that she had really eaten too much and was only now feeling a bit full.
"Would you like to sit for a while before you leave? I'm worried that walking around right after eating will give you a stomachache."
Lan Jingyan smiled indulgently. He had really thought she could finish the food, but he hadn't expected her to be so full. She was only just realizing it.
"Okay, let's watch some TV."
The two of them, like an old married couple, leaned against each other on the sofa and watched TV together with perfect understanding.
Lan Jingyan put his arm around Yan Xiluo, and Yan Xiluo looked gently at his shoulder.
After Lan Jingchen and Ai Xue came out of the kitchen, they said they were taken aback by the display of affection.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I'll take Xue'er and leave first. We won't disturb you any longer."
He knew that if he stayed here any longer, he would definitely be killed by Lan Jingyan.
If he doesn't leave soon, he'll definitely find a way to get him something to do.
"Big brother, Luo Luo, I'm leaving with A Chen."
Ai Xue smiled maliciously at Yan Xiluo and waved her hand.
Lan Jingyan nodded slightly.
"Ah Chen, drive slowly, don't let Xue'er speed."
Yan Xiluo couldn't help but warn Ai Xue that she wasn't a very good driver and that speeding was more terrifying than blowing up a kitchen.
Ai Xue looked embarrassed.
"Yes, sister-in-law."
Lan Jingchen took Ai Xue's hand, and together they walked to the door, changed their shoes, and quickly left.
"Why is Xue'er calling you 'Big Brother' now?"
Yan Xiluo looked completely bewildered.
"I can't keep letting her call me Boss Lan, can I? What will people think of me then?"
"If I stay at home, how will my elders view me?"
Lan Jingyan looked at Yan Xiluo, who had asked her such a question, with amusement.
"Oh~ so you tricked her into calling you 'big brother,' that's impressive."
Yan Xiluo thought it was Lan Jingyan's idea, but suddenly realized that this man knew how to help others.
But what they said was...
"Ah Chen told her to shout it; I was just responsible for responding."
Yan Xiluo: ...
It's a good thing I didn't praise him, otherwise I would have praised him too soon.
"Mid-Autumn Festival is just a few days away, and I'm suddenly getting a little nervous."
“I didn’t have this feeling before, when we weren’t living this close together.”
"Now, just thinking about what might happen that day makes my heart race uncontrollably."
