Huo Ruyu suddenly felt that the fruit in front of her was no longer fragrant and she couldn't eat it. It seemed that everyone was busy with their own things and was unwilling to pay more attention to her.
How could such an outstanding person like her be treated so coldly?
In fact, it was the eldest daughter’s fragile heart that was at work.
There was a deep sense of loss in Huo Ruyi's eyes.
Zhou Jingyun accompanied Chi Lanlan into the house and let her rest.
"Have a good rest. Call me if you need anything."
Seeing Zhou Jingyun was about to go out, Chi Lanlan suddenly reached out and grabbed him.
Zhou Jingyun turned around, looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chi Lanlan's eyelids twitched and she said, "No? I just want you to spend more time with me."
Zhou Jingyun nodded: "Okay, I'll stay here with you and won't go anywhere."
He stayed with Chi Lanlan until Song Lingshu called them to dinner.
Chi Lanlan and Zhou Jingyun just came out of the bedroom, only to see Huo Ruyi's smiling face.
Huo Ruyi smiled and said, "Just now, Grandpa Pei invited me, and I showed off my cooking skills by cooking two dishes."
In terms of relatives, Huo Ruyi is her cousin.
There's no problem inviting her to dinner here.
But Chi Lanlan had already discovered Huo Ruyi's thoughts, especially the way she was now. The more she squeezed in here and tried to perform, the more strange it felt to Chi Lanlan.
Although she was confident that no matter what Huo Ruyi did in front of Zhou Jingyun, there would be no big change.
However, the worst thing to do in this world is to be careless.
She said, "I didn't expect you could cook."
Huo Ruyi smiled and said, "Of course I can cook. The main thing is whether it tastes good or not."
Chi Lanlan nodded. Since someone was preparing delicious food for her, she just had to enjoy it.
Zhou Jingyun and Chi Lanlan were about to sit down when Huo Ruyi suddenly said, "Give this chair to Brother Yun."
This little action made Chi Lanlan look at her. This was a bit scheming!
She simply took Zhou Jingyun's hand and said, "Sit here."
As a result, Huo Ruyi, who could have sat next to Zhou Jingyun, now had to sit next to Song Lingshu after being replaced by Chi Lanlan.
She said, "Grandma Song, I'll do it with you."
"Okay." Song Lingshu nodded.
Only Pei Ji frowned slightly, looked at Zhou Jingyun, and then at Chi Lanlan.
Chi Lanlan didn't look unusual at all, and said calmly, "Eat, eat, everyone, eat."
While Zhou Jingyun was eating, he took care of Chi Lanlan the whole time, being gentle and considerate, doing everything a husband should do.
Huo Ruyi's parents never did anything like this when they were together, so for Huo Ruyi, it was very fresh and interesting, and even made her yearn for it.
She felt that this was the way for two people to get along, but she had never felt this in the Huo family. Her eldest brother was also very patriarchal and would never take care of his wife so gently at home.
She looked desolate and held her head high, as if she didn't want others to see her vulnerability.
She said: "This is the first time I've experienced such a dining atmosphere. In my family, my dad never picks food for my mom."
Chi Lanlan knew what Huo Ruyi was thinking.
Although she rarely spoke, she suddenly responded, "A family atmosphere affects a child's life. When we can, we must do our best to improve it."
"Otherwise, it won't be enough to set a good example and create good habits for children that can change their lives."
In order to get Zhou Jingyun to talk, she tried her best and even brought up her family affairs.
Huo Ruyi nodded and said awkwardly, "Yeah, I think so too. A simple meal can make you feel the different atmospheres of two families."
Huo Ruyi had a better impression of Zhou Jingyun.
But Chi Lanlan thinks this is a kind of pathology. Just because her own family doesn't have it, does she want others'?
Want to grab one as soon as you see it?
If this kind of thinking is not perverted, then what is it?
Chi Lanlan and Zhou Jingyun didn't talk much while they were eating. The whole family was taking care of Chi Lanlan.
Song Lingshu asked Chi Lanlan to pay more attention to eating this and that, and also picked up some food for Chi Lanlan.
Huo Ruyi felt that she was better than Chi Lanlan and had received more and better education than Chi Lanlan. If she were in such a family, she would definitely receive more care and preferential treatment than Chi Lanlan.
If she were Zhou Jingyun's wife, their lives would not be like this, their lives would be better.
She sat quietly, but a lot of thoughts were going through her mind.
Song Lingshu asked her to eat more: "Ruyi, when you come here, just treat it as your own home. Don't be polite."
Huo Ruyi nodded. Although she said so, their attitude towards Chi Lanlan and herself were completely different.
In their eyes, Chi Lanlan is their family member, but she is not. This feeling makes her feel uncomfortable.
After dinner, Huo Ruyi had no reason to stay any longer. She had to go back, but it was already dark and the road was not easy to walk on.
Huo Ruyi looked at the sky outside and said with emotion: "It's so dark now. I've never been home so late before."
The meaning of this sentence is obvious, she needs someone to take her back.
Chi Lanlan glanced at Zhou Jingyun.
Zhou Jingyun couldn't send her back by himself because he still had to accompany his wife and learn prenatal education, so he called Gao Han over.
Huo Ruyu didn't expect that Zhou Jingyun would send someone else to send her back, but at this time she had no reason to refuse, so she could only nod to show her acceptance.
"Then I'll go first." Although he was crying inside, his face was still full of smiles.
As he reached the door, his expression turned cold.
Gao Han didn't care about that and rode his bicycle to let Huo Ruyi get on.
Huo Ruyi reached the corner and immediately asked Gao Han to put her down: "I'll find a tricycle to take me back."
She really couldn't get used to sitting on the rear rack of a bicycle, and felt like her butt was about to be broken into four pieces.
Gao Han was originally protecting Chi Lanlan in secret, and he was happy to have some free time!
"Then be careful on the road. Call me when you get home, otherwise I won't be able to explain to my boss if something happens to you."
"No need." Huo Ruyi refused and said, "No need. Just tell me I've gone home when you get home. No need to bother."
"That's not good, what's wrong with that?"
"There's nothing wrong with it. Just do as I say." After saying that, she turned and left. She was so angry. She had clearly created an opportunity, but it still slipped away.
This was a little hard for her to accept.
Gao Han felt that women were really strange creatures.
But Chi Lanlan would not be like this. In fact, she was just suffering from a lady's illness. Since she didn't need him to send her off, he would go back to report.
As soon as Gao Han stepped in, he saw Zhou Jingyun coming out to pour water for Chi Lanlan.
Zhou Jingyun asked, "Why so fast?"
Gao Han explained: "Because Miss Huo disliked my discomfort riding a bicycle, she switched to a tricycle halfway!"
Zhou Jingyun said calmly: "In that case, you don't have to send her off next time."
"Yeah." Gao Han nodded, agreeing very much.
