Chapter 20
In the evening, when Luo Chaoyan was having dinner with Huo An, she saw Huo Jin coming.
She was a little surprised. Wasn't he very busy with official duties these past two days? She heard from her mother-in-law that he left early every day and returned to the study very late at night. She collected her thoughts, looked at him and asked, "Sir, shall we have dinner together?"
Huo Jin looked at her, then nodded and sat down.
Huo An looked at him, then called out in a baby voice, "Father...!"
Huo Jin raised the corners of his lips slightly and touched his head. He was not so afraid of him these days. He thought it was all thanks to her.
Luo Chaoyan asked Yueli to serve him the food and then left him alone.
She ate her dinner happily, occasionally staring at the little fat boy while he was eating.
Ever since she got married, the fat boy liked to eat with her, and he didn't let the wet nurse feed him. She didn't want to feed him, so she asked someone to make him a small wooden spoon, and cut the food into small pieces in advance, and then let him eat by himself.
Seeing that he pushed the vegetables to the side of the bowl and only ate the meat, Luo Chaoyan deliberately took the meat and vegetables from his bowl.
"Mother!" Huo An was dissatisfied.
Luo Chaoyan smiled and said, "I told you, you have to eat a bite of vegetables before you can eat a bite of meat!"
The little fat boy looked at her pitifully. Seeing that she was unmoved and wanted to take the only piece of meat left in his bowl, he quickly protected it with his fat little hands and nodded obediently, "Eat! Vegetarian...vegetables, eat!"
Seeing him pick up the vegetarian dishes obediently, Luo Chaoyan smiled and rubbed his little head. The little fat boy is now her pass with the old lady, so she has to scare him well.
As she was eating, she felt Huo Jin's gaze on her. She was a little confused. What was wrong with this guy? She looked up at him and asked, "Sir, is the food not to your liking? How about asking Yueli to go to the kitchen and make you something you like?"
"No need!" Huo Jin withdrew his gaze and continued eating.
After dinner, Huo An asked the nurse to take him back to his room to wash up and rest.
When Luo Chaoyan came out of the bathroom, she saw Huo Jin was still there, holding a storybook that she had been flipping through when she was bored recently. She suddenly felt her face getting hot. She remembered that the script was about a love story between an infatuated man and a resentful woman. Not only was it melodramatic, but it also contained some descriptions that were not suitable for children.
"Ahem!" If she pointed a gun at him at this moment, would it seem that her attempt to cover up something was making it even more obvious?
Hearing her cough, Huo Jin put down the book in his hand and looked at her.
"Sir, are you not busy today?" Luo Chaoyan said a little embarrassedly.
"fine!"
Luo Chaoyan nodded and asked tentatively, "Sir, do you want to wash up?" If he agreed, it meant that he would stay overnight. It’s just that her period hasn’t ended yet! Is it possible that he still wants to sleep on the couch?
As if he understood her concerns, he said softly, "I'll go back to the front yard."
That’s a great feeling! She was considerate and said, "Then I'll let Yueli and Liuxu go with you to serve?"
"No need!" Huo Jin frowned, raised his hand and pinched his brows, then walked away from the desk, "It's getting late, you should rest!"
When he passed by her, he saw her standing there with a puzzled look on her face, and his originally cold expression became even more gloomy.
Outside the door, Fengli and Shulan saw that their master looked unhappy and walked in worriedly.
"Madam, have you offended the master? He doesn't look very well." Shu Lan asked.
Luo Chaoyan shrugged innocently, "I don't know how I offended him, I just asked if he wanted someone to serve him."
"Girl, you don't want Yueli and the others to serve the master, do you?" Fengli asked in surprise.
Seeing her nod, Pineapple said excitedly: "Madam, then I know the reason."
"What's the reason?"
Luo Chaoyan and Shu Lan looked at her with questioning expressions.
Fengli smiled and said, "Madam, do you still remember what the master's attitude was if the third lady arranged a maid to serve him?"
"Dad would get angry with mom, and then he wouldn't talk to her for several days, crying and saying that mom didn't have him in her heart anymore, so he would think of arranging maids to serve him." Luo Chaoyan said with her eyes wide open, and said in disbelief: "You mean..."
"Yes, the master must think that the lady doesn't care about him and wants to push him away, so he is angry."
Shu Lan nodded and said with a smile: "Madam, what Fengli said seems to make sense."
"Impossible!" Luo Chaoyan waved her hands and said, "Dad and Mom really love each other, which is why they are like this. I..." And they are just reluctantly becoming a couple. .
But is it possible that... his pride as a man was hurt? After all, he had a prominent family background, outstanding looks and talents, and women who liked him came one after another. Suddenly, a wife who didn't care about him came. etc! Not paying attention? Uh...it seems! really! She didn't take him too seriously. So he was a little upset? Or else she would appear more welcoming in the future?
Fengli teased, "Madam, why are you so unconfident now? Don't you always teach us to be confident? Maybe the master really starts to care about you."
Luo Chaoyan glared at her. Could such confidence be used in this way?
Shu Lan frowned and said seriously, "Madam, I heard that when the former madam was here, the master didn't have a concubine. I think the master is devoted to his wife. Madam, you can't think of pushing her away anymore."
Uh... okay! She tried her best.
