Mo Xiaotuo and Zhou Tingting exchanged a glance, both feeling a deep dislike for Xu Duoduo.
People who like to gossip behind others' backs are the most annoying.
After listening to Duoduo's rambling, the two of them remained silent and waited for him to leave before rushing off to help.
At six o'clock, Lin Yu reminded them that it was time to get off work.
Zhou Tingting and Mo Xiaotuo wanted to stay and work because the shop was busy, but Lin Yu kicked them out.
There was a bus stop right next to the shopping mall. The two went to the bus stop and parted ways, each taking a bus home.
Mo Xiaotuo was in a good mood today and thought she should celebrate her first day at work. After getting off the bus, she went to the market and bought some shrimp, crabs, scallions, ginger, and garlic before going home.
When she returned, she found that Mr. Luo had come back. Hearing noises coming from the kitchen, she quickly put down her backpack and went to help.
Luo Chen and Mo Xiaotuo had the same idea. Today was her first day at work, and they wanted to celebrate. He usually didn't have the time or energy to cook, so he planned to show off his skills today.
"Let me do it. You've been busy all day. Sit down and rest for a while." She stepped forward and began to untie the apron that Luo Chen was wearing.
The apron was a little small, and Mr. Luo looked somewhat awkward wearing it, which made her want to laugh.
"This apron is a bit small. I'll buy a bigger one tomorrow." Luo Chen knew the apron didn't fit properly, so he didn't think much of it and just hung it up when he got back.
"Don't buy it. I'll bring you one when I come back to buy groceries tomorrow." Mo Xiaotuo thought it would be strange for him to buy an apron when he drives a Mercedes to work.
"Alright, you're in charge of the kitchen." Luo Chen nodded with a smile, then pulled her to sit down in the living room: "Try my cooking today and see if you can eat it?"
"But, this?" Mo Xiaotuo felt a little embarrassed, as she still owed Mr. Luo a month's worth of cooking for her.
Luo Chen didn't give the little wildcat a chance to refuse, and turned around to busy himself in the kitchen. Finding that she had bought shrimp and crab, he cooked both together.
Mo Xiaotuo smelled the aroma and couldn't help but come over for a look. Seeing that the dishes on the table were mostly spicy, she knew that Mr. Luo had put a lot of thought into it.
As they waited for the last dish to be cooked, the two carried it out of the kitchen.
Six dishes and a soup, they all look good, but I wonder how they taste?
The two of them were also hungry when they smelled the aroma of the food, and Luo Chen had even brought back a bottle of champagne. After pouring the wine, he said happily, "Congratulations on your first day at work."
It turned out that this was a celebratory dinner specially prepared for her by Mr. Luo, which made Mo Xiaotuo feel flattered.
"Come on, cheers!" Luo Chen handed a glass of champagne to the little wildcat.
Mo Xiaotuo took the cup and said gratefully, "Thank you, Achen!"
"Why say all this? We're all living under the same roof, sharing our lives. No matter what tomorrow brings, we should all encourage each other. That's what gives us hope," Luo Chen said with feeling.
Um!
Mo Xiaotuo responded, took a sip of wine, and picked up a dish without chili peppers for Mr. Luo.
Luo Chen felt a warm feeling in his heart when he saw her take the initiative to put food on his plate, and he stuffed the food into his mouth in one bite.
No wonder Grandma said the kitchen was a good place to nurture relationships; now it seems she was right. At least, he sensed she was less guarded towards him.
As Mo Xiaotuo ate her food, she had a feeling she couldn't quite describe.
Mr. Luo's concern left her somewhat bewildered, and even more so, frightened. She was afraid that once she got used to it, it would suddenly disappear one day, and she wouldn't be able to accept it.
After all, they were only a couple in a contract, and that relationship would end after a year. She hated the feeling of loss, so even when she was dating Pan Lei, she maintained a certain distance.
“Come on, eat more. You’re too thin. Once you get busy at work, you must eat more, otherwise your body won’t be able to handle it. When your brother saw you last time, his eyes were full of worry. You can’t let him worry.” Luo Chen remembered the worry that Zhiyan couldn’t hide in her eyes when he saw her last time.
"You're right, I do seem to be too thin." Upon hearing her younger brother's concern, Mo Xiaotuo quickly stuffed rice into her mouth.
"I'm not telling you to eat more rice, I'm telling you to eat more vegetables, shrimp, and a little crab too, but not too much, it's too cold." Luo Chen picked up several shrimp for her, but only one crab leg.
Um!
Mo Xiaotuo obediently agreed, and ate every dish that Mr. Luo put on her plate.
After the meal, she realized that Mr. Luo hadn't touched his chopsticks at all; he had been peeling shrimp and picking out vegetables for her the whole time.
"My cooking skills are pretty good, right?" Luo Chen looked satisfied as he saw the little wildcat eating with relish.
"It's delicious, thank you. It's better than my cooking. I didn't expect you to be so busy every day, yet you can still cook. It's really rare." Mo Xiaotuo thought about how many high-class seniors at school couldn't even do laundry, let alone cook.
Luo Chen smiled with a hint of vicissitude, unintentionally opening up a past he didn't want to recall. He casually said, "I became independent when I was very young. I didn't know how to cook, so I had to go hungry. There was a time when I was even thinner than you. Once, when my grandmother saw me, she cried so hard she couldn't catch her breath. From that moment on, I had to tell myself that no matter what I wanted to do, I had to take good care of my health first, otherwise the people who cared about me would feel even more sorry for me."
Otherwise, those who care about you will feel even more heartbroken!
Mo Xiaotuo felt that these words were a bit hurtful. When she first arrived at the Mo family, she often didn't have enough to eat and wore clothes that Mo Lisa didn't want. Mo Lisa also often secretly abused her younger brother, which made her very scared.
It wasn't until one day when Grandpa came and ordered my eldest uncle to send my younger brother to school that I was able to breathe a little easier during those oppressive days.
She stood up, intending to reheat the food for Mr. Luo, as he hadn't eaten enough tonight.
Just then, her phone rang on the table, and the number displayed ruined her mood.
"I answered it, put it on speakerphone." Luo Chen could tell from the little wildcat's expression that it was definitely a call from the Mo family.
Mo Xiaotuo sat down and pressed the answer button and the hands-free button.
"You jinx, you really don't care about the fate of the Mo family, do you? You actually hung up on my mother. Do you really think I can't find you? Let me tell you, you won't have a peaceful life until you settle things with the Mo family. Tomorrow I'll have my mom stop that sick kid's tuition." It was Morissa's rapid-fire voice on the other end of the phone.
Mo Xiaotuo felt there was no need to tolerate such a brainless person any longer.
Luo Chen couldn't stand this crazy woman calling the little wildcat a jinx. He put on a cold face and said, word by word, "Tell your father that without 20% of the shares, your Mo family can forget about getting that project."
