Kissing Gu Liancheng was something Grandpa JiÇ flatly refused.
He didnât succeed, instead kissing Grandpa JiÇâs hand and getting a free cold shoulder in return.
Seeing the intimate contact between Eleven and Cute on his side, his jealousy surged.
"Letâs swap hugs," he suggested.
Gu Liancheng crushed by Grandpa JiÇâs cold shoulder: How dare he reject me?
From then on, the babies werenât exchanged.
Although Gu Liancheng looked unhappy, he was secretly delighted.
Being rejected by his son? So what? This was a bliss that many people desired.
The sight of this harmonious family of four was exactly what he had envisioned for the future.
He didnât notice Elevenâs sigh of relief as she rubbed her abdomen. Thankfully she hadnât fallen on the ground as Gu Liancheng had cushioned her fall. She didnât feel much impact, nor did she feel uncomfortable now.
The unborn baby wasnât affected in any way.
Whatâs one kind of happiness for a family? Itâs when the lady of the house cooks a meal catering to everyoneâs taste and the whole family gathers for a joyous dinner!
The kindergarten held a mini cooking competition. Due to the limited venue space, only five families were chosen. Eleven was fortunate enough to be chosen, and she was completely overwhelmed looking at the number in her hand, which matched the one picked from the box.
Even buying a lottery ticket wouldnât give her such a high chance of winning!
"What should we do...?" Eleven looked helplessly at the two children, then at Gu Liancheng.
He knew she was not skilled at anything!
"Thereâs no choice left," said Cute, "Eleven, just make an appearance and cook some clear soup noodles? Consider it a completed task, okay?"
Jiujiu tragically covered his forehead, reluctant to reveal the truth.
"Whatâs wrong?" Gu Liancheng was convinced there was an intriguing story here.
Eleven confessed: "I once... cooked for Jiujiu Baby... I thought it would be safe not to add any condiments. But who knew that when the pot opened..."
Jiujiu added: "If you had just returned home then and saw what was in the pot, you would never guess what the original ingredients were, nor what dish she was trying to concoct."
âPu-chi...â Gu Liancheng chuckled, "Could it be that exaggerated?"
While at Sea View Villa, every meal was prepared by Aunt Fang, he knew she didnât know how to cook anything, which was why he never asked her to cook.
Her expertise in âcookingâ was probably limited to breakfast - sandwiches.
"Please donât let her cook..." Jiujiu looked distressed, "Food poisoning aside, the risk of burning down this place and causing an emergency evacuation is far greater."
Cute swallowed anxiously: "I mean... food poisoning isnât a small issue either..."
"Has she never cooked for you at home?" Gu Liancheng was curious, "Wasnât there even one successful dish?"
"Well there is one," remarked Jiujiu after careful thought, "Instant noodles."
"....."
"No need for cooking, just boil water with an electric kettle, pour it into the bowl, add the seasoning, wait for it to soften, and thatâs all. Itâs ready to eat." Jiujiu was very calm, saying decisively, "I can guarantee this, she didnât mess it up, itâs the original flavor."
"....."
Gu Liancheng thought if she could even mess up this, he would have to salute her for it.
"But I think..." Gu Liancheng cautiously estimated, "Jiujiu, you should also be able to make this âdishâ of instant noodles, right?"
"Of course," Fang Jiujiu nodded without hesitation, "I can even add an egg."
Gu Liancheng: "....."
