"I’ll go ask Grandma to make you something to eat," he said as he was about to get up. Discover more novels at N0veI.Fiɾe.net
Mo Ran held onto him, "I want some wontons, just ask Grandma to make a bowl for me."
"I can make those, I’ll go cook them for you."
"Okay. Also, cook an extra bowl, you eat too."
Gu Yixuan paused, feeling very touched inside; she actually knew he hadn’t had dinner either.
"Then alright, I’ll cook a big bowl, and we’ll eat together."
"Mm," Mo Ran smiled and nodded emphatically.
Gu Yixuan seemed very excited and immediately ran to the kitchen to make wontons. He made pork and mushroom filling, even deliberately wrapping one with a date inside, hoping Mo Ran would eat it later.
Soon, the fragrant wontons were ready. He filled a big bowl to the brim, then added salt, spices, and chopped green onions, making it smell even more irresistible.
Carrying the tray upstairs, as soon as he entered, Mo Ran sniffed.
"It smells so good. Gu Yixuan, your cooking is amazing. It’s a pity you’re not a chef."
She sat up, leaning against the headboard.
The man placed the bowl on the bedside table and sat down next to her, "I’ll be your personal chef, only you get to taste my cooking."
"You said it; you can’t cook for anyone else later on."
He scooped a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and brought it to her lips, "Have some soup first, then eat the wontons."
The soup was especially delicious, and Mo Ran sipped it again and again.
Gu Yixuan fed her a few wontons before she grabbed the spoon and scooped one up to his mouth, "You eat, too."
The man smiled and ate it.
Mo Ran scooped another wonton for him, "Tastes good, right?"
"Mm, it’s delicious."
Mo Ran smiled proudly, as if she were the one who had made it, "I told you, your cooking is great."
"Let’s have another one." She scooped up the wonton that contained the date.
Gu Yixuan immediately recognized this particular wonton and pushed the spoon towards her mouth, "You eat this one."
Mo Ran didn’t hesitate and ate it, only then realizing something was amiss.
"What did you put inside? Mmm... is it a date?"
"You got it right, Ranran, you’re lucky, you got the most special wonton," Gu Yixuan said with mock seriousness.
Mo Ran almost spat out laughing.
"You already knew this was the most special one and you gave it to me, where’s my luck? You should be the lucky one."
"Mm, we’re both lucky, you’re lucky to have met me, and I’m lucky to have met you."
