Wen Yu nodded at mu Zichen, then walked to the dining table and helped the servants set it up.
“Miss Wen, please have a seat. Let me handle such a small matter.” Mother Wang said with a smile. !!
“It’s alright,”replied Wen Chao indifferently.
Mu Zichen looked at Wen Yu’s back and could clearly feel her indifference to him. She had said that they would go their separate ways and that they would have nothing to do with each other from now on, and she really did that.
Just then, Qiao Yu carried Xia Ning downstairs, afraid that the wind would catch her. Xia Ning was still wearing a hat. Fortunately, it was may, so it was not too hot or cold. She did not have to suffer too much.
Xia Ning was stunned when she saw mu Zichen standing in the living room. She did not expect him to be here.
Qiao Yu placed her on the chair. The food was almost ready, so he called mu Zichen over to eat.
As usual, Gao Wanhua sat at the head of the table. Qiao Yu and Xia Ning sat on her right, Enoch sat beside Xia Ning, while mu Zichen and Wen Yu sat on her left.
“Xia Ning, drink more of this squab soup. There’s still more in the pot.” Gao Wanhua placed a bowl of soup in front of Xia Ning.
“Thank you, Mom.” Xia Ning said with a smile. She looked at the big bowl of soup in front of her and felt a little stifled. No matter how good she was, she couldn’t possibly finish the big bowl of soup in front of her, let alone the soup in the pot.
Gao Wanhua then looked at Wen Chao and said,”Xiao Li, don’t stand on ceremony. Here, have some soup.” She looked at mu Zichen.”Zichen, I can’t reach it. Help Xiao Ling get a bowl of soup.”
Xia Ning glanced at her mother-in-law. She was sitting opposite Wen Yu. If her mother-in-law could fill a bowl for her, why couldn’t she reach it when it was time to give it to Wen Yu? she understood what her mother-in-law meant all too well.
Mu Zichen instantly understood Gao Wanhua’s intention and immediately went to take Wen Chao’s soup bowl, but a hand beat her to it.
“No need, I’ll do it myself.” Her voice was very light, and there was a faint sense of alienation.
Mu Zichen’s hand paused for a moment before she retracted it.
Wen Chao scooped up a bowl of soup and took a sip. Then, he said to Gao Wanhua,”Auntie, this soup is not bad.” She looked at Xia Ning and said,”it’s all thanks to you.”
Gao Wanhua smiled and said,”if you like it, I’ll get the kitchen to make it for you tonight. It doesn’t matter if it’s for Xia Ning’s sake. Just tell me what you want to eat.”
“Thank you, Auntie,” Wen Chao said with a smile before continuing to drink the soup.
Gao Wanhua glanced at mu Zichen who was beside her and sighed to herself. She turned to look at Xia Ning and said,””Eat more,”
Xia Ning nodded and lowered her head to drink the soup. At a time like this, it was better for her to pretend that she did not hear anything.
Beside her, Qiao Yu picked up some food and gave it to Xia Ning. Looking at the mountain of food in his bowl, Xia Ning felt helpless. Was he treating her like a pig? If she continued to eat like this, how could she still have her figure?
However, in front of Gao Wanhua and the others, she couldn’t give all the food to Qiao Yu. Otherwise, her mother-in-law would try to persuade her not to lose weight and to take care of her body.
After the meal, Qiao Yu carried Xia Ning back to her room. Wen Yu was too embarrassed to disturb her.
As a result, she and mu Zichen could only stand in the same space, and the atmosphere was inexplicably strange.
Gao Wanhua looked at the two of them and said with a smile,””Don’t just stand there. Sit down, eat some fruit, and chat. ”
“Thank you, Auntie.” Mu Zichen nodded and prepared to sit down.
“Aunty, I suddenly remembered that there’s something I need to deal with, so I’m going out for a while,” Wen Chao suddenly said.
