This time round, Li An’an made pork rib and wild yam soup. The milky white soup was brewed for two hours. She had chosen the best mid-section of the pork ribs and stir-fried it with water to remove the blood. Then, she placed it in cold water and brought it to a slow simmer. There were all kinds of supplements and ingredients in it. Just the smell of it made one drool. The entire living room was filled with its aroma!
Li An’an poured a bowl of soup each for Chu Yichen and Long Ting, then stood aside quietly.
Long Ting couldn’t wait to take a sip. “It’s delicious. Hoohoo, it’s so delicious. How can someone cook this well?!” He took another sip of the soup. A look of intoxication came over his face. How could there be such delicious soup?
Although he was used to eating delicacies, he was conquered in an instant.
Chu Yichen slowly picked up the spoon and drank a little. His face was still tense, but he drank two mouthfuls in a row.
On the other hand, no one touched the soup that Gu Na served. They were afraid of being poisoned to death!
The result was obvious.
Li An’an won.
Gu Na glared at her nemesis, but she had to admit that Li An’an’s soup made her hungry! However, she would never admit it.
Li An’an saw Gu Na glaring at her and gave her an innocent look. It’s not that she wanted to, but such were her culinary skills that it was hard for her to lose!
For a moment, the living room was very quiet. Only Long Ting and Chu Yichen drank the soup in silence. As expected, the two of them drank two bowls each. Long Ting even scooped up more than half of the pork ribs to eat! He was still unsatisfied after eating, but Li An’an had made too little.
Long Ting wanted to take the last piece of pork ribs in the big bowl for himself, but someone acted more quickly than him. The pork ribs went into Chu
Yichen’s bowl. He elegantly put it into his mouth and ate it expressionlessly.
Long Ting was furious, but he didn’t dare to say anything! What kind of lousy person was he? Li An’an was working in his house. Did he need to snatch a piece of pork rib? He could get Li An’an to make more any time!
He placed his chopsticks down and looked at Li An’an with a burning gaze. He decided that he must build a good relationship with this servant girl from now on. This was of great concern to his stomach going forward.
Chu Yichen finally finished the last mouthful of soup and wiped his mouth elegantly with a napkin. He said to Li An’an, “Looks like you have to continue staying by my side as a servant.” He stood up, walked up to Li An’an and looked down at her.
Li An’an’s scalp went numb when she met his piercing gaze. She did say she didn’t want to work there anymore. Was it too late?
In the Afternoon.
When Li An’an returned home, she was stunned. The three babies were not there!
She flung open all the doors in the room, the wardrobe, and looked under the bed, but there was still no sign of the three children.
She fell to the ground. These three children were very obedient. Could a bad person have come in and taken them away? She was at a loss and almost fainted before she remembered she could call the babies on the phone.
But their phone was switched off.
Just as she was on the verge of tears, her phone rang!
“Hello, are you Junjun, Jùnjùn, and Baobao’s mommy?! Our neighborhood committee will definitely help you settle the matter of the house! We have to teach the crook agent a good lesson. Also, where are you staying now? We want to send the children home, but if your health doesn’t allow it, we can help you take care of the three children until you recover!”
Li An’an was stumped for a moment. She immediately understood what the three children had done and instantly pretended to be weak. “My three babies are at the agency? They went because of the house. My poor babies! I’ve let them down…” She even pretended to cry for a bit.
“Yes, yes. Don’t worry, they’re fine. Many warm-hearted people even bought food for them. I’ll send the children back to you!”
Li An’an quickly stopped them. “No, that’s not necessary. I’ll go and pick up the children. I’m much better now. I can walk. I won’t be able to wait for you guys to send them over.. Thank you!”
