Xiao Zexin’s gaze was a bit heavy, and Jian Yufei’s voice pulled his thoughts back.
"Godfather, let help you back to rest."
Xiao Zexin smiled and nodded.
...
Jian Yufei wanted to cook herself, so Ruan Tianling naturally assisted her.
The two made so dishes that everyone loved and then set them on the table.
Jian Yufei personally went to invite her mother to dine with them.
She knocked on Nangong Ruyue’s door.
"Madam, to celebrate my godfather’s eyesight recovery, we’ve prepared so Chinese dishes, and we’d like to invite you to dine with us," Jian Yufei said with a smile.
Beside her, Carrie said, "Madam can’t eat just anything; her diet is specific."
"I’ve made a lot of dishes suitable for the madam."
"It’s still not necessary; for the sake of madam’s health, she can only eat als prepared by our hired chef."
Jian Yufei felt frustrated; she wasn’t her mother, why did she have the right to refuse on her behalf?
Jian Yufei looked at Nangong Ruyue, "Madam, would you do us the honor?"
She thought her mother wouldn’t refuse, but unexpectedly, she really did.
[I’m not going, you all eat, I understand your good intention. Good child, you go eat.]
Hearing Carrie’s translation, Jian Yufei felt very lost inside.
But she did not show anything on her face.
"Alright then, I’ll head downstairs first," Jian Yufei smiled a little.
At the dining table, Xiao Zexin and Ruan Tianling were already waiting for them.
Seeing Jian Yufei co alone, Xiao Zexin’s eyes dimd slightly.
Jian Yufei smiled and said, "The madam is not well, she can’t eat just anything, so she won’t be joining us. Let’s eat ourselves."
She sat down beside Ruan Tianling and personally put so dishes into Xiao Zexin’s bowl.
"Godfather, don’t you love my braised pork ribs? Have so more."
She also picked up so dishes for Ruan Tianling.
Xiao Zexin picked up his chopsticks, smiled slightly and said, "Then let’s eat ourselves, eat more, since Yufei made it, it must be delicious."
Xiao Zexin took a bite of the braised ribs, and then said with a smile, "The taste hasn’t changed."
Jian Yufei understood what he ant.
When he was Xiao Zexin, he certainly often ate this dish.
No wonder he loves Chinese food so much, especially dishes with the flavor of A City, he used to be a person from A City as well.
Ruan Tianling also picked up a piece for Jian Yufei, "Eat quickly, you’ve been busy all day, you must be hungry."
Jian Yufei and he exchanged a smile, each interaction was full of love and deep affection.
Xiao Zexin watched them like this, feeling comforted in his heart.
He might not find happiness himself, but seeing his daughter happy makes him satisfied as well.
...
After the al, Xiao Zexin took them out for a walk.
The walking was just an excuse, it was really for talking.
"Yufei, now that my eyes have recovered, you and Tianling should leave here. No need to stay because of ," Xiao Zexin said to them.
Jian Yufei shook her head, "Dad, I’m not leaving."
Having finally found her father, and with her mother here as well, how could she bear to leave?
Xiao Zexin disagreed, "This is Nangong Xu’s territory, there’s no telling when they might find out your identities. It’s very dangerous for you to be here, so don’t stay too long."
Jian Yufei still shook her head, "I’m not leaving, I can’t abandon you and leave."
She was very afraid that if she left, she might never see them again.
"Father-in-law, you could leave with us," Ruan Tianling said.
