She had made many meals for him. Even when he came back late after working overtime, she would still prepare his favorite night dishes. During the four years or more, he had never cooked a meal for her, nor even made a cup of tea. At that time, he did not realize that at all, just enjoying her kindness to him as well as her considerate care and attention.
He didn’t know what he had squandered until now.
“Yanyan, the fish soup is done. Drink a bowl while it’s hot.” Mo Yixuan poured out the fish soup out of the pot.
Then he filled a small bowl and handed it over to He Xiyan.
The soup was thick, and there was a strong smell of fish in the kitchen.
He Xiyan did not refuse. She took a small spoon of soup and had a taste. It was a little light, even a little fishy.
But thinking that he had never cooked before, she felt that it was quite good of him to make it like this.
“How about it? Is it tasty?” Mo Yixuan could not help but ask, blinking his eyes like a child excited for praise.
“Very good.” He Xiyan took a few more sips.
It was the first time she had eaten what he had made. If he did that when they were together, she thought, she would be excited beyond sleep for several nights.
Mo Yixuan, after being recognized, chuckled excitedly, even cutting vegetables faster. Soon, the beef was cut and so were the tomatoes.
By seven o’clock in the evening, Mo Yixuan finally pleted these dishes — one steamed dish, one boiled dish and two stir-fried dishes.
This was a special dinner. Three of them had had it for a long time. Yuanyuan didn’t blame his dad for being bad at cooking. Instead, he had a good time eating, and helped bring some dishes to his mom occasionally.
“Mom, eat more. You don’t look very well.” Yuanyuan held two ribs to mother’s bowl.
He felt very happy at this time that he could have dinner with his parents. If only that would happen every day.
He Xiyan smiled bitterly. She ate the ribs that her son had for her, but full of plex feelings beyond words.
“Yuanyuan, listen to my father’s words later, and study hard, you know?” He Xiyan said in a deep voice.
Suddenly, her eyes became a little sour again.
Because after this meal, she would go back to the castle, and in the future Yuanyuan would live with his father.
Yuanyuan looked at his mother and nodded hard. “Mom, I will study hard. Don’t worry.”
Yuanyuan knew that his mother was sad, because he couldn’t acpany keep her in pany every day.
However, thanks to his sister Xixi, his mother would not be lonely.
He Xiyan looked at Mo Yixuan again, finding that he was frowning at this time. It seemed that some kind of feelings were hidden between his eyebrows, that kind of sad emotion.
Mo Yixuan was in the same plex mood. He thought that if it was for Xia Yuwei, he and Yanyan would still be husband and wife. At this time, they would remain a happy family of three.
This year, he had tried many ways to let Yanyan e back to his side, but she refused him all the time.
“Yixuan…” Looking at the man in front of her, He Xiyan called his name again. With no more hatred or love, she now only sincerely hoped that he could lead a good life. “Take good care of Yuanyuan. If there is something wrong with Yuanyuan, remember to call me immediately.”
He Xiyan said in a deep voice.
Mo Yixuan nodded slightly. In the blink of an eye, a drop of tears fell from the corner of his eye, onto the dining table.
