Gu Qianjing picked up a piece of fried dough sticks and soaked it in the hot soy milk. She glanced at Lin Mingqi and said, “If you want to eat crispy ones, just eat them directly. If you want to eat soft ones, soak them in soy milk.”
Xiao Shu soaked the fried dough sticks in soy milk with ease. He liked eating fried dough sticks soaked in soy milk the most; they were soft and melted in the mouth with just a sip.
Lin Mingqi imitated Xiao Shu, picked up the fried dough stick with the tip of his chopsticks, soaked it in the bright white soy milk, tilted his long neck forward slightly, and took a small bite of the soft fried dough stick in an elegant manner.
Hmm, it seems to taste good.
[Mr. Lin’s movements are so elegant! He makes the soy milk and fried dough sticks taste like high-end cuisine.]
[Rich people will receive special table manners training. Even though Gu Qianjing seems to be doing some nonsense all day long, she is very elegant when eating.]
[You guys reminded me of this now. A true noble is not about how good or expensive your food is, but about your elegant and noble temperament. Sister Qian and her family turned street food into a state banquet.]
[That’s right, like Li Yunhua, she thinks she is a noble because she doesn’t give Ziheng fast food. Does she know what a true noble is? ]
[Sisters above, we don’t allow people to criticize others in Qianjie’s live broadcast room. Why don’t you go to Li Yunhua’s live broadcast room and curse her? ]
【Hahahahaha, the upstairs people are grabbing bamboo shoots. 】
I thought that considering Lin Mingqi’s body size, a bowl of soy milk and a fried dough stick would not be enough to fill him up, but I didn’t expect that he didn’t finish it at all.
Gu Qianjing looked at the two remaining pieces of fried dough sticks and the small bowl of soy milk in the bowl and sighed.
”Not to your taste?”
”No.” Lin Mingqi took out a fine handkerchief and wiped the soy milk off Xiao Shu’s mouth. “I don’t eat much.”
Gu Qianjing sighed again, “A man who is still using a handkerchief, in which year were you unearthed?”
”Then you take Xiaoshu to school. It’s not on my way, so I’ll go to work here.” When saying this, Gu Qianjing had the illusion that they were an old couple.
”Well, then go slower.” Lin Mingqi replied.
”Wait for me to buy groceries and come back to cook at noon.” After saying this, Gu Qianjing had an illusion that she was a housewife. This feeling made her feel that she had really fallen.
Gu Qianjing shook her long hair like a waterfall, picked up her handbag and went to the silver shop. A ray of morning light shone diagonally from above her head, as if she was coated with a layer of golden light.
Xiao Shu stared blankly in the direction where his mother left, feeling a huge surge of pride in his heart. The most perfect woman in the world is my mother.
Then he looked up at his father, who always had a sullen face, as if the whole world owed him money.
What virtue and ability does this man have?
How could he marry such a perfect woman?
Lin Mingqi had no idea that he had just been severely despised by his own son. He half-knelt down and pointed at the back of a man in front of him who was carrying a little dumpling on his shoulder.
”Xiao Shu, do you want that? Daddy will carry you.”
Five minutes later, Xiao Shu sat on his father’s shoulder, looking down at the bustling town, thinking that this father was not completely useless.
”It’s Xiaoshu!” Xiu Ziheng just walked to the school gate holding Li Yunhua’s hand, and saw Xiaoshu sitting on his father’s shoulders like a little emperor.
Lin Mingqi walked towards him with his long legs wrapped in high-end trousers and a chubby baby on his shoulders. He seemed to be talking to Xiaoshu, with an unusual soft smile on his lips.
Li Yunhua’s heart skipped a beat.
”Mom, mom, have you seen Xiaoshu?” Xiu Ziheng shook Li Yunhua’s arm and called her several times, and Li Yunhua suddenly came back to her senses, “Yes, mom saw it.”
Lin Mingqi has long legs and walks fast. The distance that seemed a little far away was right in front of him in the blink of an eye.
He picked Xiao Shu up with his backhand and put him steadily on the ground.
Xiao Shu ran to Xiu Ziheng and waved goodbye to his father obediently.
”Yes.” Lin Mingqi also raised his hand to signal him to go into the school quickly, “Dad will pick you up at noon.”
Xiu Ziheng’s eyes widened, “Won’t Xiaoshu have lunch with us at school?”
”Well, Xiaoshu’s mother has prepared food at home, and we are going to go home to eat.” Lin Mingqi answered his son’s friend’s question on behalf of his son.
”Oh.” Xiu Ziheng’s voice was filled with regret. Last night, his mother said that Xiaojun would not participate in the recording of the program in the future. Xiaoshu did not eat at school at noon today. There are fewer and fewer children.
Lin Mingqi reached out his hand and rubbed Xiaoshu’s head affectionately a few times, “Come on!” He wore a silver wedding ring on his slender white ring finger.
The children held hands and walked into the campus, and Lin Mingqi turned around to leave.
”Mingqi.” Li Yunhua called out.
Lin Mingqi then noticed the person standing next to the bushes. She was wearing a dark green dress that almost blended in with the bushes behind her. No wonder he hadn’t noticed there was someone here before.
”?”
Lin Mingqi looked at the familiar face, but couldn’t remember where he had seen it before, so he frowned out of habit.
”I…Li Yunhua.” Li Yunhua didn’t expect that when they met again after 6 years, Lin Mingqi didn’t recognize her. She felt lonely.
”Oh, it’s you.” Lin Mingqi nodded to Li Yunhua distantly, “Long time no see, Li Yunhua.” At this time he remembered that Li Yunhua also participated in “A Different Mom”.
”Long time no see?” Li Yunhua’s tone was strange, as if she was greeting Lin Mingqi, but also as if she was questioning, why are you so unfamiliar after meeting for such a long time?
”I’m leaving first, goodbye!” After saying hello politely, Lin Mingqi turned and left the school gate.
The love observers in the live broadcast room were blown up again.
[These two seem so distant. Weren’t they rumored to be in a relationship before? This shouldn’t be the case! ]
[It must be fake. Lin Mingqi didn’t even think of Li Yunhua just now. If they were really boyfriend and girlfriend, would he not recognize her? ]
[However, Li Yunhua calling her “Mingqi” seems quite affectionate, and it doesn’t seem like they have no relationship. What’s going on? ]
[Really? Why are you being so affectionate? Even if there was something going on in the past, we’re all married now, so it shouldn’t be that serious!]
[No, I won’t allow them to have had anything in the past. If it’s true, I will go to Sister Qian’s live broadcast room and scold Lin Mingqi.]
[Hahaha, there’s no need to go to Sister Qian’s live broadcast room to curse, Lin Mingqi has his own live broadcast room now.]
After netizens’ reminders, everyone discovered that “A Different Mom” really opened a separate live broadcast room for Lin Mingqi. In his live broadcast room, there was the back of a long-legged man leaving alone.
The cobblestone road in the ancient town was too narrow and bumpy, so even though the car was parked right in front of the B&B, Lin Mingqi still chose the most primitive way for humans to move around – walking!
Normally, he is picked up by a special car when he goes out, and he goes to the gym to exercise. Lin Mingqi hasn’t walked like this for a long time. He passes by ordinary and busy people, and hears the noisy voices of the small town. This makes him inexplicably feel a sense of satisfaction of being truly alive.
When he arrived at the B&B, the housekeeper had already sent Lin Mingqi’s spare clothes by express delivery. He picked up the large cardboard box on the ground and pushed the door into Room 202.
Lin Mingqi took off his suit jacket and hung it on the hanger, rolled up the cuffs of his shirt, and began to sort out the items that had been sent to him one by one.
The silver-gray electric toothbrush was placed next to Gu Qianjing’s pink toothbrush, and then the disposable toothbrush from the homestay was thrown into the trash can.
Men’s facial cleanser, shower gel and shampoo were taken out and neatly stacked in the niche of the bathroom, and Gu Qianjing’s toiletries were also neatly arranged one by one.
When I opened the wardrobe, I saw a pile of women’s clothes scattered inside, mixed with a few children’s cartoon T-shirts. When I looked down, I saw the open suitcase on the ground was also a mess, with half a box of facial masks and some sundries in it.
Lin frowned.
He took the phone and sent a message to Gu Qianjing’s temporary phone number.
”Why is the house so messy?”
Gu Qianjing must not have been working seriously, because her message came back immediately.
”If you don’t like it, clean it up yourself!”
Lin Mingqi suddenly felt that Gu Qianjing was quite polite to him by not saying “If you don’t like living here, get out” in front of the whole country.
Thinking that he was now eating and drinking at the expense of others, Lin Mingqi did not have the face to continue arguing with Gu Qianjing, but resigned himself to starting to tidy up the room.
He lifted up a gauze skirt and took a look at it, but couldn’t tell whether it had been worn before, so… Mr. Lin stretched out his elegant neck and sniffed carefully, and a faint floral scent came from his nose.
It must have been worn before. It smells like perfume.
Mr. Lin used this simple and direct method to distinguish between “worn” and “clean”. Finally, he stared at the pile of “worn” on the ground and fell into deep thought.
Is there nothing clean?
How did this woman get by these past two days? Did she take turns wearing dirty clothes?
So, Lin Mingqi went to the B&B owner to ask about the location of the laundry room. Following Uncle Yang’s detailed instructions, he put the clothes into the washing machine and washed a few silk shirts and long skirts by hand. He was busy for the whole morning and a room full of Gu Qianjing and Xiaoshu’s clothes were hung out to dry in the sunroom on the roof.
Then he tidied the room, took out his clothes and hung them neatly in the closet.
Even Xiao Shu’s only toy was not spared. After disinfecting the little dinosaur with alcohol, it was neatly placed next to the picture book.
The originally messy and cozy room became clean, tidy and meticulous because of the arrival of the male owner. Mr. Lin was satisfied and remembered to pick up his son from school.
When Lin Mingqi and Xiao Shu arrived home, Gu Qianjing had just come back from buying vegetables, and the three of them met in the small garden of the B&B.
Gu Qianjing’s foot was scratched yesterday. After handing the ingredients to Lin Mingqi, she went upstairs first to change into a pair of more comfortable slippers.
After pushing open the door, Gu Qianjing immediately stepped out, suspecting that she had entered the wrong room.
After confirming the house number again, Gu Qianjing pushed the door open again, looked around, and then gritted her teeth at Lin Mingqi who followed her into the room.
”You’re such a vicious husband! You threw away all my clothes!”
”Why do you have such a weird idea?” Lin Mingqi pointed to the rooftop, “The clothes you brought are all dirty, so I washed them for you out of kindness!”
”Who told you that the clothes were dirty?”
Lin Mingqi said confidently, “It smells like perfume.”
Gu Qianjing, “……”
”Let’s just say, Mr. Lin, is it possible that the perfume you mentioned is the scent of laundry detergent?”
”……”
【Hahahahahahahaha, Mr. Lin is stunned.】
[Mr. Lin has mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder, officially certified! ]
[It’s rare for such a big boss to wash clothes himself, but I really want to laugh, hahahahahaha……]
[Help, do these two usually get along like this? I am dying of laughter, where is the overbearing CEO and the stupid beauty? Why do I feel that CEO Lin is not very smart? ]
Lin Mingqi’s icy face rarely showed an expression of annoyance. “Gu Qianjing, do you think it’s appropriate to leave clean clothes lying around like that?”
”Very suitable!” Gu Qianjing spread her hands and went downstairs lightly to make lunch.
As soon as she walked into the kitchen, Gu Qianjing’s pupils trembled. Li Yunhua was wearing an apron and fiddling with ingredients in the kitchen.
No!
Mom, why is she everywhere?
