Chapter 91.1 — Miss You
Edited by: Larkspur
By the time she arrived home, Qin Jiran had already finished cooking dinner and was waiting for her; as was little Su Nuo. One adult and one child sat on the sofa, seemingly looking at a picture book.
"Uncle, is this an alligator? Why is it so ugly and it even has a big mouth?"
"…Perhaps the alligators think they're very handsome." Qin Jiran thought about it before answering seriously.
At this exchange, Su Yanyi laughed.
"Or maybe the alligators think they're the most beautiful ones." There was a ferocious alligator on the picture book but it didn't say the gender.
Qin Jiran suddenly turned around to see Su Yanyi standing behind them. Likewise, she said this in a serious tone.
Yanyi's face was deadpan, nonetheless, Qin Jiran felt like he was teased still.
"Aunty, you're back. We're waiting for you to eat dinner. Uncle made a lot of tasty food." Little Su Nuo also turned around and revealed a huge smile.
"You want to freeload a meal?" Su Yanyi raised her eyebrows and asked little Su Nuo who wanted to drool at the sight of food.
Little Su Nuo's face turned red embarra.s.sed right then. "Father had to attend to some matters and Grandmother said I could eat here. Can I, Aunty?" He said, timidly.
As Little Su Nuo asked, he secretly raised his head to look at Su Yanyi. He was embarra.s.sed but eager at the same time.
"If you can eat by yourself, then it's ok." Don't expect her to feed him!
Little Su Nuo immediately nodded his head and said, "I can eat by myself!" In reality, little Su Nuo ate by himself the majority of the time. Of course, Mother Su and the servants would look after him.
Qin Jiran patted little Su Nuo's head. This scene, why did it feel like it was a conversation between a strict mother and an obedient son? Although Yanyi acted like she didn't like kids, she rarely rejected little Su Nuo's requests. She was gentle, albeit hidden under the cold surface.
While Yanyi wasn't back, the food was kept warm in pots. Qin Jiran went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes and little Su Nuo looked at Su Yanyi before walking into the kitchen as well.
"Uncle, Nuo Nuo will help you carry the dishes." Little Nuo Nuo said considerately to the busy Qin Jiran. At this time, Su Yanyi who'd come over as well heard his words. It was unclear what she thought of, but her expression changed. "There's no need. Go out and sit there." She said, coldly.
How would little Su Nuo who got rejected dare to say another word? He immediately walked out and obediently sat on his chair. In this house, he was scared of Aunty the most. He didn't really have the courage to talk back when he saw Aunty's cold face!
When Su Yanyi saw little Su Nuo sitting down, she carefully picked up the dishes on the counter and brought it out.
Qin Jiran silently laughed at this scene.
Once the dishes were out, the three began to eat. Little Su Nuo tried his best to eat with his spoon. Qin Jiran sat by him and served him some food. Su Yanyi raised her eyebrows at this scene. Her eyes sparkled but didn't say anything. She wasn't extreme to the point of being jealous of a little kid!
