The next morning, the aroma of mocha and fried pancakes filled the dining room of the Pei family.
Du Meilan stood in front of a built-in steamer with her ap.r.o.n tied.
She was the one who baked the waffles this morning.
In the middle of the white French plate, there was a stack of soft brownish-yellow pancakes. One side was charred and the other side was soft. They were neatly stacked together and would jiggle when shook.
It was so soft that it could be easily cut with a fork.
It melted in the mouth into a milky fragrance.
“Madam, your cooking is getting better and better.” The servant was full of praise. It’s better than the chef’s,”
“I’m not happy about that.” Du Meilan smiled and asked them to bring some to the table.
She only became interested in cooking after she returned to China.
In the past, she was very good at tasting, and in this aspect, her taste matched Master Pei’s very well.
However, she was too busy with work and rarely cooked for herself.
Master Pei did not have the luck to taste her cooking even after being married for decades.
However, ever since she settled in China after her divorce, she felt like she had escaped from an unusually long marathon. She suddenly felt that she had a lot of energy and did a lot of things she wanted to do.
In the past, her life was made up of goals. She would constantly achieve her goals and then set new ones. She once thought that this was the most comfortable way of life for her.
But on the day of the divorce, she drank her last gla.s.s of red wine.
Only then did she come to her senses.
A goal was not something that had to be achieved. It could also be given up.
She gave up on her failed love and marriage and returned to her family. She did not feel as frustrated as she had imagined. Instead, she lived a relaxed and fulfilling life every day.
She liked to cook for the children.
She put two stacks of pancakes that she thought were most perfect, poured maple syrup on it, and put them into a lunchbox that could keep warm. One of them was given to her elder daughter by the butler so that she could bring it to the yoga cla.s.s for pregnant women in the morning.
Pei Xi was now six and a half months pregnant, and her figure was still well-maintained. In the early stages of pregnancy, together with Su Ji’s treatment, she put on weight for a while, but it had stabilized. The baby received all the nutrition, but the circ.u.mference of her stomach was just right. However, her limbs were slender and long, her collarbones were exquisite, and her skin was even brighter than before she was pregnant. The genes of a great beauty were unique.
There was still a serving of pancakes left. Du Meilan carried it out of the kitchen and placed it on Pei Huai’s table as she sat down at the dining table.
“I heard from Meilan that Su Ji is graduating today. Will you guys meet today? I heard that she’s going to attend the graduation party at school. Give this to her and tell her that I made it.”
Pei Huai’s gaze moved away from the contract and looked at the pancakes.
“She’ll like them.”
Du Meilan smiled. “Great”
She suddenly thought of something and looked at her eldest son, who was sitting across the table. “Zhuzhu is also graduating, right?”
Even during the period when Pei Song and Cao Zhuzhu were closest, Pei Song did not really mention her to the family, much less during this period of time.
Therefore, Du Meilan only knew a little about her and that her son was pursuing her.
“I guess so.” Pei Song held a newspaper in one hand and a fork in the other. He dipped a piece of pancake into the black coffee for a second before taking it out and putting it into his mouth.
Du Meilan pointed at him at Pei Huai, looking quite angry.
Pei Song glanced at them before noticing Pei Huai’s attire today.
The suit had just been ironed this morning. It was not the kind that he usually wore to the office. It looked a little formal. His short hair had been tidied up, and his tie clip and watch were as shiny as new. The crystal cuffs on his shirt had already been replaced.
“Why did you put on such a handsome outfit today?”
Pei Huai flipped to the page. “Attending my girlfriend’s graduation party.”
Du Meilan looked at him with an expression that said, “my youngest son is the best.”
Pei Huai said, “she’s going to perform on stage and invited me to watch.”
Du Meilan said, “then don’t forget to record it.”
Pei Song silently put a piece of pancake into his mouth, deliberately avoiding this topic.
However, Pei Huai continued, “Su Ji asked if you were going. She will be performing with Ms. Cao.”
Pei Song put down the newspaper and pulled the plate of pancakes to the front. He wanted to focus on breakfast. “Why are there so many people going? You can be our representative.”
“I can’t represent others.” Pei Huai raised his eyebrows and looked at him. “I only represent myself.”
Pei song:
After a moment of silence, he looked at Pei Huai again. “What kind of performance?”
He propped his forehead on his hand and played with a small pancake with his fork. When he spoke, there was always a smile on his lips, making it impossible to guess which sentence was serious and which was just a joke, let alone what he was thinking. “The lute? Both of them can play it well.”
Pei Huai did not have the patience to guess his brother’s thoughts. All his patience was with his girlfriend. “Don’t try to pry. Just say whether you’re going or not.”
Pei Song slowly exhaled. “No.”
“Alright.” Pei Huai did not try to persuade him. He took the car keys and stood up. “I’ll drive today. I’ll lend you the driver.”
“So nice of you?” Pei Song teased.
Pei Huai said, “there have been a lot of paparazzi following you recently. It’s more convenient to have a chauffeur.”
Pei Song said, “then, let me have CEO Pei’s chauffeur.”
Du Meilan glanced at her two sons and shook her head helplessly with a smile, not saying anything.
After Pei Huai drove off, Pei Song put on his white coat and went out after another ten minutes. Pei Huai’s driver was really waiting there.
“Second Master, CEO Pei instructed me to send you to Huichun Hall today.”
Pei Song stood in the courtyard for a few seconds with a cigarette in his mouth. He thought that he was just joking with him. He didn’t expect him to be serious.
That was fine too.
There were indeed too many paparazzi following him recently.
He opened the door and got into the back seat. He lit the cigarette in his mouth, and the driver fastened his seatbelt. The car started steadily.
Pei Huai’s driver’s driving skills were not superb, but it was very stable. The speed of the car was not slow, but it was so stable that it seemed to be at a standstill.
Pei Song enjoyed the experience.
The driver played a soothing playlist, and the temperature of the air was suitable.
After he finished smoking the cigarette, Pei Song closed the window and began to rest.
He had just closed his eyes when the driver, who was focused on driving, suddenly glanced at him from the rearview mirror.
At this moment, the car stopped at the traffic light leading to Huichun Hall.
After confirming that the second master of the Pei family had really closed his eyes, the green light lit up and the driver turned around mercilessly! Without looking back, he went in the direction of Kyokoshin University..
