Chapter 1092: Daddy Brings You Home
However, the young master had never entered the kitchen.
Leng Hao stood in front of the kitchen counter. He glanced at the pots and pans. He had no experience in cooking. Even though he had the heart to cook now, he did not know where to start.
He turned around and looked at the maid who was in a daze, “Why are you still standing there?”
“Oh, yes, young master.” The maid hurried into the kitchen. She placed the pot on the stove and went to get the noodles, “Young master, put two bowls of cold water in the pot first, and put the noddles in when it is boiling. During this time, we can prepare the seasoning first. Young madam’s taste is very light recently, so we can just put some fresh soy sauce, lard, and green onions…”
The cold water was heating in the pot. According to the maid’s instructions, Leng Hao cut the green onions on the chopping board. Soon, the water in the pot was boiling. Leng Hao quickly let go of the kitchen knife and went to lift the lid of the pot.
Because he moved too quickly, his fingers were directly scalded by the pot side.
“Young master, are you okay?” The maid was shocked, “I’ll go get the ointment…”
“No need.” Leng Hao stopped the maid. Although his fingers were scalded with a big b.u.mp, he didn’t care about such a small injury.
He scooped the cooked noodles into a big bowl and began to add salt. Because he was afraid of saltiness, he put it in little by little and tasted it with a spoon, making sure the taste was just right.
Looking at the noodles he cooked for the first time, Leng Hao was very proud. He took a plate and put the noodles on it, and he turned around to go upstairs.
He could not wait to let Ye Xiaotao taste it.
If he coaxed her like this, she should be happy, right?
In fact, he didn’t know how to pat girls. Bai Lingyun was right in the past that he was very unromantic. After graduating from university, he put all his focus on the Leng family’s businesses. He knew that Bai Lingyun was leaving the country and getting further and further away from him, but he didn’t chase after her. The two of them started arguing on the phone, and he wouldn’t send roses to surprise her. He only felt tired. So, breaking up was the inevitable result for the two of them.
Now, he wanted to learn how to coax Ye Xiaotao. Although she and Little Xiaotao made him very angry today, what should he do? It was his woman and child anyways, and he loved both of them.
These two were all he had.
Leng Hao pushed open the bedroom door and walked in quickly, “Xiaotao, get up and have some noodles. I personally prepared this… noodles for you…”
His words stopped abruptly because Ye Xiaotao was already asleep.
Leng Hao’s enthusiasm turned cold. He wanted to hear her praise and see her smile at him, but she actually fell asleep.
The noodles were about to get cold.
Leng Hao gently sat by the bed and looked at the sleeping girl with a teardrop at the corner of her eyes.
Was she crying?
Leng Hao reached out a finger to wipe away the teardrop and leaned over to kiss her forehead. He murmured softly, “Honey, stop messing around. Live a good life with me. I love you.”
…
Ye Xiaotao slept in bed for several days as she didn’t want to get up at all. Only in the afternoon would she stand on the balcony to bask in the sun for a while.
That morning, her phone rang. It was a call from her daddy.
“h.e.l.lo, daddy…”
“h.e.l.lo, Xiaotao.” Father Ye’s voice was very serious, “Why are you so worrisome? I went abroad on business for just two weeks, and you created some troubles.”
Father Ye flew abroad right after Christmas. Ye Xiaotao guessed that her father already knew. She buried herself in the quilt and had her pink tongue stuck out, “I didn’t cause troubles.”
“What are you doing now?”
“Um, sleeping.”
“Coward !” Father Ye scolded her.
Ye Xiaotao felt an inexplicable twitches in her nose, and then her eyes turned red. She looked up at the crystal chandelier above her head, trying hard not to cry.
“How did I teach you before? My daughter is the proudest princess in the world. If others curse you, you have to curse them back bravely. What mistress, b*tch, or s.l.u.t, where did they come from?”
Ye Xiaotao lowered her long eyelashes and said in a low voice, “Daddy, but I don’t know how to scold them back…”
Even she herself was confused.
She didn’t know if she had really made a mistake?
“Where’s Leng Hao?” Father Ye asked directly.
Ye Xiaotao’s heart skipped a beat. She could hear the reproach in her father’s words. She immediately said, “Daddy, don’t go to him. Since he doesn’t know, then let him not know. Save some dignity for me.”
“Humph,” father Ye snorted, “The whole world is blaming you. In fact, all you need is one word from him. As long as he tells the whole world that you’re his wife and that he loves you, isn’t that enough?”
“Daddy…”
“Okay, okay. Since I called you instead of him, it means that I didn’t want to look for him. Pack up and Daddy will bring you home later.”
Home?
Where was her home?
Ye Xiaotao looked at the room in confusion. In the past, she thought this was her home, but now, this home made her feel lonely and empty.
“Oh.” She replied and hung up the phone.
Ye Xiaotao stood up. She didn’t change her clothes but put on a coat over her pajamas. She opened the bedroom door and walked into Leng Mu’s room. Leng Mu was still lying on the bed.
She used her little finger to pick up Leng Mu’s index finger, “Dad, I’m leaving. My dad is coming to pick me up to stay at home for a while. I don’t know when I’ll be back…”
“If I leave, there will still be people who will tell you stories and give you ma.s.sages. When there’s time, I’ll definitely come back to see you. Also, Little Xiaotao will be born soon, so you’re going to be a grandpa…”
“But, I guess dad won’t miss me even if I don’t come back. Dad, do you not like me? Otherwise, I have been here for half a year. Why are you still not awake?”
As she said this, Ye Xiaotao let go of Leng Mu’s fingers. This villa was so big. She did not bring anything when she came here, nor did she have anything to take away when she left.
Nothing here belonged to her, except for the one pair of crystal shoes he gave her.
However, she didn’t want to bring them anymore.
“Dad, I’m leaving. Take care of yourself. Goodbye.” Ye Xiaotao walked out and closed the door.
What Ye Xiaotao didn’t know was that the moment the door closed, Leng Mu’s fingers moved again. This was the second time he moved. He made some movements for a while this time. Leng Mu really wanted to wake up.
However, Leng Mu didn’t wake up in the end.
…
Leng Hao sat on the office chair, and AChen handed the information to him, “Young master, General Zhou seems to be setting up an operation. He doesn’t intend to tell us, so are we following him like a mantis stalking a cicada?”
Leng Hao thought for a moment, and then shook his head with a serious expression, “No, we shouldn’t take reckless actions. Zhou Yao is very alert, and Ye Ziyi is not a simple person. We will keep a low profile now and wait for the opportunity to strike until we see Zhiyuan.”
“Yes.”
“By the way, have you ordered the chocolates that I asked you to order?” Leng Hao asked.
