The Beautiful Idol's Secret

Feng Xiao Qing felt the sudden warmth inside her heart and she decided to remind them to eat . "Xi Xi, Boss, come on! It"s time for dinner . "

Both nodded and they started to eat . Feng Xiao Qing kept looking at Lu Yi Feng when he ate, making the latter feel uncomfortable . He decided to ask when he saw her hopeful eyes, "What?"

"How does it taste, Boss?" Feng Xiao Qing asked excitedly .

Lu Yi Feng looked at her big round eyes looked at him full-of-expectation . He could almost imagine how her tail was wagging enthusiastically, asking for his praise . He cleared his throat and ate her creation once more . He admitted that they were very delicious . When did the last time he ate home-cooked meals? Lu Yi Feng couldn"t remember . As long as he remembered, he always ordered takeout for himself or lately . . . it was Lin San"s job to prepare his foods . To him, it was only an act to make himself full and able to function --- living and working . Somehow, he always felt that he lived just like a robot .

"Ehm . . . it"s delicious," Lu Yi Feng answered her question honestly .

"I didn"t lie, right?" Xiao Xi Xi proudly said that when she knew that Lu Yi Feng agreed that her mommy"s foods were delicious .

"Yes," Lu Yi Feng nodded with his stoic face .

The more Feng Xiao Qing and Xiao Xi Xi interacted with Lu Yi Feng, the more they were able to see that he wasn"t as aloof as he looked like . They started to see the difference expression that he had . When he was happy or amused, his lips seemed to curl up for a second and vanished --- if someone didn"t pay close attention, they wouldn"t notice this trait . He seemed to talk with his poisonous tongue, but he was kind enough to them . The man was so intriguing and Feng Xiao Qing started to feel that she didn"t regret to make a contract with him .

Feng Xiao Qing felt warmth in her heart, this was the first time someone other than her daughter praised her cooking . Well . . . after all, she only cooked for Xiao Xi Xi . Despite her busy jobs, she always made time to make nutritious foods for Xi Xi .

"Mommy . . . Mommy . . . I almost forgot . Do you still have to work today?" Xiao Xi Xi asked innocently . Mommy usually worked until midnight, so she was worried that her mommy would have to leave after this .

"Work?" Lu Yi Feng asked Feng Xiao Qing curiously . He took a peek at his watch and it was almost seven pm . Did she usually work until late?

Feng Xiao Qing was a bit fl.u.s.tered because she hadn"t officially resigned from all of her jobs . "I think I will . I need to hand in my resign letter," she answered .

"Where do you work?" Lu Yi Feng asked .

"It"s just a 24-hour supermarket near my old house," Feng Xiao Qing explained . She didn"t graduate from high school so she couldn"t find high-paying jobs . She had to stop studying because she needed to take care of little Xi Xi . After Xi Xi was bigger, she could only support them by working two or three part-time jobs . Her salary was good enough to feed them, so she never complained .

"I"ll send you there after we eat . I"m sure Xiao Xi Xi will be worried if you go there alone," Lu Yi Feng decided for them without asking which made Feng Xiao Qing a bit angry . After all, she used to be the decision-maker and she was pretty stubborn herself . She took a deep breath reminding herself that this man was their life-saver and besides . . . she started to realize . Did he worry about her?

"Thank you, Uncle!" Xiao Xi Xi liked the scary uncle more and more . "We"ll be going with you, Mommy!"

"Ah . . . I just remember . Didn"t you feel tired before, Uncle?" Xiao Xi Xi started to remember how Uncle Yi Feng ma.s.saged his forehead inside the car .

"I"m fine now . . . " Lu Yi Feng answered . He wasn"t that tired, it was just a random answer to let Xiao Xi Xi stop asking questions .

"No . . . No . . . No . . . you are not fine, Uncle . Mommy, isn"t uncle look a little pale?" Xiao Xi Xi insisted .

"Er . . . " Feng Xiao Qing was speechless . The man looked as healthy as a horse and his face looked radiant to her, so where did Xi Xi get the idea that he was tired and pale?! "Maybe . . . " Feng Xiao Qing didn"t know what else to say, so she could only mutter maybe .

"See? I told you, Uncle . Before you are sending Mommy to the supermarket, Mommy should help you out first!" Xiao Xi Xi declared loudly .

"Me? Help him out? With what?" Feng Xiao Qing thought to herself . Probably because she felt appreciative toward Lu Yi Feng, Feng Xiao Qing smiled and asked --- not knowing that she fell into Xiao Xi Xi"s trap, "Sure . . . What kind of help? As long as I can, I will definitely help you . "

Xiao Xi Xi giggled at what Feng Xiao Qing said . BINGO!
