Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Sun Yuelan cried as she pulled her up. “Yueyue, are you alright?!”

“Mom.”Xu Yue’s lips were stained with blood. She gritted her teeth and said, “I’m fine.”

Her eyes were filled with hatred. Her hands were tightly clutching the inside of her clothes, as if she was trying to tear a hole in them.

Xu Wanwan, you deserve to die!

Sooner or later, she would return this favor a thousand times over!

Inside the rented room, Xu Wanwan sat on the sofa and poured Xu Yuchu a glass of water. “Did you get scared just now?”

“No.”

Xu Wanwan looked at the young man sitting with his head lowered, who was exceptionally silent.

For some reason, her heart ached a little. “Don’t take what they said to heart. Don’t worry about the tuition fees and living expenses. I’ll call you regularly.”

Xu Yuchu firmly rejected her. “I don’t want it.”

Xu Wanwan guessed that he was thinking about her, so she patiently said, “The most important thing for you now is to study. If you feel bad about it, can you return it to me when you earn money in the future?”

Xu Yuchu pondered for a moment and nodded. “Okay.”

Xu Wanwan looked around at the furnishings in the house and frowned slightly.

This house had three bedrooms and one living room. It looked a little big to live alone. There was not much furniture in the house, so it looked empty.

Xu Yuchu must be very lonely living here alone, right?

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips, wanting to make him happier. She thought for a while and asked, “Yuchu, do you want to eat hotpot?”

“What?”

“I think today’s weather is more suitable for eating hotpot. Why don’t we cook hotpot at home tonight?”

Xu Yuchu was initially not interested, but when he saw how serious Xu Wanwan was, he nodded and said, “Sure.”

“Okay! Then let’s go out and buy some ingredients. We’ll eat here tonight!”

Xu Wanwan was a person of action. As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up and was about to walk out.

Xu Yuchu suddenly asked, “Then, Sister—”

He changed his words and tone halfway through and said, “Is Mr. Li coming?”

Xu Wanwan was reminded by him and patted her head. “Thank God you reminded me.

Otherwise, I would have forgotten to invite him!”

Xu Yuchu scratched his head, feeling a little helpless.

His Brother-in-Law was so good to her. Why couldn’t she be more attentive to his Brother-in -Law?

However, he only dared to grumble in his heart.

Xu Wanwan ran to the side and made a call to Li Jingran.

“Has everything been settled?”

Xu Wanwan listened to the low-pitched male voice on the phone and the corners of her lips curled up. “Thanks to the people you helped me find, they were quickly chased away.”

“Then you should go home early.”

“Well, I don’t want to go home for dinner tonight. ‘

The other end of the phone was silent. Xu Wanwan tried probing, “I want to cook dinner for Xu Yuchu tonight. Can you come over?”

There was a hint of doubt in Li Jingran’s voice. “Why can’t you bring him back to our house?”

When Xu Wanwan heard this, she was suddenly startled.

Did he just say, go back to our house?

She was stunned. “I think he’s too lonely at home alone, so I want to have dinner with him to make the house livelier.”

Li Jingran chuckled when he heard the girl’s innocent voice.

She was really kind. She had suffered so much in the Xu family, yet she still wanted to give warmth to others.

He did not want to break her kindness, so he said in a low voice, “I’ll come over after work.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Wanwan was in a good mood. With a smile on her face, she dragged Xu Yuchu to the supermarket to buy ingredients.

Xu Yuchu only had the simplest pots and pans at home. She also helped to buy some cooking ingredients before she went to buy the ingredients for tonight.

Beef and mutton rolls, as well as tripe meatballs and fresh vegetables, were essential in cooking hotpot.

She bought two big bags of food and went home, and Xu Yuchu was already sweating profusely. He drank several cups of water as soon as he came back.

Xu Wanwan did not have time to rest. She washed the ingredients she had bought and put them on a plate before preparing the soup base of the hotpot.

As she bustled around, the room was filled with the fragrance of hotpot. The steaming hotpot was served on the table, and the dining room was filled with the smell of smoke and fire.

Just as Xu Wanwan was about to finish preparing, there was a knock on the door in the living room.

She knew it was Li Jingran, so she quickly took off her apron and was about to open the door.

However, Xu Yuchu rushed over first. When he went to open the door, she saw Li Jingran and greeted him politely, “Hello, Brother-in-Law.”

Li Jingran’s eyes were slightly startled. When he heard this form of address, he could not help but raise his eyebrows. Brother-in-Law?

Xu Yuchu did not feel that something was wrong at all. He turned his body around to let Li Jingran into the house.

Xu Wanwan stood to the side, a little embarrassed.

“Well, it’s ready. You can sit down and eat.”

Li Jingran was in a much happier mood. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. “Okay.”

The three of them sat around a small round table, making hotpot. Xu Wanwan was busy helping them with the dishes, and she hasn’t had even a few bites.

She was worried that Xu Yuchu would be too shy to start, so she kept putting food in his bowl.

But every time she finished putting food in his bowl, she felt that Li Jingran had not also moved his chopsticks as well, so she would put food in his bowl again.

After this meal, Li Jingran and Xu Yuchu were full, but she didn’t eat much.

Seeing that the two of them stopped eating, she felt a little embarrassed. “Aren’t you going to eat more?”

“Sis, I can’t eat anymore. Take your time.”

Li Jingran looked at the girl calmly. “There’s no rush.”

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and looked at the food in the pot. She really wanted to eat freely. However, because the two people beside her kept staring at her, she felt very uncomfortable.

“Uh, why don’t you go watch TV after you finish eating?” Xu Wanwan bit her chopsticks. “I’ll just eat here by myself.”

“Okay then, you can stay with Brother-in-Law.”

“I already said that you can’t call him Brother-in-Law. How could you forget?” Xu Wanwan hissed softly.

Xu Yuchu quickly slipped away and turned on the remote control to watch TV.

There was a boring variety show on the TV, and he was not in the mood to watch it. Instead, he turned his head to look at Xu Wanwan and Li Jingran from time to time.

He saw that the man who looked as cold as an ice mountain was patiently helping Xu Wanwan to heat up the hotpot. After the hotpot was finished, he would put more in her bowl. He was very patient.

Xu Yuchu looked at them seriously. He felt that Li Jingran was really good to his Sister.

Even if they were not together yet, he had to find a way to help his Sister so that they could be together.

At the dining table, Xu Wanwan blew on the hot meat roll and took a bite in satisfaction.

She had not eaten hotpot for a long time, and she looked at the man with a smile. “Can we cook hotpot at home in the future?”

Li Jingran put the freshly boiled baby vegetables into her bowl and smiled. “Why not?”

“I thought you ate just bland food before,” Xu Wanwan said as she ate the food in her bowl. “I thought you didn’t like this kind of greasy food. You didn’t dare to cook it before.”

Li Jingran laughed. “In the future, you can let Aunt Zhang Cook whatever you want to eat. You don’t have to cater to me.”

Xu Wanwan looked up at him with shining eyes. “Okay!”
