“Lu Hao has returned,” Xiao Yichen said.
“So you know!” Luo Ziyan’s voice came through softly on the other end. “An hour ago, 1 received a call from Lu Hao. He said he had just arrived at the hotel and called me to inform you and Zishen about our lunch together tomorrow.” Luo Ziyan realized he hadn’t clarified and added, “Lu Hao didn’t call you and Zishen because he assumed you were busy with work. Don’t overthink it.”
“Okay,” Xiao Yichen replied, now understanding the situation. He had planned to call Ziyan to inquire, but Lu Hao had already contacted him.
“In that case, 1’11 inform you now! Let’s have lunch together tomorrow. Don’t be late. I’ll send you the address later,” Luo Ziyan confirmed.

In the afternoon, after finishing work, Xiao Yichen didn’t drive home. Instead, he went to his mother-in-law’s house.
Lin Wan returned home after work and started preparing dinner. When she heard a knock on the door, she thought her mother had forgotten her keys. She quickly set down her work and went to open the door.
Lin Wan opened the door smiling, but her expression gradually shifted as she saw Xiao Yichen’s face.
“Why are you here?” Lin Wan inquired.
“I’m here because you’re here,” Xiao Yichen replied, gazing at Lin Wan with deep affection.
Lin Wan avoided looking at him, lowering her head and uncertain how to respond. After a moment, she decided to turn around and head back inside, not intending to engage with Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen followed her in, closed the door, hung up his coat, and entered the kitchen.
Observing Lin Wan preparing dinner ingredients, Xiao Yichen offered, “1’11 help.”
With that, Xiao Yichen rolled up his sleeves and prepared to work with Lin Wan.
Lin Wan quickly tried to stop him, saying, “No need. Go and take a seat outside.”
Given his status and his privileged upbringing, she couldn’t believe he would personally engage in household chores and cooking. However, the last meal he had prepared was exceptionally delicious, and his actions from the previous night were far from clumsy. She couldn’t quite fathom it. The high and mighty scion of a wealthy family who controlled Ancheng City’s business lifeline wasn’t less capable of managing domestic tasks than ordinary men.
Xiao Yichen disregarded her request and inquired, “Are you cooking, or should I?”
Lin Wan felt a bit helpless about Xiao Yichen ignoring her. Can he cook?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Do you know how to cook?” Lin Wan asked Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen glanced at Lin Wan but didn’t answer her question. Instead, he instructed her, “Wash the green peppers and give them to me.”
With that, Xiao Yichen started to prepare the seasonings for stir-frying.
Lin Wan was slightly puzzled but still listened to Xiao Yichen and washed the green peppers for him.
Thirty minutes later, a delectable dinner was ready. Lin Wan carried the dishes into the dining room, and the aroma filled the air, bringing a smile to her face.
After setting the table, Lin Wan and Xiao Yichen sat across from each other at the small dining table. Xiao Yichen instructed Lin Wan, “Call Mom and ask when she’ll be back.”
“Alright.” Lin Wan agreed, taking out her phone and dialing her mother.
After a brief conversation with her mother, Lin Wan hung up and informed Xiao Yichen, “Mom said she has an evening class tonight and will be back late. She told us to go ahead and eat..”
