Ji Lianqi was stunned for a moment: "You made so much? Can you finish it?"

"The two of us, plus that girl An Xiaotong. If there are three of us, we have to have two dishes."

"Okay." Ji Lianqi nodded, then silently picked up the spoon on the side, "I'll serve it."

"It's not ready yet. What do you want to serve?" Ye Ying hurriedly grabbed the big spoon from Ji Lianqi's hand, then picked up a chopstick and poked the big pig's trotters.

If the pig's trotters are easily poked with chopsticks, it means it's ready to be cooked.

Ji Lianqi looked at Ye Ying's movements in one go and said, "You seem to be very skilled."

Ye Ying's movements froze, and she was a little confused as to what Ji Lianqi's sudden words meant, "Is it weird? I used to cook delicious food by myself."

"Yeah." Ji Lianqi's eyes were slightly stunned, but he didn't say anything after all. With two hands, one on the left and the other on the right, he picked up the large pig's trotters and beans stewed with ribs.

Ye Ying was horrified, "You, you, why don't you put down the plate, I'm afraid you'll knock it over! This plate is quite heavy!"

But she seemed to underestimate him.

I saw Ji Lianqi easily carrying two large plates of food up to the second floor and back to the house.

The macho man's cry was indeed not in vain, and her worries were a bit unnecessary.

Ye Ying washed her own pot and the pot borrowed from Sun Lin. After cleaning up the mess, she went to the guest house and asked An Xiaotong to have dinner with her.

While eating, An Xiaotong looked a little nervous and seemed to be afraid to eat. She kept eating only white rice.

"Xiaotong, don't you like these dishes?" Ye Ying asked.

"No." An Xiaotong bit her lip, raised her head and glanced at the stern Ji Lianqi, then took a random bite from the dish closest to her and put it into her mouth.

Ye Ying saw with sharp eyes that what An Xiaotong ate was half a spicy ginger...

Sure enough, the next second I saw her frowning fiercely, and then spitting out the mouthful of ginger.

Ye Ying suppressed her smile and put a piece of pork ribs into An Xiaotong's bowl.

"Then what's wrong with you? Why can't you let go?"

An Xiaotong shook his head but remained silent.

Ji Lianqi immediately understood that the little girl's appearance in the film seemed to have something to do with his presence, so he went out knowingly after eating.

After Ji Lianqi left, Ye Ying lowered her head and glanced at An Xiaotong, who was instantly relaxed, "What happened?"

An Xiaotong was silent for a while, then raised his face: "Auntie, Uncle Ji looks so fierce, he always has a straight face."

fierce?

This little girl actually thinks Ji Lianqi is evil?

Understanding An Xiaotong's concerns, Ye Ying smiled and put another chopstick into her bowl: "Your Uncle Ji is not fierce, he just doesn't like to laugh."

"If he doesn't smile, he is mean." An Xiaotong pursed her lips slightly, and suddenly looked at Ye Ying with some confusion: "Auntie, how could you marry such an uncle from the People's Liberation Army who always has a dark face?"

"Ah?" When the little girl suddenly asked about this, Ye Ying was stunned!

How does this make her explain?

She couldn't just say that it was the original owner of the body who drugged this cold-faced uncle of the People's Liberation Army, and then unfortunately, her soul traveled through time and took over...

"Uh..." Seeing An Xiaotong holding her head with one hand and waiting curiously for her next words, Ye Ying casually said in desperation:

"It's harmful. The main reason is that your Uncle Ji likes my type and pursues me closely. Otherwise, how could I agree to your aunt's request?"

After listening to Ye Ying's nonsense, An Xiaotong's expression contorted:

"really?"

Ye Ying keenly sensed something was wrong, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly ask that?"

"Auntie, don't be angry if I tell you." An Xiaotong immediately recounted everything she had heard in the past two days.

"One day I heard the aunts in the courtyard chatting. They said that Uncle Ji doesn't like you at all. It was you who forced Uncle Ji to marry you!"

"But I don't believe you, aunt, would do such a thing! So those aunts must be talking nonsense, right?"

Damn it, who is talking nonsense in front of a child again!

She didn't force Ji Lianqi!

But it's true that I don't like her...

Then, I heard An Xiaotong say with a righteous face:

"After my secret observation in the past few days, I found that Uncle Ji really doesn't have a good look on you, Auntie! He always has a dark face towards you!"

"I originally thought this uncle was very nice, but he seemed a bit fierce! But he treated you like this, auntie, so I decided that I don't like Uncle Ji anymore."

Ye Ying's mouth opened slightly, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

A child's love goes as quickly as it comes?

"Hmph! If Uncle Ji is like my dad..."

Seeing An Xiaotong mentioning her family for the first time, Ye Ying immediately pricked up her ears and asked, "What's your father like?"

This is an opportunity to learn about her family situation.

But this little girl is very clever, and no useful information about her family can be gleaned from her.

I just briefly mentioned that after her biological father divorced her biological mother, he married her a new stepmother under the guise of finding someone to take care of her.

But it is worth mentioning that her biological father treated her biological mother very badly, and he had already hooked up with the so-called stepmother before the two divorced.

So An Xiaotong didn't believe her father's lies at all.

Not only that, the stepmother often beat her while her father was away on business.

.....

This time, she couldn't bear it anymore and ran away, wanting to run away from home. Unfortunately, she was caught by human traffickers.

After listening to this, the two key points that Ye Ying captured were that An Xiaotong's so-called stepmother was really rubbish, and that she seemed to think that her father was a man who was 'chaotic at first but abandoned at the end'.

No wonder she didn't want to go back to that home at all. It turned out that she had a trashy stepmother.

Although Ye Ying sympathized with the child and felt distressed, she still couldn't keep her by her side.

If she were to stay, it would be one thing whether she would be able to raise her, but the other would be that it would bring a lot of trouble and inconvenience to herself.

She was planning to start a career in the 80s. Not to mention whether having a child would affect her, Ji Lianqi didn't necessarily want to be a father, right?

The second important point is that An Xiaotong seems to think that her father is a man who "starts in chaos and ends up giving up".

The reason why this little girl said this is that she also subconsciously thought that Ji Lianqi would be a 'scumbag' like her father?

Thinking of this, Ye Ying pinched An Xiaotong's cheek and said, "Probably not. Your Uncle Ji has a stinky face at most, so he won't be like your father."
