Finally finished eating.

When the last grain of rice was put into his mouth, Lorraine's belly was bulging and he felt that his esophagus was almost filled with food.

Wu Tina was stunned.

"You actually finished eating, Brother Lin, are you really okay?"

Lorraine gave her a thumbs up.

Wu Tina's mother cheered and clapped for him. "Ah ha, I didn't expect that you actually finished eating, Brother Lin. I had already planned to throw away most of the food, or put it in the refrigerator as leftovers and eat it slowly, but I didn't expect that you were so amazing, Brother Lin, and easily did something that most people can't do."

"Mrs. Hiiragi, please don't do so much next time. I feel... I feel like my stomach is about to burst."

"Hey, what I mean is... will Brother Lin come to eat the food I make next time?"

"Ah? No, I just said it casually."

"I'll be more careful next time. Please look forward to our lunch next time."

Wu Tina's mother finished talking to herself and smiled happily.

I just agreed to make an appointment next time.

-

Lunch is over.

Wu Tina's mother stood up and started to clean up the dishes on the table, as well as some other dishes used for cooking.

Soon.

The sink in the kitchen was completely filled to the brim.

Wu Tina was also very full and was just about to ask Brother Lin to go back to the room to continue studying.

However, after taking a look at the kitchen, Lorraine stood up on her own initiative, and under Wu Tina's puzzled gaze, she walked into the kitchen and stood side by side with her mother.

"?"

Even Wu Tina's mother was a little flattered and didn't understand why.

Luo Lin rolled up his sleeves, picked up the rag, and started to wash the dishes for her. He smiled and said, "Mrs. Hiiragi, let me help you wash these dishes. It would be embarrassing to have so many dishes piled up together and let you do it all by yourself."

"Eh?"

Feeling this concern, Wu Tina's mother's heartbeat quickened a little.

She was happy and shy.

"Brother Lin is a guest, how can he come and help me wash the dishes and chopsticks?"

"It's hard to make so many dishes in one morning and buy so many ingredients in advance, right?"

"Brother Lin, are you concerned about me?"

A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of Wu Tina's mother's mouth.

Lorraine replied while chatting while washing the dishes.

"Mrs. Hiiragi has treated me so kindly. I would feel bad if I didn't do something. Oh... just leave everything to me. Mrs. Hiiragi has been busy for so long. She just finished her meal. Just go to the sofa and relax and watch TV."

"That won't do. It's rare that someone comes to help me with housework. I can't bear to leave Brother Lin alone in the kitchen while I go and take a rest."

“It’s not good to push yourself too hard.”

"Maybe I'm used to being busy. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable when I'm idle."

"Haha..., I understand this."

"Brother Lin also understands?"

"It seems that Mrs. Hiiragi is also very busy."

"Yeah... I have to work and do housework at the same time. I am so busy. My daughter got a failing score of 28 in the exam. It's really depressing."

"Scores don't mean everything. Wu Tina is an excellent girl. I think no one knows this better than you, Madam Hiiragi. This was just an accident. It may be difficult for her to get a perfect score, but it's easy for her to pass."

"Brother Lin really believes in that child."

"If even we, the people closest to her, don't trust her, that would be the greatest harm to Wu Tina."

Hear this.

Wu Tina's mother paused for a moment, took a deep look at Luo Lin's profile as he was washing dishes, smiled warmly from the bottom of her heart, and murmured with emotion, "I'm really glad now that the person Wu Tina knows is Brother Lin. It's great."

"what?"

"Brother Lin, don't worry. No matter how hard or tiring it is, it doesn't matter. After all, this kind of life won't last long."

"What do you mean?"

"Like now, with so many dishes, it would be really tiring for me to wash them alone, but if there are two of us, wouldn't it be easy? I might even enjoy it~"

"Of course it will be easier with two people."

"Hehe, huh?"

"?"

Lorraine felt that the other party seemed to have something else in his words.

But he has no evidence.

Wu Tina's mother also smiled without saying anything, but the pair of slippers on her feet under the apron moved a little closer to Lorraine.

"Sure enough, it's most comfortable for two people to do housework together like this."

"Mrs. Hiiragi?"

"Does today's food suit your taste, Brother Lin?"

“A good chef will naturally cook excellent food.”

"Is this a compliment to me?"

"I haven't eaten so much like this in a long time. I feel like I'm going to gain several pounds tomorrow after this meal."

"Hahaha... You can't blame me for this. It was you, Brother Lin, who insisted on finishing it."

"really."

"Next time I will try to control the portion size. After all, eating too much every time is really bad for the body."

“A normal portion will do.”

"If it's not enough, remember to tell me and I'll make more. Eating too much is not good, but not eating enough is not good either."

"I see."

"I'm glad that the food suits your taste."

To the end.

Wu Tina's mother smiled happily from the bottom of her heart.

Lorraine smiled back.

-

however.

Facing the scene in the kitchen at this moment, Wu Tina, who was still sitting at the dining table, frowned the whole time and stared in the direction of the kitchen with an incredible look on her face.

She didn't know what Brother Lin was talking about with her mother.

But she could clearly see that her mother was chatting very happily with Brother Lin, and the atmosphere seemed to be very good.

This, this, this..., what on earth is going on? !

Isn't this right?

Why did she suddenly feel like she was redundant?

-

at last.

With the joint efforts of the two, all the dishes and cleaning work piled up in the kitchen were done.

Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief.

He stretched himself, and at this moment, a hand holding a handkerchief suddenly reached out to him and gently wiped the sweat off his face.

"Mrs. Hiiragi?"

This intimate behavior made Lorraine a little embarrassed.

The latter smiled.

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Lin."

"You're welcome."

"By the way, since Brother Lin has already done so many things for me, can I ask Brother Lin to do one more thing for me?"

"Are there any unfinished chores? No problem, just let me take care of them."

"Oh, it's really reliable."

"Mrs. Hiiragi, just speak frankly. I, Lorraine, mean what I say and I will never be ambiguous."

"That's what you said, Brother Lin."

"Uh, yes."

Lorraine didn't know what the other party wanted to ask of him, but the meaningful and mysterious smile on the other party's lips made him wonder if he had agreed too rashly.
