First love wants to get back together with me

...is a mountain.

is the mountain.

mountain.

This sentence echoed in Tao Rui's mind, and he stared at the painting in front of him with puzzled eyes similar to An An's copy and paste.

Tao Rui asked himself that he had used all his imagination to piece together these messy lines into oceans and big ships, but An An told him that this was a mountain?

Where do these chaotic lines look like mountains?

Dad Shan will definitely cry when he sees this painting.

Tao Rui clapped his palms abruptly, nodded seriously with a determined and unquestionable expression: "An An is right, this must be a mountain! Uncle originally wanted to say it was a mountain, but he accidentally said it was wrong. Stupid. An An’s mountain painting looks exactly like the real mountain. Can I give the painting to my uncle after An An’s painting? My uncle likes An An’s paintings very much. My uncle wants to buy a picture frame and keep it as a collection. When An An becomes a painter in the future , this painting is the most precious.”

An An was a little flattered by the praise. He lowered his head shyly, then raised the corners of his lips proudly, and said reservedly, "Yeah!"

Tao Rui can praise people like a fairy, and it just so happens that An An also likes Tao Rui's set, one praises with all his strength, and the other is delighted to hear it, and the atmosphere when getting along is unprecedentedly harmonious and warm.

During this period, Xiao Yichen pushed open the kitchen door to ask Tao Rui for help, but suddenly saw this scene and closed the door again in a daze.

Xiao Yichen never thought that Tao Rui could have such a picture of getting along with An An, and when he decided to hide An An's life experience forever, Xiao Yichen knew that he and Tao Rui could never go back to the past.

Before seeing Tao Rui again, Xiao Yichen never thought that he would have an intersection with Tao Rui.But after seeing Tao Rui again, Xiao Yichen clearly realized that his thoughts were getting more and more deviated from the established track.

Xiao Yichen was still deeply attracted by Tao Rui just like before.Tao Rui's connivance towards him, his meticulous attention to him, and Tao Rui's powerful charm exuded from the inside out made Xiao Yichen fall into the trap like losing control.

Xiao Yichen leaned his back against the wall, and in front of him was the sizzling chicken wings, but his mind was completely occupied by the picture he saw just now.

Why did Tao Rui treat An An so well?Is it really because of your own reasons?

Xiao Yichen was too distracted, before he could figure out why, he suddenly smelled a strong burnt smell.His mind was violently dragged back to reality, Xiao Yichen hastily picked up the spatula to turn over the chicken wings, and when he turned it over, he found that the side that was attached to the pot had turned black.

Xiao Yichen stared at the chicken wings speechless for a while, then thought that Tao Rui might smell the smell, and quickly fanned his hands to try to dispel the smell.

After a while, Xiao Yichen finally felt relieved when he heard that there was no movement outside.

In the living room, An An, who was drawing famous paintings with his head down, suddenly raised his head and glanced worriedly at the kitchen.

Tao Rui stared at the top of An An's head, unable to suppress the desire to touch his son.So he gently rubbed An An's head cautiously, seeing that An An did not show any resistance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and his mood felt like he couldn't touch the ground.

Tao Rui smiled lowly, "Has An An smelled the smell? Do you think Dad can make a delicious meal?"

An An's nose twitched, and she could clearly smell the paste.He pursed his lips and shook his head seriously for a while.

Tao Rui said again: "Is it impossible or I don't know?"

An An lowered her head and continued to create with a pencil in her hand.

Tao Rui couldn't help laughing and said, "What if Dad's cooking is terrible? Uncle has eaten your dad's cooking before, it's really terrible!"

An An paused slightly, and listened carefully with her ears raised curiously.

Tao Rui said helplessly: "But uncle has to eat it. Your father made it for uncle himself. Even if the vegetables were too salty and fried, uncle still ate them all. Does An An think uncle is very powerful?"

An An didn't speak.

Tao Rui didn't mind, and started a new conversation, "Even if Dad's cooking is not delicious, An An will eat it, right?"

This time An An was very serious and nodded vigorously.

Tao Rui smiled and praised: "An'an is really sensible, and will take care of Dad, so good."

An An pursed her lips, feeling that Uncle Tao's image suddenly became taller, and he was a little embarrassed to be praised.

***

Tao Rui and An An waited anxiously and with great anticipation. Finally, when Xiao Yichen pushed open the kitchen door, the aroma of the dishes wafted out from the open door.

Tao Rui took An An's hand and walked to the table as he wished. In addition to the sense of accomplishment in his heart, there was endless joy and satisfaction. This was a big step since he got close to his son.

Tao Rui felt that it was just around the corner for him to finally win his son's approval.

After Xiao Yichen brought the dishes to the table, he waited nervously for Tao Rui's comments.

Tao Rui could clearly feel Xiao Yichen's nervousness, even though he kept suppressing this nervousness, it still couldn't be concealed.

Xiao Yichen didn't overthink his ability to choose a big meal that he couldn't control at all, so the dishes he cooked were pretty homely.Clean and neat three dishes and one soup. The dishes are fried cola chicken wings, braised fish head with uneven color, and fish-flavored shredded pork with a fair appearance. The soup is a relatively clear mushroom soup, which smells pretty good of.

At least it was much better than Tao Rui expected.

Xiao Yichen saw that Tao Rui looked at his dishes very seriously, and his heart beat faster, and he pretended to be calm and explained: "I missed a bit tonight. The dishes don't look good on the surface, but the essence of a dish is not there. Appearance, but must be delicious, right?"

Tao Rui glanced at Xiao Yichen with a faint smile, not bothering to tear through Xiao Yichen's pretended calmness, and nodded, "You're right, delicious food is the most important thing."

As Tao Rui spoke, he tasted several dishes individually, as if he was a professional tasting dish.Xiao Yichen's heart seemed to be hoisted high by a rope in an instant, hanging in the air abruptly like that.

After tasting the taste, Tao Rui could feel that Xiao Yichen was very attentive, and the taste of the dishes was indeed not a big problem.It's just that the heat, cooking time, and seasoning are lacking.

Tao Rui considered his words, and Xiao Yichen took the opportunity to divert his attention to ease the tension.

An An stared at the chicken wings that Xiao Yichen had picked up in front of her. One side of the chicken wings was mushy. An An hesitated, and opened her mouth to bite the tip of the wings.

The chicken wings taste sweet and the meat is chewy.Xiao Yichen washed An An's hands, and An An grabbed the tip of the wing and gnawed it seriously. The chicken wings had less meat, so An An basically gnawed with all his strength.

Tao Rui glanced at An An who was fighting hard, and then commented: "Not bad."

Xiao Yichen's hanging heart hit the ground suddenly, and his tense nerves relaxed, then he looked at Tao Rui with dissatisfaction, "That's it?"

Tao Rui smiled and said, "What else do you want to hear?"

Xiao Yichen hesitated and said: "For example, the color and taste, it's too perfunctory for you to say that it's not bad."

"Want to hear my review?"

Xiao Yichen glanced at the dinner plate, and then resolutely refused after recognizing the reality: "You better shut up, I think it's not bad, it's pretty good, it proves that I'm doing okay at least."

Tao Rui was noncommittal, put aside the unfinished chicken bone in An An's hand, and gave An An the shredded meat that he thought was quite tasty.

Xiao Yichen probably cooks this dish often, and it tastes the best among several dishes.

After An An ate the shredded pork, Tao Rui spooned soup for him again, and said, "What do you want to eat tomorrow? You buy some good food, and I'll come and make it."

An An's eyes lit up suddenly when he heard Tao Rui's words, and the corners of his pursed lips gradually rose, revealing an expectation that could not be concealed.

Xiao Yichen had a panoramic view of An An's reaction, and looked at Tao Rui helplessly, "Do you know what it means to go from frugal to extravagant and difficult to go from extravagant to frugal? Now An An's taste has been taken care of by you."

Tao Ruihun said indifferently: "If you have a Diao, you can have a Diao. If An An wants to eat it in the future, Uncle Tao will make it for you."

An An's smile grew brighter.

Xiao Yichen looked at An An with jealousy and reluctance, and pretended to be low and wronged: "An An likes what Uncle Tao made, but doesn't like what Dad did. Dad feels so bad, Dad wants to cry."

Xiao Yichen sobbed pretendingly while speaking, and wiped the corners of his eyes carelessly with the back of his hand.

An'an suddenly panicked, holding on to the table with a pitiful look of being overwhelmed.

Tao Rui stared at Xiao Yichen with a conniving and helpless expression.

Xiao Yichen knew how to measure, so he let go as soon as he saw it, and said in a grievous and drawn-out tone: "Then does An An like Uncle Tao's or Dad's?"

An An didn't hesitate this time, and pointed her finger at Xiao Yichen decisively.

Xiao Yichen was instantly satisfied, turned his head and gave Tao Rui a provocative look, then approached An An and hugged him to coax him, saying that Dad was teasing you before.While Xiao Yichen said this, his expression also showed complacency and joy.

Although the taste of the dish was mediocre, the cola chicken wings were messed up.Tao Rui and An An still gave Xiao Yichen a lot of face, and almost cleaned up the dishes.

After the meal, Xiao Yichen packed up and went to wash the dishes. Tao Rui was good at cooking, but he really hated washing the dishes.Xiao Yichen had forced Tao Rui to wash before, but Tao Rui's dishwashing was really just washing dishes, and he would definitely not do things like washing pots and stoves.

Xiao Yichen couldn't see it, so he simply cleaned up by himself.

Tao Rui accompanied An An to watch TV for a while, when his cell phone rang suddenly, he spoke to An An, then got up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.

Xiao Yichen planted a few pots of cacti on the balcony. The cacti seemed to be of the type to fend for themselves. The soil inside was very dry, and the cacti were also dull, as if they had no energy at all.

After Tao Rui answered the phone, he turned around and saw Xiao Yichen walking out of the balcony while wiping his hands.

Xiao Yichen said casually, "What are you doing?"

"Answer my mother's call," Tao Rui pointed at the cactus, "How did you raise it? It's so ugly that it's almost dead, and you can raise such a stubborn cactus like this."

Xiao Yichen glanced at the cactus, and said innocently: "I've raised it well. It's sunny here, and it can also receive rain. What did your mother say? Tell you to go home for dinner?"

"Still going home for dinner, how old are you, student Xiao Yichen," Tao Rui said teasingly, and then continued, "My mother asked me where I was, and I said I was at your house, so she asked me to ask when you were free. Please come to my house for dinner."

Xiao Yichen was taken aback for a moment, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and he said sadly with a downcast face: "Isn't it, your mother really said that?"

Tao Rui looked at Xiao Yichen with great interest, "Really, why should I lie to you?"

Xiao Yichen was speechless immediately, "You can say where you want, why say you are at my house."

"Honesty is a good quality."

"Hey, don't you tell too many lies? Now you want to pretend to be honest!"

"My mother really invited you. When are you free? National Day or next weekend?"

Xiao Yichen was still in a panic, the news was so sudden that he couldn't react, "...Why did your mother invite me?"

"Who knows," Tao Rui wrote lightly, "My mother is so hospitable, she also invited Yang Ying and the others."

"But auntie, auntie, she knows our previous relationship..."

Tao Rui said calmly: "Don't think too much, my mother is just a warm person, and she also likes children."

Xiao Yichen said in a daze, "Okay, I... Let me think about it, you delay for me first, don't let auntie think I'm rude."

For some reason, Xiao Yichen cared a lot about Tao Rui's mother's opinion of him.

Tao Rui nodded and told Xiao Yichen to think about it first.He also said that his parents are actually quite nice, let Xiao Yichen go to have a meal like a friend, don't worry too much.

But if Xiao Yichen really didn't want to go, he refused for Xiao Yichen.

Xiao Yichen's mood was complicated, and he felt that Tao Rui's tone seemed to hope that he would eat together.

He couldn't figure out what Tao Rui was thinking, and didn't know how to respond for a while.

Tao Rui didn't want to force Xiao Yichen to make a decision, so he changed the subject and tried to ease the atmosphere: "Is An An getting better recently?"

Xiao Yichen turned his head to look at Tao Rui, couldn't hide his surprise and said, "Can you see it?"

Tao Rui stared at An An who was sitting obediently through the glass, and murmured: "Yes, An An used to seldom talk to others except you, but now he seems to try to listen to what others say, and occasionally responds. "

Xiao Yichen said in a very good mood: "Well, Professor Li also said that An An has improved, and he even talked to me specifically, asking me if there is any opportunity. I thought about it, and it seems that An An's improvement began when he was kidnapped. After that, An An will be able to communicate much better than before."

Xiao Yichen was aware of An An's abnormal behavior after he was kidnapped. At first, he was a little worried, but later this worry was gradually diluted with An An's normal performance.

Later, Xiao Yichen clearly noticed An An's improvement.Although this change was only very slight, it was still enough to make Xiao Yichen feel ecstatic.

This is also a blessing in disguise.
