Unfortunately, the aunt who was cooking had to ask for sick leave temporarily, which was unexpected by Xia Lerong.

Since she took the initiative to invite the guests to her home, this dinner still has to be eaten, Xia Lerong simply proposed to solve it outside.

"What do you two want to eat tonight?" She took out her mobile phone and asked, ready to book a table online at any time.

"I think my cooking skills are still good, why don't you let me cook a simple home-cooked meal? This will save trouble."

Xiang Mingqiu rolled up his sleeves, and without waiting for Xia Lerong's next response, he walked towards the kitchen.

He swiftly found pots and pans from the cabinet and began to clean them, and then took out various ingredients from the refrigerator to process before cooking.

"Auntie, can I turn on the air conditioner in the kitchen?"

Xia Lerong froze for a few seconds, then nodded lightly, "Mmm".

Duan Yan folded his arms and followed Xia Lerong, his gaze was fixed on the back figure in the kitchen, and he raised half of his brows: "Mom, you invite him to come back for dinner, and you want him to cook for you?"

"He did it himself." Xia Lerong turned around and retorted.

As if a little dissatisfied, she began to roll up her sleeves as she spoke: "It's not just cooking, my wife can do it too, don't you kid look down on me."

Seeing that she was about to step into the kitchen with one foot, Duan Yan was startled, and quickly reached out to grab Xia Lerong's arm, pulling her back.

Even if it was a mother and son, he didn't show any mercy: "Farewell, if you cook, the kitchen at home will be ruined."

Xia Lerong's cooking skills are not good, but her sabotage skills are quite good.

In Duan Yan's impression, the last time my mother cooked was five years ago.

The aunt who was cooking happened to ask for leave that day, so Xia Lerong cooked some oatmeal by herself for lunch, but in the end the whole kitchen was burned down. Duan Yan still hasn't figured out how she did it.

Duan Yan had nothing to do to help, he could only help Xiang Mingqiu to bring the prepared meals to the dining table outside.

"Your kitchen is also equipped with automatic fire extinguishing equipment, which is very particular." Xiang Mingqiu hung the cleaned rag on the drying rack by the wall.

Duan Yan didn't reveal the embarrassing deeds of his mother in the past, and said lightly: "Be prepared."

"I don't know what my aunt usually likes to eat. Please forgive me if the food I cook doesn't suit my taste."

Xiang Mingqiu served Xia Lerong a bowl of tea tree mushroom stewed chicken soup, and then he pulled out the chair and sat down in his seat, officially starting.

Xia Lerong took a spoonful of soup, put it to her mouth and blew, and took a sip.

Then he picked up the chopsticks and tasted all the dishes on the table, such as steamed crispy meat in black bean sauce, perilla bone, stir-fried pork belly with ginger and spring onion, stuffed tofu and so on.

Although it is far from the level of a hotel chef, it is really good in terms of home cooking.

The dining table was a bit too quiet, and the three of them ate their own food.

Xia Lerong glanced at Xiang Mingqiu's seat from time to time, as a guest, the other party was not at all cautious, and even smiled and gave Duan Yan something to eat.

Duan Yan would stare at him every time, as if he didn't like the behavior of being picked up by others, but in the end he would still eat what Xiang Mingqiu had picked up.

Xiang Mingqiu sat directly under the lamp in the dining room, under the bright light, his complexion appeared fairer than usual.

Not only that, but Xia Lerong also noticed that his skin is very good.

If I remember correctly, he is also 30 this year. As a 30-year-old man, Xiang Mingqiu's skin is better than that of many women, which made Xia Lerong curious.

"Has Xiao Xiang done any maintenance for his skin?"

"I often take care of my skin." Xiang Mingqiu confessed, "And I also go for cosmetic surgery on a regular basis."

When it comes to beauty and skin care, Xia Lerong instantly became interested like a conditioned reflex.

Probably because of the face of the elders, it is not easy to show too much enthusiasm, and after pretending to be calm for about ten seconds, she asked unhurriedly: "Oh? What projects are you working on?"

"The regular ones are anti-aging products, such as Thermage. I have done it for the eyes, face and neck."

"I haven't dared to try it on my eyes. Wearing that eye shield makes my eyes feel uncomfortable."

"Actually, the eye Thermage is no different from other places. I feel that the effect is quite obvious after I do it. By the way, a friend of mine who has a good relationship runs a medical beauty clinic, and I can usually get the most powerful discount from her. Price, Auntie, you may not be short of that little discount money, but if you need it, I can introduce it to you, and the qualification documents are all available, absolutely formal."

It's not short of that little money, but Xia Lerong couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard that there was a discount.

She put on an unmoved expression, and asked casually, "Where did it open? What's the name of the store?"

The topic of the two of them went from the fifth-generation Thermage all the way to ultrasonic knife and thread embedding. Duan Yan, who was sitting next to him, was stunned for a while, let alone wanting to interrupt, he didn't even understand any of those terms.

Xiang Mingqiu said goodbye after dinner, and didn't plan to stay at Duan's house for a long time.

Seeing this, Duan Yan naturally stood up from his seat, and was about to go back to the kennel with Xiang Mingqiu, but was stopped by Xia Lerong: "It's been a long time since you came home, boy, just pat him after dinner. Leave your ass, and don't accompany my mother, I have loved you for so many years."

Duan Yan: "..."

Xiang Mingqiu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and gently pushed him towards Xia Lerong: "That's right, stay at home tonight and spend time with Auntie, I'll take a taxi back by myself."

After speaking, he changed his shoes and left the house.

The TV in the living room was playing the most popular variety show recently, Duan Yan looked over to Xia Lerong, and found that her attention was not on the TV screen either.

At this time, she was sitting idly on one side of the sofa, hugging a pillow in her arms, staring down at her mobile phone WeChat, chatting in detail about various project details with the person in charge of the beauty clinic recommended to Ming Qiu.

My mother's character, Duan Yan, is very clear. I don't think we can finish talking about this kind of thing all night. How can I use him to accompany me?

Duan Yan turned around and walked towards the stairs.

"Back to the room so soon?" Xia Lerong heard his footsteps going upstairs, raised her head and asked.

"It's hot, go take a shower first."

After returning to the room, Duan Yan immediately locked the door.

He walked quickly to the window and opened it. Without any hesitation, he jumped onto the longan tree outside the house, and then climbed the branches of the longan tree to the ground with his bare hands.

His movements are done in one go, this is his usual trick when he sneaked away from home and went wild when he was studying. After so many years, this technique is not unfamiliar.

After getting down from the tree to the ground, Duan Yan quickly slipped out of the house.

They came this way just now, so when they go back now, Akita Dog should also go this way.

He ran forward, his only thought at the moment was to catch up with the guy before he got into the car.

He ran all the way, and finally found the familiar figure on the side of the road outside the community.

"Xiang Mingqiu!" he shouted loudly.

The smoker standing by the side of the road turned around slowly when he heard the shout.

"Why did you run out? Miss me so soon?" He held a cigarette in his mouth, raised his chin slightly, and smiled at Duan Yan who was walking towards him.

Duan Yan didn't deny it, he walked up to Xiang Mingqiu step by step with panting breath.

At that moment, he clearly heard the rapid heartbeat of his left chest.

"Is your car here yet?"

"I haven't placed an order yet, I'll call the car after I smoke this one."

After a moment of silence, Duan Yan opened his mouth and replied in a deep voice, "It's sort of."

"What is it?"

"Answer your first question."

Without giving Xiang Mingqiu a chance to reply, he quickly changed the subject, and pointed to the traffic light 200 meters ahead: "Let's have a competition to see who gets there first, and the loser gets dessert... ..”

He didn't have time to finish his words, the next second, the person in front of him suddenly approached him and bit his lips.

When he came back to his senses again, Xiang Mingqiu had already run five or six meters away, what a fucking dog.
