nOriginal and most updated translations are from volaretranslations.

nThe first thing Ning Xi did after returning home was taking a nap to restore her lost sleep.

n

n

nAfter she woke up, she went to the supermarket. She bought the ingredients and side dishes, including beer, for a hot pot.

nWith her first battle won, she was going to have a hot pot celebration at home!

nEating hotpot alone, it was as lonely as one could get…

nAt least she was already used to it after being more of a loner all this time.

n

n

nThere was a knock on the door right as she was about to start cooking.

nWho was visiting at this time?

nNing Xi became stunned as pulled the door open suspiciously.

nLu Tingxiao was standing outside the door dressed in a snappy western suit, with a dark outer coat.

n

n

nLittle bun was being carried in his arms while he was holding a colourful fruit basket.

nThis… What kind of strange combination is this?

n“Mr Lu?” Ning Xi swallowed in fright, “Why the surprise at this hour? Is there something the matter?”

nLu Tingxiao’s thin lips let out two words, “Sick visit.”

nSick visit?

nHe personally came to visit this late at night, even bringing little bun along?

n

n

nIt was only a small injury, she’s still alive and jumping……

n“Er, you’re being too polite, Mr Lu. Sorry about the mess, please come in” Ning Xi didn’t have time to react. She simply invited them in, flattered yet stunned. She speedily tidied up the whole room as she removed the junk from the couch and shoved the piles of clothing under the bed….

n“Sit anywhere you’d like, do you want to have something to drink? Is green tea or milk okay?” While keeping busy, Ning Xi was wracking her brains trying to guess why Lu Tingxiao had come. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to guess the reason no matter how much she tried since Lu Tingxiao’s train of thought was too deep

n“Sure.” Lu Tingxiao nodded with the expression of a commander replying to a soldier who had just reported on a military situation.

nNing Xi could only remain confused as she brewed a cup of tea for Lu Tingxiao and poured a cup of milk for little bun.

nLu Tingxiao was cramped awkwardly on the narrow sofa in the living room with little bun sitting by his side.

nThe father and son pair not only looked alike, but their expressions were also exactly the same.

nThey were expressionless.

n

n

nSilent.

nThe scene turned awkward.

nNing Xi was close to tears while seated opposite them.

nGeez, what were these two here for?

nAt this moment, gurgling sounds came from the pot. The air began to fill with an enticing spicy aroma.

nFor the sake of breaking the silence, Ning Xi casually asked, “So, have you guys had dinner yet? I was about to have a hotpot, do you want to eat together?”

nLu Tingxiao: “Okay.”

nLittle bun nodded.

nNing Xi: “…….”

nShe was only asking out of courtesy, were they trying to pick a fight by agreeing just like that?

nOne is a CEO, while the other is a little young master. They had probably tasted all sorts of delicacies before. Why did they run here to have a small shabby household hot pot with commoners like her?

nNing Xi felt a little embarrassed at the poor offerings.

nHowever, she had already spoken. So she could only bite the bullet and invite them to the dining table, adding two more pairs of chopsticks.

n

n

n“The soup base I bought is quite spicy, can you take spicy foods?” Ning Xi asked worriedly.

nLu Tingxiao: “Yes.”

nLittle bun nodded.

nOkay then……

nNing Xi brought the freshly washed ingredients over.

nLu Tingxiao did not eat much, he was cooking for them most of the time. On the other hand, little bun loved spicy food as much as she did. He still kept eating despite sticking out his tongue due to the spiciness.

nNing Xi finally got a little worried, “Is it bad for children to eat too much spice?”

nShe could not afford the consequences if anything happened to this little prince.

n“Not that delicate.” Lu Tingxiao thought her worries were unfounded.

nWith that, Ning Xi kept any other opinions to herself.

nThe silent cool-headed Lu Tingxiao suddenly took the initiative to speak up, “How was the audition?”

nNing Xi froze for a moment before reacting.

nShe replied, “It was fairly smooth, so I made a hotpot as a celebration today!”

nLu Tingxiao raised his glass, “Congratulations.”

nShe hadn’t really expected that Lu Tingxiao would be the first person to congratulate her…….
