Chapter 404: Chapter 404: Pounce Directly on the Man
Seeing the two kids go to wash their hands, Lu Jinyang got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Actually, he had also noticed the aromas, and his previously unfelt hunger instantly became intense.
"What are you making?"
A man’s voice suddenly appeared in the kitchen, startling Xiao Qing greatly. She glared at Lu Jinyang irritably, "If you’re going to eat here next time, please don’t spook me by turning up out of nowhere in the kitchen, okay?"
He smiled, "As you say."
Xiao Qing: "..."
She made four portions, three in small bowls and one in a large bowl. The large bowl’s for Lu Jinyang.
To tell the truth, when Xiao Qing placed the big bowl of noodles in front of him, he couldn’t be happier. At least Xiao Qing had considered his appetite, right?
He had thought about several ways to get along with Xiao Qing and her children, but in the end, he chose this gradual approach.
If he had been domineering from the start, directly announced their relationship, and then bound her and her children to him, it wouldn’t be just hard for them to accept, but even he himself would find it difficult.
So, he chose to integrate into their lives first, letting them accept him and subtly revealing that they are a family of four, believing that this method would not just facilitate getting along, but also increase Xiao Qing’s sense of guilt.
He wanted her to feel a sense of guilt towards him.
After finishing the meal, Lu Jinyang finally understood why the two little ones could also finish such a big bowl of noodles.
The taste was indeed very good.
Xiao Qing had never made these noodles for him before; she must have learned how to make them in the recent years.
"Mommy, I’m done~"
"Mommy, I’m finished too."
Xiao Qing smiled, "Even if you want more, there’s no more left. Don’t eat too much, you’ll need to take a nap soon."
As soon as naptime was mentioned, the younger child immediately yawned, slipped off their shoes, and headed towards the bedroom, with Xiao Qing unable to call them back.
Seeing this, the older child also followed into the room and closed the door.
Xiao Qing was speechless, but Lu Jinyang said, "Let them be."
"But they have just finished eating."
"It’s okay, once or twice won’t have any impact."
Xiao Qing: "..." Must he speak to her in this manner?
She didn’t know what exactly this man was planning; he clearly knew that the twins were his children, yet not a word about it was spoken. He just lingered around them every day, making people who didn’t know any better think that she was unfaithful.
"Let me do it."
A hand took the bowl from her and started to do the dishes in the kitchen.
Xiao Qing was utterly shocked, she never expected someone of Lu Jinyang’s stature to do such a domestic chore.
Soon, the sound of water came from the kitchen.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Qing eventually started walking to the kitchen doorway and leaned against the wall, watching the man doing the dishes inside.
His figure was excellent, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, not an ounce of excess flesh; she was about 1.68 meters tall, but he was still a head taller than her. He had an aura about him when he walked, and even when doing work, doing the dishes which was a commonplace task took on an air of nobility in his hands...
Unbeknownst to her, Xiao Qing had thought a lot about this man. They had only met a few times, yet subconsciously she felt like she understood him well.
"Qingqing~"
"Ah?" Xiao Qing came back to her senses to see the man standing in front of her with a bowl. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she asked, "What is it?"
"Where should I place the bowl?"
"Oh, just give it to me."
Xiao Qing walked over, intending to take the bowl from his hands, but he shifted it to the side and her hand missed, causing her to lunge forward and directly into the man’s arms.
