“Then what do you want?” Ruan Yang raised her eyebrow, thinking that he couldn’t come up with anything.

Li Shaobin thought for a while and actually couldn’t think of anything. He had been quite satisfied for the past few days. “Mm. I haven’t thought of anything yet. Let’s take a rain check on it first. I’ll tell you when I think of one.”

“Fine. Go get changed.” Ruan Yang smiled as she pulled out a set of clothes for him.

…

Li Shaobin went out of town with Hu Zhi that day. On the way, he was still worried about leaving Ruan Yang alone at the Li Household, so not long after he left, he called her to ask how she was doing.

Throughout the day, he called her about five to six times. When he got back home at night, Ruan Yang was learning to cook from the chef in the kitchen.

She even made the sweet and sour fish and chicken stewed in mushrooms for dinner.

“Yangyang, forget that you cook for me at home. When you’re here, rest well and treat it like you’re here to play. Why must you cook in the kitchen?” Li Shaobin felt apologetic that she had to cook for his family. He wanted to be the only one to eat her cooking.

“My main objective is to learn how to cook,” Ruan Yang said excitedly. “The recipes I learn from books aren’t that authentic, after all. I have nothing to do anyway. It’s not bad to learn something I’m interested in.”

“This child is very virtuous.” Grandma Li was full of praise for her. “Ladies nowadays don’t even want to do any housework, but she likes to go into the kitchen and the desserts she makes are delicious too.”

Shen Liu said jokingly, “Grandma, you’re making me feel embarrassed of myself already.”

“You’re a lazy one.” Grandma Li smiled as she chided her.

“I’m just purely interested. If I wasn’t interested, I’d probably be like Sister-in-law,” Ruan Yang said.

“Sister Ruan Yang, the dishes you made are so delicious.” Li Xiaoxia was enjoying his food so much that he even had a grain of rice stuck at the corner of his mouth. “I’ve never had such delicious sweet and sour fish before. I want another bowl of rice.”

“Wow, this is Xiaoxia’s third bowl for the night,” He Mingshan said in shock.

Shen Liu smiled outwardly. “Indeed, the dishes his idol makes taste different. It doesn’t seem like you love sweet and sour fish that much usually.”

“You don’t know anything. It’s really good.” Li Xiaoxia rolled his eyes at her and scooped a few spoonfuls of chicken stewed in mushrooms.

Li Shaobin glared at him. “Hey, don’t eat so much. Leave some for me. You’ve almost finished it all.”

Li Xiaoxia ignored him. Li Xiaoxia used his chopsticks to take as much chicken meat as he could.

“Hey, the two of you—cut it out. All of us here want to eat too,” Li Congyang said angrily, but he was ignored. In no time at all, the chicken stewed in mushrooms was swept up cleanly by the Uncle and Nephew duo.

He Mingshan said, “I think I better get some fish. Otherwise, the sweet and sour fish will disappear soon.”

“Mom, you’re wise,” Shen Liu teased. “Ruan Yang, if you’re the one cooking every day, these two will probably end up as two fatsos.”

Ruan Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She didn’t see Li Shaobin eating so much when she cooked at home usually. However, it might’ve been because she made Guangdong cuisine in the past.

…

After dinner, the Uncle and Nephew duo lay on the couch from being too bloated. They each had three bowls of rice and their tummies were already sticking out.

Shen Liu pointed at Li Xiaoxia and said, “Stop lying around. Go do your homework right now and read for another half hour. You have to sleep before 10 pm.”

“Mom, you’re really a ruthless mom. You can’t even let your son relax for a minute.” Li Xiaoxia snorted. “But I have some math questions I don’t know how to do. Can I get Sister Ruan Yang to teach me?”

When Li Shaobin heard that, he was very unhappy. “Ruan Yang has to keep me company. Can’t you ask your mom?”

“My mom’s grades in math were worse than mine,” Li Xiaoxia said with a scoff. “Sister Ruan Yang agreed to teach me before dinner.”

Everyone watched as Ruan Yang nodded with a smile.

Shen Liu told Ruan Yang, “Math in school these days is pretty difficult. You…”

“Mom, Ruan Yang is a scholar. She graduated at the top of her school. You were the 10th from the bottom of the last class. You can’t compare to her.” Li Xiaoxia rolled his eyes at Shen Liu with disdain.

“You punk. You’re asking for a beating.” Shen Liu glared at him.

Li Xiaoxia ran upstairs while pulling Ruan Yang along.

Behind them, Shen Liu said, “Ruan Yang, you must watch him finish his homework properly. While you’re at it, help him check his work too.”

Li Shaobin was unhappy. “Sister-in-law, how could you get Ruan Yang to help Xiaoxia with his homework?”

“Didn’t Xiaoxia say just now that Ruan Yang is a scholar? None of us know how to solve the questions except for Ruan Yang. Just let her teach him for the time being. It just so happened that the tutor didn’t come today,” Shen Liu said with a smile. “You shouldn’t be so petty—we’re just taking up two hours of her time. Don’t disturb them.”

Grandma Li said with a smile, “Everyone in our family is only average in their studies other than Jinchi. Binbin is the worst of them all. I didn’t expect Ruan Yang to be good at studying. I hope that their child won’t be like Binbin when it comes to studying. If he’s like Ruan Yang, we might have a scholar in our Li Family who could attend Harvard or Cambridge.”

“What’s so great about Harvard and Cambridge?” Li Shaobin grumbled disapprovingly. “In this day and age, the only useful person is someone who can make money.”

…

At 9:30 pm, Shen Liu went upstairs to check on Li Xiaoxia’s homework. Her son, who would always procrastinate and take his sweet time, actually finished his homework obediently and correctly. He didn’t even make any spelling errors in his essay.

“Ruan Yang, it must’ve been really been hard on you.” Shen Liu hated to rush her son to finish his homework every day. It had been going on for years. Li Xiaoxia would only finish his homework when Shen Liu’s throat had gone dry from telling him to finish his homework quickly.

“It’s nothing. Xiaoxia is really obedient and smart so he’s really easy to teach,” Ruan Yang said with a smile.

Shen Liu looked at how relaxed Ruan Yang was and didn’t doubt that at all.

It seemed that if her son were to find a woman he liked in the future, he wouldn’t even think about his mom. How unfilial. He treated his mom and his idol worlds apart. “Sigh, if you were the one tutoring Xiaoxia, I reckon he wouldn’t have a problem going to Cambridge or Harvard.”

“Sister-in-law, stop joking.” Ruan Yang might’ve only spent a day with Shen Liu, but she felt that Shen Liu was quite a nice person. Sometimes, when she argued with Li Xiaoxia, it made her look quite childish and cute.

…

When she returned to their room, Li Shaobin was lying on the bed, flipping through the channels on the TV lazily. When he saw her enter, he said with a snort, “You still know that you have to come back to me? I thought you’d forgotten that you had a husband at home.”

Ruan Yang rolled her eyes. “I merely taught your nephew a few homework questions.”

“A few questions take more than an hour?” Li Xiaoxia said with a pout. “Li Xiaoxia, that punk, must’ve used some despicable means to make you stay.”

Seeing how he had started getting jealous over his nephew again, Ruan Yang decided to ignore him and went straight to get her clothes to prepare for her shower. Li Shaobin got up from the bed and followed her while he nagged. “Yangyang, don’t help Li Xiaoxia with his homework anymore. My sister-in-law doesn’t know how to do most of the questions. Once you start teaching him, their entire family will definitely pass the responsibility of teaching their son onto you.”

Ruan Yang found him funny. “Won’t your sister-in-law be angry at you for saying things like that?”

“It’s the truth.” Li Shaobin crossed his arms. “Also, in the future, don’t cook at our house so often. Most of your dishes were eaten by Li Xiaoxia. I barely had any.”

Ruan Yang was speechless. Sure, he barely had any. His bowl was filled with food that he snatched. “We’re just staying over for a few days. Can you not be so petty? Don’t be so petty.”

She repeated it before walking past him to enter the bathroom.

——————————

The two of them turned in early. For some reason, Ruan Yang actually dreamed of Xin Ziao.

In her dream, she wasn’t with Li Shaobin and Xin Ziao wasn’t married to Zhao Zhu either. She had left the entertainment industry and he had also left his family business for her. They went to Bergen in Norway to live together.

Xin Ziao worked at a local investment company while she worked at a pastry shop. The two of them would leave the house together at dawn and return together at dusk.

It was Saturday and Ruan Yang was still sound asleep when she was woken up.

When she opened her eyes, Xin Ziao was standing by the bed with a two-year-old girl in his arms. “Ruan Yang, get up quickly, didn’t we agree to go on a cruise today?”

Ruan Yang looked at Xin Ziao’s bright face then at the girl in his arms who looked a little like her and dazed out. She felt something was amiss. “Ziao, this child is…”

“Have you gone muddle-headed from sleeping too much? This is our child.” Xin Ziao tossed her some clothes on a chair.

She put on her clothes dumbfoundedly.

When she went downstairs, Xin Ziao had already prepared breakfast. It was milk with sandwiches. He was already finished eating his breakfast. The girl was sitting on his lap as she drank from her milk bottle.

Ruan Yang chewed slowly and finished her breakfast. Xin Ziao carried a large bag of things like snacks and clothes.

Ruan Yang was full of doubt. “Aren’t we just going for a couple of days? Why are you bringing so many things?”

“Just in case. I’m the one carrying it anyway.” Xin Ziao smiled as he lifted his handsome face.

Ruan Yang was stunned for a few seconds as she watched him smile.

At around 9 am, Ruan Yang carried her daughter while Xin Ziao carried the luggage as they walked towards the harbor. The three of them were taking a cruise on a white cruise ship with around four to five storeys. Suddenly, the ship blew its horn.

Ruan Yang stepped onto the cruise ship quickly. Xin Ziao put the luggage onboard the cruise ship but he was still standing on the stone pavement outside and hadn’t stepped on board.
