The sky was dim, and Cheng Xiang was still in a beautiful sleep when he was awakened by a slight sound.
"Who?!" He quickly stood up and reached under the pillow with his hands.
"Shh it's me!"
"Mu, Mu Yu?"
After several days of forced practice, Cheng Xiang has basically adapted to this title.
"Um."
Because the curtains on one side of the living room were tightly closed, and it was still early in the day, the indoor light was poor. Cheng Xiang could barely see Mu Yu's figure walking to the kitchen, and quickly got up: "Are you hungry? I'll buy breakfast."
"No, no, I'll do it myself. You can continue to sleep."
"What do you want to eat? I'll buy it." Cheng Xiang quickly followed into the kitchen.
"Where's the rice? Don't we have rice at home?"
"The rice is here." Cheng Xiang hurriedly opened the cabinet, "Do you want to cook porridge?"
"Um."
"It's very troublesome to cook porridge, so why not buy it outside? The porridge at the breakfast shop at the entrance of the community is very thick."
"I'm afraid that thickeners are added to the porridge outside. Brother Yihan has a bad stomach and can't eat those miscellaneous things. How much water do you add to the porridge?"
Cheng Xiang scratched his head after hearing this: "I'm not sure about this. I haven't boiled it before. It's right to add more water. Or I can search on Baidu."
"Forget it, I'll just cook some noodles. Do you have any noodles?"
"Yes, yes." Cheng Xiang quickly took out a bag of unopened noodles from the cabinet, and then asked, "Can you cook noodles?"
Confidence suddenly appeared on Mu Yu's face: "I have never cooked porridge, but I am good at cooking noodles. When I was in college, I often cooked noodles in the dormitory. Are there any eggs, vegetables or something?"
She didn't tell Cheng Xiang that she used to cook tomatoes and egg noodles for Xin Yihan.
"There are eggs, no vegetables, and no meat. I'll go to the supermarket to buy some meat."
"No, no, no, brother Yihan has a bad stomach, so he has to eat as light a meal as possible for three meals a day. Hey! There are tomatoes!" Mu Yu took out a tomato from the refrigerator in surprise, "I can cook tomatoes and eggs for brother Yihan noodle."
"Shall I help you chop the tomatoes?"
"No, you can go to Lele's house and ask for two green onions for me."
"OK."
Cheng Xiang turned around and walked into the yard. When he came back, Mu Yu was already boiling water.
"Here comes the onion."
"I'll wash it. And water spinach leaves! So great!"
"Grandma Lele heard that you were going to cook noodles, so she specially picked a few tender vegetable leaves, saying that the color would look good with the noodles."
Mu Yu laughed after hearing this: "Grandma Lele is really thoughtful."
"Do you only eat noodles in the morning? Do you want me to buy something for breakfast?"
"No, just buy your own food." Mu Yu responded while busy.
"Oh." Cheng Xiang stood at the door of the kitchen for a few seconds before going to wash up. After washing, he changed clothes and went out.
Mu Yu cooked the noodles and found a beautiful large bowl from the kitchen cabinet to serve the noodles. He used chopsticks to carefully play with the tomatoes, eggs and vegetable leaves, then sprinkled the chopped green onions. When he felt satisfied, he was ready to call Xin Yihan. Unexpectedly, he had already gotten up and was washing up in the bathroom. She hurriedly walked over to express her concern: "Brother Yihan, is your injury better? Does it still hurt?"
"Much better, no more pain." Xin Yihan responded vaguely while brushing his teeth.
Because his right hand was injured, he had to use his left hand to brush his teeth. He looked very clumsy and made a mouthful of toothpaste foam. Mu Yu was amused by his appearance and couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing.
Xin Yihan also saw his embarrassing appearance in the mirror and couldn't help laughing. After brushing his teeth, he lowered his head and put his left hand on his face to wash his face.
Knowing that it was inconvenient for him to twist the towel with one hand, Mu Yu hurriedly squeezed in to get the towel: "Use the towel to wash your face, and I will twist it for you."
Xin Yihan wiped the water on his face with his hand and said thank you.
It's really not comfortable to wipe the water with a towel.
With Mu Yu's help, Xin Yihan washed his face.
She immediately led him into the restaurant: "I cooked tomato and egg noodles for you, your favorite."
Xin Yihan's steps froze when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down and said with a forced smile, "I smell the fragrance."
Mu Yu had been walking in front of him, so she didn't notice anything strange about him. She walked to the dining table, reached out to touch the bowl, and then gently opened the chair: "It's not hot anymore, you can eat."
"Thanks a lot."
"Why are you saying such outlandish things?" Mu Yu pretended to be unhappy and glared at him, "As if my hand was injured and you wouldn't take care of me like this."
Xin Yihan didn't say much, just sat down with a smile, picked up the chopsticks with her left hand and ate the noodles. Unexpectedly, she didn't know how to use chopsticks with her left hand, and the noodles couldn't be eaten in her mouth. Put down the chopsticks.
"Give me a spoon."
"good."
Mu Yu smiled and went into the kitchen to get a small spoon. She sat down next to him, put aside his hand that was reaching out to take the small spoon, picked up a few noodles with chopsticks and slowly put them into the small spoon. Put a small piece of egg on top, scoop out a little more soup, and then put the spoon in front of Xin Yihan.
"You can't eat noodles with a spoon, so I'll feed you."
"Here, don't bother, I'll do it myself."
"Can you eat it with one hand?"
"It's okay, just eat slowly." Xin Yihan said while reaching for the small spoon.
Mu Yu blocked his hand and asked, "Brother Yihan, let me ask you, who do you always think of me?"
Xin Yihan was stunned for a few seconds before responding: "Sister!"
"Then why are you and your sister so polite?"
"I… "
"Okay, the noodles will get cold if you grind them again. Aren't you afraid of getting stomach problems if you eat cold noodles?"
"this… "
"Stop talking about this and that. I, Brother Yihan, am not such a mother-in-law. Come on! Open your mouth! I won't be happy if you continue to babble!"
As a last resort, Xin Yihan had no choice but to obey and open her mouth. Seeing that he had finished a spoonful of noodles, she continued to use chopsticks to put the noodles into a small spoon, and at the same time smiled and praised him, "You're so good."
Xin Yihan was amused by her, rubbed the top of her head with his left hand, and said with an angry smile: "Smelly girl, do you really think that I am a kindergarten kid?"
Mu Yu chuckled: "It's great to be a child, with someone to care for you, someone to love you, and someone to feed you."
"Then when my brother's hand heals, I'll let you try being a child for a while. I don't care whether you like to eat or not. I'll feed everything into your mouth to see if you feel happy."
Mu Yu blurted out: "As long as it is fed by Brother Yihan, I like to eat anything."
After he finished speaking, he realized the abruptness of his words and immediately changed his words with a dry smile, "You don't even have to do anything to eat, how happy you are!"
Xin Yihan smiled and said: "Then I will tell Mr. Qin later and ask him to feed you every day."
When Qin Jinhuan was mentioned, Mu Yu's mood suddenly turned bad, and he didn't want Xin Yihan to see anything, so he immediately pretended to be indifferent and lowered his eyes.
Xin Yihan had caught the strangeness, put away his smile, and tried to ask: "Did you really come to Huacheng just to investigate the case?"
"Um."
"No other reason?"
"It's just for work. Come, let's eat some noodles."
He gently blocked her hand, his voice was still gentle, but his tone was a bit stern: "Xiaoyu, when did you learn to lie to brother?"
"I, I didn't lie!" Mu Yu argued anxiously, "I really only came to Huacheng to investigate the case!"
"What case do you need to come to Huacheng to investigate?"
"Just those four serial murder cases! We found out that the deceased in these cases were all in Hwaseong six years ago, so we came here to look for relevant clues. Team Rong and I are not the only ones here.
, Officer Liu and Officer Guo are here too! It's just that our troops were divided into two groups to investigate, so you didn't see them. "Mu Yu wanted to use facts to prove that he was not lying.
"Is this true?" Xin Yihan was still doubtful.
"Why do you think I should lie to you?" She tried her best not to show guilt when she said these words.
"I thought you and Mr. Qin had a conflict."
Mu Yu smiled dryly and asked, "Brother Yihan, why do you think so?"
"You were attacked by an unknown person last night. If it were normal, Mr. Qin would have been very nervous. But since last night, I haven't heard him call you to greet you, and I haven't seen you call him. A phone call to say everything is safe is not normal."
It turns out the problem lies here.
She hurriedly explained: "You also know that things have not gone well for Qingtian recently. The company's affairs are enough to upset him. I don't want to cause him any more trouble, so I told Cheng Xiang a long time ago not to hit Ah Huan at every turn. Report."
Xin Yihan was surprised: "Such a big thing happened last night, and Master Qin didn't know about it?"
"Well, when you were treating the wound in the hospital, I told Cheng Xiang and Captain Rong not to tell Ah Huan. Besides, I wasn't injured in the first place, and it wasn't a big deal. I just felt sorry for you. By the way, have you told Sister Xiaotian?"
"No. She was hit hard by the child's incident last time. Her physical and mental state have not been very good until now. She has been resting at home, so I try not to let her worry as much as possible."
When he mentioned the child, Mu Yu thought of her own child, and she felt uncomfortable for a moment, and silently put down the spoon and chopsticks.
Xin Yihan knew about her miscarriage due to a car accident. Seeing her like this, he knew that it aroused her sadness, so he sighed: "Your sister-in-law is just like you, she will be sad whenever she hears people mention the child. In fact, the truth is It’s already like this. There’s no point in being sad. The top priority is to take good care of your body. You are all so young. As long as your health is good, are you afraid that you won’t have the chance to have children?”
Then he joked, "I heard that childbirth is very painful. I'm afraid that if you have one, you won't dare to have a second child."
Not wanting him to worry, Mu Yu forced a smile and said, "Brother Yihan, how many children do you plan to have?"
"How many? One is enough. Any more will be too noisy and annoying."
"So do you want a boy or a girl?"
"boy."
Seeing that he mentioned the boy without thinking, Mu Yu made a face and laughed at him: "Brother Yihan still values boys over girls."
"I don't favor boys over girls," Xin Yihan answered her seriously, "I just think boys are stronger and more responsible than girls. In the future, if I die earlier than his mother, he can still take care of his mother for me and choose Take up the burden of life.”
"Bah, bah, bah, why can't you walk? I don't like to hear such unlucky words so early in the morning."
Xin Yihan was amused by her appearance and said with a smile: "You are a medical student, why are you superstitious?"
"It's not superstition, it's just that I don't like hearing this kind of thing."
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Eat noodles, eat noodles."
"Okay." Mu Yu continued to feed him noodles.
After feeding him the noodles, I got another bowl to eat.
After eating the noodles, she accompanied Xin Yihan for a walk in the small courtyard.
Next door, Lele and his grandma were choosing vegetables in the yard again. Seeing their mother-in-law and grandson looking at Xin Yihan curiously, Mu Yu quickly introduced her brother, who was afraid of causing misunderstanding, and came to see her specially.
"Oh, Aunt Mu Yu, why is your brother's hand injured? Is he a policeman? Did he hurt his hand while catching bad guys?" Lele grabbed the railing and asked a series of questions.
Mu Yu was about to answer when the doorbell rang. He only said that Cheng Xiang didn't bring the key. He said to Xin Yihan, "I'll open the door." He waved to Lele, then quickly walked into the house. When he opened the door, he saw who was coming. Not Cheng Xiang.
