Huo Mian thought that since there had been no news from Rick in the past few days, he had returned to China, maybe...
"Rick is here, why didn't you tell me, husband, I didn't prepare anything." Huo Mian felt that it was too sudden.
"Let's eat whatever we have at home. Rick is a bit pressed for time. The helicopter will leave here in two hours..."
"Two hours, so anxious?" Huo Mian was startled.
Rick nodded, then took off his black coat and sat silently at the dining table.
Looking at the four meat and vegetable dishes, the corners of Rick's mouth rose.
"Huo Mian, did you do all this?" He looked at Huo Mian and smiled.
"Well, don't believe it?" Huo Mian joked.
"No, I believe it. Qin Chu said that your cooking skills are very good. It seems that I am very lucky today..." Rick came to the house casually and did not feel awkward or anything.
Huo Mian was a little surprised by his sudden arrival.
"Pudding and bean curd are not at home, what a pity..."
"Well, so you saved the New Year's gift..." Qin Chu deliberately joked.
"It sounds like I'm short of money..."
"Uh..." Huo Mian saw that Rick was actually joking. It was really...
"You guys sit down first, and I'll add some soup..." After saying that, Huo Mian hurried to the kitchen.
"No, Huo Mian, please stop being busy..."
"It's not busy. It'll be quick. Just wait for me."
After saying that, Huo Mian hurried into the kitchen.
In fact, it was a lie to say that adding a soup was a lie. Huo Mian wanted to inform Xixi.
Huo Mian picked up her phone and was about to make a call when she was held down by a pair of hands behind her.
She was startled and turned her head...
"You scared me to death..." Huo Mian breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Qin Chu, thinking that Rick had discovered him.
"You want to call Xixi?" Qin Chu asked with complicated eyes.
"Well, didn't you promise me that day? For the last time... help them." Huo Mian nodded.
"When he first came here, Rick repeatedly begged us not to create a chance for them to meet... I didn't want to be rude to my friend."
"Why...why did he say that?" Huo Mian was stunned.
"I don't know, anyway... I think Rick has his own difficulty. Since he doesn't want to see it, forget it... Although I promised you, if Rick knew that we did this, he might not be happy... After all, You can't force things like fate..." Qin Chu advised Huo Mian.
"But over there with Xixi..." Huo Mian still felt that that girl was quite pitiful.
I can't let go, even if I don't give him a chance to see Rick for the last time
"Wife... everyone has their own destiny. Some people may have always been deeply in love, but the relationship is shallow... Let's not embarrass Rick, and even if we meet, it may not change anything... Maybe Xixi will be more sad, why not just leave it like this Let's just forget about each other... What do you think?" Qin Chu knew that Huo Mian was a sensible person.
Some people just need to point it out. It doesn’t need to be so profound. It’s obvious that Huo Mian understands.
She struggled for a while, then nodded and put down the phone in her hand.
"I understand, husband... Then I'll make a soup and let's eat."
"Yes." Qin Chu nodded.
Huo Mian worked quickly and made seaweed and egg drop soup.
Because of the Spring Festival holiday, all the servants in the house were gone, and Huo Mian did everything herself.
The three of them sat across from each other, feeling a long-lost sense of tranquility.
During the dinner, Huo Mian chatted with them and asked, "Rick, you rarely eat Chinese food over there, right?"
