Luosang gave a start, then said, “Did you really lie to me on purpose so I would eat that box of chocolate?”

“You wish.” Nian Junting snorted and said, “I don’t really remember what Nian Xi likes.”

Luosang felt a little speechless.

Then why did you block my way?

“Mr. Nian, could you please step aside? This bowl of sweet dumplings is just out of the pot and is boiling hot,” she said.

Nian Junting didn’t do what she said. Instead, he stared at her with a complicated look.

“Earlier, when you were making the sweet dumplings, why did you look at me in that way?” he asked.

“In what way?” The bowl of sweet dumplings was so hot, it stung Luosang’s fingers.

Nian Junting snorted again and responded, “Lovingly.”

Luosang didn’t know what to say.

“Don’t look at me so lovingly again. I’ll feel stressed,” he continued, like a proud peac.o.c.k. Then he turned and left.

Luosang wanted to pour the bowl of sweet dumpling soup all over his back.

‘Lunatic. You overthink everything!’

Soon, all the dishes were served. As it was a special festival, both Sister Lan and Luosang were invited to have dinner with Murong Cheng’s family.

Before the dinner started, Murong Cheng gave Luosang a thick red envelope and said to her, “Luosang, thank you for looking after my son these past few months. This is your salary.”

Luosang paused briefly. She didn’t count the money in the envelope, but she knew that it was roughly tens of thousands of yuan. “Mrs, Nian, it’s too much.”

“You deserve it, believe me.” Murong Cheng smiling patted the back of her hand and said, “Take it. You’ve been working hard, and this money is nothing to my family.”

“When has it been your position to pay my carer?” Nian Junting frowned unhappily.
