Chapter 407 - Questions (1/2)

”We? You certainly can't be talking about my brother. Gu Zhou is barely a teenager.”

”Age isn't commensurate with knowledge, Red. Just chill out.”

Amy gave him no reply. She just g.r.o.a.n.e.d and turned around to leave the room.

”I'm going to make breakfast now, I'll tell you when it's safe to come out.”

She was already walking out of the room so Amy didn't hear Edward mumble, ”Tell me when it's safe to come out...yeah right.”

He was already pulling on his suit pants which had miraculously landed somewhere on the bed amongst during the throes of s.e.x.u.a.l p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e.

There were three pans on the oven and each held something different.

This wasn't a normal breakfast table in the house, but for some reason (Edward), Amy was going all out that morning. They were actually having baked beans.

Usually, she reserved that for weekends or whenever Chynna slept over at the house.

From where he sat at the dining table in the middle of the kitchen, Gu Zhou was wide-eyed with wonder as he watched his sister whistle while she moved about to get his plate ready.

The kitchen was covered in the scent of processed food and anybody who stood close enough to see through the open kitchen window would get a whiff of it.

This was what always happened whenever Amy decided to grace the kitchen with her presence.

She was a maverick at hanging food ingredients, steady producing magic out of rawness.

This time, it was the sandwich she had made that had Gu Zhou's mouth watering.

He hadn't noticed the pile of buttered toasts somewhere on the counter when he had walked in from the bathroom.

Now, he watched with a watering mouth as his sister placed three of them on his plate. He frowned.

”Just three?”

Amy paused to look up at Gu Zhou. ”What?”

”You have a mighty stack of the bread and you give me just three?” Unbelievable. Gu Zhou couldn't just comprehend the action.

Amy never ate so much so he had been expecting more than half of the bread to be on his plate, but she hadn't even put up to a quarter.

Amy squinted her eyes at him for a minute before relenting and adding one more to the pile.

Gu Zhou followed the bread and grunted as it landed with a thud on the rest. He exchanged looks between his plate, Amy's face and the bigger pile.
