Chapter 1312 - Reunion (4) (1/2)
Yan Dong, who was standing outside, crashed into the table.
All kids had the same education, so how was she so intelligent?
Hearing the noise, little Gu Sihan stuck her head out of the kitchen and fixed her big bright eyes on Gu Mohan before saying in a soft voice, “Mommy, your ex-husband is here.”
Gu Mohan was speechless.
“Let’s start eating then.”
Tang Mo’er walked out with a few side dishes. There was braised pork trotters, grilled squid, fried eel, stir-fried string beans and some vegetables. The delicious smell of the food permeated the air and the food looked absolutely divine.
The enticing aroma of her cooking wafted into their nose, making them all salivate.
Gu Mohan suddenly felt hungry.
His deep, narrow eyes landed on Tang Mo’er’s soft features. She didn’t lift her head to meet his gaze and instead lowered as she set the dishes down.
His heart was in agony. He knew that he had made her angry and upset. But his heart hardened as he thought back to all the days of suffering and missing her these past three years.
At this moment, Tang Mo’er walked out with a few bowls of rice. Gu Mohan counted them discreetly. One bowl… two bowls… three bowls…
She had prepared a bowl of rice for him.
There was no way the two of them would be able to finish all the side dishes as well. She had obviously prepared all this food while considering his share.
She had done all this despite being upset at him. His heart softened as he thought of this.
Gu Mohan sat down.
Tang Mo’er set his bowl of rice down in front of him and said, “What are you sitting around for? Go get the chopsticks.”
As Gu Mohan lifted his head to look at her, it was only to be met with her bright, watery gaze on his face. Her eyes were lovely yet still tinged with anger and she looked like a wife ordering her husband around.
Gu Mohan felt his mouth go dry. He quickly got up to get the chopsticks.
As he headed back to the dining table, he heard Tang Mo’er speaking to Yan Dong. “Secretary Yan, I’ve prepared rice for you as well. I’m afraid it won’t taste better than the food you have at the hotel but these were made by crops I grew, so stay and try some.”
Tang Mo’er had prepared another bowl of rice.
Only then did Gu Mohan notice that there were four bowls of rice on the dining table.
Yan Dong was taken aback but flattered. In his opinion, the dishes looked very flavorful and more delicious than what they had at the hotel. He had already been salivating for quite a while.
Seeing Tang Mo’er take the rice personally to him, he quickly reached out and said with a laugh, “Madam, I’ll do it myself-”
Before he could even finish his sentence, Yan Dong felt a dark gaze land on him.
He lifted his head only to be greeted by the sight of Gu Mohan holding… three pairs of chopsticks.
Yan Dong froze, feeling as though the bowl of rice in his hand was a burning potato. “Madam, I already ate, so I won’t be eating here.”
Yan Dong quickly put down the bowl of rice and ran away without looking back.
Tang Mo’er was surprised and looked at him suspiciously. Didn’t he just say he hasn’t eaten yet? Why was he trying to escape?
At this moment, Gu Mohan walked over and said in a low voice, “Let’s eat.”
…
The three of them finished their meal and Tang Mo’er brought the dishes back into the kitchen to wash them. Little Gu Sihan followed behind her happily.
Gu Mohan was sitting on the sofa, going over the documents that Yan Dong had sent over. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t concentrate at all. All he could focus on was Tang Mo’er and their daughter’s laughter.
He could tell that the bright rascal loved her mother dearly.
It was often said that a daughter is closest to her mother and father’s heart but in this case, it was only half right.
It was clear that she was really close to her mother but clearly had different opinions about her father.
Tang Mo’er finished washing the dishes and walked out of the kitchen. She spotted Gu Mohan in the living room.
