The porridge in the kitchen was bubbling, Xia Lan was cooking seaweed rice on the chopping board, and in the box beside the chopping board were the fruits and spices, which she had planned to bring to the amusement park for Xiao Ze to eat.

”So sumptuous for breakfast?” A low and deep voice from behind startled Xia Lan.

”Good morning, Gourmet.” Xia Lan awkwardly greeted.

Xia Lan's heart was about to jump out of her chest. She really wanted to roar: Look at the pot, why are you so close to me? Your head is almost on her shoulder, and their faces are also extremely close.

As if he had sensed her nervousness, Gu Xi Jue seemed to become even more unhurried, as if he had done this on purpose.

He turned his head slightly, his lips two centimeters away from Xia Lan's face, and said softly: ”Purple Cuisine for breakfast?”

Xia Lan really wanted to run away, but she felt that if she ran too far, she would be laughed to death by him.

So, she forced herself to answer: ”The fruit and seaweed rice are for Xiao Ze to eat in an amusement park.”

”Hmm?” Unknowingly, Gu Xi Jue's voice had a special charm to it this morning.

”Today is the weekend, I promise Xiao Ze, I will take him to the amusement park.” Xia Lan explained.

Gu Xi Jue did not say anything, and only nodded silently.

During breakfast, he did not say anything, but only looked at Xiao Ze who had a satisfied expression, and Xia Lan who had her head lowered and was avoiding him like an ostrich.

”Auntie, the breakfast you made is so delicious.” Xiao Ze was snoring while drinking the porridge. This was already the second bowl.

”Isn't porridge the same?” Xia Lan smiled and helped him wipe the corner of her mouth.

”No, the porridge made by beautiful auntie is the most delicious.” No one had as much skill as Xiao Ze when it came to flattery.

Gu Xi Jue had observed their every move. Seeing Xia Lan using her hands to wipe away the filth at the corner of her mouth, his heart was slightly moved.

If you are not your own child, you will usually find it dirty.

As for Xia Lan, there wasn't even the slightest bit of disgust on her face. Instead, a doting smile hung on the corners of her mouth.

Those who didn't know would think that Xiao Ze was her child.

After the meal, Gu Xi Jue urged Gu Xiao Ze: ”Gu Xiao Ze, aren't we going to the amusement park? Why aren't you going to change your clothes?”

Xiao Ze was startled, he immediately stood up and saluted: ”Yes!”

Since he did not want to be alone with Gu Xi Jue, Xia Lan immediately got up to pack up. After putting the breakfast in his bag, he went back to the living room.

Seeing Xiao Ze's bag on the sofa, Xia Lan thought for a moment, then stuffed a bag of tissue paper inside. Seeing the cup in his bag, she stood up and went to the kitchen to fill it up with hot water.

She thought, after playing around for an entire day, Xiao Ze would definitely be thirsty.

Everything was ready, Xiao Ze still hadn't come down, so he was a little bored sitting there. She saw that the coffee table was a little messy, Xiao Ze's homework book, Gu Xi Jue's ashtray, and even the basic financial magazine.

He squatted down to pick them up without thinking.

Gu Xi Jue sat on the chair in the dining hall without moving, quietly staring at her as she cleaned up. This kind of scene had never happened before, the woman did not find it dirty or messy, he used a tissue to slowly wipe off the ashes on the table.

Looking at her from the side, he could see that she was extremely tranquil without the slightest impatience. Perhaps the morning sun was too bright for her to see, but she was as calm as a virgin.
