A fresh fragrance wafted in, and her stomach growled twice. She was really a little hungry.

She threw back the quilt and slowly got out of bed. As she walked out of the bedroom, the smell became stronger and stronger.

When she walked downstairs, she saw a tall man standing busy in the kitchen.

His tall figure appeared in the kitchen, but there was no sense of incongruity.

From the neat movements of his hands, it can be seen that he seems to be very good at this. There are already several plates full of dishes on the table. Leng Ruofei was moved. A big CEO is actually cooking for her.

As if by telepathy, Xiao Yiyang suddenly turned around and met her watery eyes. The man was obviously stunned, then he put down the food in his hand and walked over with a smile: "Why don't you sleep a little longer? Are you hungry?"

Leng Ruofei was a little embarrassed by his question, and nodded randomly, letting him hold her hand and walk to the dining table. He motioned her to sit down, then served a bowl of crucian carp soup, placed it in front of her, put the spoon in her hand, and said, "Drink some soup first. I haven't made this soup for a long time. Try it and see if there is anything missing."

"These... were all made by you?" Leng Ruofei looked at the delicious dishes with some disbelief.

"Hehe, come and judge, how does it taste?"

Leng Ruofei took a sip of soup and frowned as she looked at Xiao Yiyang who was waiting on the side. The latter was waiting for her comments.

"It tastes really good! Yi Yang, if you don't become a president, you can really be a chef!" Leng Ruofei said with a smile, and did not forget to drink a few more sips. Before eating anything else, she drank a bowl of crucian carp soup.

When Xiao Yiyang's last dish was served, the doorbell rang.

He went to open the door and was greeted by the bustling Ms. Qin Lan.

Qin Lan rushed in, and without even looking at Xiao Yiyang whom she hadn't seen for several days, she ran in and looked for Leng Ruofei everywhere: "Fei'er? Fei'er? Where are you? How is she?"

When she saw Leng Ruofei sitting at the dining table and about to stand up, she rushed over and held Leng Ruofei's hand, asking her to sit down safely: "Fei'er, are you okay? It's all because of mom and dad. They made you sad, right? Look, you're so young, but you've suffered so much! Fei'er, are you feeling better now?"

Leng Ruofei's heart softened when she heard what she said, and her eyes became moist. Qin Lan was so kind, how happy she would be if she had such a mother!

"Mom, it's okay, I'm fine now. Don't worry. Come, have you eaten? Let's eat together." Leng Ruofei smiled and stopped Qin Lan to sit down, and was about to get up to get the dishes and chopsticks.

"Hey - Fei'er, sit down quickly, don't move, I'll do it. It's all mom's fault. Who has been taking care of you these days?" Qin Lan took out a pair of bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard. "From today on, mom will take care of you. Don't worry, I promise to make you plump and white."

Xiao Yiyang raised his lips, and was very curious about Qin Lan's attentiveness and guilt. He had never seen Qin Lan like this. When she married Su Kefan, she had no chance to show it. When she married Yu Yiran, although Qin Lan took good care of Yu Yiran, she seemed to have complained to him about Yu Yiran's emotional state when she was pregnant. Now...

"Okay, Mom, Fei'er is hungry, let her eat something good." Xiao Yiyang took the initiative to serve Leng Ruofei another bowl of crucian carp soup.

Qin Lan stared at the table full of delicious dishes with wide eyes, and glanced at Xiao Yiyang: "Second brother, did you make all these?"

Xiao Yiyang heard the sourness in her tone and responded calmly: "Xiao Xi did it, he just left."

Qin Lan's smile gradually widened: "I told you, your mother has never eaten the food you cooked."

Leng Ruofei looked at Xiao Yiyang's eyes in surprise, and quickly lowered his head to drink the soup. Only then did he understand why he didn't say that he made it. Even his mother didn't enjoy the treatment, but she enjoyed it. Should she be thankful?

Qin Lan looked at Leng Ruofei worriedly, feeling sad that Xiao Yiyang had kept it a secret from her. After Leng Ruofei left that day, she thought about it for a long time, and she felt conflicted. But judging from Fei'er's performance that day, she still liked this girl very much, but when she thought of her past identity, Qin Lan was unwilling to accept it.

In her eyes, her second son was a very good man, even though he had been married twice. She had thought about letting him find a woman, not getting married, as long as she could give birth to a descendant of the Xiao family. However, after she called Song Xiaoxue to ask about it, she kept thinking about it. She heard that Leng Ruofei had one side of the appendage removed because of the torsion of the ovarian cyst pedicle. This... would affect her future fertility. If she could no longer have children in the future, then their Xiao family... Qin Lan felt a chill down her spine when she thought about it.

Leng Ruofei raised her eyes and saw Qin Lan staring at her. She felt a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Auntie, you should eat something too."

Qin Lan kept shaking her head: "I've eaten. Look at you, you're sick and you didn't tell...Auntie. How can you survive without anyone to take care of you? Fei'er, you're not angry with me and his dad, are you?" Qin Lan's deliberately forced smile was a little stiff.

"No, auntie, my illness is quite urgent. Besides, I don't want to cause trouble to you and uncle. Yi Yang hired a nurse for me and she takes very good care of me. This is just a minor operation. My sister-in-law is also a skilled doctor. You see, I'm fine now." Leng Ruofei smiled, and his pale face was radiant.

"You didn't even tell me about this Xiaoxue. You treat me as an outsider, don't you?" Qin Lan saw that Leng Ruofei's bowl was empty, so she served her another bowl of crucian carp soup.

Leng Ruofei's stomach was already a little full. Looking at the crucian carp soup in front of him, he couldn't refuse it, so he had to use a spoon to stir the chopped green onions on the edge of the bowl.

Xiao Yiyang saw it and calmly took the bowl from her, saying, "How does it taste?" Then he put it to his lips and took a big sip, nodded, hummed, and put the bowl in front of himself.

Although this was not the first time that Xiao Yiyang had eaten her leftovers, she still felt a little uncomfortable, especially since Xiao Yiyang's mother was present. Her cheeks began to turn slightly red.

Xiao Yiyang kept picking up food for Leng Ruofei as if nothing had happened. Qin Lan looked at him and thought about what Xiao Ye said before she left: Mom, that woman has been with so many men and has ruined her body like that, and she still wants to rely on Brother Yiyang. Are you really willing to watch Brother Yiyang jump into the fire pit?

After dinner, Qin Lan took the initiative to wash the dishes. Xiao Yiyang did not let Leng Ruofei stop her and urged her to go upstairs to rest.

Leng Ruofei sat in the living room, looking at Xiao Yiyang who was concerned, then glanced at Qin Lan who was busy in the kitchen, and frowned slightly.

"I don't have to lie down all the time. Auntie is still busy, and it's not appropriate for me to go to the bedroom." Leng Ruofei said in a low voice, afraid that Qin Lan would hear it.

Xiao Yiyang glanced at her pale lips with his narrow eyes, his expression serious: "Which is more important, your body or your face?"

"This is not a matter of face..." Leng Ruofei was speechless. In fact, he didn't feel it when he was in the hospital, but after returning home, he was sweating all over. He just drank the soup, and his back was sweating. His shirt was wet and stuck to his back. His body was really weak, but...

Xiao Yiyang looked at her biting her lower lip, and his heartstrings were plucked again. He walked forward, tucked her scattered hair behind her ears, and said softly: "You just need to be yourself, and you don't need to please my family."

After saying that, he bent down and picked her up. Leng Ruofei didn't expect that Qin Lan was here, and he dared to act like this, so he quickly grabbed his arm and lowered his voice to stop him: "What are you doing? Put me down, let Auntie see it."

Xiao Yiyang's mouth corners slightly raised, but he ignored her whispered protest and carried her upstairs. His strong arms were placed under her armpits, so powerful that her heartbeat could not help but speed up.

Leng Ruofei's face was already red, she hid her face in Xiao Yiyang's chest, curled up her legs and clasped his arms, afraid that Qin Lan would see her. Her eyes were a little panicked, but more shy, which made Xiao Yiyang laugh.

Xiao Yiyang put Leng Ruofei on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and said, "You rest first. I'll go talk to Ms. Qin."

Leng Ruofei raised his drooping eyelids and fell into his dark eyes. His heart was moved and he quickly looked away: "I..."

Xiao Yiyang raised his eyebrows and stood there leisurely, one hand in his trouser pocket, looking handsome and sexy, waiting for her to continue.

"I don't want to trouble Auntie, can you please not let her stay to take care of me? That way... I will feel uncomfortable." Leng Ruofei knew that Xiao Yiyang had been taking care of her all this time, which would definitely affect her work. Just like he said, if she didn't go for a day, she would lose tens of millions. However, she really didn't want to trouble Qin Lan. She had no experience of living with elders, and she would feel very stressed if she had to let a strange elder take care of her. What's more, they had a bad quarrel before.

"Okay, I'll tell her." Xiao Yiyang agreed easily, "Any other instructions?"

Leng Ruofei felt a little petty after being teased by him: "What instructions? I'm just not used to it..."

"I understand. I don't want anyone to disturb us. Okay, have a good rest. I'll be back after I send Ms. Qin away. You don't have to follow her out. I'll tell her that you're tired and went to bed."

Leng Ruofei stared blankly at the bedroom door that Xiao Yiyang had closed, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. Did he have a plan in advance, or did he make the decision just because of her words "I don't want Qin Lan to take care of me"?

Qin Lan cleaned up the kitchen and came to the living room, where she saw Xiao Yiyang had already prepared tea and was sitting there, seemingly waiting for her.
