Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Jingnan saw Song Ruyi playing with her phone. He sat down and asked unhappily, “You’re really busy. Would you die if you didn’t look at your phone for one second?”

Song Ruyi did not know why he suddenly spoke so harshly to her as if he had gotten up on the wrong side of his bed.

She had not provoked him at all, did she? Even if she did not invite him to the best hotpot restaurant in the city, he should not be so vicious.

He was too ungentlemanly. In the past, however, she had a good impression of him.

In front of Wanwan, Song Ruyi also tried to beautify Lu Jingnan’s image as a father. Except, she kept telling Wanwan that her biological father would not come back.

The simple explanation was that he had sacrificed his life and had passed away.

At that time, Song Ruyi told Wanwan the same thing as she told her family. It was also because she never thought that she would meet Lu Jingnan again.

The waiter came to serve the dishes, so Song Ruyi did not argue with Lu Jingnan.

Otherwise, she would have argued with him for sure.

Seeing that she did not refute, Lu Jingnan took it as a tacit agreement. He was even more displeased.

Song Ruyi was also displeased. When she was cooking the dishes, she did not care about what Lu Jingnan liked. Instead, she cooked whatever she wanted to eat.

Then, she scooped up whatever she wanted to eat.

Lu Jingnan watched her do everything. He opened two cans of Wanglaoji and placed one of them in front of her.

Subsequently, he elegantly picked up his chopsticks and picked up something to eat.

The two of them did not say much throughout the entire process.

They first focused on filling their stomachs.

Song Ruyi realized that she could not stand this spicy soup in the end. She had not planned to drink Wanglaoji, but in the end, she had no choice but to drink it.

It was so spicy that she was sweating. The long sleeves of her t-shirt were rolled up, but the person eating in front of her was still looking like a gentleman.

Most importantly, Lu Jingnan could eat spicy food. He could eat spicy food even more than she could.

It was so unfair.

“What are you looking at me for? Are you done eating?” Lu Jingnan asked the moment Song Ruyi looked at him.

At the same time, he put down his chopsticks.

The food tasted average, but perhaps it was because they ate together and that the food was not so unappetizing, he ate quite a lot.

He had saved some space in his stomach for lunch. Otherwise, he would not have eaten so much given how picky he was.

“I’m almost done.” Song Ruyi nodded. There were still some cooked meat and vegetables in the pot. There was also a plate of spicy beef and a plate of brains that had not been cooked yet.

Song Ruyi wanted to rest for a while before she continued to eat.

“Me too.” Lu Jingnan wiped his mouth.

“Then do you want to eat some fruits? I’ll get the waiter to bring the fruit plate over.” Song Ruyi intended to do her duty as the host.

The fruit plate was a gift anyway. It would be a waste if she did not want it.

“If you want to eat them, you can order them. “Lu Jingnan did not refuse.

Song Ruyi asked for the fruit plate.

The fruit plate was served very quickly. They were all inexpensive seasonal fruits, but they were fresh.

Song Ruyi ate two slices of oranges. They were quite sweet.

Lu Jingnan did not eat a single one. When Song Ruyi asked him, he shook his head and said no.

“When are your days off?” Lu Jingnan suddenly asked.

Song Ruyi’s heart skipped a beat. She thought that this meal would probably be the last meal they had together in their lives. After they finished eating, she thought that they would go their separate ways.

Nonetheless, when Lu Jingnan asked this question, Song Ruyi felt that things were not that simple.

‘Could it be that he wants me to be his tour guide and accompany him around the city?

‘God, please spare me.’

“I’m asking you a question. Why are you dazed?” Lu Jingnan urged. ‘Her demented look is annoying.’

“I have no days off, ” Song Ruyi answered directly.

“How can that be?” Lu Jingnan did not believe it. A boss would always give days off to people who worked part-time.

“It’s true. I’m not lying to you. I work part-time in the restaurant during the day from Monday to Friday, then I teach my students on Saturday and Sunday, so I really don’t have time.”

Song Ruyi was telling the truth. She was raising her child alone. She had to work hard to give Wanwan what other people’s children, who had both parents, had.

Lu Jingnan glared at her. “If you’re so busy, how do you spend time with your daughter?”

He did not believe that Song Ruyi had no free time at all. She was obviously afraid that he would take up her time.

“My daughter is very obedient. She rarely disturbs me and always helps me, ” Song Ruyi said.

Lu Jingnan did not have to worry about how she spent time with her daughter. In any case, she had arranged her time well.

She did not need to specifically explain to him that the drawing classes on weekends were supposed to start after this year. Fortunately, the enrollment was full before the new year.

Previously, most of her time was spent with her daughter. She only applied to work part-time at a restaurant after Wanwan was one and a half years old.

“Ha, you’re really a good mother. You let such a young child sleep and eat in the open with you, ” Lu Jingnan said sarcastically.

“You’re not her, so how do you know what makes her happy?”

Song Ruyi retorted directly.

She felt that Lu Jingnan was worried about the two of them for nothing. Her days were fulfilling, and she was very happy.

Wanwan could be with her every day. She was also elated. She delivered food and saw many people. Wanwan was also cheerful and generous.

Moreover, in September this year, Wanwan would be able to attend kindergarten. By then, Song Ruyi would be more relaxed.

“What about the child’s father?” Lu Jingnan continued to ask.

“Mr. Lu, you ask too many questions.” Song Ruyi directly refused to answer. “If you don’t want to eat, I’ll pay the bill now. I still have to pick up my daughter before 9:00 pm.”

Song Ruyi used Wanwan as a cop-out.

As soon as Song Ruyi finished, her phone rang. It was Chen Jing who called. Song Ruyi had just picked up when Chen Jing’s words slapped her in the face.

“Big Sister, don’t come to pick up Wanwan later. She said she wants to sleep with me.” Chen Jing tried to persuade the little beauty to sleep with her for a long time. As soon as she succeeded in persuading her, she called Song Ruyi to tell her the good news.

Song Ruyi’s phone was indeed a broken phone. The speaker was very loud. Every word that Chen Jing said was heard by Lu Jingnan.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly. He continued to glare at Song Ruyi with a hint of sarcasm.

‘Didn’t she want to use the child as an excuse?

‘Let’s see what excuse she can come up with after the call.’

“Mommy, I’m not going home. I’m going to have a drink with Little Auntie and the others this weekend. Come pick me up after your lessons on Sunday. Bye, Mommy.”

“Did you hear that? We won’t bother you on your date then. Bye…” Song Ruyi did not even get to say a word before the call was hung up.

She just stared.

‘What makes her think that I’m on a date?’

Song Ruyi had only come to get her phone. She had made that very clear to Chen Jing before. Why did she have to misunderstand?

What was more, Lu Jingnan heard it. Song Ruyi wanted to hide in a hole.
