Chapter 91

"Bad big brother." Xu Rou couldn't help but pout, looking at the pitiful small plate in her hand, and then, unable to resist the temptation, she sat on the sofa and ate very politely. Seeing her cautious and conflicted appearance, it was really hard not to laugh.

Watching Xu Rou eat carefully and with a look of ecstasy, Isabel couldn't hold back any longer. She immediately picked up a small piece of green pepper and shredded meat and put it in her mouth. Instantly, an indescribable sense of beauty overwhelmed her heart. As the food turned into a warm stream, she felt as if all the hairs on her body were standing up, making her shiver uncontrollably.

So comfortable, it reached the peak of comfort.

"Ah..."

This made Isabel also let out a soft moan, more lingering and soul-stirring than Xu Rou's. As for Aina, after eating, she was even more fiery than Isabel. Opening her red lips, she exclaimed, "Oh, oh... My God, it's so good."

With Xu Jianxing's keen hearing, he knew everything that was happening outside. Hearing such ambiguous sounds, his heart was stirred several times, and he had an impulse to transform into a werewolf.

Afterward.

Isabel and Aina, completely conquered by the delicious food, ate the green pepper and shredded meat in the small plate in just a few bites. At this moment, they had a bit of realization. No wonder Xu Jianxing had kicked them out; such a wonderful dish would probably make even an angel unable to resist and descend to earth.

The small plate in their hands was completely empty. Isabel and Aina's eyes, like those of lone wolves at night, were fixed on the green pepper and shredded meat still left in Xu Rou's plate.

At this moment, Xu Rou seemed to have some super sensing ability. When Isabel and Aina's gazes fell on her, the careful and cautious way she was picking up the green pepper and shredded meat from the plate suddenly sped up. In just a few moments, she had eaten everything clean, even licking the plate several times with her small tongue, not leaving a single drop of sauce.

At this point, she lifted her head and spread her hands, indicating that there was nothing left.

This made Isabel and Aina a bit awkward. Almost at the same time, the three of them looked at the kitchen door, their mouths watering, and their Adam's apples bobbing up and down.

After a short while, they felt uncomfortable all over. The three of them exchanged glances and then smiled understandingly, walking to the kitchen door and pressing their ears to listen to the sounds inside.

This made Xu Jianxing, who sensed their movements, find it quite amusing. However, he didn't pay attention to them and continued to work busily with his hands.

A moment later.

Xu Rou couldn't help but speak up, "Brother, open the door. I promise I won't steal any more."

Xu Jianxing laughed heartily, "I can't really trust your promise. When you were little, I asked you to buy two popsicles, and you said you wouldn't eat them, but when you came back, there were only two sticks left."

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Xu Rou's face turned red with embarrassment, not expecting her brother to remember such an embarrassing incident. She stomped her foot.

"You did it, so I can talk about it." Xu Jianxing chuckled, then said, "Alright, little girl, I think Mom and Dad will be back in about half an hour. Just bear with it a bit longer, and clean up the living room."

"Okay." Hearing Xu Jianxing mention their parents, Xu Rou nodded, feeling a bit guilty. She hadn't realized that in her eagerness to eat, she had forgotten about her hardworking parents. But the food was really delicious.

Thinking about it, Xu Rou extended her small tongue and licked her lips.

As for Isabel and Aina, although they couldn't resist the temptation, as guests, they didn't say anything. They could only suppress their desire, but the more they suppressed it, the more they thought about it, like lovers suddenly separated, feeling an indescribable discomfort.

Even while helping Xu Rou clean the living room, they would occasionally glance at the kitchen door, hoping for a miracle, that the small old door would suddenly open, and they would see their beloved "lover" again.

The living room was not large, and there wasn't much to clean. Wiping the coffee table and laying a tablecloth was all it took.

After another twenty minutes or so.

Xu Rou and the others were practically unable to sit still, like three hungry cats, scratching their ears and rubbing their cheeks. Their eyes would look at the clock in the living room, then at the kitchen door, and then at the front door. They had never felt time pass so slowly.

"Click!"

Suddenly, a light click sounded at the front door, making their eyes light up. Xu Rou exclaimed, "Brother, it might be Mom and Dad."

As she spoke, she quickly went to the front door and opened it. Seeing the two middle-aged men and women outside, she called out happily, "Mom, Dad, Brother is back today."

Xu Jianxing's father, Xu Anlin, was in his early fifties, thin, but with a few strands of gray hair due to his hard work. The only good thing was that he maintained a good habit of exercising, so he didn't look too old. Xu Jianxing's mother, Yang Yulan, had a thin face that showed signs of aging. Standing together, Yang Yulan looked about five to six years older than Xu Anlin.

Not only because of the hard work, but mainly due to poor nutrition. Whenever their children were at home, they would provide the best food and drink, while they themselves would not eat or dress well. Sometimes, they would even cook a simple meal for themselves.

Xu Jianxing had noticed this situation when he came home before and had even gotten angry a few times. But his parents would say they didn't like to eat or had no appetite. Even when Xu Jianxing forced them, they would only take a few bites, which made Xu Jianxing feel like crying whenever he thought about it.

Perhaps this was a common trait among parents: father's love is like a mountain, and mother's love is like water. Father's love sometimes made Xu Jianxing feel suffocated, while mother's love was gentle and long-lasting, always touching his heart.

When Xu Anlin and Yang Yulan heard that their son was back, their bodies stiffened, and their slightly tired faces lit up with a smile. As they walked into the room, their eyes scanned around. When they saw Isabel and Aina, they were taken aback, not knowing why two beautiful foreign girls were in their home.

At the same time, Xu Jianxing was very excited and called out with deep emotion, "Mom, Dad, I'm in the kitchen, I'll be done soon, please wait a moment."

Yang Yulan suppressed her confusion and said with a hint of scolding, "You came back without giving us a heads-up. What are you doing in the kitchen? Why is the door closed?"

As she spoke, Yang Yulan pushed the kitchen door, but it wouldn't budge. Before she could think more, Xu Rou chimed in, "Mom, let me tell you, Brother is cooking in the kitchen. I had some earlier, and it was absolutely delicious."

Saying this, Xu Rou licked her lips again.

Seeing her like a little hungry cat, Yang Yulan didn't think much and gently tapped her nose, "You little thing, you came back and made your brother cook. That's not right."

Xu Rou pouted, "Mom, you're favoring boys over girls. Why can't Brother cook when he comes back? I think all the cooking at home should be done by Brother. You haven't tasted his cooking; otherwise, you wouldn't want to cook anymore."

"I don't have time for your nonsense." Yang Yulan laughed and scolded, then turned to Isabel and Aina, "Who are you?"

Isabel quickly stepped forward, showing her best smile and said politely, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt. My name is Isabel, and I'm Jianxing's friend. You can call me Isabel. The one next to me is Aina. We heard Jianxing was coming back to his hometown, and since we like the culture of Longguo and enjoy traveling, we came with him to Yingchuan. If we are a bother, I apologize in advance."

Hearing Isabel's fluent Mandarin, Yang Yulan completely believed her, but she was a bit puzzled about how her son knew these two Western girls. From their attire, it seemed they came from a good family, but she didn't think much about it and smiled, "No problem, we welcome foreign friends. As long as you don't mind the simplicity of our home."

"Aunt, how could I? I think your home, though small, is very warm and cozy. I really like this environment," Isabel smiled, feeling relieved. She had been worried that Xu Jianxing's parents might not like foreigners, even calling him a big liar in her mind.

"That's good. You sit down, and I'll go see how Jianxing is doing," Yang Yulan said with a smile and turned to walk to the kitchen.

Hearing this, Xu Rou and the others' eyes lit up, and they moved closer to the kitchen.

"Xiao Xing, open the door," Yang Yulan knocked on the door and scolded with a smile, "You, why are you cooking with the door closed? Are you afraid of being embarrassed or afraid someone will steal your secrets?"

Stealing secrets was just a joke from Yang Yulan; she knew her son's level.

"Coming, Mom."

As Xu Jianxing spoke, the last dish, braised grouper, was ready. He put the dish on a plate and walked to the door with a smile, opening it.

Seeing his mother's wrinkled forehead and gray hair, Xu Jianxing felt a mix of pain and excitement. His nose tingled, and he hugged Yang Yulan, "Mom, I miss you." (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to起点 and vote for it with recommendation tickets and monthly tickets.)
