“I don’t have much going on, you don’t need to feel guilty. If you really feel bad about it, just eat more later.” Lu Tingshen knew what she meant, it was just half a day’s work missed, no big deal.

Fortunately, he was in H City, otherwise, if he were on a business trip, he wouldn’t be able to help her at all.

“Alright then!” Chengying didn’t say much more.

Lu Tingshen’s cooking skills weren’t very good, at least far behind Chengying’s father’s.

“I can only make a few simple home-cooked dishes, just eat whatever.” Lu Tingshen lived alone, usually eating simple meals, as he didn’t have any specific demands for food.

“No problem, it’s quite good. It’s just surprising that Uncle can cook too.”

“This chicken soup is specially made for you, have some.” Lu Tingshen learned this from the internet, and it was his first time making chicken soup.

“Oh!” Chengying didn’t mind chicken, so she drank it.

“Uncle, I’ve discovered you truly are a meticulous and caring good man! You’re the first man to rub my belly. Although, I’ve never had a stomachache before.” Chengying took a bite of the dish, “Though the taste isn’t great, it’s still pretty good, it has a homely flavor.”

Lu Tingshen: “You praise me like that, it rather makes me feel flattered.”

“Uncle, why don’t you just be my boyfriend?” Chengying said casually as she ate.

“Cough…” Lu Tingshen was really choked.

Finally recovering, he said: “What silly talk! You’re calling me Uncle, how can I be your boyfriend.”

“How weird, why wasn’t your first reaction a refusal?”

Chengying put down her bowl and chopsticks to look at him, “What’s wrong with calling you Uncle? You’re not blood-related to me. My brother calls you by name, treats you like a brother. When my mom first met my dad, she called him Uncle too!”

“Alright then, can I refuse now?” Lu Tingshen knew she was just joking, he didn’t take it seriously.

“Mm, you can.” Chengying was just speaking casually; naturally, she wouldn’t be upset.

She continued eating.

But Lu Tingshen, had a bit of a strange feeling inside.

When he returned to his room in the evening, he was pondering why his first reaction wasn’t to refuse when Chengying said he should be her boyfriend.

Thinking too much!

Lu Tingshen chuckled to himself, words from a child, he didn’t take them seriously, yet he was the one becoming concerned.

The next morning, when Chengying got up, she was quite energetic.

“You’re up, breakfast is ready, come eat! The buns are crab roe buns and vermicelli buns, the porridge is chicken porridge, without pork. There’s also a cup of brown sugar water, come drink it.” Lu Tingshen set up the bowls and utensils, calling Chengying over.

“Uncle, I think you might as well be my boyfriend! Look, you’re good-looking, have a good personality. You know how to make brown sugar water during a girl’s period, and even rub a girl’s belly, you really are the best boyfriend model.”

Chengying didn’t particularly like drinking brown sugar water, but having someone taking care of her like that was naturally comforting.

“I don’t make brown sugar water or rub bellies for girls, only for you.” Lu Tingshen said without much enthusiasm, those words almost painted him as if he were overly generous.

In fact, he hadn’t interacted much with other girls.
