Chapter 1301: Chapter 1321

For a moment, she felt completely thrown into chaos.

"Looks like I really shouldn’t stay here, I’ll come back to help later." Rong Xun saw she was so nervous and left first with a smile.

Thinking of how she’d just lost her composure, Qiao Xi’s face flushed bright red, and she hurriedly grabbed the scallions and ginger and started cooking.

Qiao Xi’s cooking skills were very good, because Qiao Xiaoling had always focused on developing her daughter, so she specifically had her learn cooking and illustration and things like that.

When four dishes and one soup were on the table, Rong Xun came over to help get the bowls and chopsticks and scoop the rice. The steaming food gave off a rich aroma that made your appetite flare up just looking at it.

Nuonuo was even happier, clapping her hands nonstop as she praised, "Daddy, the food Auntie makes is sooo good, I like it the most."

"You’re such a little glutton, there’s nothing you don’t like to eat. You need to thank Auntie for cooking for you." Rong Xun reminded his daughter; he couldn’t let her grow up ungrateful.

"Of course I thanked Auntie." Nuonuo said happily as she started eating with her spoon.

Qiao Xi first picked some food for the father and daughter, and just as she was about to ladle soup, Rong Xun hurried over and took the job.

She’d already done all the cooking and carried everything out; it was only right that he at least serve the soup.

"Don’t thank me, eating alone isn’t any fun. It’s livelier with more people. Besides, the company gave me such a nice place to live, I want to do something for you too." Qiao Xi said with a smile.

"You’ve earned it. You work hard and get good results, and you even help me take care of my daughter. It’s just one apartment—more than that would still be worth it." Rong Xun also picked some food for her.

"Daddy, the fish Auntie made is so good, it’s my favorite!" Nuonuo happily ate the fish.

"If you like it, eat more. Mr. Rong, you should eat too." Qiao Xi said as she picked some food for Rong Xun as well.

Then the three people started eating happily together. Rong Xun also felt that Qiao Xi’s cooking was really quite good, and asked, "How do you make it taste this good?"

"I studied culinary arts. When I was in college my mom had me learn it, and I liked it myself so I kept at it, then later I’ve always been exploring on my own." Qiao Xi explained.

"You’re actually pretty talented in a lot of things." Rong Xun said as he ate. To be honest, what she made really wasn’t any worse than the chef at home.

It was even a bit better than what the chef at home made.

"How is this a ’talent’? I can just cook and do flower arranging and stuff. When I was little I only focused on studying, I never learned any real talents."

"Has Nuonuo said what she wants to learn?" Rong Xun suddenly thought of how his daughter was basically being raised free-range at the moment; if she wanted to learn something, they could start now.

"I want to learn piano, dance, art, martial arts... let’s start with these for now." Nuonuo said seriously.

Qiao Xi was stunned by her. "Nuonuo, do you know what you’re saying? If you learn so many things, will you still have time to play?"

"Isn’t this playing? I want to learn them." Nuonuo kept talking without stopping eating; Auntie’s food was just too delicious!

"If you want to learn, I’ll have people arrange it." It was a good thing that his daughter wanted to learn more, of course he wouldn’t object. And what his daughter said was very true—at this early stage, kids learning these things is basically the teachers playing with them, using fun to nurture their interests.

Seeing that the father and daughter had made up their minds, Qiao Xi didn’t say anything more.

After eating, Qiao Xi and Rong Xun put the dishes and chopsticks into the dishwasher together. Once it was loaded, the two of them finally walked out of the kitchen.

Every time she was alone with Rong Xun, Qiao Xi always felt a bit ill at ease, yet deep down, she also hoped she could spend more time with him like this.
