Su Luo sent the kids to Gu Zhan. She rinsed her face with cold water to get rid of the blush on her face.

By the time she calmed down, the blush was also gone.

She went out to look for Gu Zhan. He had almost finished making breakfast. Gu Bei and Gu Xi were sitting by the table, holding their spoons and waiting.

Su Luo helped him set the table and bring out the food.

When Nanny Zhang came out to look for Gu Bei and Gu Xi, she saw this scene and felt comforted.

The two of them now looked like a normal couple. They supported each other, talked and laughed.

Gu Bei and Gu Xi smiled more often now and they were also more cheerful.

This was what a loving family should be like.

The house was once again bustling with activity.

Nanny Zhang didn’t want to disturb them. She was going to leave quietly and go back to her room, but Su Luo already saw her.

Su Luo called out to her, “Auntie Zhang, you’re up? I was just about to ask Xixi to get you. Come over and eat with us. Gu Zhan made lots of food; it smells so good.”

“I, I can eat later.”

Nanny Zhang hesitated and said.

Gu Zhan pulled her over. “This is the first time our whole family eat together. You ARE family. How can you leave?”

When she heard those words, the old nanny’s heart felt warm. Gu Zhan had always been a gentle child and didn’t speak out his feelings very often. Hearing him say she’s part of his family made her feel both surprised and happy.

The two children also came to drag her. They both liked Grandma Zhang a lot.

Nanny Zhang couldn’t say no anymore; she sat down and ate with them. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

To her surprise, Su Luo found Gu Zhan’s cooking skills were actually not bad, even compared to professional chefs.

She was going to ask Gu Zhan where he had learned to cook when she suddenly remembered that it was mentioned in the novel —

Gu Zhan overheard Su Luo and her friends chatting at a banquet, “I want to find a husband who can cook. That way, I can ask him to make a snack for me in the middle of the night.” After that, he went to learn cooking.

Su Luo’s good appetite suddenly disappeared. She felt envious towards Su Luo in the book.

Gu Zhan noticed her strange behavior and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Is the food not good?”

Su Luo quickly shook her head. “It’s really yummy; I like it a lot.”

“Yours is way better. I didn’t expect you to know how to cook.”

When he heard Su Luo praise him, a smile crept across his face.

“You’re too modest. Next time you can make sweet and sour pork ribs for me, which is my favorite.”

Su Luo ordered the dish right away. She wanted Gu Zhan to cook just for her, not for that mean Su Luo. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

Gu Bei was the first to ask. “Mommy, don’t you hate sour and sweet food the most?”

Gu Bei remembered Su Luo’s taste well. She liked eating light food, and she never touched food with rich flavors like sweet and sour pork ribs.

“People change. My taste changed. I like sweet and sour pork ribs now.”

Su Luo did it on purpose. She remembered that Su Luo in the novel liked light food, so she deliberately ordered a food that she probably would never touch, in order to draw a line between herself and the old Su Luo.

Gu Zhan misunderstood Su Luo and thought that she was hinting that she had changed. She no longer liked Lin Tian’s type and had begun to like man like him.

The thought made him so happy that even his eyebrows raised. He promised, “I’ll cook more for you then. Tell me what you want to eat. I’ll ask Auntie Zhang to do the shopping for me.”

Su Luo nodded happily; she got exactly what she wanted. “Sure, I’ll let you know.”

Even though for different reasons, they both felt satisfied.

Soon, it was time to get ready for the banquet. Su Luo changed into the evening gown that Gu Zhan had prepared and dressed herself up slightly. She looked herself in the mirror again; she was indeed very beautiful.

Su Luo looked about the same as Su Luo in the novel, therefore, there’s no problem for her to accept the face in the mirror.

The only difference was, the beauty in the mirror was wearing a luxurious gown with expensive jewelry. She looked different from the ordinary Su Luo in real life.

Gu Zhan entered hugging her from behind. He buried his head in her neck and stared at the mirror as he said, “Luo Luo, you’re so beautiful.”
