Ji Xiaoli wasn't a fool. She knew full well that her own mother had sold her out.
For a moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad. Her feelings were all jumbled up.
Was this something a real mother would do?
Just as she put down her phone, there came a knock on the door.
"Xiaoli, are you awake?"
"What's up?"
"Breakfast is almost ready. Come down and have a taste?"
Ji Xiaoli let out a sigh. Her mother knocked on the door right after she hung up the phone. If her mother hadn't been in touch with Zheng Nanfeng, she'd eat her own name backwards!
But since it was her own mother, what could Ji Xiaoli do but forgive her with a smile?
"Xiaoli?"
Zheng Nanfeng's voice came again. "I've prepared some things. They're right outside your door. Remember to use them later."
After that, Ji Xiaoli heard his footsteps gradually fade away.
She bit her lip and finally opened the door.
There was a small box outside, filled with all kinds of things. From brand - new clothes to toothpaste, toothbrushes, and shower gel, everything was there.
Ji Xiaoli's heart started pounding again.
This guy, how could he be so gentle...
She changed her clothes and went downstairs.
It was a single - person apartment, so the kitchen was transparent.
Ji Xiaoli could easily see Zheng Nanfeng bustling around in the kitchen. From time to time, he'd suck in air because of the heat.
At first, he was a bit clumsy, but slowly he got the hang of it.
She was stunned. She never thought that the great Young Master Zheng could cook by himself.
Hearing the footsteps, Zheng Nanfeng turned around. When he saw her, he brought over a plate of breakfast.
"Have a taste."
The rich aroma wafted over, making the food look extremely tempting.
Ji Xiaoli took another look. They were all the things she liked.
Suddenly, she felt a bit awkward. "Thank you."
"There's no need to be so polite."
Zheng Nanfeng was still wearing an apron, looking very domestic. "It's my honor to cook for my sugar daddy."
As he said this, he bowed.
Ji Xiaoli couldn't help laughing. "Then I really have to taste if it suits my taste. Otherwise, isn't it a waste for me to keep you?"
She took a bite and found it tasted great.
Damn it, how could he be so good at cooking too?
Zheng Nanfeng just had to lean over and whispered, "So, how does it taste? Is it good?"
This sudden closeness made Ji Xiaoli's heart skip a beat.
"Hey, don't get so close, okay?"
Zheng Nanfeng looked innocent. "What's wrong? I just want to know if it's delicious."
Aunt Wei had told him that suddenly closing the distance between them could help cultivate their relationship.
Ji Xiaoli glared at him and subconsciously picked up a piece of bread with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth. "Why don't you try it yourself?"
But as soon as she did this, both of them froze.
Ji Xiaoli groaned inwardly. Why did she do such an ambiguous thing?
She had just used this fork!
She immediately coughed. "Cough, sorry, it was just an accident."
After saying that, her face was burning red. She immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.
Zheng Nanfeng was also stunned for a moment, then he put on his signature charming smile. "Woman, you've successfully caught my attention."
"Pfft hahaha."
Ji Xiaoli couldn't help laughing. "What kind of stupid thing are you saying?"
Just as she was laughing, Zheng Nanfeng's face suddenly got closer.
Before she knew it, her cool lips were covered by another soft one.
Ji Xiaoli was shocked. Then she was pulled into his arms and he kissed her deeply.
This time, Zheng Nanfeng had improved a lot compared to last time, while Ji Xiaoli was still as inexperienced.
Her heart was beating faster and faster, her face was getting redder and redder. She could hardly catch her breath.
"Thank you for the treat."
Zheng Nanfeng knew when to stop. He showed a bright smile. "I think it tastes pretty good."
In a daze, Ji Xiaoli thought that the silly boy in front of her should have two horns on his head. He looked just like a demon tempting people's hearts.
Otherwise, why was her heart beating so out of control?
Zheng Nanfeng looked innocent, and there was even a glint of eagerness in his eyes.
Ji Xiaoli just tasted so good that he even wanted to do it again.
For this, he had to thank dear Aunt Wei again.
After a while, Ji Xiaoli came to her senses and glared at him fiercely.
Still feeling angry, she stood up and stamped on his foot hard.
She said coldly, "Don't ever do this again!"
But in Zheng Nanfeng's eyes, her so - called stern words were just like a coquettish act.
But thinking of Aunt Wei's instructions, he still pretended to be in great pain.
"Ouch, you're murdering your husband. It hurts so much!"
Looking at his exaggerated expression, Ji Xiaoli couldn't tell if he was really in pain or not.
"Did... did I really hurt you?"
Zheng Nanfeng nodded painfully. "It's not just pain. It's extremely painful. Only if Xiaoli gives me a kiss can it get better."
At first, Ji Xiaoli felt a bit guilty.
But when she heard the second half, her face turned cold.
Fine! He was really daring. He even dared to flirt with his sugar daddy!
She was going to teach him a lesson today.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Zheng Nanfeng didn't dare to make a sound. He just waited for her to calm down.
He apologized quickly, but he would never change.
As Aunt Wei said, this was a tactic.
During the days when Ji Xiaoli was recuperating at Zheng Nanfeng's place, she didn't know how many times this silly guy had stolen kisses from her.
The pair of little leather shoes that Zheng Nanfeng liked the most even had a mark from her stamping.
As soon as Ji Xiaoli recovered, the first thing she did was to move back to her own home.
Naturally, Zheng Nanfeng was reluctant, but he couldn't persuade Ji Xiaoli.
So he had to give up the chance to kiss her regretfully and busily helped her with everything.
When Wei Yanlan heard the news, she rushed back from the overseas resort.
When she came back, she brought a whole bunch of gifts. Holding the gifts, Ji Xiaoli couldn't say the words she originally wanted to say.
After all, she was her own mother. Parents' kindness was like a debt!
As soon as she came back, Wei Yanlan first asked about Ji Xiaoli's condition, then said indirectly, "By the way, Xiaoli, how have you been these days?"
Ji Xiaoli rubbed her temples. It was a bit hard for her to say.
Everything was fine. She enjoyed Zheng Nanfeng's attentive care, but the fact that he always wanted to steal kisses from her...
"Not bad, not bad."
Wei Yanlan's voice carried a bit of a smile. "So what do you think of Nanfeng as a young man?"
Ji Xiaoli shuddered. Her mother's tone made her feel a bit creepy.
"He's a nice guy. Why do you ask?"
Wei Yanlan lowered her voice a bit. "You silly girl. What I'm asking is, do you like him?"
"What?"
Ji Xiaoli was confused. "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Why did she sound like a matchmaker? It made Ji Xiaoli feel a bit nervous.
Wei Yanlan gave her a disapproving look. "Xiaoli, I'm an experienced person. I understand what's going on between you and Nanfeng."
"How about I arrange an engagement for you two?"
