What happened to her? It seems like she is unhappy with Lan Baobao.
Could it be because of Gu Feng?
Ah, Li Ran, what are you thinking? Gu Feng likes Baobao, and that's because Lan Baobao saved his life. Everything Gu Feng does now is just to repay Lan Baobao; everything else is not real. Only the gratitude is genuine!
Lan Baobao is already a mother of two children, and soon she will be the mother of a third child. How could she possibly be with Gu Feng?
Even if Gu Feng wanted to, his parents would not accept it.
Moreover, Ye Zixun would not divorce Lan Baobao.
Even if Lan Baobao wanted a divorce, as long as Ye Zixun was unwilling, they would not be able to divorce.
He has that contract that Lan Baobao once signed in his hands!
Li Xiaoran, how could you start doubting Lan Baobao and Gu Feng just because of Mu Jiao'er's words? You are being jealous of them! Li Xiaoran, you are such a fool! A super big fool!
"Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, are you going to eat? If you wait any longer, there won't be anyone to take care of you after it's finished!" Lan Baobao patted Li Ran's shoulder.
She suddenly came back to her senses and saw Lan Baobao's face magnified right in front of her.
There was no embellishment or pretentious expression at all.
She looked just like the Lan Baobao she used to know so well.
Yes, she has never changed.
Kind, pure, and a bit less sharp than the average person, she always appeared a bit foolish.
Perhaps, Lan Baobao always thought that Gu Feng was repaying a kindness, which is why he treated her so well.
Moreover, Gu Feng is Ye Zixun's friend; one should not deceive a friend's wife!
If Gu Feng were really to be with Lan Baobao, how could he face others?
Li Xiaoran, what exactly are you worried about?
"Xiao Xiao, if you're really not going to eat, then I won't hold back!"
Seeing Li Xiaoran lost in thought, Lan Baobao had already reached her chopsticks toward Li Xiaoran's plate.
This afternoon, to celebrate Mother Chen's arrival, Mother Zhang specially prepared Cod, one piece for each person.
Lan Baobao not only liked strong flavors but also enjoyed tender and delicious food.
Noticing that Li Xiaoran seemed off today, Lan Baobao didn't think much of it; after all, Li Xiaoran often acted strangely and absent-mindedly.
As soon as her chopsticks touched the fish, she was already excited to the point of drooling, her beautiful round eyes turning into crescent shapes.
Suddenly, she felt a pain in her hand.
"Ah!" Lan Baobao exclaimed innocently, looking at Li Xiaoran with her watery big eyes and pitifully said, "Xiao Xiao, it hurts! Can't you be a little gentler with me?"
"Hmph, I showed you mercy, so you have to be ruthless with my Cod!"
Li Xiaoran fiercely flicked Lan Baobao's hand with her chopsticks, leaving two pink marks on her skin.
Li Xiaoran stood up to grab another pair of chopsticks. After sitting down, she took out something from her pocket and handed it to Lan Baobao: "Take a look at this. These are the ten rules I wrote for you while we were in the car."
"For now, I've only thought of these ten. If I come up with more things to add after living with you for a while, I'll write them down!"
Lan Baobao took the note off her forehead and, while stuffing her mouth with sweet and sour pork, muttered: "Get up in the morning, brush your teeth, wash your face, and change clothes before eating. Hmm, this one is fine; I can accept it!"
"Keep reading!" Li Xiaoran had already started digging into her rice.
Lan Baobao completely missed the strange smile at the corner of Li Xiaoran's mouth as she continued reading and muttering: "You must listen to Li Xiaoran, no arguing, no interrupting, no resisting!?"
Lan Baobao raised her head in suspicion and said, "Xiao Xiao, what does this mean? Why should I listen to you? No arguing, no interrupting, no resisting!"
"That's obvious," Li Xiaoran replied with a matter-of-fact expression. "Think about it; you're quite forgetful, right?"
Without thinking, Lan Baobao nodded.
She really was a very forgetful person; that was an undeniable fact.
Even if Lan Baobao wanted to argue, she couldn't find a way to dispute Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran nodded and said, "And you're also quite scatterbrained, aren't you?"
"Well, that's true."
"And also, you always want to make decisions, but you never seem to make the right ones. You often mess things up and drag yourself and others down with you, right?"
"Yeah... it really seems that way!"
It was like that when she was working before.
Fortunately, at that time, Mu Jiangfeng helped her a little, so she didn't get scolded by the boss. But back then, because of her confused personality, her relationships with people in the company were generally not bad.
Lan Baobao's days were still quite comfortable.
Li Xiaoran finally said, "And you often get deceived by others. You see someone else's situation as pitiful and think it's genuine. I remember when we were in school, there were a few times you almost got tricked and ended up in a mess. Am I wrong?"
Lan Baobao shook her head and said, "You're not wrong; I... I really am easily deceived by others!"
Not just during school, but as an adult, the biggest con artists she encountered were Yan Momo and Pan Xinzi.
Then she met Ye Zixun, and it only got worse with Mu Jiao'er and Mu Jiangfeng.
The con artists she encountered before adulthood were just minor scammers; they weren't worth mentioning. After becoming an adult, the con artists she faced were all high-level scammers!
Lan Baobao smiled shyly and lowered her head, taking a few bites of plain rice.
Li Xiaoran continued eating while saying, "Look at you; you're clumsy, naive, and easily believe what others say. If no one comes out to help you solve those problems or make decisions, who knows? You might end up ruining this family!"
"Since I will be living here from now on, I hope this price can remain stable for a while! So, from now on, you must listen to me regarding anything about this home. No arguing, no objections, understood?"
Li Xiaoran shot her a commanding glance.
Lan Baobao was taken aback, nodding repeatedly, "Got it! I'll do as you say, I'll listen to you!"
"Good, now give me half of your Cod!"
"Huh?" Lan Baobao's brows instantly twisted into an unflattering shape as she asked in confusion, "Why do I have to give you half of my Cod?"
Li Xiaoran's expression changed immediately; she looked at her seriously and pointed to the second line on the paper. "Did you forget everything you just said? When it comes to matters of this home, you must listen to me. No arguing, no objections. Are you already starting to backtrack? Where's your resolve?"
"Baby, you have to keep your word. You can't be untrustworthy!"
"I... I understand now!"
Lan Baobao pushed her Cod plate over, watching Li Xiaoran with longing as she took half of her Cod away. It felt like a knife was twisting in her heart, making it bleed.
Li Xiaoran said earnestly, "I'm doing this for your own good. The fat content in Cod is very high. If you gain weight like a pig after the baby is born, how will that be?"
"Um... that won't do!"
"Exactly! If you get as fat as a pig, you'll face many restrictions when eating in the future. So, to spare you that suffering, I need to start limiting your fat intake now. I'm doing this for your own good."
"Xiao Xiao, you're so nice!"
Lan Baobao gave Li Xiaoran a very warm hug.
Food is the second most important thing in her life.
The first important thing is children, and the second is food.
Being able to place food after children in importance shows just how significant these foods are to her.
Lan Baobao certainly didn't want to go through the long period after giving birth without being able to eat delicious things.
Gu Feng was at a loss for words.
Is cod really that fatty? Who tested this?
Li Xiaoran clearly just wanted to share a little more of her food with Lan Baobao.
However, Lan Baobao really believed this matter.
What a truly adorable fool!
"As long as you know I'm good, that's enough. Hurry up and eat!"
Li Xiaoran generously shared the remaining portion with Lan Baobao.
A large piece of cod instantly became this small amount, and Lan Baobao still felt a bit heartbroken about it.
However, after a while, her heartache was quickly overshadowed.
Because there was so much delicious food waiting for her, her favorite braised pork intestines and the slices of fish she loved as well, it was truly tempting and delicious!
Lan Baobao began to eat heartily, completely disregarding her image. The new arrival, Mother Chen, was a bit taken aback by her voraciousness.
The others appeared quite relaxed; they had long since gotten used to Lan Baobao's eating habits.
If she ever ate in a gentle and ladylike manner, that would truly be a sight to behold.
Li Xiaoran wiped the rice grains off her face and then, like an older sister or teacher, shared some "educational" advice with Lan Baobao. Moments later, they were bickering again.
Gu Feng, although unable to join the conversation, felt happy watching them playfully interact.
At this table, there were people from all walks of life, yet when they gathered together, everything felt very harmonious.
After lunch, the sun was warm. After basking in the sun on the balcony for a while, everyone became tired, especially Lan Baobao, whose eyelids drooped heavily. Unable to resist her fatigue any longer, she returned to bed to sleep.
Gu Feng glanced at the time; it was already afternoon.
He had spent the entire morning and most of noon here. Taking advantage of Lan Baobao's nap time, Gu Feng opened the door to leave the house.
