Every man willing to start a family dreams of that moment when, after a long day at work, he opens the door to find his wife has prepared a meal and comes over to give him a warm hug, making all the day's troubles disappear completely.
However, at this moment, Wei Yuan was faced with an even more luxurious welcome. When he opened the door, a soft and fragrant warmth rushed into his embrace, as if a koala had clung to him, instantly filling the air with the sweet scent of a young girl!
“Brother, you’re finally back!”
This warmth was not just a greeting or a hug; Wei Yuan also caught the aroma of delicious food. Everything seemed perfect, which made Wei Yuan feel quite pleased. However, the only discordant note was that hanging on him was a fifteen-year-old loli, who happened to be his distant cousin!
“Baby, you’ve grown up; you can’t do this anymore.” Wei Yuan gasped as she tightened her grip around his neck.
Xie Yufei shyly burrowed deeper into Wei Yuan's embrace. “I just got excited seeing you, brother.”
Wei Yuan picked her up and pinched her chubby cheeks. “Even if you’re happy, you can’t act like this! You’re not a little girl anymore; aren’t you embarrassed?”
Xie Yufei pouted in dissatisfaction. “Brother, you used to say I wouldn’t grow up! Look at you still calling me baby!”
Wei Yuan was momentarily speechless by her retort and could only chuckle while making a silly face at her. Xie Yufei then burst into laughter and tugged at Wei Yuan. “Brother, you haven’t eaten yet, right? We’ve been waiting for you to eat together!”
“You all?”
Wei Yuan suddenly noticed that there were four dishes and a soup on the dining table. More importantly, Yang Ying and Han Ling were both sitting there. Since he moved into this house, everyone had been ordering takeout separately and had never had the chance to sit down together for a meal.
Wei Yuan walked over to take a look and pointed at a pot of Angelica Chicken Soup. “No way, did you make this?”
Yang Ying nodded and looked at Wei Yuan with a charming smile. “I also made the mashed potatoes with fresh meat and sweet and sour ribs!”
When Wei Yuan heard this, he picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of each dish into his mouth. Just a moment ago, he had frowned, feeling an ominous premonition about these two dishes, but he thought he should give Yang Ying some credit for finally cooking.
However, after chewing a few bites, he found it quite tasty, even delicious. He didn't expect that Yang Ying, who looked the least like a good housewife on the outside, was actually the best cook among them. If Yang Ying knew that Wei Yuan thought this way about her, she would probably immediately unleash her skills to attack Wei Yuan's weaknesses!
"This scrambled egg dish was made by Yufei, right?"
Wei Yuan pointed at a large plate of scrambled eggs. One part was fried eggs, but unfortunately, the yolks had all leaked out—quite a failure. The other part was tomato scrambled eggs, where the tomatoes and eggs were exaggeratedly mixed together; it was clear that the eggs had been overcooked—a failure among failures!
However, Wei Yuan wasn't foolish enough to speak his mind. No matter which girl had made this dish, he didn't want to discourage them.
Xie Yufei lowered her head in shame and admitted, "Okay, it's my fault."
Seeing her like this, Wei Yuan quickly took a piece of fried egg and put it in his mouth. It was bland and tasteless. Then he tried a piece of tomato scrambled egg; it was incredibly salty—clearly, she had added salt only after cooking, and all the salt had been sprinkled in one direction.
Still, Wei Yuan forced himself to say, "The presentation is average, but it tastes pretty good!"
"Really!" Upon hearing this, Xie Yufei's eyes sparkled as she stared at Wei Yuan.
Then she took a piece of tomato scrambled egg for herself and put it in her mouth. Three seconds later, Wei Yuan couldn't bear to watch anymore because she started coughing painfully. He quickly served her a bowl of black chicken soup for her to drink.
"Brother, you lied to me; it's so bad!" After catching her breath, Xie Yufei pouted angrily at Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "Who made these cola chicken wings?"
Xie Yufei first shook her head at him, which made Wei Yuan quite disappointed. This cousin really didn't know how to choose dishes. In fact, this dish was the easiest to make. First, clean the chicken wings by removing the tips, marinate them with seasonings for a few minutes, then boil them with soy sauce for over ten minutes, and finally add a can of cola and cook for a while longer.
At this moment, Yang Ying and Xie Yufei both turned their gazes toward Han Ling. She seemed to intentionally tilt her body slightly, presenting the side of her face that bore burn scars. At that moment, Wei Yuan noticed a hint of blush on her perfect profile. She even subtly hollowed out her mouth muscles, causing Wei Yuan to be captivated by the shallow dimple that appeared with her smile.
For someone who had never smiled before, a sudden smile could be quite surprising. Wei Yuan felt just that. From the very beginning of knowing Han Ling, she had presented herself as a very introverted person. However, after he had helped her out twice, things began to change.
Today was the first time she actively stepped out of the room, the first time she took the initiative to cook, and even the first time she showed a shy smile. Looking at her profile, Wei Yuan suddenly found her very beautiful. It was a feeling that was hard to describe in words; she exuded an image of grace and virtue, yet she was clearly not married!
But at this moment, Han Ling gave Wei Yuan this impression: she was a woman very suitable for being a wife—mature, elegant, serene, and generous!
What was he thinking? Wei Yuan quickly dismissed such thoughts.
Originally, Han Ling's half-sister Yuan Ziyi had been planning to use him as a catalyst to heal Han Ling's emotional wounds. Now he was developing this kind of illusion about Han Ling, which meant he was gradually falling into Yuan Ziyi's plan.
Of course, although Han Ling had taken the initiative to step out of the room, her dislike for conversation remained unchanged. To be more precise, the cola chicken wings she made were primarily to thank Wei Yuan. However, there was no escaping one issue: at this moment, Wei Yuan had already become the first man to enter her heart.
The four of them enjoyed their meal together. Although it was just some home-cooked dishes, there was still a warm feeling in the air. With a slight hint from Wei Yuan, Xie Yufei took on the role of catalyst and started chatting with Han Ling. It was evident that such a cute girl initiating conversation with Han Ling elicited a positive response from her.
Xie Yufei began talking about her life at school and then shared childhood stories with Wei Yuan. Watching this exquisitely cute Loli chatter away with Han Ling, the content became less important; her lively big eyes seemed to speak volumes and were incredibly endearing.
"Back then, whenever someone bullied me, it was always my brother who stood up for me. With my brother by my side, I wasn't afraid of anything!"
Xie Yufei nestled into Wei Yuan's embrace again as Han Ling looked at her and smiled once more.
After this meal, the happiest person was none other than Wei Yuan. Sitting at the same table with him were three beautiful women, each with a distinct style. Although Han Ling had a burn on her face, her stunning profile was enough to take one's breath away, exuding elegance and grace. Yang Ying was charming and captivating, her eyes sparkling in a way that could mesmerize anyone. Adding to the mix was the adorable Loli, Xie Yufei, which made Wei Yuan's appetite soar!
With four dishes and a soup, how could they withstand the whirlwind attack from four people? Everything was quickly devoured. Initially, the four of them sat in the living room watching TV, but gradually Han Ling began to retreat to her room. Her room had an attached bathroom, so she naturally didn't need to fight for space with them outside.
Seizing this opportunity, Han Ling ran to her room to grab some clothes and entered the bathroom outside. After a while, Wei Yuan heard the sound of running water, and his mind immediately conjured up images of Yang Ying bathing, causing an evil smile to creep onto his face.
In fact, no matter how reserved or introverted a man may be, seeing someone as alluring as Yang Ying would inevitably lead to such thoughts in this environment. It might seem lewd, but it was definitely not vulgar!
At this moment, seeing Wei Yuan grinning foolishly, Xie Yufei picked up a laptop from the table beside the sofa. She had already logged into a game account.
"Where did you get that laptop?" Wei Yuan asked curiously.
Although Cousin Xie Ge's family did buy a computer, it was a desktop, certainly not this laptop. Xie Yufei replied, "Sister Han Ling lent it to me."
"When did you learn to play games?"
Wei Yuan noticed that Xie Yufei had logged into a turn-based game he used to play. He clearly remembered that his game ID back then was: Handsome Enough to Be Hacked!
Such a nickname seemed ridiculous now, but at that time, names with a rustic flavor were quite popular. Now Wei Yuan found that his cousin's ID was even more outrageous: Cosmic Super Beauty...
By nine o'clock, Wei Yuan was staring at the TV watching commercials. The occasional idol drama featuring older actors trying to appear youthful tested his patience and made him realize that he needed to work on himself; perhaps by enduring these cringe-worthy shows!
Watching idol dramas could drive one crazy. Wei Yuan suddenly snatched the laptop from his cousin and exclaimed, "Don't get addicted to games! Focus on your studies; it's important! Hurry up and take a shower and go to bed; you have school tomorrow!"
Xie Yufei stuck out her tongue at Wei Yuan and said, "I learned how to play games from you."
Wei Yuan was momentarily speechless, but Xie Yufei really did obediently go take a shower. Here, he couldn't help but notice once again that the older a woman got, the longer her shower time was.
Yang Ying took forty minutes to shower, and by the time it was Xie Yufei's turn, Wei Yuan had spent over an hour online before he finally saw her slowly coming out in a cute cartoon pajama set. He really couldn't understand what took so long to wash.
As a man, he would never comprehend this, since Wei Yuan only took five minutes to finish. Now that he had given the room to his cousin, he could only make do on the sofa for the night. In this cold atmosphere, Wei Yuan was forced to sleep in a thick coat. After checking that all the windows were securely closed, he had no choice but to head back to the room.
He couldn't skimp on the bedding, so when Wei Yuan moved in, he specifically bought two comforters and several blankets. Of course, the comforters were meant for his cousin, but at this moment, he had to grab two blankets to make do.
When he turned on the light to get a blanket, Xie Yufei suddenly jumped up from the bed in her cartoon pajamas and smiled as she pulled Wei Yuan's hand, saying, "Brother, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to take a blanket and sleep on the sofa."
Upon hearing this, Xie Yufei felt sorry and said, "Brother, why be so silly? You can just sleep here. Didn't we used to sleep together before?"
Just as Wei Yuan was about to explain to her, Xie Yufei shook his arm and said, "Brother, don't go! I'm scared of sleeping alone in the dark!"
