Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother

214 Escort Home
After Jiang Danhe determined the date of departure, he was unusually busy the entire day. However, he had yet to tell Xiaoguo and Zhuang Zhuang about it.

Jiang Danhe spent the entire day cutting grass and firewood. He also did not have time to eat and was kept busy with the miscellaneous matters at home.

In fact, Xiaoguo had more or less guessed it, but she still couldn’t quite accept it. From the moment they met, she knew that they would eventually part ways. She was just in denial.

Just like that, with one party not knowing how to broach the subject, he decided to drag it out. The other party had also guessed it, but she subconsciously avoided the subject. Jiang Danhe and Xiaoguo could sense each other’s emotions, but they just didn’t want to say it out loud.

Among the three of them, only Zhuang Zhuang was still in the dark. He kept pestering Jiang Danhe and followed him wherever he went.

At night, Xiaoguo tacitly agreed that Jiang Danhe and Zhuang Zhuang would sleep on the same bed.

“When are you leaving?”

After Xiaoguo coaxed Zhuang Zhuang to sleep, she turned to face Jiang Danhe. She knew that they would part eventually. Running away was not an option. One of them had to break the ice first.

“…” Jiang Danhe also faced her and said softly, “The day after tomorrow morning.”

Xiaoguo stopped breathing. “The day after tomorrow? That was fast…”

After a moment of silence, neither of them spoke.

“Tomorrow. I have some business to attend to.”

Jiang Danhe said.

“Okay.”

Xiaoguo didn’t ask what it was. She just replied okay softly. Then, she stroked the sleeping Zhuang Zhuang and said, “You have to tell Zhuang Zhuang about it.”

If Zhuang Zhuang knew that Jiang Danhe would be leaving the day after tomorrow, he would be so sad.

Jiang Danhe had thought of this too, so he nodded. “I will.”

Xiaoguo didn’t say anything and sighed softly in her heart. Farewells always come after reunions. Didn’t she understand that long ago? But why was she still feeling so terrible?

“Why did you come back? You made me feel terrible again.”

After saying that in a fit of pique, Xiaoguo turned around and rushed towards the wall. She immediately regretted saying such hurtful words. This was not what she meant to say.

Jiang Danhe was stunned when he heard this. He quietly got up and prepared to transfer Zhuang Zhuang to Xiaoguo’s room.

With her back facing him, Xiaoguo felt a little uncomfortable. Just as she was feeling vexed about what she had said, she heard a commotion behind her and was startled. Could Jiang Danhe be leaving because he was upset by those words?

Hence, Xiaoguo hurriedly got up and wanted to explain to him. However, just as she raised her arm, she saw a dark figure beside her. In the next instant, she was pulled back by an unknown force and was pressed tightly with her back against Jiang Danhe’s chest.

Jiang Danhe’s entire chest was wrapped firmly around Xiaoguo. He was holding her with so much strength that her breathing became rapid. Her face was flushed and her heart started racing.

“Jiang Danhe, I just said….”

“I know. That’s a lie.” Before Xiaoguo could finish speaking, Jiang Danhe stopped her.

Xiaoguo was touched. “So you know that I didn’t mean those words…”

Leaning tightly in his arms, Xiaoguo slowly fell asleep. She didn’t want to sleep at first as she wanted to talk to him, but her drowsiness got the better of her.

As soon as her head landed on the bed, Jiang Danhe felt it. He immediately relaxed his muscles so that she could sleep comfortably.

The next day, when Xiaoguo woke up, she did not see Jiang Danhe. When she turned around, she did not see Zhuang Zhuang either. Just as she was feeling puzzled, she saw the note by the pillow.

“Wifey Guo, you must have just woken up. Your husband has gone out with his son. They might not be back until noon. Don’t miss them too much. P.S I wanted to bring you along, but I didn’t expect you to sleep like a log, so I gave up eventually.”

Xiaoguo looked at the note and almost laughed out loud. What did he mean by wifey Guo? Hahahaha. Those who didn’t know better would think that she was a fruit.

But it was true that she slept very soundly. Xiaoguo touched her face and thought sheepishly. The weather had been chilly recently, and her hands and feet were always cold at night. But last night, she slept really well. Hugging him was like hugging a big furnace. It was so warm that the sheets were still warm when she woke up.

He had mentioned that they would not be back before noon, and they really did not come back. Xiaoguo ate alone and found the food tasteless. She casually took a few bites and was done with her lunch.

In the afternoon, Jiang Danhe brought Zhuang Zhuang back on a horse.

As soon as Zhuang Zhuang saw Xiaoguo, he excitedly told her what he had done with Jiang Danhe throughout the day. He also told her how it felt like to ride a big horse.

As Xiaoguo listened, she looked at Jiang Danhe behind her and said enviously, “That’s great. It’s a pity I didn’t go.”

“Father tried waking you up in the morning, but you didn’t move. You even slapped his forehead.”

Zhuang Zhuang placed the things they bought on the table and complained to Xiaoguo. He even pointed at Jiang Danhe’s forehead pitifully to show her.

“Really?” Xiaoguo didn’t believe that she was so irritable in the morning. She turned to look at Jiang Danhe’s forehead and didn’t find anything unusual. It looked pretty normal to her.

Jiang Danhe sighed helplessly. Zhuang Zhuang was right. When he was waking her in the morning, she suddenly turned around and slapped him on the forehead. He could disregard the pain, but in any case, he was quite shocked by her reaction.

“Why did you buy so many things?”

Seeing Jiang Danhe’s expression, Xiaoguo thought that Zhuang Zhuang’s words might be true. Embarrassed, she rummaged through the things on the table and changed the subject.

But when she had a good look at the items, she was really shocked. Why had they bought so much food, drinks, household items, and bed covers?

Did they rob the grocery store?

Zhuang Zhuang chuckled and looked at Jiang Danhe mischievously. He knew that his mother would think it was too much.

Jiang Danhe didn’t think much of it and said nonchalantly, “I just bought these things randomly.”

He didn’t think it was too much. If Zhuang Zhuang hadn’t stopped him, he would have bought more.

Xiaoguo nodded slowly and looked at the mountains of items. This was too awesome. After sorting everything, she could probably start a grocery store…

Just as Xiaoguo was putting the things away, Jiang Danhe disappeared again in the blink of an eye. She only found out from Zhuang Zhuang that he had gone out again with a basket on his back. Xiaoguo looked around the house and realized that he had brought with him the largest basket in the house.

There was no lack of firewood or grass at home. What was he up to?

Although Xiaoguo found it strange, she still had to finish what she was doing. After packing up, she was about to make dinner when Jiang Danhe returned.

Xiaoguo took a closer look and saw that he wasn’t the only one who had returned. There was a small figure following behind him.

When she saw who it was, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Why did the two of you come back together?”

“Hehe, Auntie.” Xiaohu scratched his head in embarrassment. He was holding a big white pear in his hand.

Xiaoguo greeted him back and was about to invite him into the house. Unexpectedly, Xiaohu shook his head and said, “Aunt, I won’t go in. It’s good enough that I’ve escorted Uncle back safely. I should go back. My mother is waiting for me to start dinner.”

Hearing this, Xiaoguo smiled. She looked at the helpless Jiang Danhe and asked Xiaohu, “Why are you escorting Uncle back?”

“Because Uncle always loses things. The last time…”

Before Xiaohu could finish speaking, a big pear was stuffed into his mouth.

“What are you doing?”

Xiaoguo looked suspiciously at Jiang Danhe, who had a strange expression on his face.

Jiang Danhe smiled and didn’t say anything. He carried the confused Xiaohu to the door and put him down. He stroked his head and said gently, “Go back. Your mother is still waiting for you to start dinner.”

Xiaohu nodded blankly and left. On the way back, he wondered what he was intending to say earlier. What was it again?

As he watched the boy leave, Jiang Danhe finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he had good crisis awareness. Otherwise, if Xiaohu had told Xiaoguo about him throwing the books the other day, he would have had a hard time explaining himself.
