Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother

321 Truth

Xiaoguo liked to listen to Xiao Zhu talk. She was extremely cute. When the little girl got excited talking about something, she would dance with joy.

Once again, Xiaoguo was tickled by something Xiao Zhu was telling her. As she leaned against the window and laughed, she suddenly saw a shadow flash past below.

Thinking that she was seeing things, she blinked hard and put this matter to the back of her mind.

“Xiao Zhu, you’re so cute…”

Xiaoguo said sincerely.

Xiao Zhu blushed when she heard that. This was the first time someone had praised her for being cute. She didn’t know how to respond to Xiaoguo.

At this moment, Jiang Danhe returned with a plate in his hand.

“Xiaoguo? Xiaoguo?”

When he entered the house and didn’t see Xiaoguo around, he shouted twice.

“Hey! I’m here!”

When Xiaoguo heard Jiang Danhe from the attic, she replied to him and told Xiao Zhu, “Let’s go down.”

“Okay!”

Xiao Zhu happily followed behind her.

“Why did you come down from there?”

Jiang Danhe heard the commotion and came to the bottom of the attic. Coincidentally, he bumped into the two people coming down. He took a few steps forward and carried Xiaoguo down. “You should stop climbing. What if you fall?”

“I’m fine. I am used to doing this at home.”

Hearing her nonchalant tone, Jiang Danhe could only sigh helplessly. “My wife is good.”

Xiaoguo didn’t understand what he was making a fuss about. She walked to the table casually and looked at the food he had brought back. She swallowed her saliva and said, “It’s delicious…”

Jiang Danhe laughed in exasperation. “Have you eaten it? How is it delicious?”

“I haven’t eaten, but can’t you let me have my fill just by looking at it?”

Xiaoguo ignored him and sat down, speaking with deliberation.

“Alright, eat your fill with your eyes. Xiao Zhu and I will taste these fish and prawns.”

Jiang Danhe said deliberately before inviting Xiao Zhu to sit down and eat.

How could Xiaoguo miss the chance to taste the dishes? Her stomach was already rumbling. It had not been easy for her to endure her hunger until now. Moreover, it was her favorite seafood meal. How could she not eat it?

Jiang Danhe brought a lot of food that was enough for the three of them. Although Xiaoguo was starving, her appetite was limited. She became full shortly after eating.

Xiao Zhu was the surprising one. Although she was small, she had a big appetite. Her appetite was comparable to a grown man like Jiang Danhe.

After Xiao Zhu finished eating, she rushed to send the plates back so that the two of them could rest early.

She was small but strong. Xiaoguo couldn’t outdo her so she let the little girl clear the plates for them.

“Does she know where to return the plates?”

Xiaoguo looked curiously at Xiao Zhu, who was walking out, and turned to ask Jiang Danhe.

“She should know.” Jiang Danhe put down his handkerchief and took out a new one to wipe Xiaoguo’s hands. “I collected the food at the village chief’s house. Xiao Zhu must have recognized his plates.”

“How did Xiao Zhu know?”

Xiaoguo subconsciously stretched out both hands towards him. The plates basically looked the same. How could she tell?

“I heard from the village chief that Xiao Zhu’s family has been away from home for a long time. Since she is still young, she often eats at his house. And didn’t you notice that the shape of those plates are quite unique?”

Hearing his words, Xiaoguo thought of something and nodded. She said in surprise, “Oh yes . They are not round.”

If those plates were brought to the modern world, they would be considered instagram-worthy. Apart from not being round, they looked pretty good.

Jiang Danhe stroked her head in satisfaction and said with a smile, “The village chief’s son works in a kiln. All defective products were usually destroyed upon production, but he felt that it was a pity, so he brought them home for his own use. They’re the only family in the village who have these special plates, so they’re very easy to recognize.”

“What if someone else also has a similar-looking plate?”

Xiaoguo felt that since the useless plates were not worth much, there might be others who would bring them home for their own use.

“Did you see the bottom of the plates when Xiao Zhu was clearing them?”

“No.” Xiaoguo shook her head. “Was there something at the bottom?”

“The old village chief’s surname is Wan. The kiln that his son owns is called Madam Wan. The words ‘Madam Wan’ are engraved in red at the bottom of the plates. Besides him, no one else could bring back the defective items from the kiln.”

“When did you notice it? Was it also part of your previous investigation?”

If they had investigated in advance, it is really amazing that they knew all these details.

“I just happened to see it.”

With that, Jiang Danhe took her hand. “Let’s go. Didn’t you say that you were going to help me change the dressing?”

Xiaoguo was dragged into the house in a daze. Looking at Jiang Danhe, who was keeping a low profile, she felt an inexplicable sense of admiration. His observation skills were really impressive!

When they returned to the house, Jiang Danhe began to take off his clothes.

When she saw his well-defined muscles, Xiaoguo closed her eyes. For a moment, all her blood had rushed to her face and heart. “What are you doing?”

“Should I not take off my clothes while you help me with the dressing?” Jiang Danhe continued what he was doing. Then, he understood something and turned around to look at her with ill intentions. “What are you thinking?”

When Xiaoguo heard his words, she subconsciously opened her eyes and looked back at him. What greeted her eyes was a piece of white and tender skin that was vaguely wrapped in gauze…

Before her nose started bleeding, she forced herself to retract her gaze and take a few steps back. She focused her gaze on the other party’s face and said angrily, “Why are you standing so close to me?”

Jiang Danhe did not answer her question. Instead, he looked at her flushed face with a smirk. “What are you thinking about?”

“Definitely not thinking about you!”

Her answer sounded like she was trying to fool herself.

As expected, Jiang Danhe looked at her meaningfully. “Feel free to look. We’re not strangers anyway.”

As he spoke, he took off his clothes completely, revealing his upper body. He reached out his arm to pull her over.

Once he moved, every muscle on his arm started moving. Xiaoguo’s eyes were involuntarily drawn to his body…

“Jiang Danhe! Are you going to let me change the dressing?”

Seeing that he was getting closer, Xiaoguo slapped his back in a panic. Coincidentally, she hit him on his wound and he groaned in pain.

“Are you all right?” Xiaoguo held on to him anxiously and walked towards the bed.

Jiang Danhe didn’t say anything. He just frowned and followed her to the bed. Then, he took the opportunity to push Xiaoguo down and lay on top of her. The look of pain on his face had long disappeared.

“!!” Xiaoguo was startled by him. As she lay on the bed, her heart was thumping non-stop. She looked at the man who was so close to her and said softly, “What are you doing…?”

“It’s nothing. I just suddenly remembered that someone had signed a contract saying that she will have a daughter with me the next time we meet.”

Jiang Danhe deliberately leaned closer to her and said slowly.

Xiaoguo bristled when she heard that. “What do you mean I signed it? You tricked me!”

“You don’t like daughters?”

“I do. No, no, no. It’s not a matter of whether I like them or not.”

“Then what’s the problem?”

As Jiang Danhe spoke, he tried to undress her.

Xiaoguo grabbed his hands shyly and anxiously. Feeling his rising temperature, she couldn’t help but feel flustered. “I don’t want a daughter for the time being. At least not now!”

“Why?”

Jiang Danhe vowed to find out the reason. “Why don’t you want a daughter for the time being?”

“I, I… I’m not ready yet!”

Xiaoguo said what she was thinking aloud. She was really not ready to have a second child.

“…” Jiang Danhe smiled and gently dressed her. Then, he pulled her out of bed. “You’re finally telling the truth.”

Xiaoguo looked at Jiang Danhe, who was getting dressed. She felt confused. “Was this… the end?”

“Oh… you did it on purpose!”

Xiaoguo could tell that he was trying to get information out of her, so she slapped him again in anger.

“Hiss…” Jiang Danhe couldn’t help but exclaim. Xiaoguo had really hit the spot where he was badly injured.

“Are you okay?”
