Chapter 207: Still lacking by a lot
“It’s done,” Chi Ruoxi clapped her hands and took a step back. She looked at the man in front of her who was wearing a scarf and couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.
“Head chef, the rest is up to you. Chenchen and I will be waiting for you to show off your skills. ”
Chi yaoxi blinked her eyes playfully and was about to leave after saying this. Li Jingming reached out to grab her and raised his eyebrows. “We’re leaving just like this? Aren’t you going to help?”
Chi yaoxi nodded and sighed helplessly,””Alright, I’ll help the chef.”
Li Jingming looked at Chi Yuexi’s reluctant expression and deliberately asked,””You’re so unwilling to be with me? If the one standing here was Xiao Ye, would you be happy?”
At the thought of Chi Luoxi clearly rejecting Xiao Ye’s confession, but the two of them could still talk and laugh together, li Jingming felt a little displeased.
In Chi Yuexi’s heart, I’m actually not as good as that Xiao Ye?
Even if Xiao Ye’s confession failed, the two of them could still continue to be friends. Why couldn’t he be worse than Xiao Ye in terms of Chi Yuexi and him?
When li Jingming thought of this, he felt even more jealous.
Chi Yuexi didn’t notice anything unusual about him and thought that he was just joking with her. Hence, she smiled and replied,””Why would I? no matter who’s here, I don’t want to be an assistant. I just want to wait lazily for the ready-made food.”
“This is more like it.” Li Jingming snorted, took the vegetables that Chi Yuexi had packed, and placed them on the chopping board.
The things were packed very quickly. However, there was not much to prepare for dinner for the three of them.
Chi yaoxi wiped her hands and stood at the side, watching the man who was focused on what he was doing. She couldn’t help but feel a little fascinated.
......
It was said that a focused man was the most charming, even if this man was only cooking.
She looked deeply at the man and was about to say something when her phone suddenly rang.
“Mommy, there’s a phone call for you.” Chenchen was sitting in the living room, playing with the little Samoyed. When she heard Chi Kexi’s phone ring, she brought it to her.
“Thank you, baby Chenchen.” Chi Yuexi took the phone and blinked at Chenchen.
She didn’t know who was calling at this time. It was the weekend, and he didn’t even let her rest for a moment. It was really tiring.
Chi Yuexi sighed in her heart. She glanced at the caller ID helplessly, and her expression changed immediately.
The call was from sister Ming. Could it be something troublesome?
Chi Yuexi didn’t dare to think any further. She immediately answered the call and walked out of the kitchen.
“Hello, Sister Ming, is there anything I can help you with?”
Chi Yuexi was worried that something had happened to sister Ming, so she couldn’t help but feel nervous.
“Xiaoyue, come to the set now. We need to reshoot your scenes.” Sister Ming hung up the phone right after she said that.
After learning that it was only a reshoot, Chi Yuexi heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, nothing major had happened.
“Are you going out? not eating?” Li Jingming turned around from the kitchen and glanced at Chi Yuexi, feeling a little regretful.
The atmosphere just now was obviously not bad, but before he could do anything, it was broken.
“Yes, I’m going to the film set. I don’t know when I’ll be back, so you two don’t have to wait for me. Let’s go after eating. ” Chi Yuexi said helplessly.
She had thought that today would be a wonderful holiday and that she would be able to have a rare meal with li Jingming and Chenchen. He didn’t expect that such an unforeseen event would happen halfway. It was really a pity.
However, work was more important. As for the other things, he could only do it next time.
Li Jingming’s mouth moved as he tried to persuade Chi Yuexi to stay. However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment. He knew that work was more important. Even if he asked, Chi Yuexi would not stay for him.
He sighed in his heart and said,””Be careful on the road.”
“Yes, you two have to eat well.” Chi yaoxi nodded, then turned to Chenchen, who was in the living room, and said,”Chenchen, be a good girl and eat with daddy. I’m going to work.”
“Mommy, don’t you want to eat with us?” Chenchen’s expression immediately turned dejected when she heard that Chi Yuexi was leaving.”Chenchen wants to eat with Daddy and Mommy.”
“Mommy has to go to work. I’m so sorry, Chenchen. If there’s a chance next time, let’s eat together, okay?” Chi Yuexi walked up to Chenchen and kissed him on the cheek.
Chenchen’s mischievous eyes darted around and she immediately said,”Then how about tomorrow? Mommy will have dinner with Chenchen tomorrow!”
Chi Yuexi hesitated for a moment. She wasn’t sure if she would have the time for tomorrow’s trip. But when she saw Chenchen’s big, wet eyes looking at her pitifully, she really could not say no.
“Alright,” he said. Chi Yuexi finally nodded and told Chenchen,”if you have time tomorrow, let’s eat together.”
“Yay! Mommy is the best!” When Chenchen heard Chi Yuexi’s reply, she happily pounced forward and also kissed Chi Yueyue on the cheek.
Chi Yuexi couldn’t help but find it a little funny. After exchanging a few more words with Chenchen, she got up to take her clothes and leave.
Li Jingming followed her and was about to send her out. However, Chi Yuexi stood by the door and rejected him.
“You should go back and cook. Don’t worry about me. Just don’t let Chenchen go hungry. ”
Chi Yuexi’s words made li Jingming feel a sense of awkwardness.
There was still a huge difference between him and Chi Yuexi.
Li Jingming sighed in his heart and didn’t force her. He only said tactfully,””Don’t worry, it’s just two steps away, it won’t delay anything. ”
“You said it yourself, I can walk a distance of two steps myself.” Chi yaoxi smiled and walked out without waiting for li Jingming to say anything.
Li Jingming was about to return to the kitchen to continue cooking for Chenchen when he heard a faint sigh coming from beside his leg.
It was Chenchen who pretended to be an adult and said,”Daddy, it seems like you’re still lacking.”
Looking at Chenchen’s face, which was as deep as an adult ‘s, li Jingming’s worries disappeared. He couldn’t help but smile and rub his son’s head.””Alright, let’s go back for dinner.”
Chi Yuexi drove towards the film set. The situation on the road wasn’t too good as she actually encountered a traffic jam. When she arrived at the set, the sky was already dark.
“I’m sorry, director, I’m late. There was a traffic jam on the road. ” Chi Yuexi explained as she quickly walked towards the director.
