Divorced Dad's Gourmet Shop

Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Together?

Jun Xinghe realized his slip of the tongue and tried to backtrack. "I mean, let’s just get this meeting over with."

Jun Qingmeng didn’t buy it. "Please stop bothering my boyfriend and me during our happy life together. That’s all. Don’t reply."

After reading the message, Jun Xinghe

was grinding his teeth in fury.

’Some little brat, some son of a bitch, managed to seduce his daughter.’ He was so furious he could feel smoke coming out of his ears.

Jun Xinghe paced anxiously around his study, feeling the heartache of someone whose meticulously cultivated delicacy had been devoured by a dog.

"Fine, fine, fine. You blind little brat, seducing my daughter? Heh, just you wait until I get my hands on you!"

He swore that when they finally met, he would humiliate this son of a bitch so badly he wouldn’t be able to show his face in public again!

’And if he’s even worse than I imagine, then I’ll just have to ’mince’ him.’

Jun Qingmeng switched off her phone.

She sighed, forced a beautiful smile onto her face, and pushed open the door to Jiang Liu’s home.

On the table, Jiang Liu had already prepared snacks and fruit.

There was sliced, chilled watermelon, Kyoho grapes, pomegranate seeds, salt-baked peanuts, and a mix of pine nuts and pistachios.

Tongtong was lying on the sofa. She had already cued up the episode of Conan they were watching yesterday, pausing it so they could all watch it together as a family.

"Mom, you’re here? Quick, sit down! Dad’s still making more yummy food."

Hearing her voice from the kitchen, Jiang Liu knew Qingmeng had arrived, and his mood brightened even more.

He called out while still busy:

"Qingmeng, I saved some pomegranate seeds for Guo Jia in the kitchen. You can take them to her when you go back."

"Okay," Jun Qingmeng called back toward the kitchen, then walked over to the sofa and stroked Tongtong’s head.

"Did you miss me?"

"I did!"

"I missed you too. How about a kiss?"

"MWUAH!"

"Hehe."

Jun Qingmeng played with Tongtong for a moment before tiptoeing into the kitchen.

She snuck up behind Jiang Liu and wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head against his back.

Jiang Liu had actually heard her coming. Ever since he gained Spiritual Enhancement, he felt his brain could process sounds with much greater clarity.

Feeling the sudden weight on his back, Jiang Liu stiffened for a moment. Once he relaxed, he asked without turning around, "What’s wrong, Qingmeng?"

"Jiang Liu," Jun Qingmeng murmured gently, her cheek still pressed against his back.

"Hm? I’m here. What’s the matter?"

Jiang Liu sensed that something was on Jun Qingmeng’s mind. He patted the hands she had resting on his stomach.

’Her hands are so soft and delicate. They feel nice.’

Jun Qingmeng let go and habitually smoothed back her hair. "I’m fine. I just... missed you a lot."

Jiang Liu glanced back at her, a little exasperated. "But I’m right here. You can touch me if you want, and I’ll answer if you talk. What’s there to miss?"

Jun Qingmeng shook her head. "I’m just worried about losing you, so I’m missing you in advance."

"If I miss you now, you’re right here in front of me. But if I miss you one day when you’re not here anymore, it’ll be too painful."

Jiang Liu was taken aback for a second.

’I don’t think I quite get it.’

"Here, how about a hug to soothe your wounded heart?"

"Mhm!"

Jun Qingmeng threw herself into Jiang Liu’s arms.

She greedily inhaled his scent.

Her arms gradually tightened, as if trying to press him into her own body.

Sensing his girlfriend’s strange mood, Jiang Liu gently patted her back.

Jun Qingmeng said, "Jiang Liu, did you know? Whenever I miss you, I hug Tongtong, because she smells just like you."

She sounded very embarrassed as she said it.

Jun Qingmeng felt that her love for Jiang Liu had become a kind of sickness. freewёbnoνel.com

Nearby, Tongtong, who had been waiting for the two to join her for their show, perked up her little ears.

’Ooh, Mommy and Daddy are hugging.’

Jiang Tongtong hopped off the sofa.

She scampered into the kitchen. "Did you two forget about your little cutie?"

"Quick, hug me too."

Jun Qingmeng released Jiang Liu and hugged Tongtong between them, playfully tapping her little nose.

"Of course we could never forget Tongtong. You’re one of Mommy’s favorite people."

"Gasp! Really?"

"Not at all. Tongtong is the most wonderful daughter in the whole world."

"Wow!!"

Tongtong covered her mouth, overjoyed.

’She was the best daughter to Mommy and Daddy.’

’No one else could compare.’

Jiang Tongtong said happily, "Mommy is the best mommy in the world too! Hmm, and then there’s a certain annoying daddy."

"If you two are ever sad, you can come find Tongtong. She’s really good at helping you make up."

The three of them snuggled together on the sofa.

Tongtong insisted on lying in the middle so she could have both her mommy and daddy at the same time.

She leaned against Jun Qingmeng, rested her little feet on Jiang Liu’s lap, and hugged Jiang Liu’s arm.

"Daddy, your little cutie wants to be fed!"

"You lazy little thing, get it yourself."

"Waaah, okay..." Tongtong looked up pitifully at Jun Qingmeng.

Jun Qingmeng said, "Tongtong, what do you want to eat? I’ll feed you."

"Pistachios! Could you shell them for me, Mommy?"

Jun Qingmeng shelled a few and fed them to Tongtong, then fed one to Jiang Liu as well.

"Hehe, Mommy’s the best. Tongtong now declares that Mommy is the best in the world, and Daddy is the second best in the world."

Jiang Liu pressed his thumb against his middle finger and blew on it. "I didn’t quite hear that. Could you repeat it?"

Tongtong immediately backed down. "Just kidding, Daddy! You and Mommy are both the best in the world."

While feeding Tongtong, Jun Qingmeng kept stealing glances at Jiang Liu’s profile.

"Jiang Liu?"

"Hm?"

"Turn your head away. I have something for you."

"Okay." Jiang Liu obediently turned his head away from Jun Qingmeng.

Jun Qingmeng leaned over and quickly pecked Jiang Liu on the cheek.

"Did you like it?"

Jiang Liu touched the spot where she had kissed him; it was still a little damp.

’His girlfriend’s lips were so soft. The kiss felt cool for an instant, then warm.’

"I did," Jiang Liu answered honestly with a goofy grin.

’His face felt a little hot.’

Tongtong had already covered her eyes.

’I can watch on Saturday and Sunday, but not from Monday to Friday!’

"If you like it, I’ll kiss you more often. I’m all yours, after all."

Jun Qingmeng said happily, reaching out to pat her boyfriend on the head.

’So cute!’

’I have to spoil him!’

Jiang Liu pretended to be calm and continued watching TV.

’His girlfriend was getting bolder and bolder.’

’This won’t do...’

They watched an episode and a half of Conan.

Feeling it was getting late, Jun Qingmeng stood up and said, "Jiang Liu, you should get some sleep. I... I’m going back to my place to sleep."

She bit her lip, reluctant to leave. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

’She wanted to stay with Jiang Liu forever.’

Jiang Liu didn’t react much. "Okay. It’s almost ten-thirty, time for bed."

"Waaah, Mommy, don’t leave Tongtong!"

Tongtong chased after Jun Qingmeng, tugging on her clothes with a reluctant look on her little face. "Mommy, please stay and sleep with us! Please, please, please?"

Jun Qingmeng was incredibly tempted. Her heart pounded in her chest, and her ears instantly turned pink.

’If Jiang Liu didn’t object...’

’She’d be willing, too.’

’They had already kissed, after all. Taking things one step further wouldn’t matter...’

’Ah, what am I thinking!’

’Qingmeng, oh, Qingmeng, you’ve become so naughty.’

In an instant, a flurry of thoughts raced through Jun Qingmeng’s mind.

With a hint of hidden expectation in her eyes, Jun Qingmeng glanced at Jiang Liu and patted Tongtong’s head.

"Be a good girl, Tongtong. Won’t we see each other again tomorrow?"
