Chapter 130 129 The lingering smell
When Li Caixia returned home, her husband had not returned from the evening shift, and Song Xingye was the only one at home.

The girl is lying on the sofa reading a book.

Li Caixia put her bag on the coffee table and asked casually: "Have you had dinner?"

Song Xingye said softly "Hmm".

Li Caixia didn't pay attention at first, but suddenly, she smelled a fragrance.

"What does this smell like? Why is it so..."

Li Caixia cast her doubtful eyes on her daughter.

Song Xingye raised his head and looked at her and explained: "Because Xu Zhe cooked a meal at our house. But he said that the range hood in our house seemed to be broken, so the smell could not be dissipated."

"Xu Zhe?" Li Caixia looked stunned, "Did he cook the dinner you had?"

Song Xingye: "Yes, what he makes is delicious."

Li Caixia: "There is nothing in our refrigerator. What can we do?"

Song Xingye smiled and said: "He makes soy pot noodles, which are very simple. Apart from noodles, they are just eggs, cabbage, onions and garlic... but they are very delicious. They are the most delicious noodles I have ever eaten in my life!"

Li Caixia couldn't help but frown slightly: "How old are you? What are you talking about in this life?"

The girl "hummed" and said, "I'm just telling the truth."

Li Caixia felt that her focus was a little off. After thinking about it for a moment, she realized where the key problem was.

She asked: "Why did Xu Zhe come to our house?"

Song Xingye's tone was fair and aboveboard: "Not just Xu Zhe, but also Feifei. I went skiing with them and accidentally sprained my foot, so they sent me back."

"Are you sprained?"

Li Caixia looked carefully at her daughter's feet, but she didn't see which one was injured.

Song Xingye: "Because I applied ice for a while, the swelling has already subsided. I just need to rest at home for a few more days."

Li Caixia: "What are you going to do with your life these days? Your dad and I are not at home, and it is inconvenient for you to go out. Do you have to ask Xu Zhe to cook for you?"

Song Xingye lowered his face slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, and couldn't help but snicker.

Li Caixia reminded: "It's better to have Feifei together. Do you think it's appropriate for Xu Zhe to come to our house alone? And even if you don't say whether it's appropriate for a boy to come to our house, you have the nerve to let Xu Zhe come over and cook for you every day. ?”

Song Xingye raised his little face, and his snickering expression had subsided.

The girl said calmly: "Feifei told me just now that she would come to our house with Xu Zhe. Because we had to take tutoring during the winter vacation, so the tutoring place was changed from Feifei's house to here. So my food problem also changed. It’s easy to solve, I can ask Feifei to pack one for me, or Xu Zhe can do it.”

Li Caixia thought about it for a few seconds, but stopped talking.She really wanted to ask her daughter, was this plan planned in advance?Did you get hurt on purpose?Or, although the injury was an accident, you immediately figured out how to take advantage of the accident?

Just then, the door opened again.

Song Huaifeng finally returned from get off work.

Li Caixia took her husband to the bedroom and shared what she had just heard from her daughter.

Finally, she concluded: "I really think our daughter's thoughts are a bit mature. I think her thoughts about Xu Zhe are not simple."

Song Huaifeng was a little surprised: "Did you just see it?"

"Have you seen it a long time ago?" Li Caixia was a little angry, "Then you didn't do anything and just watched?"

Song Huaifeng: "What should we do? My daughter won't admit it directly at all. She always finds good reasons for everything. What else should we do, tell Xu Zhe to stay away from our home? Are you embarrassed to tell others this?"

Li Caixia: "..."

At this time, Song Huaifeng also smelled the diffuse fragrance and couldn't help but ask: "Is this the smell of Xu Zhe's cooking? What are you cooking? Why is it so fragrant?"

Li Caixia said angrily: "Go and ask your daughter."

So Song Huaifeng really went.He walked to his daughter and asked, "What did Xu Zhe make for you?"

Song Xingye: "Bake the pot noodles." Song Huaifeng: "Bake the noodles?"

Song Xingye: "He said that onions, ginger, garlic, chili or other spices are put into hot oil at a suitable temperature and simmered to produce the aroma. This is the soybean pot. The onions and garlic he used tonight, but I don't know the specific method. I know, he said it doesn’t seem difficult.”

Song Huaifeng shook his head slightly: "Of course those who know it won't find it difficult."

Li Caixia also came over: "This is a soybean pot. Everyone often cooks like this, using onions, ginger, and garlic to stir-fry until fragrant."

Song Xingye complained in a low voice: "But what you do is not as good as his."

Li Caixia: "You..."

Song Huaifeng interrupted the little argument between mother and daughter and said, "Xu Zhe is indeed powerful, but Xingye, I have to explain something clearly to you."

Seeing that her father's tone and demeanor were quite solemn, the girl had to become serious: "What do you want to say?"

Song Huaifeng: "I know he helped our family a lot. But if I want to repay him, that's something I need to consider, not your business."

Song Xingye blinked, not fully understanding what his father meant.

The man continued: "If you ask other parents, few support their children's early love. But I know that you are different from other children. You are smart and sensible, so you know what to do."

Song Xingye stared at his father and realized that what he just said was definitely not support. If he wanted to say it was opposition, he did not show the dignity of a parent. It was more like a reminder.

It's like a letter written to investors, 'The stock market is risky and investment needs to be done with caution'.Even though I know you won't do it, there are some things you should say.

So the girl said seriously: "I know what I am doing. I will study hard, get into a good high school, and then get into a good university. A student's duty is to study, and I will not forget this."

Song Huaifeng sighed, not sure if it was relief or helplessness, but responded with a complex expression: "That's good."

----

For Xu Zhe, what happened today was a bit unexpected.

From the official notice received from Pingguo in the morning, to going to the ski resort later, to cooking for Song Xingye at night... everything was unexpected.

After bidding farewell to Song Xingye, on the way back to his home, Xu Zhe gathered his thoughts and began to think about another problem.

The game has been completed and launched, and the next step is to wait for the sales results to see how much money can be earned.So, what’s next?Start preparing for your next game now?Or should I just relax first?

Thinking like this, Xu Zhe got out of the car and walked into the community, and then saw Tang Lingfei sitting alone on the swing slowly swinging.

He walked over and asked, "Aren't you cold here?"

Tang Lingfei looked up and saw him, and smiled involuntarily: "It's not cold."

Xu Zhe: "So what are you doing here?"

"I'm thinking about a question," the girl's smile faded. "My grades at the end of the semester were pretty good. I was ranked eighth in the class. The teacher and my parents seem to be quite satisfied..."

Xu Zhe: "But you are not satisfied?"

Tang Lingfei: "You are ranked eighth in our class, so you shouldn't be able to reach the Experimental Middle School in the provincial capital, right?"

Xu Zhe thought for a while: "That's true. Ranking eighth in the class is not enough. Ranking eighth in the whole grade is probably fine."

Tang Lingfei stared at him and said, "But I want to be with you and Xiao Yezi when I go to high school. What should I do?"

Xu Zhe tried to come up with the most feasible plan: "Why don't you find someone to ask for help? Can you give me some money?"

Tang Lingfei was stunned: "Do you have so little confidence in me?"

Xu Zhe: "Child, think clearly. For you to catch up with Xiao Yezi's performance, it cannot be done with confidence."
