Chapter 867 Relationship, can go further

When Tong Xiaohuai finally took his hand away from his big palm, it seemed as if a whole century had passed.

But Yan Bo secretly hoped that holding hands like this could last a lifetime like this.

Unknowingly, from the initial desire to get to know her, he has now become more and more sure and resolute in her.

"It's almost time, and you're hungry too. Let's eat first and read a book later."

As the master, Yan Bo broke the silence first.

Although, he really wanted this atmosphere of tacit understanding to last longer, but he was worried that she would be starved.

Tong Xiaohuai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and obediently followed him out of the study. In the dining room, Aunt Xin had already arranged the food and served the soup.

"Mr. Yan, if you have any dissatisfaction, please write it down. I will improve it gradually in the future. You can eat slowly. I will come back to clean up the dishes in two hours."

Yan Bo only found out when he chatted with Aunt Xin in the afternoon that Aunt Xin is a foreigner and lives in the dormitory of the housekeeping company, which is in the alley behind the building.

Yan Bo is not a harsh boss, and he does not agree with Aunt Xin's proposal to come back to clean up the dishes in two hours.

"Aunt Xin, you've been busy all day. Go back and have a good rest. I'll put the dishes and chopsticks into the sink later. Come over and wash them together tomorrow."

Aunt Xin was of course happy to receive such a tolerant reply from the employer, and asked Yanbo what fruit he likes, saying that he would buy it when he came over tomorrow.

Here, Yanbo and Aunt Xin are chattering politely, and Tong Xiaohuai, who is sitting at the dining table, has already picked up the soup and started drinking it.

"Well...it's really delicious!" After eating too much Uncle Guan's indescribable dishes, Tong Xiaohuai was extremely happy to drink normal soup now.

Aunt Xin is a person who knows how to read people's faces. When she saw Yanbo's hospitality to Tong Xiaohuai just now, she naturally understood that this Tong Xiaohuai had an extraordinary meaning to her employer.

"What kind of soup Miss Tong likes to drink, and what else she likes to eat, please tell me. Next time you come over, I'll make it for you."

What she said made Yan Bo very upset.

"Yes, Xiaohuai, just tell me what you want to eat next time, and I will ask Aunt Xin to prepare it in advance."

Yan Bo's words were like greeting Tong Xiaohuai as a hostess.

Tong Xiaohuai would rather be obedient than respectful, "Thank you, Aunt Xin, then I will not be polite."

When Aunt Xin left, Tong Xiaohuai said to Yan Bo, "You are really lucky to have such a good nanny as Aunt Xin."

Yan Bo put a fresh oyster into her bowl, "It's all the same, you like to come and eat at any time, I will give you Aunt Xin's phone number later, just let her make whatever you want to eat."

As Yan Bo said that, he had already made a decision in his heart that he would raise [-]% of Aunt Xin's salary.

After all, it is home-cooked food. Although the appearance is not fancy, the taste is more delicious and light, which is very suitable for their appetites, so both of them ate a little more than usual.

However, under Yan Bo's orders, Aunt Xin prepared a table full of dishes, no matter how big the two people's appetites were, they couldn't finish the table.

However, both of them tasted each dish once.

"I really envy someone like Aunt Xin who can cook..."

Tong Xiaohuai herself doesn't even know how to cook instant noodles, she only knows how to soak them in boiling water.

Yan Bo has a different opinion, "Everyone has their own strengths, and Aunt Xin is indeed a good cook, but you know what you are good at, but Aunt Xin doesn't know how to cook, right?"

Tong Xiaohuai, however, sighed, "In the eyes of the world, women, after all, must have a good handiwork to be considered a good woman."

Of course, this is not her own experience, she only came to such a conclusion after listening to the men in Tongjia Village chatting a lot.

"That's not necessarily the case!" Yan Bo didn't discriminate against women, he thought women were the same as men.

The idea that a woman should take care of her husband and raise her children at home has never crossed his mind.

Tong Xiaohuai was a little surprised, after all, many rich and young are extremely big men in their bones.

"I thought that every man hoped that his wife could cook well."

Yanbo doesn't deny this, "Of course it's best to be able to cook! But I think, a wife is a wife, not a cook, so why must she cook well? My mother and sister are all cooks with poached eggs. People who can't fry, but I don't think they are not good women."

Tong Xiaohuai heard Yan Bo mention his family a few times, from his words, it can be heard that his family should be a big loving family.

"I really envy you. You grew up with older brothers and sisters."

Yanbo knew that because of her mother's health, Tong Xiaohuai was the only child in the family.

Seeing her melancholy and lonely now, he said, "Whenever is convenient, I'll take you to meet my elder brother, he will definitely like you."

Tong Xiaohuai froze for a moment, a little confused for a moment, did Yan Bo pretend to be confused, or was it a slip of the tongue?

She and him are just friends. Seeing the eldest brother should not happen at their current stage.

"Hehe, Yanbo, you really know how to joke. I am not related to your elder brother, so why does he like me?"

Yanbo put down his chopsticks, looked at her and said earnestly, "Xiaohuai, from the very beginning, I have been with you with the mentality of developing a deeper relationship with you. It can be said that I have prepared to lead you from the very beginning. You know my brothers and sisters, and the preparations to know all my family members. As long as you nod, our relationship can go further at any time."

Tong Xiaohuai was startled by his serious confession and choked for a while, coughed for a long time before recovering, raised her head, and looked at him with mist in her eyes.

"Yanbo, you said that you let us get to know each other well, didn't you?"

From Tong Xiaohuai's point of view, she hoped to get acquainted with him step by step. If the relationship was too close, she was afraid that she would not be able to control it.

Yanbo has always been a gentleman, especially when it comes to Tong Xiaohuai.

Seeing her flustered now, he hurriedly said.

"Yes, I said that and I still do. I mean, we could always be closer if you wanted to."

Tong Xiaohuai's face slowly turned red, "No...I think this is fine now..."

A little closer, and she would probably be completely dominated by him.

Yan Bo also understood that he couldn't push her too hard, seeing that she lowered her head, as if she didn't even dare to look at him, so she wisely changed the topic.

"Let's eat, you can taste all these dishes carefully, and ask Aunt Xin to cook which ones you think are delicious."

Yanbo himself, of course thinks that Aunt Xin's workmanship is good, but the key point is that Tong Xiaohuai must also think it is good.

After today, he finally understood that eating out, no matter how good the taste is, it is impossible to have such an intimate atmosphere at home.
