    Xue Xue cooked noodles for Chen Ye.

    Although Chen Ye kept saying that he was not hungry, his stomach betrayed his master without hesitation and he expressed his dissatisfaction honestly.

    Listening to the unusually loud gurgling sound coming from his belly, Chen Ye’s ears were already red.

    Xue Xue was stunned for a moment, and after she came to her senses, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.

    Then Chen Ye’s neck started to turn red.

    “It’s because we just had labor relations.”

    He made amends for himself.

    “Uh-huh.” Xue Xue didn’t expose it, and said in a respectful manner: “Thank you for repairing the plant stand. Thank you for your hard work.”

    She blinked.

    “I’ll go get you some noodles.”

    “I can just do it myself…”

    “No!” Xue Xue stretched out his index finger and shook it twice.”We have to have a clear division of labor. You fix the plant stand, and I’ll cook dinner for you. It’s only fair that each person gets a share.”

    She has already talked about this, what else can Chen Ye say?

    Spreading his hands, the man decided to just be a salty fish.

    “As you command!”

    Although the off-duty hours are not fixed and it is troublesome to open a fire, Xue Xue does not want to eat out all the time.

    So she used to braise a pot of dried meat and keep it chilled on weekends. If she came home early one day, she would go to the nearby supermarket to buy some vegetables, which would heat up the rice very quickly.

    If it doesn’t feel rich enough, add two more eggs.

    “How is it?” Seeing Chen Ye sucking and sucking food, she shook her head and complained: “You said you weren’t hungry, you’re a liar.”

    “I wasn’t hungry just now, but now I am.” Chen Ye picked up the soup bowl, took a sip of the salty and fragrant noodle soup, and said with satisfaction: “And your cooking skills are so good, it’s hard not to whet your appetite.”

    Xue Xue expressed satisfaction with his praise.

    “Are you full? If not, I still have instant noodles.”

    “That’s it.” Chen Ye scooped up the last bit of noodles.”It’s easy to accumulate food at this late hour.”

    “Same.” Seeing that he had almost eaten, Xue Xue stood up.”I’ll wash the bowl with noodle soup. It’ll be easier and cleaner.”

    “Hey, I’ll just come.” Chen Ye held her hand.”You are here to eat, so there is no reason for you to take care of me.”

    Xue Xue thinks about it too.

    “Okay, I’ll leave it to you then.” She glanced at the time on her phone.”I’m going to take a shower first.”

    This means that he agreed to stay overnight.

    “Okay!”

    Seeing Chen Ye suddenly smiling happily, Xue Xue looked puzzled. When passing him, he couldn’t help but muttered in a low voice: “You’re not really a fool, are you?”

    “You tell me, your eldest brother and your second brother don’t have the same mother?”

    “Yeah.”

    “Do you think your second brother was born to your mother?”

    “Yes.”

    Realizing that Chen Ye’s tone was not right, Xue Xue raised his eyes and glanced, but was shocked.

    Except for the incident between Frank and Zhao He’an, which she had seen once when she was a child, it was hard for her to imagine that such a ferocious look would appear on Chen Ye again.

    The emotions are suppressed to the extreme, which makes people feel frightened.

    It’s like being shrouded in a dark cloud, and huge thunder may fall at any time, shaking the mountains and rivers.

    “No.” Realizing that Chen Ye might have misunderstood, Xue Xue quickly explained: “I probably am not my mother’s biological child.”

    “It’s just that Zhao He’an and I are not brothers and sisters, and we have no blood relationship.”

    “Actually, it’s the same as now!”

    “Are you listening?” Xue Xue anxiously raised his hand and waved it several times in front of Chen Ye.”I said I…ah!”

    Stretching out his long arms, Chen Ye directly took the person into his arms.

    Xue Xue fell onto his lap, her palms pressed against his hard chest.

    She blinked and met Chen Ye’s deep eyes.

    It was like a newborn universe, and Xue Xue’s reflection was the only planet.

    Instantly, the heart stopped.

    The next second, Chen Ye hugged her.

    He used all his strength to strangle Xue Xue until it hurt.

    But the hands that fell behind him and hugged him tightly were trembling.

    When he realized this, Xue Xue understood.

    What was Chen Ye thinking?

    “I’m fine.” Her voice softened.”Chen Ye, I’m fine, really.”

    Chen Ye still didn’t speak, just buried his face in Xue Xue’s shoulder and neck.

    He didn’t want Xue Xue to see what he looked like now.

    It’s either scary or embarrassing.

    But Chen Ye felt that he could no longer control it. Just like the last time Xue Xue talked about the past with Zhao He’an, the negative and strong emotions dormant deep in people’s hearts were like branches that could break through the ground at any time, ready to move.

    In fact, I had this feeling once in the past.

    A long, long time ago, it was so long that Chen Ye almost forgot about it, and he thought it happened in a previous life.

    That was when grandma left.

    For the first time, Chen Ye realized what hatred was.

    The ill will his classmates had towards him seemed insignificant in comparison.

    How ironic.

    The person who was once abandoned like a useless person, once he found out that it was still valuable, he would think of him again, thinking that he had done a great favor.

    But Chen Ye doesn’t like this. His only family member is his grandma.

    No matter how many times that family came, he would never go back to a home that didn’t treat him as a human being.

    Whenever grandma picks up a broom and chases those people in suits, that’s when Chen Ye is happiest to relieve his anger.

    No matter how hard or difficult your school life is, you can put it behind you.

    His grandmother adopted him as a recycler. There were always piles of things outside the small house. He had been living in a humid and crowded environment for a long time. Even if Chen Ye took a shower in the morning before going to school, he could not get rid of the strange smell.

    At the beginning, Chen Ye also complained.

    Until the group of people came over and wanted to take him back despite his resistance, and grandma used her stooped body to protect him tightly like an old chicken protecting a chick, preventing anyone from getting close. Chen Ye, who looked at grandma’s back, suddenly figured it out.

    So what if you were laughed at?So what if you are looked down upon?In fact, his future has never been in the hands of those people.

    Even so, there is still someone who is willing to protect his future unconditionally.
