Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1528: 1527 Why envy her

Qin Mu felt wronged, “How do you know I didn’t make the first move?”

“Sigh, it seems that even if you did make the first move, it was useless. You’re destined to be banished for a long time.”

After getting in the car, Gu Kai sighed with endless emotion.

Qin Mu glared at him, “Get out and drive your own car.”

Gu Kai sneered and quickly buckled his seatbelt, “Ah Mu, don’t be like that. I’m here out of kindness to chat with you and give you advice.”

“I don’t need it.”

Qin Mu didn’t believe that Gu Kai could come up with any good ideas.

Besides, between him and An Lin, there was no need for Gu Kai’s advice. An Lin had clearly told him what she needed.

“Alright, just drop me off at the pharmaceutical factory then.”

Gu Kai fastened his seatbelt and reclined the seat a bit, lazily relaxing into it.

He completely treated Qin Mu beside him like a chauffeur.

Qin Mu pursed his lips, started the car, “It’s not on the way.”

As a result, instead of the pharmaceutical factory, Gu Kai was taken to a supermarket by Qin Mu.

“Ah Mu, why did you bring me to the supermarket?”

“To buy groceries.”

Qin Mu explained calmly, “My mom is in the hospital, and the mother-in-law is now at Ranran’s house, having a great time with the kids, and An Lin is home alone.”

“An Lin still can’t cook?”

An Lin is a disaster in the kitchen, which is no secret.

Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen, among others, all knew this.

Qin Mu heard this and looked at him strangely, “Why does she need to know how, as long as I can cook?”

“Oh my god, Ah Mu, don’t ever say this in front of Yiyi.”

Gu Kai made an exaggerated expression, earning a cold laugh from Qin Mu, “If you hadn’t reminded me, it would be fine, but since you said it, then let’s pick her up later.”

Gu Kai’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t object.

The two men shopped for groceries quickly.

Qin Mu knew what An Lin liked to eat, putting everything in the cart without a hint of hesitation.

Watching from the side, Gu Kai thought to himself: Does Qin Mu really have no feelings for An Lin? Could it be that he’s already unknowingly started to like her?

Just not to the point of love yet.

“By the way, what does Bai Yiyi like to eat?”

Qin Mu, having bought what he needed, turned to ask Gu Kai.

“Ah Mu, are you planning to invite Yiyi and me for dinner?”

Gu Kai smirked as he looked at Qin Mu.

He nodded, “Well, since Tongtong and her grandma are both at Ranran’s house, call Bai Yiyi and ask her to come to my place.”

“Aren’t you afraid we’ll be third-wheeling?”

“Stop with the nonsense.”

Gu Kai named a couple of dishes, and Qin Mu bought the ingredients, paid, and headed downstairs.

The whole process took no more than ten minutes. Seeing him buy so much, Gu Kai couldn’t help but tease, “Ah Mu, you could teach An Lin to cook.”

“Not teaching.”

Qin Mu frowned, reminded of how every time An Lin entered the kitchen, it was a disaster.

He’d rather cook for the rest of his life than teach An Lin how to cook.

“Don’t you want to taste something An Lin cooked for you?”

Gu Kai deliberately teased, but Qin Mu was resolute and unmoved, “I don’t.”

When Gu Kai called Bai Yiyi, she was delayed by work for more than ten minutes and was about to leave work.

“Yiyi, don’t go home, Ah Mu is inviting us for dinner, so head straight to Ah Mu’s house. An Lin is home alone.”

Gu Kai looked at Qin Mu driving beside him, giving cheerful instructions.

“Qin Mu is inviting us for dinner?”

On the other end of the line, Bai Yiyi seemed a bit surprised.

And at home, no less. Was he going to cook himself?

“Yes, Yiyi, we’re on our way to Ah Mu’s house, so just head straight there.”

“Oh, alright.”

After hanging up, Gu Kai hesitated for a moment and said, “I’ll help you cook tonight.”

Qin Mu nodded without saying a word.

The smile tugging at his lips showed he’d already anticipated Gu Kai would say that.

***

When Gu Kai and Qin Mu arrived home, Bai Yiyi also just got there.

They went upstairs together and entered the living room, where Gu Kai proactively joined Qin Mu in the kitchen, leaving An Lin and Bai Yiyi to watch TV in the living room.

“An Lin, I heard you want to stay in City C for work, is that true?”

Bai Yiyi leaned closer to An Lin, lowering her voice as if she were afraid the two in the kitchen might hear.

An Lin stuffed a piece of apple into her mouth, casually replying, “Yes, I quite like City C.”

“You don’t like G City?”

Bai Yiyi swallowed her apple and asked with feigned disapproval.

An Lin thought for a moment before saying, “Not really, it’s just that I’m used to being in City C for many years. It’s like in A City, where I feel a sense of home.”

In contrast, where she was living now, that sense of belonging was missing.

“Won’t you and Qin Mu have to live apart, or will Qin Mu go to City C with you?”

Bai Yiyi glanced towards the kitchen’s direction and asked with concern.

An Lin chuckled lightly, “Living apart it is. Maybe distance creates beauty.”

She wanted to be independent again, not relying on or depending on a man, and she certainly wouldn’t lose herself over a man who didn’t love her.

“Did Qin Mu agree?”

“I make my own decisions, whether he agrees or not doesn’t change anything.”

If he truly cared, the distance between G City and City C wasn’t that far; he could come visit anytime he wanted.

If he didn’t have her in his heart, being together every day wouldn’t matter.

Seeing her determination, Bai Yiyi didn’t try to persuade her any further and shifted the conversation to other topics.

Until the two men in the kitchen finished cooking and brought the dinner to the table, then they washed their hands and sat down to eat.

“Yiyi, do you know why I’m cooking?”

At the dining table, Gu Kai placed the dishes he made into Bai Yiyi’s bowl, raised an eyebrow, and smiled as he asked.

Bai Yiyi was caught off guard by his question and sought clarification, “Why?”

Beside them, Qin Mu didn’t serve An Lin any food, he simply told her to eat more.

Gu Kai glanced at Qin Mu and An Lin, “Because on our way back, Ah Mu said he wouldn’t let An Lin learn to cook her whole life; he’s going to cook for An Lin forever. Hearing that, I immediately felt guilty.”

“Why feel guilty?”

Bai Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh, then curiously asked, “An Lin, you can’t cook?”

An Lin chuckled, “I haven’t learned yet.”

“Then you never need to learn. Qin Mu is such a good cook and says he won’t let you learn how to cook for your whole life. That would make so many women envious.”

Bai Yiyi showed an envious expression, which earned Gu Kai’s dissatisfaction, “Yiyi, don’t my dishes taste good?”

“They’re delicious.”

Bai Yiyi objectively evaluated.

“Then why envy An Lin?”

By the time Gu Kai finished talking, he had already piled her bowl high with food.

Bai Yiyi looked at the mound of food in her bowl and leisurely said, “Your food might be delicious, but there’s risk. What if I annoyed you one day and had to eat your food while listening to you talk about those scary surgeries…”
