Seeing that Mommy was a bit soft-hearted, Yuan Man quickly continued to plead for Daddy. "Mommy, I'll be honest with you. I just went to find Daddy."

Lan Xiaoling could guess that, so she didn't show much surprise.

Instead, she affectionately rubbed the child's hair and sighed. "The construction site is very dangerous. Go there less in the future!"

Yuan Man asked, "If I don't go, what should I do if I miss Daddy?"

This......

Lan Xiaoling was really in a dilemma!

She didn't want to see Gabriel, but she couldn't stop the child from seeing his father either. So, faced with this question from the child, she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Yuan Man continued, "Also, when I saw Daddy, I found that he seemed to be coughing a bit. He should have caught a cold from the wind at night!"

After saying that, the little guy observed Mommy's expression and found that she was clearly a bit flustered. He secretly rejoiced in his heart.

"Is he having a cold?" Lan Xiaoling thought for a while and then said, "There are still some medicines at home. You can take them to Daddy to eat tonight!"

"But even if he takes the medicine and has no place to sleep, he'll still get sick!"

The child's words put Lan Xiaoling in a difficult situation.

She actually knew that Yuan Man was overly smart and had been more mature than his peers since childhood.

This was all because Gabriel and the others had put a lot of effort into cultivating Yuan Man. Yuan Man's starting point was higher than that of most people, so he was very quick-witted and had a lot of ideas.

But what he said was also right. Standing in the wind and guarding for a long time was not a solution.

"Mommy, let Daddy come and live with us!"

Seeing that the time was right, Yuan Man quickly grabbed Lan Xiaoling's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Mommy, is that okay?"

"Mommy......"

Faced with the child's pleading, Lan Xiaoling finally had no choice but to give in. "All right, you can ask him to come. But we've agreed that when the weather gets better, he still can't live with us!"

Yuan Man knew when to stop and immediately agreed. "Okay, I promise Mommy!"

After saying that, he ran away happily.

Lan Xiaoling quickly called him, "Where are you going?"

Yuan Man turned back and grinned at her. "To tell Daddy this good news!"

At that moment, Lan Xiaoling had a feeling of falling into a trap.

But what she had said couldn't be taken back.

So, in the evening, Gabriel appeared at the door of the small courtyard on time.

Yuan Man had been waiting for a long time and quickly trotted out to greet him.

When Mommy wasn't paying attention, he gave Daddy a high-five.

"You're really my son. Well done!" Gabriel praised Yuan Man without hesitation. Then he bent down, picked him up, and stepped into the house.

At this time, Lan Xiaoling was cooking in the kitchen, and the sound of stir-frying came from time to time.

Gabriel put Yuan Man down and then went into the kitchen to help.

Lan Xiaoling was still busy. As the man approached, a mature aura suddenly hit her, making her back stiffen slightly, and even her stir-frying action stopped.

She suppressed the nervousness in her heart and slowly turned her head to look behind her. Gabriel was washing vegetables by the sink.

She had an irresistible infatuation with this man. Now, being in such a narrow space together, Lan Xiaoling felt that it was difficult for her to breathe.

"You go out and play with the children. I can handle it here!"

To break the awkwardness, Lan Xiaoling told him to leave.

Gabriel also turned his head and smiled gently at her. "They don't need me to accompany them. I'll help you cook!"

Lan Xiaoling suddenly didn't know what to say. She just let out an "oh" and continued with the stir-frying.

However, because of the man's presence, she was so nervous that her nerves were on edge.

After Gabriel washed the vegetables, he came closer to hand her the seasonings.

The distance between the two of them got closer and closer, and Lan Xiaoling's heart skipped several beats. As a result, when she was about to stir-fry the green vegetables with oil, because she put the vegetables in too quickly, the oil splashed out and landed directly on Lan Xiaoling's arm.

When the pain hit, Lan Xiaoling let out a cry of pain.

Gabriel's first reaction was to quickly grab Lan Xiaoling's hand and lead her to the sink, using ice water to rinse the wound for her.

This action came so suddenly, and because Gabriel circled Lan Xiaoling in his arms, when they were so close to each other, they could feel each other's body temperature.

Lan Xiaoling was stunned and forgot to struggle, just letting the man deal with the wound for her.

Her hand was cold from the ice water, but her face was burning red.

And time seemed to stand still at this moment.

The smell of food filled the air, and at the same time, there was the intertwined breath of the two of them, as well as the sound of their heartbeats that were beating non-stop due to nervousness.

Behind them, the two children crept closer.

When they saw the scene in front of them, Yuan Man secretly covered his mouth and laughed. "See, Daddy and Mommy are the most well-matched couple. Look at how red Mommy's face is. She must be shy!"

Yuan Bao touched his forehead, looking a bit incredulous. "How did you manage to make Mommy agree to let Daddy live in?"

Yuan Man pointed at his forehead proudly. "Of course, it's all thanks to my brain!"

Yuan Bao looked at his elder brother with admiration and asked, "So, what should we do next?"

Yuan Man winked cunningly. "Go to bed after dinner!"

Then, they would continue to make things happen!

Anyway, Daddy had already moved in. Before he left, he had to make Mommy forgive Daddy, and then his plan would be completed.

"But you have to cooperate with me next. We brothers will work together to win over Daddy and Mommy!"

The naughty little guy even touched his nose, looking just like a little fox.

Yuan Bao nodded and said, "Don't worry. Although I'm not as smart as you, I promise I won't hold you back!"

The two little guys were plotting a plan to bring their parents together, while Gabriel was still holding Lan Xiaoling's hand and rinsing it with warm water.

Just when the atmosphere was still tense, a burning smell wafted over from the stove.

Lan Xiaoling then realized that there was still something cooking in the pot!

"Oh no, the food is burnt!"

Lan Xiaoling put away her emotions, pushed Gabriel away, and then rushed to the stove to turn off the fire.

This village was relatively backward. Instead of gas or natural gas in the city, they still used the most primitive cooking stove!

Looking at the blackened chicken in the pot, Lan Xiaoling said dejectedly, "It's all burnt. We can't eat it anymore!"

"It doesn't matter. Just make it again!"

Gabriel came closer, directly poured out the blackened food in the pot, and then took the initiative to wash the pot. After washing it clean, he said to Lan Xiaoling, "You can take a rest. I'll do it."

Thinking about Gabriel's status, he should have never cooked before, so Lan Xiaoling shook her head and said, "No need. Your status isn't suitable for cooking."

This sentence was said without thinking, but it was taken to heart by the listener!

Although Gabriel was a bit disappointed, he still maintained a gentle smile. "No matter what my status is, when I meet the woman I like, I'm just an ordinary man."
