Zhao Youyue was not the perfect daughter who was filial to her mother without activating "Xu Jing's possession" mode. She remembered her lofty and bossy mother shouted, "I will rather eat this book in my hand than taking a bite of this little sloth's cooking". The table was served with Sauteed Shredded Pork with Green Pepper, Fried Egg with Tomato, Sauteed Chinese Greens with Mushrooms, Braised Eggplant Slices, Kung Pao Chicken, Braised Pork, Borsch and Etc. afterwards. And before even having a taste, the dishes' appearance was already appetising and smelled great enough.

For someone like Zhao Jiayi and w.a.n.g Hua who have gotten used to deluxe meals, these simple home dishes seemed to have a greater attraction. Especially when everyone moved their body a while ago and it was already time for dinner. The hunger caused a sudden surge in their appet.i.te...

w.a.n.g Hua's face blushed, appearing to be more beautiful and adorable. Besides the frequent twin ponytail she had during her school days, now she maintained a straight and soft long black hair, resembling the style of a G.o.ddess. In the entire Jiangnan University, she was actually a very well-known professor with beauty. It was a pity that she was already a wifey now, truly disappointing.

Of course, to some people, having the wife attribute might actually be more alluring.

The truth was that w.a.n.g Hua really felt like filling a bowl of rice and started eating straight away. However, she felt uncomfortable by letting her daughter gazed her thoroughly. With a deep breath, she showed her majesty of a mother, using the bossy tone of a missy as before, "Little sloth, what are you staring at? Don't you know how to show some respects to daddy and mommy by serving us some rice?"

Zhao Youyue pursed her lips and smiled mildly, and filled two bowls of rice with seemingly obedience. The bowl with more rice was certainly pa.s.sed to her father. For the one with less rice, just as she placed it in front of her mother, immediately she moved it to her front. Then, while her mother stared with her jaws dropped, she brought the thick famous work of Redology and placed it in front of her mother's face. With a tender voice, "I think that a literature maiden who swallows the books is pretty Moe, old mama. The taste of the books should be a lot tastier than my cooking. Please enjoy."

If w.a.n.g Hua had a better insight, she would have noticed. Compared to the Zhao Youyue who was cooking, the current Zhao Youyue changed the way of addressing her mother. In future, there might even be more different forms of Zhao Youyue. Then, she could have gotten an inspiration to write an interesting novel named "My Frequently Possessed Daughter" or "I Might Have Given Birth to A Fake Daughter"...

However, w.a.n.g Hua was then choked to her silent by this naughty little sloth.Her blus.h.i.+ng red face blushed even further, given her history of teasing Zhao Youyue without holding back.What surprised her was that her daughter really cooked a tableful of feast. The appearance and fragrant was all good, and most probably it should taste good too. But now this little sloth wanted her to swallow the book!

w.a.n.g Hua stroke the table and stood up angrily, "I don't have such daughter like you. That's right, how would a diligent genius such as myself to give birth to such a plain little sloth! From now on, there will only be either you or me in this house! And don't call me old mama!"

Zhao Youyue felt her scalps tingling from her mother's words and stuck out her tongue innocently. Although her mother had already used similar kind of words countless times, she still had a little fear of it every time when her mother shouted it out. Zhao Youyue did not dare to challenge her mother further and quickly looked over to her father, showing the "crying for help" look.

Zhao Jiayi showed a bitter smile, and then he took the initiative to fill a bowl of rice for w.a.n.g Hua. He could always fill the perfect amount that could be finished by w.a.n.g Hua. This seemed like he had already gotten used to serving his wife, the missy with the worst temper in the house. But then, he was willing to make this sacrifice, perhaps this was called love.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of Zhao Youyue, this was a sickening pair of spoilt parents. It was so disgusting that she hoped that she did not have to see. She did not know what other families were like, but she felt that the family she was born in was a weird one. Her father was still normal, but her mother was...

Zhao Youyue always criticized her mother in her heart as a r.e.t.a.r.d in daily life. Her narcissism was far beyond help, and the missy temper was more like a child. She looked less than 30 years old, very pretty, had a mature charm and her visibility and glamour was far higher than Zhao Youyue. The truth was that she was actually already an obasan[1], but still continued to pretend. Also, she always carried some unfathomable literature books to show off, wanting Zhao Youyue to learn from her. Not to know that Zhao Youyue actually knew her mother secretly watched the romantic drama from Korea and j.a.pan with high interest. Besides, she laughed like a fool when she watched Bilibili Kichiku All-Stars[2]. Recently, she was also addicted to the "Can't leave you" by "Brother Bo Lan" the junk man.

Certainly, Zhao Youyue would never dare to speak her thoughts out, fearing that old mama would tie her up and beat her like a pinata. But wasn't this the truth? Seeing that old mama looked down on her earlier, if she was not under "Xu Jing's possession" mode that moment, she would have quarreled with her mom. How frustrating it was, she was trying to show some filial to this spoilt couple, just to receive the old mama's cynicism.

Under Zhao Jiayi's placate, w.a.n.g Hua who was as if a cat puffing up its fur finally calmed down. She got more hungry and could not wait to start eating. First, she used a spoon to take a sip of the Borsch. Her face revealed a captivated expression, how could this Borsch taste so good!

Was it because the Borsch was filled with her daughter's sincerity?

w.a.n.g Hua took a few more sips, feeling as if there was an unspeakable warmth. She closed her eyes, as if she had risen to the heavens!

What a touch to the heart. It was as if she was in the midst of despair but still having her daughter accompanying by her, protecting her quietly, and sharing the family pressure with her… What a good girl!

Wait, where did her family pressure come from?

After all, w.a.n.g Hua was a litterateur, filled with perceptual. Surprisingly, she could feel Xu Jing's love to her mother from the soup. It was indeed quite fantasized, but when she opened her eyes and saw a ponytailed little sloth puffing her cheeks gazed at her intriguingly, immediately she dismissed that illusion. Nevertheless, she showed an arrogant missy att.i.tude, evaluated with a weak voice, "Not bad for this soup!"

Zhao Youyue covered her mouth, trying hard to gulp back the laughter, while Zhao Jiayi started to gulp on the food. His table manners were not rude at all, instead there was a kind of elegance of n.o.bility. Still, his speed in eating was quite swift...

Seeing her daughter's reaction, w.a.n.g Hua's face turned blus.h.i.+ng red again, lying brazenly, "Mmmhmm, isn't this thanks to my partic.i.p.ation in the dinner preparation? Sure enough I'm much talented than this little sloth even in the culinary skills. There is still a long way for you to catch up with me!"

"Old mama, if you don't eat faster, daddy is already going to finish everything off." Zhao Youyue rolled her eyes, moved her chopsticks swiftly while reminded her mother.

"Wow! You scoundrel from the Zhao family! Slow down, don't s.n.a.t.c.h all my dinner made with love from my little sloth! And, don't call me 'old mama'!" Yelled w.a.n.g Hua to the two of them.

"It is just too yummy! I can't stop myself!" Zhao Jiayi replied with a satisfactory smile. At the same time, he did not forget to serve his wife and daughter with some dishes.

"Aww aww… Smells so good!" w.a.n.g Hua's face was full of happiness too.

This was probably the most unforgettable and delicious dinner in their entire life.
