Triplets: Lucky Mommy Is A Beautiful Badass Chapter 263 - Well Known in the City 8

Chapter 263: Well Known in the City 8

The undertaker’s work was very neat and efficient.

It was still raining heavily when Qi Qingyao woke up in the morning. ‘When did I fall asleep last night? I was so anxious! I didn’t even know what time I fell asleep!’

She stretched and looked around, making sure everything was safe.

She walked to the entrance and glanced around.

The rain was very heavy. It was quiet outside, everything very serene.

When she walked back to the side living hall, Jiang Yeqian and Si Jin were already sitting there, drinking tea.

Qi Qingyao asked, “Were there really a.s.sa.s.sins last night?”

“Yes, but only a few. Not many.” Jiang Yeqian answered trivially.

Si Jin held his teacup and drank the tea quietly, completely ignoring the question.

Qi Qingyao adhered to the agreement last night and quickly went to cook. Fortunately, when Lu Yan hired people to move out yesterday, only the valuables were taken away. Everything else had been left behind. Si Jin very obediently ran over to help light the fire. Qi Qingyao wanted to wash the vegetables in cold water, but Si Jin had already boiled the water and started was.h.i.+ng the veggies with practiced ease. Qi Qingyao knew how to cook, but she was just usually lazy.

She quickly made four dishes and one soup. The porridge in the back pot was also done.

The children were learning how to read from Jiang Yeqian. After bringing the dishes to the dining hall, she called everyone over to eat.

The three adults and three children sat down together.

Xiaobao looked at the simple dishes with sparkling eyes. “Is this all Mommy’s cooking?”

“Just eat!” Qi Qingyao seldom cooked. She felt very embarra.s.sed by the small boy’s gaze. She declared in advance, “If it doesn’t taste good or if it’s not to your liking, just endure it. Don’t say it out loud.”

Everyone ate the meal that she cooked herself rather happily.

Jiang Yeqian took a bite and turned his head to look at her profile. At this moment, he kind of wished that time would stand still.

That was because he had never felt this much warmth in his life.

It felt like…home.

Everyone ate this meal very happily. After they finished the dishes, Qi Qingyao looked at the table full of bowls and started loathing the fact that this was not an inn.

Qi Qingyao kicked Jiang Yeqian’s leg. “Even though you worked hard last night, you’d also eaten well, so you have to wash the dishes!”

“I’ve worked so hard and I still have to wash the dishes?” Jiang Yeqian widened his eyes and said in disbelief.

Qi Qingyao pursed her lips and said with a smile, “Si Jin and I cooked together. It’s only natural that you have to wash the dishes.”

Jiang Yeqian, “…”

Si Jin had even kindly helped him bring the dirty dishes to the kitchen.

Jiang Yeqian stood in the kitchen all alone and looked at the messy room. He was not sure how to deal with it.

He rolled up his sleeves and boiled some hot water before he started was.h.i.+ng the dishes.

He washed the dishes while thinking dejectedly that if Zhao Xin were to see him like this, he would think he had lost his mind.

The superior Head Grand Secretariat, who was also the Head of Zhaixing Administration, was actually humbly was.h.i.+ng dishes!!

He had all these angry thoughts while was.h.i.+ng dishes.

What was he even planning!

Staying here, being someone’s bodyguard in the middle of the night, and having to wash the dishes in the day!

What sin did he commit to deserve this!

‘Forget it, I’m not was.h.i.+ng anymore! I’m going to hurry up and leave.’

Jiang Yeqian wiped his hands and left the kitchen, leaving behind the dirty dishes. He planned on simply leaving through the back door. He would not play this dumb master and servant game with her anymore.

However, as soon as reached the kitchen door, he found that his legs would not move any further.

Jiang Yeqian turned back. He continued was.h.i.+ng the dishes while muttering to himself.

“I want to look for the Master Architect Li Qinglian, and I want to look for Su Hexiao! She’s the only person who has a connection with them. I’m doing this for the sake of the Zhaixing Administration! As the head, I have to take the lead and endure hards.h.i.+ps! To get information!”

When he had washed up to the final two dishes.

A thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Yeqian’s mind.

Everyone said that she had gone missing for a few days when she was visiting relatives in Qingzhou City four years ago. After she came back, her belly swelled in just a few months. That meant that the children’s father could be someone from Qingzhou City!

He seemed to have also been in Qingzhou City for a bit four years ago.

During that time, he was there to investigate Eastern Ling’s spies.

It seemed that he needed to send a spy of his own to look into the events of that year.

Wait, what if he figured out who the father was? If he did, should he tell her? Would the father acknowledge the children? If he did, then he… ahem, well, it had nothing to do with him!

He would just find out about it and let her know. With her current level of intelligence, if the children’s father wanted to be with her…

Then, he…

No.

He… did not like her. They did not have that kind of relations.h.i.+p.

As a friend, he was just very concerned about whether she would be with the children’s father…
