Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1239: 1238 Gu Family’s Secret Congee Recipe

After Wen Ran left, Bai Yiyi tried to lull Tongtong to sleep, but ended up falling asleep herself.

Bai Yiyi slept in a daze, when suddenly her nose started to itch.

She raised her hand to rub her nose, planning to continue sleeping. As soon as she pulled her hand away, it itched again. With her eyes closed, Bai Yiyi reached out for Tongtong beside her, not touching her yet, when she heard Tongtong giggling.

She opened her eyes and saw not just Tongtong.

There was also Gu Kai, the culprit responsible for her stomach ache.

“How did you get here?”

Bai Yiyi’s expression changed, and her drowsiness dissipated instantly.

Gu Kai sat on the chair in front of the bed, with Tongtong in his arms, lying halfway across the bed, her eyes squinted with laughter, “Mommy, it tickles.”

Bai Yiyi followed the direction of Tongtong’s pointing finger and saw Gu Kai holding a strand of hair in his hand. She frowned, “Did you use this to tickle my nose just now?”

Gu Kai’s brow was relaxed, and his sexy lips curved into a pleasant smile.

Being questioned, he flicked the hair between his forefinger and thumb, showing no hint of apology as he spoke, “This is your hair. You fell asleep and left Tongtong aside. If I didn’t wake you up, should I just watch her fall off the bed and not care?”

“Are you not a person?”

Bai Yiyi angrily questioned, what kind of person was he, talking about watching Tongtong possibly fall off the bed while he was right there.

“Mommy, Daddy.”

Tongtong’s clear voice interrupted between the two, and Gu Kai used his gaze to warn Bai Yiyi not to lose her temper in front of Tongtong.

Bai Yiyi had no choice but to suppress her anger. In the midst of excitement, Tongtong continued, “Mommy, a present.”

As she spoke, she pointed her little hand to the side.

Bai Yiyi looked in that direction, a look of astonishment on her face, “What are all these?”

“Stuff that won’t kill you. Weren’t you having a stomach ache? You said it yourself at noon, you shouldn’t eat spicy food and act tough. Now look, you’ve become a patient, and I’ve become a criminal.”

Gu Kai put Tongtong down on the bed and picked up the things he bought from the side, “This is for nurturing your stomach. Don’t harbor malice in the future; in the end, the one getting hurt isn’t you, it’s your stomach, really pitiable.”

Bai Yiyi looked somewhat dazedly at the things he bought.

She told herself that Gu Kai was definitely not concerned about her. From those harsh words, it was clear that he was not concerned about her. It was probably because Ranran called him that he bought these things to see her.

“I don’t need them, take them away.”

With this thought, Bai Yiyi’s face darkened, and she responded coldly.

Gu Kai snorted, “Bai Yiyi, if you want to see Tongtong every day, stop making yourself sick, and don’t foolishly torment yourself. Especially during your period, it’s extremely stupid.”

“You, how do you know?”

Bai Yiyi’s expression of anger changed to one of shame and indignation; her face turned slightly red.

“I am a doctor.”

Gu Kai spoke with the air of an expert healer, then picked up Tongtong and said, “Tongtong, let’s go downstairs. Dad will cook for you tonight, okay?”

“Okay, Daddy, fish.”

Tongtong happily clapped her small hands. Daddy bought her favorite fish and was going to cook for her – of course, she was thrilled.

Bai Yiyi got out of bed and washed her face. While combing her hair, she saw the stomach-nurturing food Gu Kai bought in the mirror and felt an inexplicable emotion stirring within her.

That feeling was very foreign.

It also made her somewhat frantic; she unconsciously tightened her grip on the comb.

Distractedly looking in the mirror, the image of being forcefully kissed by him, and that accidental kiss in the parking lot that night, appeared before her eyes.

My heartbeat suddenly missed a beat.

Bai Yiyi pursed her lips, not knowing why, but she remembered the two intimate encounters with Gu Kai so vividly.

Even, every time she thought about it, the feeling was as clear as if she had just been that close to him.

Bai Yiyi, you must be crazy.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed her emotions.

***

In the living room, Bai Yuqin was playing with Tongtong on the sofa, and when she saw Bai Yiyi come downstairs, Tongtong immediately slid off the sofa and ran to Bai Yiyi, “Mommy, Daddy, making fish.”

Bai Yiyi smiled, picked up Tongtong and gave her a kiss, then set her down.

Tongtong, holding Bai Yiyi’s hand, insisted on dragging her to the kitchen to watch her dad cook, excited as can be.

Bai Yiyi, with no choice, let Tongtong lead her by the hand and pushed open the kitchen door to be greeted by a rich scent of fish. Gu Kai’s handsome figure stood in front of the colored glaze counter, showing only his back to them.

Hearing voices, he turned around, his handsome face breaking into a charming smile. Those hands, usually holding surgical instruments, now wielded a spatula, and around his waist was the apron her mother commonly wore when cooking.

This image of him was strange, yet Bai Yiyi, looking at him, didn’t find it disagreeable at all.

“Another dish and we’ll be ready.”

Gu Kai’s voice was clear and cheerful, giving Bai Yiyi the illusion that this man was not the usually sarcastic and harsh Gu Kai.

Seeing Bai Yiyi staring at him in a daze, Gu Kai raised an eyebrow and said, “Let Tongtong go play on the sofa, and come in to help with the dishes.”

“Oh.”

Bai Yiyi pursed her lips, bent down, and told Tongtong gently to wait on the sofa.

Tongtong obediently replied with a ‘okay’ and ran back to the sofa to continue playing with her Barbie doll.

Bai Yiyi walked into the kitchen, helping to bring the bowls, chopsticks, and food to the dining room.

“What kind of porridge is this?”

She asked curiously while serving the porridge.

Gu Kai had just plated the last dish and, hearing her question, responded casually, “Gu Family’s secret recipe porridge.”

After speaking, he stepped forward, handed her the dish he had just plated, leaned in, and whispered in her ear, “I misspoke upstairs just now. You can continue to torture your stomach if you want, it doesn’t matter. As long as it’s not stomach cancer, it won’t kill you.”

“…”

Bai Yiyi glared at him fiercely and turned to walk out of the kitchen with the dish.

At the dining table, Bai Yuqin announced some astonishing news.

“Yiyi, I’m going to take a trip in a few days. Some old friends called and invited me to travel with them.”

“Ah, a trip, Mom, is it Aunt Luo and Aunt Qiu and them?”

Bai Yiyi blinked in surprise.

“Yes, it’s them. I plan to join them. It might be about ten days, and we’ll be traveling with a tour group,” Bai Yuqin said calmly as she put down her chopsticks.

Bai Yiyi nodded smilingly, “Sure, it’s good for you to get out more. When exactly?”

“From the first to the tenth of next month. Judging by Aunt Luo’s tone, if we have a good time, we might extend the trip. I wasn’t planning on going, but Aunt Luo is going abroad and once she leaves, who knows when we’ll be able to meet again.”

Bai Yiyi cheerfully said, “Mom, go ahead, I’ll take care of Tongtong, don’t worry. Enjoy yourself out there. Today’s the twentieth, so you still have ten days left. I’ll go shopping with you this weekend to buy some new clothes.”
