You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 322

Chapter 322 He Is Not Your Husband

Wu Nian listened attentively as if she had gained an insight. “Sure. Thank you, Madam. How about the children? What do they like to eat?”

Wu Nian’s phone rang and interrupted the conversation.

She excused herself and walked to the corner to answer the call.

“Nian, I have good news! I am free for the next few days because Shen Yiyan is going overseas for an interview. Woo-hoo! Let’s go on a holiday!” Liu Yan’s excited voice was on the other side of the line.

“Did you forget I’ve found a full-time job? There are four off days in a month. I will shift the dates together next time to see if we can go on a holiday. It’s not a good idea to take leave right after starting the job,” Wu Nian said apologetically.

“Alright. Then give me a free day tomorrow. Let’s go on a day trip! I know of a good place for fishing.” Liu Yan continued, still in high spirits.

“Sure. See you tomorrow then!” Wu Nian hung up shortly. She opened up the voice recorder in her phone secretly and placed it into her pocket. She walked towards Zhou Hailan and continued, “Sorry, my friend called earlier. So, what do the children like eating?”

“No problem at all. Well, Xin loves durian and garlic-flavored crayfish, but he hates spicy food. He cannot accept even a tinge of spiciness. As for Yanny, his foster parents were from Horington, and they love spicy food. So Yanny naturally prefers spicy foods,” Zhou Hailan replied enthusiastically.

“I’ve noted down. Thank you, Madam.”

“You’re welcome. I’ll cook the rice first and steam the braised pork,” Zhou Hailan said while washing the rice.

Wu Nian used butter to deep-fry the prawns. Once they were cooked, she added boiled egg yolks, seasoning, and started frying again.

“Ms. Wu, you really know how to cook,” Zhou Hailan complimented.

“When I was at the orphanage, I was the one who cooked for the children. So, I guess it’s passable,” Wu Nian said. She scooped up the prawns and prepared the final dish.

“Ms. Wu, it smells delicious. I’m so hungry.” Gu Yan ran into the kitchen, craning his neck to look into the stove.

She handed him a bowl and a pair of chopsticks. “You can eat the Cola wings and big prawns first.”

“Thank you, Ms. Wu. You are the best aunt I have ever met, just like a robot cat.”

His praise warmed her. “Next time, you can tell me what you like to eat, and I will make it for you.”

Zhou Hailan looked on as Gu Yan chewed on the chicken wing. Her face was strangely pale. “Xin is not that obedient. It must have been bothersome to you.”

“They have their own personality. If every child is the same, then what’s the point of life?” Wu Nian answered while frying the omelet.

“I will have to trouble you with Xin,” Zhou Hailan said gently.

“No problem.” While waiting for the omelets to be ready, Wu Nian soaked the mushrooms in hot water, washed the vegetables, and dried them.

“I will be done in five minutes. Why don’t you bring out the rest of the dishes? Ms. Wu is definitely someone who can take care of children. You know their taste well,” Zhou Hailan complimented.

Wu Nian let out a soft and polite laugh. She went out of the kitchen with the dishes and said to the children, “Dinner is ready soon, so wash your hands first.”

“Ms. Wu, the chicken wings you cooked are so yummy. And those big prawns are even more delicious than the ones in the restaurants. I must be in heaven,” Gu Yan said gleefully.

“How can it be as delicious as you say?” Gu Ruoxin bit on the chicken wing and spat it out. “It’s disgusting. I’ve never eaten such awful food.”
