Li Songyun almost didn’t recognize Jiao Jian. Jiao Jian’s new outfit today had swept away all the decadent air from him. The strong smell of tobacco was replaced by a toffee-scented perfume.
While the live camera was focused on Tang Bai tasting the food, Li Songyun lowered his voice and asked Jiao Jian, “Why are you wearing candy-scented perfume?”
Jiao Jian hesitated for a moment and whispered back, “I saw in your circle of friends that you said that the candy-flavored pheromones smell good.”
Had his circle of friends said this?
Li Songyun fell into deep thought. After pondering for a long time, he suddenly remembered that he had indeed made such a remark a long time ago, but it was more than ten years ago. At that time, Tang Bai had just differentiated into an omega, and Jiang Youwen took Tang Bai to test the taste of his pheromones, which tasted like sweet candy.
In the past, the Tang family always let Tang Bai wear alpha clothes. When the gender differentiation was completed, he accompanied Jiang Youwen to pick out omega children’s clothes.
Tang Bai was very cute when he was a child, and he was even more adorable when he put on a lace dress, which could melt people’s hearts. He held little Tang Bai in his arms. Little Tang Bai had just completed differentiation at this time, and when he got excited, he would emit pheromones that smelled like sweet candy.
“Uncle Li, does everyone dislike my pheromones?” Little Tang Bai buried his face in his arms, and his little hands grasped his clothes like a kitten’s paws.
“Why do you say that?” he asked Tang Bai softly.
“Grandpa, Dad, and Mom are all unhappy when they smell my pheromones.”
He didn’t know how to comfort Tang Bai, so he could only say softly, “But Uncle Li likes candy-flavored pheromones the most.”
At this time, Tang Bai already had his own light computer and could check his Moments. When he got home that day, he specially posted a message to his Moments, reiterating that he really liked the candy-flavored pheromones.
That post on WeChat Moments was liked by the little Tang Bai.
Li Songyun smelled the artificial toffee flavor on Jiao Jian and didn’t know how to explain it for a moment, but the smell was much better than the smell of cigarettes.
“Although it still tastes like vermicelli, it tastes better for some reason.” Tang Bai ate the pink bunny mecha with a slurp of food, and replied to the comments on the screen that read “How can you eat a bunny when the bunny is so cute?” He said, “Next time I will teach you how to make delicious rabbit meat.”
Barrage:”!”
After Tang Bai finished eating the fruit, he helped Li Songyun take out the cleaned grass carp. He clapped his hands and killed the fish quickly and efficiently, removing the head and tail, and the fish meat was sliced in a few strokes of the knife.
Li Songyun also joined the team of fish filleting. While trimming the sliced fish into a fan shape, he explained: “The dish I’m going to teach you today is called Peony Fish Meat[1], a famous imperial delicacy. It sounds difficult, but it’s not difficult to make. It only requires patience, carefulness and dexterity. The finished product is elegant and beautiful. It’s a home-cooked dish suitable for entertaining guests.”
Tang Bai nodded beside him, “I have also made delicacies from ancient books, such as Buddha Jumps Over the Wall[2]. It is not difficult to make, just like Peony Fish Fillet, it is just time-consuming and labor-intensive. If everyone is interested, I can also teach you how to make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall at home if I have the chance.”
Barrage:””
[Redefined home cooking.]
[Do you omegas from the cooking department of the etiquette school do all these at home?! I have a new life goal! Marry an omega from the etiquette school as my wife!]
[No need, the teacher really thinks too highly of me]
Although Tang Bai helped, the process of processing the fish fillets was still relatively long. In addition to shaping the fish fillets, it was also necessary to press the fish fillets with hands or knock the fish fillets with tools to loosen them and facilitate shaping.
While marinating fish fillets, Li Songyun would take time to answer questions from the barrage, such as one barrage asking “What does Gu Tunan like to eat”.
Li Songyun had no psychological burden about selling his son. He replied: “Xiao Nan didn’t have any particular preference for food before. Now he occasionally buys some desserts home, like macarons.”
Gu Tunan didn’t eat many sweets when he was a child.
He didn’t know why he suddenly started liking sweets.
At this time, Jiao Jian was sitting on the sofa in the living room handling official business. He wanted to finish the work at hand as soon as possible so that he could help Li Songyun.
At this moment, Jiao Jian heard the doorbell.
Were Li Songyun’s friends here to celebrate Li Songyun’s move?
Jiao Jian stood up and walked to the door. He saw a pair of gray-blue eyes through the peephole.
Gu Tunan?
He had heard from Li Songyun that Gu Tunan would also come to the new home tonight.
Jiao Jian narrowed his eyes and after seeing the face that looked similar to Gu Tunan but more mature and stern, his originally lazy expression instantly became alert, like a lion staring at an intruder in his territory.
“Major General Gu, I remember that you have divorced Li Songyun. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to disturb Songyun as his ex-husband?”
Gu Mian heard an alpha’s lazy voice coming from the communication device on the door. The tone was exactly the same as the alpha that appeared in Li Songyun’s live broadcast.
On his way here, he remembered why he felt that this alpha looked familiar. When he called up the surveillance video at home, Gu Mian saw this alpha and Li Songyun walking into their home side by side and entering their bedroom openly. When Li Songyun cut the wedding photo in half without hesitation, the alpha said that it was well cut.
Saying it was time to embrace a new life.
However, the alpha in the surveillance video was unkempt, with heavy stubble and long white hair that slightly covered his eyes, such that he looked listless, while the alpha who just appeared in the live broadcast seemed to look ten years younger after tidying himself up.
“Who are you?” Gu Mian stood in front of an unfamiliar door, his handsome face looking cold and stern.
“Me?” The voice said without hesitation, “There’s no need to explain to you the relationship between me and my brother.”
Gu Mian rang the doorbell again expressionlessly, “Open the door.”
Jiao Jian didn’t want to open the door, but he didn’t know whether Gu Mian had obtained Li Songyun’s consent to come to his house. Maybe Gu Mian came to discuss divorce with Li Songyun.
Jiao Jian was not clear about Li Songyun’s attitude towards Gu Mian. Li Songyun seldom talked about his marriage with Gu Mian. When asked why he wanted to divorce, Li Songyun said that he simply wanted to be himself, as if it had nothing to do with Gu Mian.
Li Songyun never said anything bad about Gu Mian and the Gu family. He only said that he was not good enough and that being the perfect Mrs. Gu was too stressful for him.
Even while doing something as radical as cutting out the wedding photos, Li Songyun simply said: “Saying goodbye to the old life.”
During the past twenty years, whenever Jiao Jian inquired about Li Songyun, all he heard was about the perfect marriage between Li Songyun and Gu Mian. They had four children, and the couple loved and respected each other. With the protection of the Gu family, the Li family’s business grew bigger and bigger, and the Gu family was also very satisfied with Li Songyun.
Li Songyun seemed to be living a happy life.
He was so happy that he felt that his expression of love to Li Songyun would just be a disturbance.
