Chapter 259: Came Knocking on the Door

When she reached home that night, Jian Ai cooked a bit of porridge. There was also a batch of pickled vegetables Chen Jin previously made in the fridge.

Over the past few days in Macau, Jian Ai had been eating and drinking without any restraint. She felt that she had gained weight, so she planned to eat something light to clear her stomach.

Most importantly, she did not know how to cook anything other than porridge and noodles.

There were no traces of Chen Jin coming back home. It was probably because the production team was busier. He might need to stay by Qinghuan’s side for a longer period. However, she didn’t know how Chen Jin was doing and if he had already adapted.

“Is Elder Sister at home?”

Just as she placed dinner on the table, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

This voice was somewhat unfamiliar. Jian Ai couldn’t help but look at the door curiously. In the next second, the door of the house was pulled open from the outside. Then, she saw Li Xia carrying something into the house.

“Younger Aunt?”

Jian Ai went to attend the wedding and had naturally seen Li Xia. However, she did not expect the other party to suddenly come to their house. She could not help but feel surprised.

“It’s Xiao Ai, right?” Li Xia smiled warmly. After placing the thing in her hand at the door, she quickly walked up to Jian Ai. Then, she sized Jian Ai up and nodded while praising, “Tsk, tsk. You’re as beautiful as your mother.”

Although Jian Ai had no feelings for Wang Yunfa, she did not slap a smiling person. Facing Li Xia, who had suddenly come to visit, Jian Ai did not show too much coldness. She said, “Why is Younger Aunt here suddenly?”

Her younger uncle’s house was located south of Zhonglou District. Although the two districts were next to each other, they were not close.

Li Xia pulled a stool and sat down when she heard that. Then, she smiled and said, “I came here once two days ago, but the door was locked and no one was at home. I was on the way to your grandmother’s house and happened to pass by. I thought I would come and take a look.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xia looked around and asked, “Where are your mother and brother?”

“They’re not at home. I’m alone,” Jian Ai said.

“Oh…” No one knew that Wang Yunmei was hospitalized. Even Wang Yunzhi did not know, so Li Xia did not think too much about it. She just thought that Wang Yunmei had gone to work and that she had come at the wrong time.

When her gaze landed on the porridge and pickled vegetables on the dining table, a look of disdain flashed across Li Xia’s eyes. However, she pretended to be concerned and said, “Oh, why are you eating this for dinner? Didn’t your mother cook for you?”

“My stomach hasn’t been feeling well recently. I feel better after drinking some porridge,” Jian Ai said casually.

Wang Yunmei was not at home. Li Xia thought that she had made a wasted trip again. However, she had to work during the day and could only come at night.

There was nothing to talk about with a fourteen-year-old girl. Li Xia immediately stood up and said to Jian Ai, “Xiao Ai, quickly eat then. I still have to go to your grandmother’s house. When your mother is back, remember to tell her that I was here.”

As she spoke, Li Xia walked to the door and picked up two plastic bags. There were some fruits and a roasted duck inside. “Aunt bought this for you. You can’t just eat porridge. Eat the duck leg later. They’re delicious!”

Jian Ai didn’t refuse and just nodded with a smile. “Thank you, Aunt. There’s nothing good at home today, so I won’t keep you for dinner.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine. I’ll go to your grandmother’s place to eat. Eat quickly,” Li Xia said and opened the door with the remaining two plastic bags.

After Li Xia left, the smile on Jian Ai’s face gradually faded. She looked down at the fruits and roasted duck in her hand and curled her lips. She thought that there was no one at home, so it would be a waste not to eat them.

She turned around and went into the kitchen with the roasted duck.
