Shen Ning felt heartbroken listening to Ding Ding.

The child had just recovered from a cold, and his stomach and throat were still delicate. How could he eat spicy food?

“Ding Ding, what do you want to eat? Mommy will make it for you right now,” she immediately asked.

“Mommy, 1 want plain congee, stir-fried pork with sour green beans, and some thin-skinned dumplings,” Ding Ding replied after a moment of thought.

“Alright, you wait here for a moment. Mommy will go down and make it for you,” Shen Ning kissed his forehead and turned to go downstairs.

“Mommy, 1 want to go with you,” Ding Ding didn’t want to be alone in the bedroom, so he followed her downstairs.

In the kitchen, Shen Ning got busy.

This kitchen was not unfamiliar to her. She had spent two years here, cooking and preparing meals for Li Zhenting every day. She was quite skilled at it.

She cooked the congee, chopped the meat, kneaded the dough, and stir-fried the vegetables with ease.

Ding Ding stood by, occasionally chatting with her. Wherever Shen Ning went, he followed closely, like a little shadow.

When Li Zhenting returned home, he walked into the bustling kitchen. Steam rose from the pots, and the woman was focused on cooking, while the child stood beside her, pointing and asking questions. It was such a warm and harmonious scene.

No matter how you looked at it, they appeared to be a loving mother and son!

He stood there for a moment, feeling a bit lost.

“Alright, it’s time to eat,” Shen Ning wiped her hands on her apron and picked up the ladle, lifting a steaming bowl of thin-skinned dumplings from the stove.

“Time for dinner!” Ding Ding exclaimed with a big smile, quickly climbing onto his seat at the dining table, placing his hands on the table, and looking eagerly at his mommy.

Shen Ning arranged the food and smiled as she uncovered the pot.

Immediately, a delightful aroma filled the air.

“Wow, this looks amazing! Thank you, Mommy,” Ding Ding clapped his little hands with excitement.

He didn’t even notice Li Zhenting standing on the side; he was too busy thanking his mommy.

“Here, let’s eat.” Shen Ning scooped a bowl of congee for Ding Ding and began serving him the dumplings, all the while reminding him, “Be careful, it’s hot.”

Li Zhenting suddenly felt his stomach rumbling; he had forgotten to eat dinner in his rush to finish his work and come home to see his son earlier. Now, the delicious aroma of the food made his stomach ache with hunger.

He cleared his throat deliberately and walked over, wearing a stern expression.

When Shen Ning looked up and saw him, her face changed.

How long had this devil been here? Did he just hear Ding Ding call her “Mommy”? But judging by his calm and indifferent expression, he probably hadn’t heard it.

“Mr. Li, you’re back,” she greeted him indifferently, then lowered her head to continue taking care of Ding Ding’s meal, treating him like air.

“Daddy,” Ding Ding simply called him once and then focused on eating.

Li Zhenting sat down at the dining table with an icy demeanor.

Six years ago, every day he sat at the dining table in this calm and composed manner, Shen Ning would serve him food, scoop soup for him, and care for him like a nanny, making him as comfortable as a child.

But today, after sitting down at the dining table, she didn’t even glance at him, which made him feel uneasy.

He cleared his throat again.

“Daddy, if you want to eat, you can serve yourself,” even Ding Ding noticed his thoughts and spoke without lifting his head.

Well, now Li Zhenting felt a bit embarrassed.

Shen Ning also raised her head, “Mr. Li, 1 made quite a bit today. If you want to eat, you can serve yourself.”

After saying that, she lowered her head to scoop some sour bean stir-fry for Ding Ding.

Well, Li Zhenting was really hungry now. The familiar taste of the food had a fatal temptation for him. Shen Ning had nothing to do with him now, and he couldn’t force him to give him the same treatment anymore.

He stood up, served himself some congee, and started eating the dumplings heartily..
