Chapter 992 - Isn’t It Good to be Alive? (1/2)

Upon seeing the child run off like a waddling duck, he could clearly see the languid back view of the woman in the kitchen from the corner of his eye.

His lips curled up suddenly, and his heart also felt full. It was as though the emptiness in the huge house had become all filled up because of their arrival.

Nangong Lengyu was still okay with frying eggs. She still couldn’t control the fire well for cooking soft-boiled eggs. After simmering them in water, all of them became fully-cooked eggs.

Ling Sheng did not say anything during the meal. Anyway, as long as it was made by her mother, she would say it was delicious. As a chef, she hated people who did not know how to cook or simply sat back yet were still picky!

In the end, the picky troublemaker arrived immediately. After taking a bite of the egg, Huo Ci muttered, “Why isn’t it runny?”

Ling Sheng sighed in her heart. Isn’t it good to be alive? Her mother had woken up so early to prepare breakfast. Not only did a big idle guy like him not help at all, but he had even started complaining so she kicked him under the table.

Look at him. He must have gone out to run and sweat on purpose early in the morning. He could take a shower after sweating. Right now, he was wearing a bathrobe with the collar slightly open, revealing his attractive collarbones. His hair was not completely dry, and the dense humidity made his handsome face look even more seductive.

Oh my, one truly couldn’t afford to mess with a 40-year-old man! His sexy appearance made one scream with how tantalizing it was!

However, even though he was dressed like this, her mother had not given him another look. Her gaze never landed on him from start to end.

Surprisingly, Nangong Lengyu didn’t get angry and even ignored him. She didn’t even look at him. She only told Ling Sheng, “Sheng Sheng, Mom will be able to produce an egg with a soft yolk after practicing a few more times.”

The eggs had already been fried and she did not have the habit of wasting food either. Since she didn’t manage to cook soft-boiled eggs, they would make do with these!

Xiaoqi, who was a quick-witted kid, took a big bite of the fried egg and smiled till his eyes curved. “Grandma, it’s delicious! The eggs are delicious!”

Ling Sheng said, “Mom, this is good. It’s delicious. I like it a lot.”

Huo Ci looked at the two bootlickers in front of him and harrumphed inwardly. Since she did not know how to cook, why did she ask them what type they wanted to eat? So unnecessary!

After dinner, Ling Sheng went to the audition and drove the new car her mother had given her.

Nangong Lengyu could have driven a car herself. But she wanted to be with her daughter so she got a lift to the company.

Huo Ci’s flight to Europe in the afternoon was to film an advertisement. After the mother-daughter duo left, he took his time to send Xiaoqi to the kindergarten. He called the two elders at home and asked them to come over to pick Xiaoqi up at night.

Ling Sheng had been scheduled to audition rather early in the morning. When she went downstairs after she was done, she happened to see a familiar figure in the lounge of the office building. She chased after him hurriedly. “Second Uncle!”

Yan Yuanfei’s assistant, Jiang Pei, was pushing the wheelchair. Upon seeing that Yan Yuanfei had not heard her, he leaned over and whispered in his ear, “Second Master, it’s Ms. Sheng Sheng.”

Only then did Yan Yuanfei turn his head around. However, he could not see clearly either. He just saw a small figure running toward him excitedly. When she reached him, she even swayed for a bit, having lost her footing. He reached out to support her. “Why are you here?”

“I was wondering why you were here.” Ling Sheng grinned as she took over Jiang Pei’s job and pushed the wheelchair. “I’m here for the audition.”

This is an office building. Did Second Uncle come to discuss some business?

“I’m here to deal with some personal matters,” Yan Yuanfei smiled. “Did your audition go smoothly? Are you auditioning for He Sha’s character?”

Ling Sheng nodded. “Yes, Second Uncle. Do you know Teacher He Sha?”
