Host! I told you to do a task! I didn't tell you to bbb.

The next morning, Liu Yunshu was awakened by the sunlight. She groggily opened her eyes and saw a magnified handsome face right in front of her.

She stroked his cheek with her fingers; they were indeed twins, looking exactly alike.

A hint of interest flashed in her eyes; even... they were almost the same.

If we were together... Liu Yunshu felt excited at the thought.

At this moment, Mo Chengyan's eyelashes trembled, and when he opened his eyes, there was a magnified smiling face.

Good morning, A-Yuan!

Mo Chengyan jolted awake as memories of last night flooded back into his mind.

His expression stiffened for a moment, and he subconsciously replied, "Good morning, Yunshu."

A mischievous glint flashed in Liu Yunshu's eyes. She pouted and said coquettishly, "A-Yuan~ Don't you always call me Yunshu baby? Why are you like this today..."

[Holy crap?! That giant ice block can actually shout like that?!]

Mo Chengyan was so shocked he almost jumped up, but he forced himself to remain calm. He cleared his throat and reached out to pinch her cheek.

"She just woke up, her mind hasn't quite registered yet, baby Yunshu~"

As soon as he said those words, Mo Chengyan got goosebumps.

He had never said anything so cheesy in his life, but seeing Liu Yunshu's eyes light up instantly, he felt that this awkwardness was worth it.

Liu Yunshu smiled and snuggled closer to him, gently poking his chest with her finger.

"So what happened to you yesterday? Your kissing skills suddenly became awkward, and you kept getting distracted. Did the company distract you?"

Liu Yunshu's fingertips were still gently circling his chest.

"By the way, didn't you just video chat with me yesterday, saying the project in France was progressing well? How come you're back so late?"

Mo Chengyan stiffened at the question, his fingers instinctively clenching the bed sheet beneath him.

Both questions hit his weak spots: one was his kissing skills that gave him away, and the other was his inexplicable "sudden return to China."

He had no choice but to lie, his fingertips casually scratching her chin. "I wanted to give you a surprise. Just have my assistant keep an eye on the project."

As for his kissing skills, he vaguely changed the subject: "Last night... I missed you so much that I couldn't control myself."

Liu Yunshu squinted as she was tickled. "A-Yuan, tickle me again, it feels so good~"

Mo Chengyan's heart softened instantly when he saw her squinting and acting coquettishly like a kitten.

He gently slid his fingers down her chin and then lightly scratched her neck.

Liu Yunshu chuckled softly, tickled, and snuggled even tighter into his arms, her warm breath brushing against his chest, carrying the sweet softness of someone just awakened.

"Ah Yuan~ I'm hungry~"

Mo Chengyan's heart fluttered at her soft "I'm hungry," and he lowered his head to rub against the top of her head.

"Wait here, I'll go get you something to eat."

He threw off the covers and got out of bed, but as soon as he reached the bedroom door, he remembered that he had no idea how to cook.

He paused, then turned back and smiled at Liu Yunshu: "Lie down a little longer, I'll order takeout."

Liu Yunshu, clutching her blanket, looked at him with a puzzled expression. "A-Yuan~ You never let me order takeout, so why today…?"

Mo Chengyan stopped abruptly, his mind racing, a thin layer of sweat already seeping from his back.

Xiao Ba looked at the stiff Mo Chengyan, then glanced at Da Da, who had a mischievous look on his face.

He shook his head and sneered. Poor Mo Chengyan!

Mo Chengyan was currently brainstorming: [That damned ice block! What did the takeout do to me?! Why can't I eat it?!]

Liu Yunshu almost burst out laughing when she saw Mo Chengyan standing frozen at the door.

"A-Yuan? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Mo Chengyan suddenly turned around, forcing a smile, and scratched his earlobe with his fingertip: "I just... wanted you to try something new, you get tired of eating home-cooked meals all the time."

In his mind, he was furiously complaining: Why does Mo Chengyuan have so many ridiculous rules!

Liu Yunshu suppressed a laugh and deliberately dragged out her words: "Oh? But you used to say that takeout food is too oily and salty, which is bad for your health, and that Aunt Zhang never brings the same thing twice."

Zhang Ma: Madam! Wait for me to come back~

Aunt Zhang? Aunt Zhang?! Holy crap! How could he forget about Aunt Zhang?!

Oh no! If Aunt Zhang sees this, we'll be completely exposed!

"Oh! Aunt Zhang went back to her hometown for a while. Is A-Yuan worried that I won't have anything to eat?"

Mo Chengyan's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly replied as if grasping at a lifeline.

"Yes! It's because Aunt Zhang isn't here that I was worried you wouldn't be able to find something you like, so I thought of ordering takeout."

I was terrified! Aunt Zhang actually went back to her hometown! My luck is just too good!

Seeing his relieved expression, Liu Yunshu couldn't hide the smile in her eyes, but deliberately put on a stern face.

"Okay then, I want the steamed egg with shrimp from that place in the south of the city, and the strawberry glutinous rice balls you mentioned last time. Remember to tell the owner to add extra sugar."

"No problem!" Mo Chengyan agreed immediately, turned around and walked towards the living room, his steps becoming lighter.

Luckily, I managed to get away with it.

Xiao Ba says it's laughing so hard it's going crazy!

He took out his phone to search for takeout, but his fingers paused for a moment.

Steamed shrimp and egg in the south of the city? Which one? How would he know which restaurant Mo Chengyuan usually ordered for Liu Yunshu?

Just as I was staring at my phone screen, Liu Yunshu's voice suddenly came from behind me: "A Yuan, the address is 'Fresh Food Restaurant' at No. 12 Minghu Road. Please note that you want the steamed egg to be soft and the glutinous rice ball with extra coconut flakes."

Mo Chengyan felt relieved and quickly nodded, "Understood!"

My fingers flew across the address to place the order, and my heart finally felt a little relieved.

But as soon as he put down his phone, he saw Liu Yunshu standing at the bedroom door, wearing slippers and hugging a pillow, staring at him with bright eyes.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Mo Chengyan asked.

"I've been waiting for you," Liu Yunshu said, walking up to him and looking up at him. "Would you sit with me for a while?"

She pulled Mo Chengyan's hand and walked towards the sofa, her fingertips inadvertently brushing against his palm, which was slightly cool.

Mo Chengyan was pulled down to sit by her, and his heart began to race uncontrollably again.

Liu Yunshu leaned on his shoulder, her fingers playing with his fingertips.

"Ah Yuan, didn't you say you were going to bring me a surprise this time? Where's the surprise?"

"Surprise..." Mo Chengyan's heart tightened at the question, and his fingertips instinctively gripped her hand.

Little did he know what surprise Mo Chengyuan had prepared; when did this big block of ice become so romantic?

He looked down into her eyes, which were looking up at him, like stars filled with shattered light.

However, if he had met Yun Shu first, it would have been the same.

A thought suddenly struck him, and he looked at her affectionately, "Yun Shu, wasn't my return a pleasant surprise?"

"Of course." Liu Yunshu sighed inwardly, this kid reacted pretty quickly.

"I thought it was flowers or a gift or something."

Looking at Liu Yunshu's dejected expression, Mo Chengyan felt a pang of guilt.

He had lied to her, and the guilt he felt was like a pebble thrown into a lake, creating ripples all around.

Mo Chengyan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he gripped her hand tightly, his gaze falling on her slightly lowered eyelashes.

"I didn't bring a gift, but I can go buy one now. What do you want? Jewelry? A bag?"

He was eager to make amends, and his tone was somewhat urgent.

Liu Yunshu shook her head and gently hooked her fingertips around his palm: "I don't want those things, I was just saying it casually."

She looked up at him, a smile hidden in her eyes, "As long as you're with me, I'm happy."

These words were like a feather gently tickling Mo Chengyan's heart, making him instantly forget the embarrassment of lying, and he only felt that the warmth in his arms was sweeter.

He reached out and ruffled her hair, just about to say something, when his phone suddenly rang—the food delivery had arrived.

"I'll go get it!" He said, as if he had found a way out, and quickly walked to the door.

"Oh my god! This is hilarious!" Little Eight lay on the dining table, rolling around incessantly.

"Dad! Look how nervous he is!"

Liu Yunshu suppressed a laugh, her fingertips gently tracing the name ring on the cushion.

Watching Mo Chengyan almost run to open the door, even his back view revealed a panicked feeling of "being afraid of being exposed".

Mo Chengyan returned from outside carrying takeout, looking at Liu Yunshu with a gentle expression, "Yunshu, come and eat!"

Liu Yunshu immediately got up from the sofa and ran to the dining table to sit down.

Her eyes sparkled as she stared at the lunchbox in Mo Chengyan's hand, like a kitten waiting to be fed.

Mo Chengyan was amused by her appearance and quickly opened the package.

The steamed egg with shrimp is so tender it practically oozes juice, and the strawberry glutinous rice balls are coated in a thick layer of coconut flakes, filling the air with a sweet aroma.

"Try it quickly and see if it suits your taste." He handed over a spoon, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Liu Yunshu scooped a spoonful of steamed egg and put it in her mouth, enjoying the soft and tender texture coated with the delicious broth.

Her eyes instantly curved into crescent moons: "Delicious! Just as delicious as Aunt Zhang's!"

Zhang Ma: QAQ

Mo Chengyan breathed a sigh of relief, picked up a glutinous rice ball and took a bite. The sweet strawberry filling melted in his mouth, warming his heart.

The two ate breakfast head to head, the sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, warm and cozy, creating an indescribable sense of warmth.

But this warmth didn't last long, as the sound of a key turning suddenly came from the doorway.

Mo Chengyan abruptly stopped biting into the glutinous rice ball, his heart skipping a beat.

Who will come? Didn't Zhang Ma go back to her hometown?

Liu Yunshu also put down her chopsticks, a sly smile flashing in her eyes, but she deliberately feigned confusion: "Who is it? Who would come at this hour?"

Mo Chengyan put down his cutlery and was about to get up to open the door when it was already pushed open.
