Huo Yunshen didn't have to wait too long before Xu Xiyan set a hearty and skillfully prepared breakfast on the table.
There were meat porridges, sandwiches, a platter of fresh vegetables, beautifully shaped poached eggs, and a little plate of pickles.
Xu Xiyan scooped some porridge into a bowl and placed it in front of Huo Yunshen. She also handed him a sandwich.
"What do you think, Mr. Huo? I haven't cooked for a long time," she said modestly. " I'm afraid I'm quite rusty at it."
When Xu Xiyan was abroad, she was so busy that she often had no time to cook and ended up fixing quick and easy meals.
She knew that this was one of the reasons Ying Bao had always wanted to buy a daddy: one who can cook and would never let her go hungry.
Huo Yunshen took a bite of a sandwich and tasted the meat porridge. His eyes went wide in surprise.
"Mmm, not bad! They're very tasty, much better than the ones I make."
