When Morris Liu arrived at his home at eight in the evening, an aromatic scent immediately caressed his nostrils— inciting a silent grumbling sound in his stomach as if it was protesting. Furrowing his brows, he wordlessly took off his shoes and changed into house slippers before he headed towards the kitchen.
There, just as he arrived at the usual empty kitchen, Lexi was already preparing some dishes to eat. His eyes studied her small back, her hair was tied up in a high bun, revealing her graceful neck in plain sight. An apron clung onto her neck as she smoothly transferred food from one of the bowls to a frying pan on the stove.
By the looks of it, she hadn't noticed his presence as she was preoccupied with cooking and a contented smile plastered on the corner of her lips. Morris Liu just watched her with an endearing gaze as a thought briefly hovered in his mind that he instantly threw out in that instant as well.
