Late at night, Jinhai woke up to drink water. The jar was empty so he went into the kitchen.
While he was at it, he found the ramen he bought still half left in a bowl.
He furrowed his brows. What? Dad didn't finish the whole ramen? He was whining like a child to get it for him and he didn't even eat the whole thing. He likes Nana's food so much, so how can he leave some ramen aside?
He drank water and was about to go but stopped. He stared at the ramen for God knows how long. Like he was trying to make a very important decision. It felt like his stares could bore holes in the ramen.
Finally coming to a decision, he got the chopsticks and took one bite. He slowly nodded. As expected, it's really good.
In a matter of seconds, he finished the bowl. Jinhai stood rooted. He was supposed to only taste it. Then he shrugged. I will just cook up a story if Dad asked, he thought.
He left but didn't notice Father Liu standing in a corner smiling mischievously at him.
