Back at the Ji family, Ji En wasn't back yet, and Ji Aier let out a sigh of relief.
"You're back!" After seven years of returning to the Ji family, the butler was obviously much more polite to Ji Aier. He was a very loyal and principled person, and thus deeply trusted by the Ji family. But in the eyes of the servants, he was too strict.
"Yes!" Ji Aier hurriedly bowed and replied. "I'm going to prepare dinner!" Ji Aier pointed to the kitchen and said. Although the butler was polite to her, due to the influence she received since childhood, she still felt scared whenever she saw the butler.
"Chef, can I help you with anything?" Ji Aier asked the French chef.
He turned around and looked at her puzzledly, not understanding what she meant because he didn't understand Chinese. He only spoke French.
Ji Aier pointed at herself, then at him, and then at the kitchen utensils. It meant was there anything she could do to help him?
The chef smiled and shook his head, saying a sentence in Chinese: Thank you! He only knew two sentences in Chinese, the other one being "I'm sorry".
He understood Ji Aier's meaning. He found this girl who appeared beside Ji En very interesting.
"Oh!" Ji Aier walked out of the kitchen disappointedly, feeling a bit bored.
Ji Aier sat on the rattan chair. At this time, her phone was vibrating, and there was a new message. She picked it up to check. It was from her precious daughter who borrowed a classmate's phone and sent her a multimedia message with a missing picture. Ji Aier understood her daughter's meaning. She said she missed her mother and wanted to go home.
Ji Aier sent a message back to Qianhe: Qianhe and Minze, Mommy will wait for you right at the school gate after school tomorrow afternoon! Be obedient to the teachers at school! Mommy loves you the most!
When Ji Aier heard the sound of a car outside, she hurriedly put away her phone because Ji En was back.
"You're back!" Ji Aier looked at Ji En who walked in and didn't know what to say. Finally, she squeezed out such a sentence that sounded like a virtuous wife waiting for her husband to return. Ji Aier felt a bit depressed.
Ji En nodded and went upstairs.
"Run the bath water for me!" Ji En turned around and said.
"OK!" Ji Aier replied. Originally, she wasn't planning to follow him upstairs, but now she had to.
Ji Aier cleaned the bathtub, turned on the faucet, and adjusted the water temperature to be a little higher so that Ji En wouldn't feel too cold when he took a bath later.
The water was almost enough. Ji Aier turned off the faucet and dropped a few drops of essential oil that could relax the body and mind into the bathtub.
"It's ready for a bath." Ji Aier walked out of the bathroom and said to Ji En who was watching TV. He was no longer watching cartoons.
"You have to scrub my back!" Ji En finished and stood up, walking into the bathroom.
"What!" Ji Aier thought she had misheard. Did he really treat her as his real servant girl?
"Still standing there like a statue!" Ji En's roar came from the bathroom.
To Ji Aier, it sounded like an angry lion, and she, this antelope who couldn't fight back, was going to have bad luck again.
She walked into the bathroom and started looking for a towel.
"Come here!" Ji En said.
Ji Aier was very annoyed every time he used single words, so she raised her head and glared at Ji En. Looking at him sitting in the bathtub, his whole body was covered in foam, and there was no embarrassing scene.
Ji Aier walked over and started scrubbing his back. She thought of the scene of bathing her son. In fact, she could completely treat Ji En as a big child, and then there would be nothing. Ji Aier thought and felt much more relaxed.
Ji En was much darker than before, and his skin was no longer fair but a very healthy wheat color. It seemed that the sun in the northern hemisphere was stronger. Ji Aier thought.
"Do you want to peel my skin off?"
"No!" Ji Aier regained her senses and said, and the strength became much softer.
"What's wrong?" Ji Aier asked when she saw Ji En suddenly grabbing her hand.
"If you don't want me to devour you here, don't be absent-minded!" Ji En's voice sounded a little strange.
"I'm not!" Ji Aier argued. She really didn't hope that Ji En would really take action here. She thought of the scene she saw at noon today and suddenly felt sick. Ji En didn't know how many women he had had.
