Huang Ze Jun's Doubts

In the morning, in the kitchen, Tang Zhi Chu was cooking millet congee.

When it seemed ready, he turned off the heat, ladled out a bowl, and only then started frying eggs.

Everyone was getting more familiar, and the kitchen was being used less and less.

Tang Zhi Chu decided to start a fire today.

Yang Jia Xing appeared in the kitchen first. Seeing Tang Zhi Chu, he greeted him. Tang Zhi Chu offered him some congee, but he said no, grabbed a piece of bread, and left.

Chen Si Yang was the second to appear. Seeing Tang Zhi Chu busy in the kitchen, she walked over.

"Wow, there's congee!"

Tang Zhi Chu handed her the bowl he had ladled out earlier. "Drink this, it should be cool by now."

Chen Si Yang nodded, glanced at Tang Zhi Chu, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Chen Si Yang took her bowl of congee to the dining table. Tang Zhi Chu brought her two fried eggs on a plate.

Chen Si Yang looked at him pitifully. "I can't eat that much!"

"If you can't eat it, leave it. I'll eat it later."

"Okay, thanks for your hard work, Old Tang."

"It's no trouble, Little Student Chen."

Only then did Chen Si Yang start eating her congee.

After all the eggs were fried, Tang Zhi Chu also ladled himself a bowl and sat down next to Chen Si Yang.

Chen Si Yang pushed the plate with the remaining fried egg towards him. "This is for you, I really can't eat any more."

"Okay. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Chen Si Yang's eyes lit up. "Can we order food?"

"Of course. I'm a little chef, after all."

"Don't be modest, Master Chef! Can we have rabbit heads? The ones from last time. You can make whatever else you want, just simple things, don't tire yourself out."

"Alright."

Chen Si Yang finished the last sip of her congee and stood up. "Remember, rabbit heads. I have to go, I'm running out of time."

Seeing Chen Si Yang about to take her bowl, Tang Zhi Chu said, "Leave it, I'll wash it for you."

Chen Si Yang thought for a moment and nodded. "Then I'll wash them tonight."

With that, Chen Si Yang ran out, but after a moment, she ran back and slapped something in front of Tang Zhi Chu.

Tang Zhi Chu looked closely and saw it was the QQ candy he had made last time.

"Here, this is for you. I have more, didn't expect that! Okay, I'm leaving!"

Chen Si Yang rushed out again, almost bumping into Huang Ze Jun in the living room.

Tang Zhi Chu also saw Huang Ze Jun and called out, "Brother Jun, come have some congee!"

Huang Ze Jun glanced at Tang Zhi Chu and, seeing his apparent enthusiasm, entered the kitchen.

"Millet congee, coarse grains, quite healthy." Tang Zhi Chu added as Huang Ze Jun approached.

Huang Ze Jun nodded and went to get some congee.

"There are fried eggs on the side too."

"Thanks."

Sitting opposite Tang Zhi Chu, Huang Ze Jun felt a bit strange. The other person seemed to be sincerely inviting him for congee. Was he that oblivious?

In any case, Huang Ze Jun felt that the atmosphere in the villa was quite peculiar.

"Brother Jun."

Huang Ze Jun looked up. "Yeah?"

"Can you teach me how to take photos sometime?"

Huang Ze Jun frowned. What did he mean?

He had already won, so there was no need to taunt him, right?

"I ordered a portable photo printing device last night. It's very light, and we can take it out to take pictures and print them immediately. I think it's cool, but it seems a bit complicated."

Perhaps it was because Tang Zhi Chu sounded sincere, or perhaps it was the congee and fried eggs in front of him.

Huang Ze Jun said, "I have that machine, and it's not that complicated. I can teach you if you want to play with it."

Tang Zhi Chu looked up and smiled. "That would be great. Tomorrow? Do you have time?"

Huang Ze Jun thought for a moment and nodded. "Sure, tomorrow."

Zhou Yun suddenly entered. Seeing Tang Zhi Chu chatting with Huang Ze Jun, she was a little curious. "What are you two talking about?"

Tang Zhi Chu didn't answer directly. He pointed towards the kitchen. "There's congee and fried eggs, do you want some?"

Zhou Yun smiled. "What do you think? If there's free food, why wouldn't I eat it? Am I stupid? Right, Brother Jun!"

Huang Ze Jun: "Ah? Yes!"

"Brother Jun, there are so many fried eggs, do you want more?"

Huang Ze Jun looked up again: "Ah? Oh, I don't want any."

Tang Zhi Chu glared: "I made them, aren't you going to ask me?"

Zhou Yun directly picked up the entire plate of fried eggs: "Here, here, all for you."

She took a sip of the porridge and nodded: "It's okay, the thickness is just right, your cooking is still pretty good."

"I thank you."

Zhou Yun glanced at Tang Zhi Chu and asked: "Did you go for a morning run?"

"I'll run at night."

Zhou Yun rolled her eyes: "When you're sick, can you ask it to get sick at night too? When you have a sudden death, can you pick a date?"

Tang Zhi Chu: "."

Zhou Yun looked at Huang Ze Jun again: "Brother Jun, you need to exercise too. Look at your belly."

Huang Ze Jun touched his stomach and then silently put down his chopsticks.

Huang Ze Jun felt a little strange. Usually, no one seemed to pay attention to him. Today, Tang Zhi Chu first came to him to learn photography, and now Zhou Yun was dragging him into it.

Something felt off, but this feeling wasn't bad!

"You two, one is too thin and needs to build muscle and gain weight, the other is slightly overweight and needs to lose weight. Either way, you both need to train. Let's get the morning and night runs going."

Tang Zhi Chu stood up: "Brother Jun, don't listen to him, you're not fat."

Huang Ze Jun looked at Tang Zhi Chu: "I feel like I might actually be a little fat."

"Then you're done for. Come run with me tonight."

Huang Ze Jun actually nodded, thinking to himself, Am I really fat? Is that why Jiang Lan doesn't like my type? Maybe I should lose some weight?

Huang Ze Jun also got up, with half of the porridge left in his bowl: "I'm full."

"Leave it there. You guys go out first if you're busy, I'll clean up." Tang Zhi Chu said as he saw Huang Ze Jun putting away his bowl.

Huang Ze Jun thought about it and didn't stand on ceremony, since he was still teaching him photography tomorrow anyway.

The sudden feeling of being needed made Huang Ze Jun feel much better.

"Then I'm leaving, see you tonight."

"See you tonight."

After Huang Ze Jun left, Zhou Yun looked at Tang Zhi Chu with suspicion.

Tang Zhi Chu felt a little uncomfortable under Zhou Yun's gaze: "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Zhou Yun let out a soft hmph, wondering if this guy was secretly playing tricks, trying to stop her from targeting Brother Jun's company.

Tang Zhi Chu stopped looking at Zhou Yun, Hmphing for no reason.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Tang Zhi Chu also left.

He had an appointment with Jiang Lan in the afternoon; she was a workaholic and had to go to the company in the morning.

At his doorstep, Tang Zhi Chu took out his key. As soon as he opened the door, he froze.

A whole group of people were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Tang Zhi Chu felt like his CPU was about to fry before he could match these people to the faces in his memory.

"Wow, Uncle is here, and Aunt, hey, Aunt Xiaogu is here too. Aunt Daggu, why didn't you call me?" Tang Zhi Chu's face immediately broke into a smile.

Tang Xiuju stood up first and said: "We're all family. Your dad just got discharged from the hospital these past two days, and your Uncle and Aunt Xiaogu were also planning to visit, so we arranged it for today."

The middle-aged man sitting in the living room also stood up. He walked forward a few steps, then patted Tang Zhi Chu's shoulder with a heavy expression and said in a low voice: "As expected of a man from our Old Tang family, you've worked hard."

Tang Zhi Chu was full of questions but still pretended to sigh with a hint of sadness: "It's nothing, Uncle, please sit down."
