Chapter 97 What's Yours Is Mine

After a noisy meal, Lin Cheng returned to his room and just changed his clothes that Xiao Tong had rubbed with ketchup when he heard the doorbell ring.

He opened the door and saw Enxi, a little girl wearing a pink cotton coat, looking up at him blankly.

"It's Enxi, long time no see." Lin Cheng greeted with a smile.

The little girl clasped her hands on her belly and called out softly: "Uncle~~~~"

Lin Cheng squatted down and was about to speak when he saw the little girl turn around and run towards the open door opposite.

"???"

Lin Cheng was confused and didn't know what the little girl meant by saying hello and running away.

Enxi ran into her room without closing the door, poking her little head out to look at Lin Cheng secretly, looking like a timid rabbit.

Lin Cheng hesitated, "Enxi, do you have anything to say to uncle?"

The little girl looked at Lin Cheng again and again with her big watery eyes, and then stammered, "No, Enxi has nothing to say."

Lin Cheng laughed, "Enxi hasn't been out recently, right? Isn't it boring? Do you want to go to the two big sisters' place with uncle to play for a while?"

The little girl shook her head, "Mom is with Enxi."

"Enxi, have you seen uncle?" Zheng Shiyan's voice came from inside.

Enxi turned her head and whispered, "I saw you."

"Sister Shiyan." Lin Cheng poked his head inside and greeted.

"Lin Cheng."

Zheng Shiyan opened the half-open door, "Enxi has been talking about you for a few days. I heard Shuyan say that you would be back at night, and I ran over to ring the doorbell several times."

The little girl couldn't help but shrink her little body behind her mother, seeming a little embarrassed.

Last Christmas, I don’t know whether it was after Lin Cheng caught Enxi who jumped off the terrace, or after the little girl took the initiative to hold Lin Cheng’s hand, the little girl became obviously close to Lin Cheng.

But this silly little girl didn’t even know how to express closeness. When she came to see Lin Cheng, she really just took a look and ran away.

Lin Cheng smiled, "Uncle will be at home every weekend. If Enxi misses uncle, come and play with uncle."

The little girl hugged her mother's legs, showing a big eye, and hummed softly.

"Sister Shiyan, are you just off work?"

Lin Cheng then noticed that Zheng Shiyan's professional suit had not been changed. The simple white shirt and black skirt suit were capable and elegant.

Zheng Shiyan nodded, "Because of the epidemic, our TV station is even busier. Fortunately, Shuyan and Xiaotong helped to look after Enxi in the past two days."

"Anyway, they are fine. It's actually good to tease Enxi at home every day."

Lin Cheng looked at the little girl, "Enxi, uncle is going in, say goodbye to uncle, okay?"

Enxi tilted her little head, then stretched out her little hand and waved, "Uncle~~~Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

······

The next day, Lin Cheng opened his eyes early, but he couldn't bear to leave the warm quilt. He lingered in the quilt for nearly two hours before getting up.

There was nothing to eat in his refrigerator, so Lin Cheng ran to the next door without hesitation to prepare for food.

Xiao Tong happened to be sitting at the table with a confused look on her face, with a big mousse cake in front of her. She liked this kind of dessert very much.

"Where's Sister Shuyan?"

"Sister Shuyan went to buy vegetables."

Xiao Tong was sleepy and stuffed the cake into her mouth with a spoon, and her mouth was all smudged.

"Didn't I buy vegetables yesterday?"

"How dare you say that? How can Sister Shuyan cook if you only buy vegetables but not ingredients?"

"Oh, that's right."

Lin Cheng suddenly realized and took out a big spoon from the kitchen without any hesitation. He sat next to Xiao Tong and scooped up a big piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xiao Tong was anxious, "What are you doing? This is mine."

Lin Cheng kept mumbling incoherently, "Oh! You are being distant with me, aren't you? What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine. Don't be so distant."

Seeing that Lin Cheng was about to reach out the spoon, Xiao Tong quickly blocked it with his hand, "No, bring the plate over and we'll each have half. If you scoop two more spoons like this, there will be nothing left."

"Okay, okay, you're really stingy. Then Brother Cheng will generously give you half." Lin Cheng shamelessly regarded himself as the owner of the cake.

Xiao Tong gestured again and again, and finally divided the remaining cake into two equal parts, and then warned Lin Cheng: "Hey! This is yours, and the strawberries are just half for each of us, you are not allowed to put the spoon into my plate."

"I know, I know, I am not happy to eat the food on your plate." Lin Cheng waved his hand pretending to be free and easy.

He took another big gulp, and Lin Cheng got up and ran to get water.

He turned around, and the strawberries on his plate were gone.

"Xiao Tong, did you steal my strawberries?"

The strawberries on Xiao Tong's plate were also gone, so Lin Cheng couldn't even grab hers.

"Huh?"

Xiao Tong pretended to be dumb, "Did you forget what you ate? People! My memory is not very good in the morning. I can't even remember what I did just now."

Lin Cheng was distressed: "A guilty conscience is a traditional virtue of our Chinese nation. You actually threw it away. Are you still a son of the Chinese nation?"

"Is a guilty conscience a glorious tradition in your family? It's not in my family anyway."

Xiao Tong was proud. She finally got the upper hand in the confrontation with Lin Cheng.

Looking at Xiao Tong's smug look, Lin Cheng suddenly laughed, "I don't know what you are happy about? You even snatched the cake on my plate from your mouth, why do you still look like you got the upper hand?"

The smile on Xiao Tong's face disappeared all of a sudden, and the cake in his mouth didn't seem to smell so good anymore.

"Woo woo~~~ You are such a nasty guy, if this cake is poisonous..."

Scooping up a spoonful of cake and looking at it again and again, Xiao Tong, who was about to say something harsh, couldn't help but sigh, "Forget it, let's just poison me first."

After saying that, he stuffed the cake into his mouth.

·····

At noon, Lin Cheng finally ate the sweet and sour pork ribs he had been longing for.

The aunt at the base also made sweet and sour pork ribs, but the taste was a little different from the sweet and sour pork ribs that Lin Cheng had eaten since childhood, and it was a little too sweet.

On the contrary, the dish that Han Shuyan learned to make by herself tasted basically the same as what Lin Cheng had eaten at home.

After dinner, Lin Cheng took the initiative to drive Han Shuyan and Xiao Tong away, and buried his head in the kitchen to clean up.

Anyway, he had nothing to do today, and he had been eating and drinking for free for so long, so he finally felt guilty for once.

Xiao Tong retreated to her room to play her bronze relegation match, and Han Shuyan sat on the mat on the balcony to read a book.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Lin Cheng also ran to the balcony to get some sun.

"Ah Cheng, is the lunch dish to your taste?"

Han Shuyan held the book in her hand and turned to look at Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng blurted out: "Sister Shuyan, the dishes you cook are always to my taste, and the sweet and sour pork ribs are really delicious."

"Then I'll cook it for you next time."

Han Shuyan smiled, her crescent-like eyes were gentle and bright.
