Chapter 170 Calling for Mom
Li Yan didn't know why, but ever since she came to Gu Tingyu's house and failed to make any new healthy dishes, she often had trouble cooking.
After being scolded by Gu Tingyu, she looked at him helplessly, holding the spatula.
The pot was still sizzling.
Gu Tingyu's heart tightened, and he rushed forward to turn off the gas, his expression serious and tense.
There was even a hint of resentment, like, "Thank goodness I woke up, otherwise you would have blown up the kitchen again."
Li Yan touched her nose, slightly embarrassed, and explained, "Xiao Yu, don't be nervous, I just turned the fire up a little too high."
Immediately forgetting her embarrassment, she confidently assured him, "You have to believe me too, I'll definitely do better next time!"
Gu Tingyu glanced at Li Yan and said irritably, "If you can't cook, then don't go into the kitchen!"
“I’m not bad at cooking…” Li Yan frowned in dissatisfaction and retorted in a low voice.
As a result, Gu Tingyu interrupted her directly, not wanting to hear any explanation: "This is what I see every time. Don't try it again, or I'm afraid you'll blow up my kitchen."
With that, he left the kitchen without looking back, took out his phone and called his aunt: "Auntie, could you please come and cook some food quickly?"
Li Yan looked helplessly at Gu Tingyu's retreating figure.
She's been here for so long, and every time she tries to cook a meal for Customer Yu, something goes wrong, either here or there.
Unfortunately, Gu Tingyu caught her red-handed, and her inability to cook inexplicably stuck in his mind.
No matter how Li Yan tried to explain, Gu Tingyu no longer believed her.
Since Gu Tingyu had forced her to stop cooking, Li Yan sighed, picked up her phone, walked to the sofa, and started scrolling through her phone to pass the time while waiting for the housekeeper to come and cook.
Li Yan just happened to come across an item in an auction.
Her eyes lit up when she noticed a delicate, sparkling necklace.
The star-shaped pendant has a very distinctive design, much like the necklace that Gu Yujing gave to Li Yan back then.
She was so excited that she saved the picture and ran to find the customer, Yu, wanting him to take her to the auction house to buy it.
They opened Gu Tingyu's room, only to find that he was still asleep.
Li Yan wanted to wait until he woke up before talking to him. She closed the door and prepared to leave, but then she heard Gu Tingyu's hoarse and helpless voice.
"Mom, don't go..."
Li Yan was stunned. After realizing what was happening, she quickly went to the bedside.
Gu Tingyu frowned, sweat poured down his face, and he kept repeating the same sentence he had just said.
Li Yan sat on his bed, covering his hand with one hand and wiping the sweat from his face with a tissue in the other.
She thought Gu Tingyu was having a nightmare, and instinctively spoke up as his mother to comfort him, who felt insecure.
"Xiaoyu, don't be afraid, Mommy hasn't left, I'm here with you."
Gu Tingyu sensed Li Yan's response and held her hand tightly in his sleep, murmuring pitifully.
"Mom, I will be good, and you must stay with me forever."
Li Yan lowered her eyes, wiping the sweat from Gu Tingyu's face, her heart aching with distress, and comforted him again and again.
"Okay, okay, Mom won't leave. I'll stay here with you."
"Xiaoyu, go to sleep. Mommy will always be here for you."
"..."
finally.
Exhausted, Li Yan collapsed onto Gu Tingyu's bed and fell asleep.
The aunt who had prepared the meal was about to call Gu Tingyu to eat.
But then I heard him calling out "Li Yan's mother" repeatedly, which almost made my legs go weak.
