After a while, not too long actually.
That day was my birthday.
Zhou Jinshen sent a car to pick me up and take me to the mall to get the bag he bought for me.
But my heart was full of the desire to go back and cut the cake with Zhou Jinshen, with no desire to shop at all.
So I went back home early and saw his skilled figure in the kitchen.
There was a blue ribbon tied behind him, and at a glance, I recognized it as the Doraemon apron I picked on Pinduoduo.
Aunt Chen and Aunt Li followed, patting my back with a smile, saying, "Mr. Zhou knows how to pamper someone, knowing that Miss Jiaojiao likes to eat sweet and sour spare ribs."
Some things are clear in one's mind, but it feels most comfortable when they are spoken by others.
A blush crept up my face, and I pushed the door open with joy in my heart and said, "Mr. Zhou, it's not really a special day, you don't have to..."
Zhou Jinshen turned around in confusion, "Why did you come back?"
"I..."
He didn't actually care why I came back.
He just waved his hand, interrupted me, and continued to turn around and stir-fry the side dishes, saying, "You go out, I have something to do tonight, so I won't be home to have dinner with you."
Later, I found out.
That day, Zhou Jinshen's cousin Ye Qi fell ill and was hospitalized, asking for the sweet and sour spare ribs made by Zhou Jinshen.
Ye Qi was the adopted daughter of Zhou Jinshen's uncle.
During the internal conflicts in the Zhou family those years, it happened when Zhou Jinshen was young.
Zhou Jinshen's mother, in order to ensure her safety, secretly sent Zhou Jinshen to his younger brother's house to be raised for a few years.
There have always been rumors outside, saying that Zhou Jinshen and this cousin who is not related by blood have an unusual relationship.
I never believed it.
But that day, when I blew out the birthday candles alone and shed tears, I suddenly felt that I was very foolish.
It was at this moment that the system appeared again:
【Hello, do you remember me? I'm the Canary System that you recently started using. Do you want to learn more about it?】
【The first host has special benefits~】
