Feeling uneasy under his scrutinizing gaze, Ye Zi cautiously called to her boss, who was deep in thought. Good heavens, what was he angry about? Could it be… his earlier outburst while she was sleeping in his arms? He wouldn't fire her, would he?
Although Lucky's exceptional intelligence alone was enough to support the three of them, she really loved this job. Not only was the salary high and the benefits great, but she could also... Seeing the face in front of her that resembled the person in her dreams, she really didn't want to leave.
Seeing through the little woman's mindset at a glance, Pei Zaiyu couldn't help but chuckle. Good heavens, he was pondering how to make her fall in love with him, while she was filled with anxiety about losing her job.
"Are you hungry? Let's go eat together." He said as he walked around the desk, forcefully and domineeringly putting his arm around her waist and leading her out.
"But...but...I brought a lunchbox."
Recovering from her shock, Ye Zi hurriedly declared, and after he raised an eyebrow in doubt, she pulled his large hand and walked towards the tea room.
“Really, look,” she said, taking out two bento boxes and opening them to show him, almost eagerly assuring him, “they’re really delicious.”
"Yeah?"
Without making a sound, Pei Zaiyu glanced at her still-holding hand, and a deep warmth unconsciously surfaced in his usually stern eyes. He sat down first, and then his gaze swept over the dishes in the lunchbox.
"Fish-flavored shredded pork, tomato beef, Kung Pao chicken..." he murmured, carefully gathering his knowledge of Chinese cuisine, but was stumped by something round.
"Oh, that's sweet and sour pork." Strangely, upon closer listening, his voice had a slightly foreign accent.
"Um."
Without asking any further questions, Pei Zaiyu picked up a spoon, scooped up a round meatball, and put it in his mouth. Immediately, a sweet and slightly sour taste spread in his mouth.
"Uh..." He... how could he take someone else's spoon and eat from it? Ye Zi stared at him in disbelief.
He really knows how to choose. The bento boxes all looked pretty much the same, but he picked hers right away. Besides, who invited him? Ignoring her glare, he scooped up another one and put it in his mouth, praising it with satisfaction: "Delicious, but a little sour."
"Of course it's sour, that's sweet and sour pork with pineapple." Watching him devour the special treat Lucky had given her, she felt annoyed. Grabbing another bento box, she angrily scooped up a large spoonful of rice and chewed it fiercely.
"Want some?"
Suddenly, a piece of sweet and sour pork appeared in front of her, its fragrant aroma tempting her. A small slice of pineapple was also placed beside it. Without hesitation, she opened her mouth wide and swallowed it. Mmm, so blissful…
"Is there anything different?" The spoon pointed to the sweet and sour pork in her box, and she took advantage of the situation to snatch one.
“This is Azi’s; she doesn’t eat pineapple.” She stared intently at the moving spoon until it rose to the side of a sexy, alluring thin mouth.
"Oh, I understand."
After speaking, he swallowed his spoils whole and deliberately licked the spoon, looking as if he wanted more.
Boom! Ye Zi blushed, her snow-white cheeks as red as the sunset clouds, her beauty almost burning.
This...this...it feels too intimate, doesn't it? How could he lick her spoon with his tongue? It felt like being kissed, it made me have all sorts of fantasies.
"You...you..." She pointed her slender finger at the wicked man, but her gaze was involuntarily fixed on his two alluring thin lips. She couldn't help but stick out her pink tongue and lick her dry lips.
Oh no! I originally intended to seduce her, but in the end, I was the one who was seduced.
Pei Zaiyu suppressed the rising heat within him caused by her gaze, and coughed twice, trying to dispel his enchanting and beautiful thoughts.
“You’re a great cook,” he said.
"Uh..." Startled awake, she blushed even more and hurriedly asked, "What?"
“I said the bento box was delicious,” he chuckled.
"Oh, Lucky cooked it. He's a genius."
Mentioning her beloved son, Ye Zi immediately beamed with a sweet smile, proudly showing him off.
That pathetic, narrow-minded man she used to bully terribly. Oh God, I should just drop a meteorite on her and kill her!

Chapter Three: "A Night of Deep Affection" by Mo Xian
"Ye Zi, say something!" Why is Ye Zi's face as red as a ripe shrimp, and why does she look so strange?
"Hmm..." Suddenly snapping back to reality, Ye Zi chuckled for a moment, then noticed that Feng Zi's face showed even more hesitation. She had no choice but to be honest and ask, "Did I ever say that Lucky looks just like his dad?"
"This is going to be interesting!" Feng Zi nodded vigorously.
"And our general manager is also similar to that man."
Lucky looks like his father, and the general manager also looks like his father, so doesn't that mean...?
"Lucky looks like the general manager!" Feng Zi exclaimed, both frightened and excited. "Could it be that he was the general manager back then... um..."
"Keep your voice down, or you're dead if Lucky hears you!"
With one hand tightly covering her teasing little mouth, and the other hand barely serving as a canopy in front of her head as she peered towards the kitchen, she let out a long sigh, glared at her friend who was making mumbling noises, and then reluctantly let go.
"Really?" Feng Zi excitedly leaned close to her head, gesturing wildly. "Pei Zaiyu is really Lucky's biological father?"
Biological father? Does Lucky have other fathers?
Ye Zi glared at her resentfully.
"Alas, thankfully little Lucky was born with blue eyes, otherwise..." Fengzi murmured with a mix of resentment and sigh.
