Li Xiaoyun answered truthfully, "I got up at five. But because the ingredients were prepared, I just had to throw them into the pot. The remaining time, I could rest."
Zhao Dingli felt both moved and a bit guilty.
Li Xiaoyun must be trying to thank him, which is why she did this.
If he hadn't mentioned wanting her gratitude, how could she keep remembering this, and seize the chance to express her thanks?
Zhao Dingli didn't mean it that way; he just wanted to use the opportunity to get closer to her.
He didn't mean to tire her out.
She was already very tired normally, with lots of pressure.
Getting up so early in the morning meant she wouldn't be able to rest well.
Zhao Gushen furrowed his brows tightly.
"Earlier, when I said to prepare breakfast, it was just a casual suggestion," Zhao Dingli said. "I thought breakfast is simple; we could just have some bread and milk."
If not for making Li Xiaoyun feel better about it, he would have prepared it himself.
