Chapter 373: Mathematical Genius
In the dining room.
From time to time, the sizzling sounds of stir-frying and deep-frying echoed.
Although the air conditioner was on, Ye Fan's forehead was still covered in sweat. Just as he was preparing to sort the river shrimp, suddenly, his eyes were covered by a pair of small hands.
"Guess who I am?"
"My wife!"
These three words, Ye Fan said them without a moment's hesitation.
The smile on Ning Xi's pretty face froze, she slapped Ye Fan's back indignantly and shyly, "What nonsense are you talking? I'm not your wife!"
While complaining, she very guiltily glanced towards the dining room entrance.
Ye Fan put down the river shrimp he had just picked up, turned around. When he saw the girl behind him clearly, his whole person froze on the spot.
Clean!
At this moment, only these two words were in Ye Fan's mind.
The girl before him was even purer, more flawless than crystal. Paired with that soft temperament, beautiful face, and pretty figure; put together, for any boy, the power was simply comparable to a nuclear weapon.
No boy could refuse such a Ning Xi, no boy would dislike such a Ning Xi, no boy could resist such a Ning Xi…
Feeling Ye Fan's dazed gaze, Ning Xi reproached: "Why are you looking at me like that? I just… put on some light makeup."
"So beautiful!"
Ye Fan praised very directly.
Ning Xi pouted her lips, but the smile at the corners of her lips couldn't be hidden, "See you every day, no matter how good-looking, one will get used to it."
"Xiao Xi, don't you know there's a type of girl called the grows on you?"
"Then what you mean is, I don't look good at first glance?"
"…"
The corner of Ye Fan's mouth twitched. But fortunately, his thoughts turned far faster than ordinary people. He quickly tried to salvage it: "Who said that? At first glance, you belong to that campus goddess type. To put it plainly, it is precisely the first love type in all boys' minds, making people instinctively want to protect you."
"After getting along, only then can one appreciate the gentleness exclusive to you."
"Stop!"
Ning Xi felt a bit embarrassed by Ye Fan's words, rolled her eyes at him, "Smooth talker!"
The girl clearly didn't want to talk too much on this issue. Spotting the river shrimp in Ye Fan's hand, she immediately rolled up her sleeves, revealing slender, fair jade-like arms , volunteered enthusiastically: "Gege, let me help you."
"N-no need!"
Upon hearing this, the string in Ye Fan's heart instantly tightened. He hurriedly shook his head, "Sit obediently. Today you are the protagonist, can't do any work, understand?"
Let Ning Xi cook?
Stop kidding!
He himself was fine, level five physique could withstand the devastation. But he had to consider Ning Xiangtian and Lan Xi, couldn't murder them!
Seeing Ye Fan's firm attitude, Ning Xi's fragrant shoulders shrugged slightly, nodded helplessly: "Alright then."
With that said, her attention shifted to the prepared dishes on the dining table. Smelling the fragrance rushing towards her, she secretly glanced at Ye Fan who was peeling shrimp, carefully picked up her chopsticks and started to sneak some food.
Who knew, once she started eating, she couldn't stop.
Ye Fan, after finishing peeling the shrimp, turned his head and glanced, shook his head and chuckled. Came to Ning Xi's side, pinched her exquisite little face, "Just eat a couple of bites. Dinner hasn't started yet. What if you get full later?"
Ning Xi put down her chopsticks, still chewing in her mouth, said indistinctly: "Gege, I didn't sneak food, just tasting."
Ye Fan tapped Ning Xi's jade-like nose, couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Just your cat-like appetite, taste a bit more, and you won't be able to eat anything later."
Ning Xi's delicate head nodded lightly. Looking at Ye Fan's busy back, the corners of her eyes completed a crescent moon shape.
As the last dish, stir-fried river shrimp, was served on the dining table, Ye Fan's chef journey ended here.
When Lan Xi and Ning Xiangtian came to the dining room, their reactions were almost identical.
"So many dishes?"
Hearing this, Ning Xi smiled lightly and asked: "How is it, Gege is amazing, right?"
Anyway, Dad said yesterday to let her call him however she wanted, so might as well not hide it anymore.
Apart from the father and daughter, the remaining Ye Fan and Lan Xi, upon hearing these words, both froze.
Ye Fan's eyes narrowed, feeling amused in his heart, but more than that, it was pleasant surprise.
Ning Xi actually called him Gege in front of Ning Xiangtian?
Although just a form of address, for the extremely shy Ning Xi, it required great courage!
Compared to Ye Fan's pleasant surprise, Lan Xi had a look of astonishment. Walked to her daughter's side, asked in a low voice: "Xiao Xi, your dad is still here, aren't you afraid…"
"Not afraid."
Ning Xi smiled sweetly, raised her fair hand and pointed at her father, "Dad agreed for me to call him that."
Ning Xiangtian's face darkened.
Mouth… really cheap !
Why did he say that yesterday? Now it's great, this little girl is desperately trying to exploit this loophole, yet he precisely can't say anything.
Frustrating!!!
This time, Lan Xi was even more surprised, looked at her husband in amazement, tentatively inquired: "Hubby, are you not feeling well somewhere? Or is there something wrong with you mentally?"
"If there's a problem, you must go see a doctor in time, absolutely can't delay!"
Ning Xiangtian: "…"
Ye Fan saw his future father-in-law's embarrassment, spoke up to rescue him: "Sister Lan, quickly sit down and eat. If we wait any longer, the food will get cold."
"Eat, eat."
Lan Xi nodded, amusement appearing deep in her eyes.
Those words just now were naturally to tease her husband.
Who let him always cause trouble? This was just a small punishment.
The first moment Lan Xi put the food into her mouth, her face was full of surprise, "Xiao Fan, your cooking skills are really good!"
"Thank you, Sister Lan."
Ye Fan smiled politely.
Ning Xi giggled, winked and said: "Mom, today you benefited from my light, still not thanking daughter?"
"Thank you?"
Lan Xi rolled her eyes at her daughter exasperatedly, said: "Mom has fed you and clothed you since you were little, how come I don't see you thank me?"
Ning Xi's small hand supported her chin, thought seriously: "Mom, do you think our family's future assets will be mine?"
Hearing this question, the three of them froze.
Lan Xi nodded, not understanding why, said: "Does this even need to be said? Your dad and I only have you, one daughter. If the assets aren't given to you, who else?"
Ning Xi immediately clapped her hands, revealing a mischievous smile, said carefully: "Since it's like this, then are you and Dad now considered to be eating mine, wearing mine, spending mine, living in mine?"
Lan Xi: "…"
Ning Xiangtian: "…"
These words truly made the two speechless.
Thinking carefully, it actually made sense…
Arithmetic genius!
Ye Fan forcefully suppressed the laughter in his heart, struggled to swallow the rice in his mouth, held Ning Xi's left hand under the table, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Xiao Xi, I think you better not talk anymore."
Lan Xi's face stiffened, glared at her daughter extremely speechlessly, pointed at the dining room entrance, "Either eat, or I'll kick you out, choose which one?"
"Cough——"
Ning Xi's eyes blinked rapidly, obediently picked up her chopsticks, "Eating, eating."
