Chapter 40 Sweet Breakfast
They went crazy and indulged themselves all night.
The second day, when Sherri Leng woke up, the first person she saw was Elliot Mo beside her.
Thinking of her crazy behavior last night, Sherri felt a little embarrassed and covered herself with the quilt.
Seeing the cute look on Sherri's face, Elliot couldn't help but started biting her ear. "Get up. Let's have breakfast."
This time, it was Elliot who cooked himself. With a fried pot in his left hand, he wore an apron, looking full of fireworks. It was not in line with the usual cold image of the CEO, but he was also handsome and charming.
After washing her face and brushing her teeth in a hurry, Sherri sat at the table. Elliot had already prepared a rich breakfast.
A bowl of minced pork congee with preserved egg, a few omelets with Scallion flavor, a fried bun and a cup of freshly squeezed hot soybean milk. The simple and classical Chinese breakfast was very suitable for the taste of Sherri.
"How do you know I like Chinese breakfast?" Sherri was a little surprised. She thought that a domineering CEO like Elliot would prefer European style.
Elliot picked up the biggest Fried Bun into Sherri's plate and said, "it's very hot. Be careful when you eat it later." Elliot picked up another one for himself and began to answer the question asked by Sherri just now. "Before I founded the Leican Group, I had been living abroad. You know, there is no hot food abroad. Every morning, there will be sandwiches and milk, so I missed the Chinese breakfast very much." "Yes, I used to prepare Chinese breakfast for myself when I was in America. I seldom ate bread." Sherri took a bite of the fried bread, but she didn't expect the meat juice to splash all over. Elliot quickly took out a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth. "Didn't I tell you to be careful when eating?" It sounded like he was blaming her, but also a little spoiled.
Sherri was a little embarrassed. She was not sure about their relationship yet. What happened last night really happened, but in this impetuous and prosperous society where there's no need to be responsible for each other after having sex, she's now a little confused. Last night, she was more like a person who got lost by intimate contact and warmth, wasn't she? And it was Elliot who took the initiative. He was a normal man. Even if something like that happened, it was reasonable. Was that also the "take what we need" as agreed before?
"I didn't like to go to Western restaurants when I was in the United States, and the Chinese restaurants there were not authentic either. So most of the time, I cooked myself. I didn't cook so well at the beginning, but now I've become familiar with cooking." Sherri tried to change the topic.
Yes, I know." Elliot took a sip of the hot porridge unhurriedly.
Of course he knew that he had stayed in her apartment for a whole week when he had been rescued by Sherri by accident abroad.
A week was actually very short, but for an inheritor like Elliot who had a great family background, it was an exception for him to stay in a strange woman's house for a whole week. If it wasn't his family who looked for him everywhere, he would have stayed there longer.
He didn't know whether Sherri had been looking for that silent patient after he left without saying goodbye. Or that in the following year, whether she had thought of that "passer-by".
Elliot would never forget that in that small apartment, Sherri was busy cooking in the kitchen. Unfortunately, because of the car accident, he still wore gauze on his face, so she did not recognize him even now. "You know? When did you eat the food I cooked?" Sherri looked suspiciously at the man sitting opposite the table, who was enjoying his breakfast calmly.
"Kate had said it." Elliot said without hesitation. It seemed that he was more and more proficient in telling lies to Sherri.
"Ah." Sherri didn't doubt on him.
Sometimes, she would help Kate Zhang to cook, but Kate would usually refuse, "Mrs. Mo, why did you come here? There's so much oil and smoke in the kitchen. You must be tired after a day's work. Go to rest. Dinner will be ready soon!"
However, Sherri had never been used to the feeling of being served, which was different from her two cousins. Therefore, she had been independent since childhood, not to mention that she also liked to cook. She would feel happy and satisfied to see her family eat the food she carefully prepared, wouldn't she.
"Sherri, after you finish eating, we'll go to the hospital. You don't have to go to work this weekend." After breakfast, Elliot picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully. He looked noble. "But I have recovered, haven't I? Do I still need to go to the hospital for a reexamination?"
With a beautiful smile at the corners of his mouth and a hint of banter in his eyes, Elliot said, "we are going to see Nana. What's wrong? Have you forgotten your own sister? My wife. "
The last sentence, "my wife", was lengthened by Elliot at the end intentionally, euphemistically and numbly scratching people's heart. Sherri almost buried her head into the bowl. She was too shy and embarrassed.
In the past few days, she couldn't go to see Alina. If she had been discharged from the hospital, her first thought would have been to visit her sister. But today, the first thing popped up in her mind was to go to the hospital for a reexamination!
'Oh my God! Did I really fell in love with Elliot?'.
While Sherri was lost in various fancies and conjectures, she suddenly felt a chill on her forehead. Just now, she was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice that Elliot had already stood up and walked to her side.
Elliot tucked Sherri's hair behind her ear and said, "your hair is falling down." Sherri could swear that she was holding back her laughter when she heard what Elliot said.
After breakfast, the two of them got on the car. It seemed that something occurred to Sherri all of a sudden. She took the initiative to fasten the seat belt. In the driver's seat, Elliot took a glance at the cute little girl next to him and drove to the hospital with a smile in a good mood.
Kate saw the scene clearly in a corner of the yard. "Since our Mr.Mo married Mrs. Mo, he has started laughing more and more. Mrs. Mo is really a good news for Mr. Mo!"
At 5 o'clock this morning, Elliot got up and told Kate not to prepare breakfast. Kate was still confused, but she didn't expect that it was Mr. Mo who wanted to prepare breakfast for Mrs. Mo in person.
Elliot had always been well-off, and he was usually busy with his work, so there was little chance for him to cook himself. But this time he did it well. Although his hands were still splashed with a few drops of oil, it could be seen that he was happy while cooking.
Seeing the arrival of Sherri in the ward, Alina pursed her lips and asked aggrievedly, "why did you come to see me so late? I'm so bored here."
Alina Leng had been receiving treatment in the hospital all the time. After the accident happened to Sherri, Elliot specifically told Theo Gu and other doctors and nurses who could get in touch with Sherri not to tell anyone about what had happened to her, and even confiscated all the electronic equipment in Alina's ward with the excuse of not being able to be faced with radiation, so as to prevent her from reading the news and making her mood fluctuate and getting worse. Only when the problem was completely solved could all be recovered.
So in the past few days, Alina had been very bored. Although her ward was full of fluffy dolls and video game machines, but how could young people nowadays leave the Internet completely. Taking out the snacks and cakes they had prepared, Sherri knew that Alina liked desserts the most. "Well, my dear sister, don't be angry. Look what I bought for you."
Alina's eyes lit up immediately when she saw the delicious food. She had forgotten the fact that her sister hadn't come to see her for ages. "They are all my favorite food! Thank you!
"1
Theo had personally prepared the meals for her these days. How could he prepare these delicious food for her? In Theo's eyes, snacks were the chemical product of countless food add UPS, and cakes were so sweet that make greasy teeth. He would never touch them.
Alina opened the packages excitedly and was about to put a piece of lemon cheese cake into her mouth. At that time, Theo entered the ward and said, "no!"
Hearing his voice, Alina turned her head and looked at Theo's livid face. She was stunned for a second, and then took a big bite of the cake in front of him. She licked her lips on purpose to show it to Theo. Theo was even more furious. He walked quickly to Alina and said, "I told you to eat light food. How can you eat something with heavy salt and sugar?" Then he turned to look at Sherri and said, "you can't buy these for Alina anymore!"
Seeing that Theo was teaching his sister a lesson, Alina immediately retorted, "I asked the nurse a few days ago and she praised me for my recovery. I can have some snacks now!"
"Am I your attending doctor or that nurse?" Theo picked up a full bag of snacks and shook it in front of Alina. The food in the bag rubbed against each other, "is this only a little bit?" Alina knew that it would be her on the wrong side this time. She lowered her head and whispered, "I won't eat all of them today. I will eat a little every day for several months."
"All right, all right. I won't buy it for her next time!" "Don't be angry, calm down guys" Said Sherri beside them.
"I paid for it. Theo, you should blame me first." Elliot, who had been silently watching the drama aside, opened his mouth. It would be better if he didn't say anything, but if he did start talking, he would continue to talk endlessly.
Theo didn't dare to blame his brother. He put the snacks on the table, wiped his nose and glared at Alina, who was gloating, and said reluctantly, "then you can only eat a lemon cheese cake today. Not too much!"
"Yes, doctor Gu!" With a smile on her face, Alina showed her two cute canine teeth and began to eat. The four of them were talking and laughing in the ward. It was a very harmonious picture, but the ringtone of Sherri broke the harmony.
It was a call from Jonathon Leng, and Sherri walked out of the ward to answered the phone.
"Sherri, have you made up your mind? You cousin Michelle, has been staying at home for the past few days. I even didn't dare to sleep. Yesterday, I dreamed of your father. Alas... You always like to have unrealistic dreams when you get old. "
Jonathon stressed on purpose. As a cunning old fox who had lived for decades, he knew clearly what kind of card was the most suitable for dealing with such a young generation as Sherri. And family affection was undoubtedly the most effective card for her.
