In the next moment, Gu Zi opened her eyes. She was greeted by the mature and handsome face of Su Shen.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, sitting up hesitantly. “Su Shen, you’re back!”

Su Shen stood up, glancing at the peacefully sleeping Lele. “Why not go sleep on the bed? You know to tuck Lele in, why not do the same for yourself?”

The man’s deep voice carried a touch of tenderness, yet it was faint, almost imperceptible.

Gu Zi felt he was stern. Suddenly, she felt as though she was caught red-handed doing something wrong.

Hurriedly, she straightened Le Le’s blanket, saying, “I was planning to take a short nap, so I didn’t bring Le Le upstairs.”

Gu Zi felt an awkwardness creeping in their interaction, probably due to that kiss.

Thinking about it made the scene from that day replay in her mind, making her forehead tense instantly.

“Have you eaten?” she asked. “I can make something for you.”

Su Shen found her awkwardness somewhat amusing. As he turned away, a faint smile flickered across his lips.

He ascended the stairs, saying, “I’ve already eaten. I’ll go upstairs for a shower.”

When Gu Zi looked over, the man’s well-defined jaw turned over, revealing a

slightly cold and severe aura.

Her heart thumped. Would Su Shen find her too impatient and get mad at her?

‘Gu Zi, as I’ve told you before, don’t rush things!’ she thought to herself.

She couldn’t help but feel a little depressed as she thought about it. She turned around and took a suitable amount of bean jelly grass into the kitchen.

She rinsed the dried bean jelly grass with water and soaked it in water. Then, she went upstairs to get her watch and put it on. It would be convenient to check the time later.

When she came out again, Su Shen had just come out of the shower. His face was much gentler than usual.

He changed into a black short-sleeved shirt and wore slim, casual pants, giving the impression of legs going on forever.

But did he not like her being too forward? For the first time, Gu Zi ignored him, closing the door and going downstairs.

Su Shen, who originally wanted to say something, stood still, feeling she had distanced herself from him.

When Gu Zi returned to the kitchen, the bean jelly grass had just softened. She took a pair of scissors and cut them into thumb-sized sections.

She put them into the pot, then added an appropriate amount of water and edible soda and began to boil it.

Su Shen came over and asked her if she needed any help. At that moment, Le Le called for her.

Gu Zi resisted the urge to go to Lele and said, “You go take care of Le Le, I can manage here.”

Having said that, she proceeded to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

Su Shen could only go and look after Le Le.

An hour later, the kitchen was filled with a refreshing scent of traditional Chinese medicine.

Gu Zi turned off the fire and filtered out the thick black juice. Then, she poured it into another pot without residue and continued simmering over low heat.

Then, she diluted the appropriate amount of cornstarch with water to form a smooth, grain-free paste. She stirred the juice in the pot with long chopsticks and ponred in the corpflonr paste

Gu Zi’s technique was skillful, swiftly transforming the pot’s contents into a thick, glossy gel-like substance.

She turned off the heat, pouring the thick black liquid into a large basin. This quantity would suffice for the family for three days.

When it naturally cooled down and took on the appearance of jelly, she could store it in the fridge. When they wanted to eat, it would be effortless.

He only needed to take an appropriate amount and cut it into small cubes, then add in small ingredients such as raisins, fruit cubes, and nuts.

Simply take an appropriate amount, cut it into small cubes, add raisins, fruit bits, crushed nuts, drizzle honey or brown sugar water on top—on a hot afternoon, it would be incredibly refreshing and smooth!

Gu Zi planned that after dinner, she would prepare a bowl for each of them to taste!

Checking the time, Su Bing and Su Li were almost back; she had to start cooking.

When she was about to get the meat, Su Shen came over and said, “Gu Zi, let’s talk.”

Gu Zi nodded. Even if he didn’t come to her, after being mad, she would still find Su Shen for a conversation. She wasn’t someone who liked cold wars.

At this moment, Su Bing and Su Li returned from school. Su Shen handed Su Le Le to Su Bing and went upstairs with Gu Zi.

Su Bing sensed something strange in the atmosphere but didn’t say anything.

As soon as Su Li entered the house, he was attracted by the pleasant aroma coming from the kitchen. “Big Brother, I’ll go to the kitchen. Stepmom must be experimenting with something delicious again!”

Su Bing’s face turned cold. “Have you finished your homework? Only after finishing it can you do other things.”

Su Li took back the step he had just taken, glancing hopefully towards the kitchen, but obediently sat down to do his homework.

Upstairs in Gu Zi’s room, the two sat facing each other, and Su Shen spoke first..
