, pretending to care for us
as if he had truly reformed. But
I knew this
was just the calm before the storm. The whole
family was eating dinner in the dining room. Dad
brought a pot of hot chicken soup. "
I spent all afternoon making this black bone chicken soup
. It's very good for your health.
Chenghui's legs have just gotten better. You
should drink a little more. Wife, you're
working a lot these days. You should drink some too."
The whole family stared at the soup in front of them
, but no one even
lifted a spoon. Mom looked at them coldly,
as if she were witnessing a blow
. Jiang, you
don't need to work so hard. Neither of us
is hungry. Dad said, "Wife, are you still
blaming me? I've kicked Liu Ruyan
out of the house. I've even given
the shares to Cheng Feng. Now I really just
want to live happily with you
. Some things
can't be fixed by just making a meal." Dad said, "I know
you all need some time. By the way,
I have something to tell you all.
