Chi Yue was cooking in the kitchen, while Chu Shuo stayed in the living room.
Her cellphone was on the coffee table, and when the ringtone sounded, Chu Shuo called out to her. She might not have heard him because the kitchen door was closed.
Chu Shuo glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
The voice of Fu Rongyin came from the speaker, "I'll come home for dinner tonight."
Chu Shuo chuckled, "Then you'd better hurry back, she's cooking."
The other end of the phone went silent immediately.
Chu Shuo raised an eyebrow, "Why the silence?"
Fu Rongyin, unable to distinguish between joy and anger, replied, "Don't touch her."
"You're overthinking it, I'm just mooching a meal at her place."
Fu Rongyin didn't say anything else and hung up the phone.
Chu Shuo put the phone back and continued playing with his cell.
Chi Yue finished cooking and came out, with Chu Shuo immediately standing up, "Need help?"
"Could you help me bring out the dishes?"
"Okay."
