Chapter 17: Why did Xiao Chengjin thank her?

When the two returned to the Su family, Su Ruan Ruan asked Xiao Cheng Jin while washing the lunchbox, "What do you want to eat?"

There were no noodles left, so Xiao Cheng Jin had to think of something else to eat.

Xiao Cheng Jin, of course, didn't dare to make any requests, "I'll eat whatever you make."

Upon hearing this, Su Ruan Ruan thought for a moment and decided to pick some vegetables from the backyard to make a bowl of gnocchi soup for Xiao Cheng Jin, adding an egg to it.

In this life and the previous one combined, Su Ruan Ruan had been cooking for decades, so her culinary skills were quite impressive.

Xiao Cheng Jin took only one bite and all the jumbled thoughts in his mind were thrown out of the window as he focused on eating.

At fifteen, a growing boy can eat a lot, so even though Su Ruan Ruan made a large bowl, Xiao Cheng Jin only ate until he was seventy percent full.

But Su Ruan Ruan didn't know that!

The Su family only had Su Ruan Ruan and Aunt Chen, and neither of them had a big appetite. Su Ruan Ruan herself could easily finish a bowl of gnocchi soup like this.

Xiao Cheng Jin, of course, didn't dare to say he wasn't full. On the contrary, he was secretly thinking about the canned fruit his father had brought back from the county town, which seemed to have one unopened can left. He could bring it over for Su Ruan Ruan to eat later.

If Su Ruan Ruan ate something sweet, she would be in a good mood and wouldn't casually hit people.

Seeing that Xiao Cheng Jin had eaten his fill and still hadn't left, Su Ruan Ruan was puzzled, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Xiao Cheng Jin, "..."

Seeing Su Ruan Ruan's impatient expression, Xiao Cheng Jin decided to quickly go back and get the canned fruit!

When he was about to reach the front gate, Xiao Cheng Jin stopped again, turned around, and said to Su Ruan Ruan, "By the way, Liu Xiuli was docked half a morning's work points for being absent without reason."

He had come specifically to tell Su Ruan Ruan about this, hoping to make her happy. But he had seen Su Ruan Ruan hugging the withered tree, and by the time he remembered, it was only now.

Upon hearing this, Su Ruan Ruan was initially stunned, but soon smiled, "Serves her right."

Su Ruan Ruan was cute, and her smile was sweeter than honey. Seeing her smile, Xiao Cheng Jin also smiled, "Don't worry, if she comes to bother you again, I'll tell Auntie."

Auntie?

Su Ruan Ruan didn't think much about it, but she understood what was going on.

Xiao Cheng Jin's aunt, Xiao Aimei, was a scorekeeper, so he must have told her about Liu Xiuli's absence.

Liu Xiuli being docked work points didn't benefit Su Ruan Ruan in any way, but the thought of Liu Xiuli being upset made her happy.

Su Ruan Ruan was even more grateful to Xiao Cheng Jin for indirectly causing this.

"Wait for me!"

Su Ruan Ruan said this and quickly walked into the house.

After entering the house, Su Ruan Ruan closed the door, then entered the Hundred Treasures Space and found a piece of oil paper to wrap ten persimmon cakes.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Cheng Jin saw Su Ruan Ruan coming out with a wrapped oil paper.

"Here, for you to eat!"

"For me?"

Xiao Cheng Jin couldn't believe it. Did Su Ruan Ruan know that he hadn't eaten enough, so she specially found something else for him to eat?

Sure enough, Su Ruan Ruan not only looked soft, but also had a soft heart, just a little bit stronger!

Taking the wrapped oil paper, Xiao Cheng Jin solemnly thanked her and then quickly left.

He had to hurry home to get the canned fruit!

Watching Xiao Cheng Jin's figure getting farther and farther away, Su Ruan Ruan was somewhat puzzled.

Why did Xiao Cheng Jin thank her?
