After she finished practicing, the coach said that Lu Yunfan’s waist would shrink by at least two centimeters. It didn’t mean that she would have lost her fat. It meant her muscles would be tightened as if she was secured to a belt. When Lu Yunfan heard this, she was very tempted and wanted to give it a try. Therefore, she could only bear the pain of not seeing Lin Chen this afternoon to go to the gym.

Lin Chen could tell that Lu Yunfan still wanted to go to the gym this afternoon, so he didn’t stop her. Lin Chen put down his chopsticks and napkin, wiped his mouth, and said, “Okay, see you tomorrow!”

“Brother Lin Chen...” Lu Yunfan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Actually, please try not to work overtime at the company today. Go home and accompany Auntie Liang! Auntie Liang is very lonely to be at home by herself! Sister Nuan Nuan is busy, and Sister Lin Ran is as busy as you. Uncle isn’t at home, so Auntie Liang is the only one at home. How pitiful!”

Lin Chen was a little suspicious of Lu Yunfan’s words. Would Liang Mulan really be lonely at home?

As far as he knew, Liang Mulan had always been the busiest in the Lin family...

She was busy attending gatherings, learning how to cook, learning how to plant flowers... She attended yoga classes, and she had never stopped attending all sorts of hobbies classes. Recently, she had fallen in love with the bonsai, spending her days at home. She had plenty of time, and she wasn’t willing to be with her daughters.

Before Liang Mulan knew that Lin Chen and Lu Yunfan were dating, the subject of conversation during breakfast would be about Lin Chen getting into a relationship as soon as possible...

But ever since she found out that Lin Chen had started dating Lu Yunfan, she would keep their conversation during breakfast short and would immediately go to tend to her bonsai after she was done with her meal.

That afternoon, Lin Chen got off work on time. Since his girlfriend wasn’t available for a date, he was a little lost about what he should do. Recalling his girlfriend’s reminder over the phone, Lin Chen decided to go home early.

Liang Mulan, who was watering the plants in the yard, was surprised to see Lin Chen home early. “Eh? Why aren’t you on a date with Fanfan?”

“She signed up for a private lesson at the gym to lose weight,” Lin Chen replied before casually removing his suit jacket and handing it to the servants. He then took the spray bottle from Liang Mulan’s hands and watered the flowers for Liang Mulan. “She called me earlier at noon and told me that you’re very lonely being at home by yourself. She told me to come home early and accompany you!”

Liang Mulan took a towel from the round table to wipe her hands. Hearing Lin Chen’s words, she smiled. “Yo... so obedient to your girlfriend!”

Lin Chen didn’t say anything, but he couldn’t help but feel amused when he thought of the young lady’s solemn tone.

“This silly lady, she really believed whatever I said... I only said that because I wanted to lure her to our place and familiarize herself with our family’s environment!” Liang Mulan took a sip of water, her eyes filled with a fondness for Lu Yunfan. “She really reminded you to come home and accompany me!”

Lin Chen’s tall figure stood against the sunlight, one hand in his pocket as he watered the flowers, making him look gentle. Liang Mulan looked at her son with a tender smile in her eyes.

Liang Mulan was truly lonely, but she didn’t want the children to know about it, lest they get worried...

Lin Chen was already tired from being busy with work every day. Now that she had retired and had nothing to do at home, even if she couldn’t help her son, she couldn’t add to her son’s troubles.

Liang Mulan instructed the servants to bring Lin Chen a hot towel before putting on gloves and picking up a pair of scissors to trim her bonsai.

The mother and son didn’t say anything. One was watering the flowers while the other was trimming the bonsai.

Under the setting sun, the scene looked unexpectedly warm and harmonious.

“What do you want to eat tonight? Mom will cook personally...” Liang Mulan asked Lin Chen.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and thought about it, then suddenly smiled and said, “I haven’t eaten your handmade noodles in a long time!”

“Not that one. I just got myself a manicure. It’s inconvenient to make handmade noodles with these nails!” Liang Mulan rejected without thinking.

What happened to being a loving mother?

Lin Chen’s vision swept over Liang Mulan’s gloved hands and said, “Then you can stir-fry some food and satisfy your desire to be a loving mother...”

Liang Mulan was speechless. action

Don’t say it out even if you see through it, and we can still have a good mother-and-son relationship!

Although Liang Mulan rejected Lin Chen’s request, Lin Chen still ate the handmade noodles that Liang Mulan personally made at dinner that night.

It was just that during dinner, Liang Mulan’s heart kept aching for her nails. She had just gotten herself such beautiful nails, but because of the kneading of the dough and the rolling of the noodles, they had become a bit plain-looking.

Lin Chen observed Liang Mulan’s nails for a while, but he couldn’t tell what Liang Mulan had done with her nails. There didn’t seem to be anything special on her nails...

“I applied a layer of nail polish!” Liang Mulan raised her hand and showed it to Lin Chen. “Why are you so thoughtless like your father! Look carefully. This is nude-colored nail polish. If Fanfan had some nail polish on, you’d better praise her! Don’t be so unmindful like now, saying that you can’t tell. Girls would be sad!”

Lin Chen was speechless.

Lu Yunfan probably wouldn’t like things like putting on nail polish!

Wasn’t it strange to have something sticky adhered to the fingernails?

Indeed, he couldn’t understand the women’s world. Lin Chen shook his head and quietly ate his noodles.

Liang Mulan’s handmade noodles had the flavor of others. In the past, when Lin Nuan was still living at the Lin family’s house, she always said that this was her mother’s flavor.

It was only now that Lin Chen understood what Lin Nuan meant. The food that a mother personally made had warmth that others couldn’t provide.

...

Lu Yunfan, who hadn’t been on a date with Lin Chen today, had found the gym to be quite fun. Although her abdomen was sore, after her trainer showed her the comparison of her waist’s measurements from before and after the training, Lu Yunfan couldn’t help but love the gym.

Originally, Lu Yunfan had thought that she would do as previously said, one day of weights and another day of aerobics.

However, after the trainer measured Lu Yunfan’s body fat, he said that Lu Yunfan could have a day of abdomen training, a day of hip training, and a day of back training. Then, there would be a day of aerobics to calm her body before it repeated for a second round...

Lu Yunfan looked at the pretty girls on the wall and nodded. “Okay, Coach! I’ll come on time every day!”

After that, the trainer gave Lu Yunfan a meal plan and asked her to follow it strictly.

If Lu Yunfan felt that the meal plan was inconvenient, the gym would provide her with fresh meals every day. They would send the meals to Lu Yunfan’s side on time.

In order to have a good figure and keep Lin Chen by her side, Lu Yunfan didn’t hesitate at all. She swiped her card and excitedly came out of the gym before calling Lin Chen to tell him all about it. “Just now, the trainer asked me to have a taste of the meal provided by the gym. Although the taste was a little bland, it was quite delicious!”

After hearing this, Lin Chen wondered if Lu Yunfan had fallen for some tricks. However, since the young lady was so happy, he couldn’t bear to hurt her, so he only asked her, “Will you be eating their meals every day in the future?”
