After her ex-husband became a Hong Kong entertainment circle tycoon, he put his arm around her waist

Wang Ma didn't think much of it. Cooking was something she was good at, and she was happy to teach anyone who wanted to learn.

"It's finally done!"

Nan Shu wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a soft breath.

Although the dishes in front of me couldn't be described as having perfect color, aroma, and taste, they still looked quite appealing.

Seeing these dishes, Nan Shu felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Wang Ma, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but praise her as well.

"Miss Nan's skills are quite good; she managed to achieve this effect on her first attempt."

Nan Shu smiled slightly, "I wonder if the children will like it."

As soon as Nan Shu finished speaking, Nuomi's soft voice rang out.

"Aunt Wang, what delicious food did you make? Nuomi is hungry..."

Upon hearing Nuomi's voice, Nan Shu's heart jumped, and she subconsciously turned to look at the kitchen door.

Nuomi, a tiny creature, leaned against the kitchen door, its eyes still sleepy.

Seeing the glutinous rice, Nan Shu's heart softened instantly.

Nan Shu came to the glutinous rice noodles and couldn't help but reach out and poke Nuomi's little face.

"Are you hungry? Your favorite dishes are freshly made here, come on over."

Nan Shu took Nuomi's little hand and personally carried her to the chair.

Nan Shu felt a pang of sadness as she looked at Nuomi's tiny body.

She has never been able to stay by Nuomi's side as she has grown up.

She missed out on a lot of the time when she was a glutinous rice girl.

From now on, she must never be absent from Nuomi's life.

Enen ran in from outside, went straight to Nan Shu's side, and hugged her tightly.

"Mommy, I'm hungry too!"

Nan Shu shook her head helplessly when she saw the coquettish Hmm.

"Okay, you get a share too."

Just as Nan Shu was about to pick up Enen, a voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.

"Boys shouldn't be spoiled like this; you can't always hold him."

Nan Shu frowned slightly and looked up at the doorway.

Qi Yuye crossed his arms and looked at Nan Shu with a serious expression.

Hmm, her nose twitched slightly, looking a little aggrieved.

Seeing that Hmm was like this, Nan Shu was about to go and coax her.

Qi Yuye suddenly strode over, picked up Enen in one scoop, and spun her around in the air.

She laughed heartily and hugged Qi Yuye's neck.

After circling around, Qi Yuye put Hmm down.

Qi Yuye squatted down and looked at Hmm with a serious expression.

"Yes, yes, you're a big kid now, and a little man too. Do you know what a man should do?"

Hmm looked at Qi Yuye with a puzzled expression and shook her head.

"You need to understand and care for your mother. Sometimes she gets very tired, so you need to protect her, okay?"

Hmm stared at Qi Yuye thoughtfully for a long time, then nodded firmly.

"Okay, I'll remember!"

Qi Yuye reached out and patted Enen's head, then picked Enen up and placed him on a chair.

Seeing this scene, Nan Shu felt as if something inside her had been poked.

Enen has always been well taken care of by Chen Jingyan, but Enen knows that Chen Jingyan is not his biological father, so there is always something missing between them.

But now, seeing the interaction between Qi Yuye and Enen, Nan Shu finally understood what Enen had been lacking all along.

Nan Shu and Qi Yuye exchanged a glance, an unspoken understanding flowing between them.

At the doorway, Lin Xi looked at Nan Shu and Qi Yuye, and an invisible anger burned in her heart.

She strode to the dining table and grabbed Nuomi's arm.

"How about Mom takes you out to eat?"

Nuomi looked up at Linxi, somewhat reluctantly.

"Mommy, Nuomi is hungry..."

Seeing Nuomi like this, Nan Shu's heart softened.

"It's getting late. Nuomi needs to go to kindergarten after her meal, so let her eat at home."

Lin Xi clenched her fists, noticing that Qi Yuye beside her was also unhappy, so she could only grit her teeth and force a smile.

"Okay then, let's eat Nuomi at home today, and Mom will make it for you herself tomorrow, okay?"

Lin Xi emphasized the word "mother," and Nan Shu trembled upon hearing it.

Seeing the expression on Nan Shu's face, Lin Xi felt much better.

The two children ate with great relish, but the three people who were left out of breakfast each had their own thoughts.

After breakfast was finally over, Nan Shu was about to send En En and Nan Shu to school when Lin Qi grabbed Nuomi's hand.

"You don't need to deliver the rice today. I'm going that way anyway, so let me, the mother, deliver it myself."

Seeing Lin Xi's thoughts, Nan Shu paused in her outstretched hand.

"All right."

Nan Shu knew that this matter couldn't be rushed, so she didn't insist.

Nan Shu held Enen's hand, and Lin Xi held Nuomi's hand; the two walked out together.

Qi Yuye watched the two leave, feeling a little uneasy. Just as he was about to follow, his phone suddenly lit up, and a rapid ringtone made him stop in his tracks.

Lin Xi suddenly stopped when she reached the door.

"Uncle Wang, please put the two children in the car first."

Lin Xi gave an instruction to the butler beside her.

Butler Wang nodded, took Enen's hand with one hand, picked up Nuomi with the other, and led the two children to the car.

Nan Shu turned to look at Lin Xi, her eyes filled with wariness.

"What are you going to do?"

"What am I supposed to do?"

Lin Xi gave a cold laugh.

"Nan Shu, don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

Lin Xi approached Nan Shu step by step.

"Do you think that what you're doing now can make up for all the love you've missed for Nuomi over the years?"

"When Nuomi was little, she was bullied in kindergarten. Where were you then? How dare you accuse me of not being a good mother? And what about you?"

Upon hearing these words, Nan Shu felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

"That's not how it is, I..."

She simply thought Nuomi was dead; she was unaware of Nuomi's existence...

"What do you mean, 'not what'? Since you were so heartless to leave Yu Ye back then, why are you going back to him now? Do you know how selfish you are?"

Lin Xi's face was full of mockery.

"Didn't you only come back because Yu Ye took control of Shengda Group? What right do you have to be Nuomi's mother?"

"Nuomi only recognizes me as her mother!"

Lin Xi reached out and shoved Nan Shu, her gaze turning cold.

Nan Shu took two steps back, looking lost and confused, muttering to herself.

"That's not it, I just wanted to make amends..."

"I'm warning you, you better stay away from Nuomi from now on. She's still young and can't handle this kind of stimulation."

After saying that, Lin Xi left in her high heels.

Nan Shu watched Lin Xi's departing figure, then shifted her gaze to the car not far ahead, where Nuomi was peeking out and waving at Lin Xi.

Nuomi now only recognizes Lin Xi as her mother...

This realization caused Nan Shu a pang of heartache.

She clutched her chest and sat down on the ground, looking pained.

After a while, Nan Shu finally came to her senses and personally drove Enen to school.

Downstairs at Shengda Group.

Nan Shu looked up at the towering office building in front of her and sighed inwardly.
