Chapter 836 Playing Games to Kill Time
"It's okay. I'm very confident in my cooking skills. It won't take much time to make the decision. But if I have more time, I can prepare more thoroughly and it will be more perfect by then."
"And if time passes quickly, Uncle Cheng can stay and attend Xiang Xiang's Hundred Days Banquet before going back. That would be great!"
"Really? Wu You cares so much about me? Uncle, I am so touched."
"Uncle Cheng was so kind to me and gave me such a valuable gift. I am not an ungrateful person. Of course I have to think about you all the time. It's a pity that I don't have the superpower to change time at will, otherwise everything would be perfect."
"It's okay. It's not certain whether I will miss it or not. If I have time to come back by then, won't that be fine?"
"I hope Uncle Cheng has time. We should get together more often to have some fun."
"I like this feeling too, but work and life don't allow it. You girls should live a more relaxed life."
"Uncle Cheng would definitely envy me and Manman if he sees us now, but we have been thinking about whether or not to go out to work. We feel that staying at home all day is a waste of time. We should create some value for this society at such a young age."
"That's a good idea. You and Manman should think about it carefully. Anyway, no matter what, I, like your sister Mu Bai, will support any decision you two make."
"Okay, I'll think about what to do about this matter after I get back."
While they were talking, Xiang Xiang listened and fell asleep again.
"Shh! Think about it! He has fallen asleep while we were chatting. Let's speak softly so as not to wake him up. He is growing while sleeping. If we disturb him, it will be bad if he doesn't sleep and doesn't grow taller in the future."
"It's not that exaggerated. He won't be woken up by us if we speak at a normal volume. As long as you don't scream suddenly, it will be fine. Wu You, aren't you being too cautious?"
"Really? Haven't I ever held a child to sleep? After I coaxed him to sleep last night, I immediately put him in the cradle to rest. Now, should we also carry Xiangxiang back to the room and let him have a good rest?"
"Let me do it. You guys just sit here and chat. I'll hold Xiangxiang and go back to the room to sleep. This way you don't have to worry about him being disturbed by the noise, and you can still continue chatting."
As Zhou Xiaoying said this, she was about to stand up and take Xiangxiang from Wu Yue's arms, but when her hand was halfway out, she was stopped by Jiang Mubai.
"It's okay. We'll have dinner soon. If we send him upstairs, we'll have to send someone to look after him. I'll ask Uncle Chen to get the cradle out. There happens to be another one downstairs. We can just put him in the cradle and watch over him."
Since Jiang Mubai said so, Zhou Xiaoying naturally followed her arrangements.
After a while, the housekeeper brought out the empty cradle. After seeing it, Wu You carefully put Xiangxiang in the bed to rest.
Xiang Xiang slept uneasily in the new environment. Wu You was afraid of waking the child up when he saw it. Zhou Xiaoying guided Wu You to rock the cradle to calm Xiang Xiang's emotions.
After Wu You rocked there for a few minutes, he fell asleep again and stopped moving.
Lunch had just been prepared in the kitchen. Jiang Mubai knew that Wu You and Manman had not had breakfast yet, so he asked everyone to go to the restaurant to eat quickly.
Cheng Xiangdi and Zhou Xiaoying got up earlier, so they were a little hungry now. Jiang Mubai was the only one who got up at an awkward time, neither early nor late. She had not digested her breakfast yet and it was already lunch time. She was not very hungry now but she sat down at the dining table to eat with everyone.
Seeing that Jiang Mubai didn't move his chopsticks, Cheng Xiangdi knew that Jiang Mubai was not hungry yet: "If you are not hungry now, you will be hungry later. If you eat again in the afternoon, you will not be able to eat at dinner time. In this way, you will always be hungrier than others. So even if you are not very hungry, you should still eat something, even if it is just a bowl of soup."
"Okay, seeing that you are all eating, although I am not hungry, I have been motivated by you guys, so I will eat a few bites with you."
"The soup is still hot. Sister Mu Bai, I'll serve you a bowl and let it cool down. You can drink it after it cools down a bit."
"Thank you Wu You for the soup."
"You're welcome. The meal prepared by the kitchen at noon is also very sumptuous. Sister Mu Bai, remember to eat more vegetables."
"Okay, doesn't she know what your sister Mu Bai eats every day? Does she need you to tell her in person? You should just take care of yourself. How can she eat if you keep talking to your sister Mu Bai?"
Wu You stuck out her tongue in embarrassment after hearing what Manman said. After Manman spoke, she really didn't talk to Jiang Mubai during the meal.
After no one spoke, everyone ate lunch quickly. In less than an hour, several people began to leave the table one after another and go to the living room to sit and rest.
Jiang Mubai and Wu You got up late and were not sleepy, so they did not plan to go back to the building for a nap. Zhou Xiaoying and Cheng Xiangdi needed to go, so Jiang Mubai did not stop Zhou Xiaoying from taking Xiangxiang with her.
The environment upstairs is quieter, and Jiang Mubai also hopes that his child can have a good sleep.
Before Cheng Xiangdi went upstairs to rest, he specifically told Wu You and Man Man: "Let's not go back right after dinner. I'm sleepy now and I'm afraid it's not safe to drive later. Let's go back together after I take a nap."
"Okay, Wu You and I are not in a hurry. Uncle Cheng, just go upstairs and have a rest. Don't worry about us."
After Cheng Xiangdi made things clear, he went back to his room to rest. Jiang Mubai, Manman and Wu You sat on the sofa in the living room, bored.
"It does seem quite boring to just sit there like this, how about we play some cards?"
"Don't move, we just finished our meal."
"Sister Mu Bai, don't you even have the energy to grab a card? Is your stomach so full? I didn't see you eat much."
"Although I got up late in the morning, I felt very weak after eating this lunch. Maybe it's because of my biological clock?"
"How about flying chess? It doesn't require you to draw cards or use your brain."
"Flying chess? There's nothing like this in the villa, right?"
"It's okay. We can play on our phones. The rules are very simple and anyone with a hand can play. I'll briefly introduce the rules to you..."
After listening to Wu You's explanation, Jiang Mubai indeed thought that the rules of the game were very simple. Mainly because she had never played this game before, she was very curious and willing to give it a try. In addition, although she didn't have much strength now, she would definitely not be able to sleep if she went back to her room to rest. The three of them didn't know what to do to pass the time here, and Jiang Mubai saw that Wu You really wanted to play, so he simply accompanied her.
Jiang Mubai and Manman clicked on the link sent by Wu You. It took four people to play a game, but they only had three, so Wu You and they were randomly matched with an online friend.
The game officially started. Jiang Mubai was lazily sitting on the sofa playing, but when her chess piece was kicked back home just after it took off and took a few steps, Jiang Mubai's desire to win suddenly arose.
She became alert, sat up straight, and started counting the steps on the phone in her hand to see whose flying chess piece she could kick back home. At the beginning, the three of them had a strong sense of contract and united to deal with the netizens they matched with, but after they became blood-thirsty, their team began to become disunited.
