Cheng Su stayed in the office until closing time before she returned home, and by the time she entered, she already smelled the fragrance of the meal.
"You're back? I've made dinner. Would you like to wash your face before eating, or would you prefer to eat first and then wash?" Qi Taiguo asked as he stood up from the couch.
Cheng Su looked at the dining table where they usually ate together. Dishes were set, but covered with plates, obscuring their contents.
"Let's eat first." Cheng Su set down her bag, washed her hands, and sat at the table.
Qi Taiguo opened the thermos first, ladling out a bowl of soup for her and said, "It's chicken soup. I've skimmed off the fat after removing the skin. Drink it while it's hot!"
Cheng Su looked at the soup that exuded a hint of angelica aroma without much oil; after taking a sip, the corners of her mouth curved slightly: "Thank you."
