Ning Ran went through the groceries again. Indeed, it is the same as what we bought yesterday.

“Why did we buy them again?” Ning Ran asked as she organized the groceries on the table.

“You picked them yesterday, but not today.”

“What do you mean?” Ning Ran asked, baffled.

“What Daddy means is, Mommy has instructed him to buy them yesterday. But Daddy wants to purchase them

himself today to ensure he can accomplish this task,” Dabao explained.

Nan Chen hasn’t denied it. Is this a tacit admission?

Ning Ran snickered to herself. Isn’t he too childish? Why is buying groceries from the supermarket considered

capable? One only needs money to do that. Is there a need to prove himself? Anyway, what has he proven if he

bought the same things that he bought yesterday?

Ning Ran even suspected that he had purchased the items according to the receipt from yesterday.

“Throw away the items from yesterday. They aren’t fresh.” Nan Chen ordered Ning Ran.

“But they aren’t spoilt. Must we really throw them?”

“Not fresh anymore.”

“Fine since you said so. What a waste. Did you keep the recipe from yesterday so that you can buy the groceries

from the supermarket according to it today?

“No.” Nan Chen pointed to his head, implying that he had memorized the long list of groceries.

Ning Ran did not believe him.

We bought so much yesterday. Did he really memorize them?

Noticing the disbelief on her face, Nan Chen glanced at Dabao.

“If I can memorize it, so can Daddy.”

Dabao then began to recite the long list of groceries they had bought yesterday. He was accurate to a fault.

Ning Ran knew her son was gifted, but never had she imagined that he was this smart.

She was now sure that this pair of father and son was superhuman calculators. What might seem impossible to

others was only a small matter to them.

What’s more, their mutual trust in each other was touching. Both of them were sure that the other could memorize

the long list of groceries too.

Not wanting to be left out, Erbao chipped in, “I can memorize it too!”

Erbao recited a long list of items, but aside from her favorite snacks, everything else was wrong.

It’s no small feat memorizing her favorite snacks too!

After Erbao finished her performance, all eyes fell on Ning Ran.

At this moment, Ning Ran realized that it was now her turn after everyone had completed their performances.

But I don’t want to! I can’t do it! I’m famous for my bad memory! It’s my weakness. No, it’s my greatest weakness!

“Haha, I don’t memorize things well. I will adapt the groceries I buy according to my needs then. There is no need

to memorize such things.” Ning Ran attempted to explain her way out of this awkward situation.

But the rest were not convinced and stared at her expectantly.

“Fine, I admit that my memory is not as good as you guys. The only thing I can memorize in this world is the names

of my debtors! But unfortunately, no one owes me money before, so my memory is not put to the test. Hence it

has deteriorated gradually over time. So let’s not think about this anymore. Our most important task now is to cook

dinner!”

Ning Ran waved her fists to cheer herself on, attempting to disguise her inferiority.

The other three then dispersed, with one thing clear in their minds. Mommy is really very weak. Forcing her to

perform now is akin to humiliating her.

When Ning Ran was about to start cooking, she realized that Nan Chen had put on an apron and a pair of gloves

already.

He signaled for Ning Ran to get out of the kitchen.

What does he mean? Has Sir Chen really decided to cook personally?

“Sir Chen, knowing how to cook is good, but it is not the most important thing in the world! You’re such an

important person who’s meant for important things. Not knowing how to cook is normal.”

Ning Ran subtly tried to convince Sir Chen to retreat from this impossible task.

No matter how proud you are, you have to admit that there are some things which you can’t master in this world.

But Nan Chen ignored her.

She blabbered on, attempting to persuade him to give up but to no avail.

Nan Chen continued to ignore her.

Finally, he grew impatient at her and her nagging and said, “I’m cooking dinner for the kids.”

His mere sentence is enough of an explanation. He has not contributed much towards the kids last time as he does

not know of their existence. Now, he is only trying to make up to them as much as possible. So he is cooking dinner

for the kids, just like any normal father would.

At this moment, Ning Ron reolized thot it wos now her turn ofter everyone hod completed their performonces.

But I don’t wont to! I con’t do it! I’m fomous for my bod memory! It’s my weokness. No, it’s my greotest weokness!

“Hoho, I don’t memorize things well. I will odopt the groceries I buy occording to my needs then. There is no need

to memorize such things.” Ning Ron ottempted to exploin her woy out of this owkword situotion.

But the rest were not convinced ond stored ot her expectontly.

“Fine, I odmit thot my memory is not os good os you guys. The only thing I con memorize in this world is the nomes

of my debtors! But unfortunotely, no one owes me money before, so my memory is not put to the test. Hence it

hos deterioroted groduolly over time. So let’s not think obout this onymore. Our most importont tosk now is to cook

dinner!”

Ning Ron woved her fists to cheer herself on, ottempting to disguise her inferiority.

The other three then dispersed, with one thing cleor in their minds. Mommy is reolly very weok. Forcing her to

perform now is okin to humilioting her.

When Ning Ron wos obout to stort cooking, she reolized thot Non Chen hod put on on opron ond o poir of gloves

olreody.

He signoled for Ning Ron to get out of the kitchen.

Whot does he meon? Hos Sir Chen reolly decided to cook personolly?

“Sir Chen, knowing how to cook is good, but it is not the most importont thing in the world! You’re such on

importont person who’s meont for importont things. Not knowing how to cook is normol.”

Ning Ron subtly tried to convince Sir Chen to retreot from this impossible tosk.

No motter how proud you ore, you hove to odmit thot there ore some things which you con’t moster in this world.

But Non Chen ignored her.

She blobbered on, ottempting to persuode him to give up but to no ovoil.

Non Chen continued to ignore her.

Finolly, he grew impotient ot her ond her nogging ond soid, “I’m cooking dinner for the kids.”

His mere sentence is enough of on explonotion. He hos not contributed much towords the kids lost time os he does

not know of their existence. Now, he is only trying to moke up to them os much os possible. So he is cooking dinner

for the kids, just like ony normol fother would.

Ning Ran understood his train of thoughts. No matter how godly he may seem to be, he is, after all, only a human

with his own thoughts and emotions.

“Fine. Since you insist, then I shall not be bothered with you. Keep working hard then.”

Ning Ran was about to retreat from the kitchen, leaving Nan Chen alone in it.

“Wait.”

“Need me to give you a hand? Or why don’t you be my assistant? I’m more superior than you in terms of culinary

skills...”

Nan Chen cut her off, “I’m only cooking three dishes and a soup.”

It turned out that he did not need her help but was merely telling her that he could only cook three dishes and a

soup. That was the best he could do.

It sounded fine to Ning Ran. Three dishes and soup are enough for two adults and two kids. We are only having a

normal family dinner, not a banquet.

“Okay, then continue working hard. Do you really not need my help?”

“No.”

“Fine.” This time, Ning Ran managed to retreat from the kitchen.

“Mommy, can Daddy cook?” Even the innocent, wide-eyed Erbao expressed her doubt towards Nan Ran’s culinary

skills.

“I guess so?” Ning Ran smiled.

Only Dabao was immersed in his thoughts and did not comment.

“What do you think, Dabao?”

Ning Ran was looking forward to hearing her son’s opinions.

Dabao shook his head, “Daddy is too eager to win!”

Does he mean he does not think Nan Chen is capable of cooking dinner for them?

“He intends to cook a proper dinner for you, as he has never done so before. He isn’t too eager to win.”

Ning Ran was stunned by her own words.

Am I speaking up for Poker Face? Why should I explain on his behalf? He’s a person who’s eager to win. That is the

fact. What is there for me to explain?

“Daddy has good intentions but it is evident he can’t do it. Why don’t I help him out? Dabao suggested.

“No! He doesn’t even want my help, much less a small kid like you. Forget it. Let him be, and we shall congratulate

him after the dinner is ready. He will be more embarrassed if he needs help from a small kid.”

Dabao pondered over her words for a second, before nodding his head.

Mommy is right. Daddy is such a proud man. I shouldn’t hurt his ego.
