My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 2142: Chapter 2144: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

Who said I’m friends with the neighbor across the street?

She doesn’t even know if the person living across from her is round or flat, let alone what they look like.

"Miss Susan, please help me just this once. If you need anything another day, I promise I’ll come and cook for you. My son’s teacher is visiting for the first time, I can’t flake on them."

"..."

"Miss Susan, we are all from Hua Country, I beg you to help me this once."

Jiang Nuan looked at the anxious eyes of the person standing in front of her, and after an internal struggle for quite some time, she let out a breath, "What do I need to do?"

The Filipino maid, who had initially given up hope, immediately relaxed her forehead and said excitedly, "It’s very simple. The gentleman is very nice. You just need to cook the meals and leave them in the living room. Don’t worry about anything else. I’ll come over tomorrow morning to clean up."

"Is it that simple?" She couldn’t believe it.

After all, ever since she thanked the other side by knocking on their door and giving them a cake, they seemed to latch onto her, finding new reasons to come to her every day.

The Filipino maid, fearing she would back out, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "The gentleman is reading on the second floor and won’t disturb you. You just need to cook the meal, call out when you’re done downstairs, and you can leave. I do this every day."

Jiang Nuan reluctantly believed her, "Alright then."

The Filipino maid handed her the groceries and key all in a rush, finally asking her earnestly, "Miss Susan, I’m counting on you!"

...

Setting foot in the little garden across for the umpteenth time, Jiang Nuan couldn’t help but feel a sense of familiarity; what could she do? She had been there three times in two days, almost more times than she’d been to her own home.

She opened the door.

A bolt of yellow lightning rushed to her feet, barking incessantly.

"Little Potato, haven’t seen you for a day, and you’re still so energetic." Compared to you, I’m a real mess, hardly off work before I have to be a babysitter. Who’d I offend?

"Woof woof woof."

The little corgi wagged its tiny legs and frantically rubbed its head against her calves, making Jiang Nuan laugh uncontrollably as it tickled her.

After playing with the dog, she felt a lot better, brought the groceries into the living room, looked around, and found the kitchen.

The kitchen was filled with the latest model of a high-end home appliance brand, making Jiang Nuan smack her lips in surprise. She had seen the range hood and gas stove from this brand back home, and setting up a set would cost at least one hundred thousand yuan. It seemed her new neighbor was quite wealthy.

She was familiar with this brand since Fu Yi also liked using it, which saved her time understanding the kitchenware as she opened the fridge to look.

Inside, there were eggs, Australian steak, caviar, and she even found a piece of fresh foie gras, judging by its size and weight, it alone would cost a fortune.

"I take back what I said about being quite wealthy; it should be truly wealthy! Rich folks."

Murmuring to herself, she put the foie gras back, then checked what the Filipino maid had given her, rummaging through. There were ribs, beef, fish, and all kinds of vegetables.

Compared to the high-end ingredients in the fridge, what she was given was much more down-to-earth.

Jiang Nuan thought, trying to see the humor in her situation, perhaps they thought she couldn’t handle the premium stuff in the fridge and went to the supermarket to buy these specially for her.

Because she found something in that bag that’s truly rare to see in Mahali—hot pot seasoning!

Speaking of hot pot, she used to eat it often back home but rarely after going abroad.

Last time she went back to the country, she planned to bring two bags over, but in her hurry, she forgot to buy them. Seeing the hot pot seasoning suddenly, Jiang Nuan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
