Chapter 151
Mao Li Lan raised her hand.
"No need."
Ren Amamiya shook his head slightly.
"Mao Li, do not propose things you yourself are unwilling to do."
"If you were willing to keep an eye on Kudo, you wouldn't have had to move out of your home."
"Since you've already moved out, do not force yourself to go back."
Mao Li Lan paused slightly; she indeed had no intention of returning.
Her father had accepted money from Uncle Kudo to take care of Shinichi, so she hadn't felt right telling her father not to look after Shinichi.
She could only say that she herself was unwilling to take on the job of caring for Shinichi; otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to use an excuse to run away.
"However..."
Ren Amamiya shifted the direction of his words.
"Mao Li, is your father's cooking quite bad?"
"Eh? Yes, Dad can hardly make anything well."
"I only know that Dad's skill is just a hair better than Mom's."
"That won't do."
Ren Amamiya's expression grew serious.
"Mao Li, you can prepare some things at your mother's house and send them to your father."
"Regardless, you must make your father's life a little easier."
"When you offer condolences to your father, you can conveniently ask about his recent living conditions."
Mao Li Lan was slightly stunned, then she understood.
Although it was still a way of gathering information, she wouldn't need to move back.
As long as she used her father's inability to cook as an excuse, bringing back some condolence gifts for him seemed fine.
After showing concern for her father, asking about his recent situation as well seemed quite reasonable.
"Mm, I'll prepare some things tomorrow."
"I hope Dad can work seriously."
"And that Shinichi can cooperate with Dad to hide his identity properly."
Actually, she was truly quite worried about whether Dad could take care of himself.
Because since moving to Mom's place, she had deeply realized that Mom was really bad at taking care of herself.
She didn't cook her own three meals; they were all takeout orders.
Coffee, French fries, burgers, and pizza were the norm for Mom's life.
Mm, she was indeed startled by Mom's norm.
Now Mao Li Lan was also a bit worried; if she left for a while, she didn't know if Dad could get used to it.
Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Mao Li Lan felt a pair of scrutinizing eyes had been lingering on her the whole time.
She shifted her gaze; it was Ren.
She twisted her body a bit, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
"Ren, is there something on me?"
"No, I just feel that Mao Li, have you lost a bit of weight?"
