Avenger's coming back

Chapter 160 Exchange

It was already in the evening when he returned to the Gu family's house. Eric directly went back to the room he used to live in, because before he came back, he had called Lily and told him that she was here.

As he pushed the door, he saw that Lily was sitting on the couch alone and didn't see Angela. He couldn't help asking, "Where's mom?"

"Hush!" Lily gave a hush gesture and whispered, "Auntie has just fallen asleep. Let her sleep a little longer."

"Yes." Eric breathed a sigh of relief. He went to Lily, sat down next to her and held her in his arms. His tone was full of dependence. "Fortunately, you are here."

Lily embraced him back and rubbed her head on his chest. "I never knew that you would have such experience. If I had known it earlier, I could have helped you avoid it."

He smiled, "You're not God. How can you predict what I'll encounter?"

Lily said nothing, but held his waist more tightly to encourage him. In the previous life, she knew very little about him. She only knew that there was such a person, and nothing else.

But the two of them have been entangled in this life. She didn't expect her encounter to be very similar to his. His father has a mistress, and the third brought his son into the room. Such a thing is really the so-called commonplace of the so-called wealthy family!

"Girl..." His voice was full of deep attachment. Eric looked down at the woman in his arms, "I can't live without you now. What should I do?"

Lily felt warm in her heart. She raised her head to look at him and said, "I can't live without you now. What do you think I should do?"

Eric smiled with satisfaction. He lowered his head to kiss her forehead and said, "Then we will be together forever."

"Okay." Lily replied gently.

After a while, Lily released Eric and broke free from his arms. "Prepare some light food for aunt. She hasn't eaten well these two days."

She told her the whole story when she was with Angela.

"Okay." Eric took a deep look at her and held her hand, "I'll go to the kitchen over there. You haven't had dinner either, right?"

"Yes." Lily nodded.

"I should have thought of this." Said Eric in a self condemned tone.

"It's okay. I'm not hungry, either." She comforted, "I'm worrying that when your mother wakes up, she might want to eat something."

Seeing her consideration, Eric didn't know how to express his mood. He could only kiss her and quickly lowered his head to kiss her lips. "I'll be back soon."

Lily blushed and nodded. Eric was getting bolder now. No matter whether the elders were around or not, he would kiss her from time to time. Although it was just a brief kiss, it would make people feel shy!

However… She seemed to like him a lot

Thinking of this, Lily couldn't help laughing. If she and Eric hadn't encountered these messy things, their life should have been very warm.

Before long, Eric went back. He didn't bring back any cooked food, but ingredients…

The ingredients included cucumber, tomato, beef, vegetables, rice and other ingredients.

Looking at the stuff, Lily did not know whether she should laugh or cry. "Do we need to do it ourselves?" Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Eric's face. "Yes, the housekeeper who made the meal has gone back, and there's nothing to eat in the kitchen, so I have to bring these here."

"You have a kitchen?" As she spoke, she looked around subconsciously.

"Yes, but it's quite rarely use." Eric replied, and then walked towards the kitchen with all the ingredients.

Lily followed him. In her impression, he didn't know how to cook, but washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen very clean.

Perhaps because only Eric lived here, the kitchen was too small for two people to work in. It would be very crowded with one more person.

Since the sparrow was small and dirty, all kinds of kitchenware were available here, and they were all new. It seemed that Eric had never cooked here before.

After observing the whole kitchen, Lily started to wash the rice. She used one third of the rice to cook porridge, and the rest to be steamed into rice. After that, she began to wash vegetables.

Seeing that she did it so skillfully, all sorts of feelings welled up in Eric's heart. He walked to Lily and embraced her from behind, "How could you know everything?"

Hearing this, Lily looked back at him and said, "You know I can cook."

Eric kissed her on the earlobe and said, "Yes, the happiest thing in my life is to be with you."

Feeling her cheeks burning, Lily stopped what she was doing for a moment, and then said apologetically, "Hey, don't stand in my way, or I haven't cooked yet when Auntie wake up."

When he saw her flushed ears, he knew that she was shy and stopped pestering her. He rubbed his hands on her waist for a while, and then intentionally sighed, "What a pity. I can only touch you through clothes."

"Eric!" Lily suddenly turned her head and glared at him. Her face turned red.

"I want to check if mom is awake." Eric took the opportunity to slip away. Before he left, he said, "You must cook these dishes. I haven't had dinner either."

Looking at Eric walking out of the kitchen, Lily did not know whether she should laugh or cry. Eric was really… He had become more and more out of line. Unexpectedly, he dared to say such words. It was true that he couldn't stay with Ellison for too long.

Eric was about to go to the bedroom to see Angela, but when he walked out of the kitchen, he saw her sitting on the sofa with a tired face. She didn't look in a good mood.

"Mom." He walked to her and sat down beside her. "Are you hungry? Lily is cooking. She'll be done soon."

"I'm not hungry." Angela shook her head and held Eric's hand. She looked at him with a touch of relief in her eyes and said, "Lily is really a good girl. I hope you can cherish her and don't learn from your father."

"I know, mom." Eric replied and held her hand.

"I saw it just now." She then looked towards the kitchen and said, "She is even younger than you. But she is so skilled and considerate when she is doing housework. It is rare in this society nowadays."

"Yes." Eric replied softly.

"I'm relieved to have her take care of you." She looked back at Eric, "Tell me, who is your brother you met today?"

Hearing this, Eric unconsciously raised his eyebrows and looked at his mother with surprise. He didn't expect her to ask this question.

Seeing this, Angela continued, "Today I heard the words you whispered in Lily's ear. You never mentioned brother before. I just asked you if you don't want to tell me is ok."

Angela was afraid that he might misunderstand that it was Lily who had told her about this. If so, the conflict between them might be caused.

Of course Eric didn't know what she thought. He frowned, hesitated for a while and said, "Mom, if I tell you, you promise not to be angry."

She frowned and held Eric's hand more tightly, as if she had a guess in her mind.

Noticing her difference, Eric sighed slightly. He knew that smart mother might have guessed it.

"Mom, let's stop talking about it. We need to have a good rest after lunch. We still have a lot of things to deal with tomorrow."

"Go ahead," Angela had been back to normal. "I have been running away from reality for so many years. I have to face up to it. I only blame myself for being too willful that year. You can see the consequences of my willfulness."

A bitter smile emerged on her face as she said, "This is just a result."

Eric licked his lips, and held Angela's hand tightly. "I met the Noble today. We talked things about Grandpa..."

He observed her as he said carefully in case she would react something radical.

"Yes..." However, it was not as serious as he thought. Angela said calmly, "Noble is twenty six or seven years old this year. We haven't seen each other for many years. When I left at that time, he was only seven or eight years old."

Seeing her nagging face, Eric was relieved. He said, "Yes, brother is 27 years old now. He was forced to marry every day."

"How time flies! In the twinkling of eyes, he has reached the age to get married." And then she asked, "Where is Sherry? Have you seen her?"

When he heard the name, Eric smiled in an almost invisible way. It turned out that his mother had been paying attention to the Sun family secretly. Otherwise, why did she ask about Sherry? She was even younger than him, and had not been born when his mother left.

"I saw her a few days ago. Now I don't know where she is,"

"Yes." Angela smiled and looked at Eric, "Tell me more about them."

"Well, if you want to know, I'll tell you slowly." Eric smiled and continued, "Let's talk about her first."

"Okay." Angela nodded.

"Sherry has a boy character who likes playing computer games and has been determined to be the strongest hacker in the country. She is developing in this field and helped Lily once..."

As soon as the box was opened, Eric could not help but tell all things about Sherry, including some things about Lily.

Listening to his words quietly, Angela's eyes looking at Eric began to change, and she couldn't help but her eyes turned red. She never knew that her son actually had a relationship with the Sun family.

She had seldom mentioned the Sun family in front of him, and she had never taken him back. But he was so close to the people there. What did it mean?
