Ellinor awkwardly licked her lips, rubbing her stomach.
There was a twinkle in his eyes, "Are you hungry?"
Ellinor nodded, "I am!"
He quietly asked her, "What do you want to eat?"
She looked up at him, and a sudden idea popped into her mind, "I want you to cook for me!"
Theo frowned. She was clearly trying to give him a hard time.
Since when did he know how to cook?
However, this was the first request from his precious girl, whom he had managed to win back. He had to indulge her.
"Alright, wait a sec; I'll try to cook something for you."
Ellinor comfortably stretched her arms, "I won't wait; I want to watch you cook!"
He squinted his eyes. Had she perked up again?
He bent down to take her hand and lifted her into his arms. He lightly patted her butt, "Seems like you're not tired enough; you need to burn more energy."
Upon hearing these words, Ellinor was scared and jumped off him, "No!"
She couldn't go on like this; she was already too tired to move!
He chuckled after seeing her scared and wanting to escape. He held her tightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't tire you out anymore! Didn't you want me to cook? I'm going now; you just watch!"
Only then did Ellinor heave a sigh of relief. She nodded her head and obediently leaned on his broad shoulder, letting him carry her around, not wanting to exert any effort.
