Chapter 1582


    The three of them happily walked back into their home. Mia hurriedly served the dishes onto the


    dining table. She looked at Levi with a look of anticipation. She was dying for him topliment her


    cooking sincerely. "Levi, wash your hands ande try my cooking," Mia said.


    "Okay, I''ll try it." Levi forked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. He tasted it, and his first


    thought was to spit it out. He made eye contact with his mother and kept it in. He smiled as he


    swallowed the piece of meat.


    The truth was that he wasn''t new to this dish. Normally, chefs would add ingredients to make the


    meat more tender. It would be delicious!


    On the other hand, looking at his mother''s stewed meat, she must have misjudged the intensity of


    the fire while preparing the dish. The meat was overcooked and hard to chew, as if it were rubber.


    "Levi, my stewed meat isn''t bad, right?" Mia asked joyfully as she saw Levi taking a huge bite. She


    figured that her cooking must have improved a lot.


    "Mom, I''ll try this dish instead." Guessing that Mia wouldn''t believe him even if heplimented her


    cooking, Levi changed the topic and quickly took a few bites of the other dishes.


    After tasting all the food, his conclusion was that his mother wasn''t good at cooking at all, nor did


    she improve at all. "Mom..."


    Seeing Levi struggling to swallow, Mia understood, and her face sunk. "My cooking is just that bad,


    isn''t it?" she asked.


    Although Mia’s culinary skills did not improve this time, Levi could tell that all the dishes had been


    prepared with his mother''s love for him. It was an unconditional love...


    If she didn''t love him enough, she wouldn''t have taken time off her busy schedule to cook for him.


    As he thought about it, all of a sudden, all the food served on the table became delicious. It tasted


    like the most scrumptious gourmet food. "Mom, how did your cooking improve so much in just a


    matter of months I haven''t seen you?" Levi eximed.


    Deep down, Mia knew that her cooking did not taste that great. But after receiving Levi''s


    compliment, she instantly bubbled up with joy. "Really?"


    Levi did not answer her with words, but with action. He devoured all the dishes she prepared and


    felt stuffed. He patted his tummy and added, "Mom, I want to eat more of your cooking when Ie


    home on my off days in future."


    Mia was in disbelief as she watched Levi gobbling up the food she had made. She got emotional as


    she listened to himplimenting her cooking. "Levi, do you even know what you'' re talking


    about?" She said as tears filled her eyes.


    In the past, Levi would always criticize his mother''s cooking as being tasteless. He refused to eat it


    even if someone were to hold a gun to his head. It was different now, he had experienced certain


    things and hade across the joys and sorrows in the real world. Suddenly, he came to


    understand some things.


    Living with one''s happy and healthy family was one of the best blessings in the world.


    Levi wanted to enjoy this kind of love when his parents were still alive, and his mother was still able


    to cook for him.


    He didn''t want to start missing his mother''s dishes only after Mia was gone. He didn’t want to start


    missing his dad''s strong arms that protected him from countless dangers only after Neil was no


    longer there.


    Leviughed, "Mrs. Brown, are you alright? Just because your sonplimented your cooking,


    you''re going to cry in front of us?"


    Mia red at him and replied, "You brat, tell me now, is there something wrong with you today?"


    Levi squeezed himself into the space between his parents and sat down. He put his arms around


    their shoulders and said, "Dad, Mom, I''m d to have you two as my parents in this life. I''m grateful


    for it. I wish to be your son for eternity!"


    Mia reached out her hand to touch Levi''s forehead. "Are you having a fever?"


    In the past, Levi used to say that his parents were just a free gift, always iming that they didn''t


    love him.


    Not only did he think his parents didn''t love him, he even thought they were bullying him. All of a


    sudden, he was acting so warm and gentle towards them. Mia found that she couldn''t ept Levi''s


    abrupt change of personality. "You brat, are you plotting something?"


    Levi showed an expression of displeasure and replied, "Mom, I am your son. How could you not


    trust me?"


    Mia said, "It''s not that I don''t trust you, it''s just that your behavior today is just too strange." "Mom, I


    don''t have a fever and I''m not scheming anything in my head. It''s just that I''ve grown up. Before


    this, I didn''t listen to you guys and I did whatever I wanted to. I didn''t consider how you two would


    worry for me. From now on, I will behave myself. I will protect myself well so you two won''t have to


    worry about me."


    Mia said with satisfaction, "Has my son really grown up?"


    Levi replied, "Yes, he has!"


    "But I don''t wish for you to grow up so quickly. How great it would be if you could remain a child


    forever. If so, you won''t have to leave your parents go out to face the world alone and endure all the


    suffering," Mia said emotionally.

    "Mom, people always say that if one can endure all hardship, they will then truly be respected and


    admired. Today, I''m able to do that, so I will surely be sessful in the future," Levi said without


    much concern.


    Mia understood what Levi was trying to say. "It''s just that I will still be worried about you..."


    "Mom, did you know that in the Red Eagle team, there are two female soldiers amongst so many


    other males? Thedies were born with a less powerful physique than us, but they still go through


    the same level of training we do. They''ve never imed to be tired or distressed. If they can do it, I


    should be able to do it too. I admire their spirit of never admitting defeat. I will learn from them," Levi


    said.


    Mia was tempted to gossip once she heard Levi bring up the two female soldiers. "I heard that you


    are not getting along with the two women in your troop. Howe you’ replimenting them all of


    a sudden?"


    "It’s true that I dislike that tomboy, but her attitude and spirit is still worthy of me learning from. I


    know how to separate my feelings from my duty," Levi replied.


    "By the way, let me ask you. Did you give our house''s phone number to those girlfriends of yours?"


    "Yes, what''s wrong with that?" Levi asked casually.


    Mia said, "What?! You brat, you''re still asking me what’s wrong? Let me tell you. I’ve been staying


    home for the past few days and I’ve had to pick up more than ten calls a day. It was all from those


    girlfriends of yours. It’s so noisy that it''s making me want to move out."
