She definitely could not let that person ruin such a good dayâ¦
âAlright, letâs go back to the family residence! There are still many things to do!â
Jian Dan schooled her emotions and returned to the car.
When she returned to the family residence, she saw that Chu Liyuan had already returned to the family residence and was already cooking up a storm in the kitchenâ¦
Seeing that it was already n a.m., they joined the culinary team.
It was a very blissful thing for the family to be busy for the New Yearâs Eve dinner.
Being with her family was the happiest thing for Jian Dan!
In the past, it was Granny who was in charge of doing the cooking. This year, Granny was not around, so Chu Liyuan took over. However, this was just a small matter for Chu Liyuan.
Chu Liyuan was currently cooking Jian Danâs favorite fish. Jian Dan was almost drooling from watching from the back. As soon as it was out of the pan, Jian Dan couldnât help but pop a piece into her mouth. But⦠âHiss!â The fish that she had just popped into her mouth fell to the floor.
Chu Liyuan threw the chopsticks in his hand onto the stove and propped up her chin with one hand. His brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes brimmed with worry. âWhere did you scald yourself?â
âItâs just a light touch. Itâs nothing serious!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jian Dan explained.
However, Chu Liyuan was still worried. After checking carefully and confirming that she was fine, he said, âDonât you know that you canât eat food straight out of the pan? Why were you so anxious? Itâs a miracle you didnât scald your tongue!â
Chu Liyuan rebuked with a solemn expression.
âIf I scalded my tongue, it would break your heart.â
Jian Dan wheedled as she leaned closer to Chu Liyuan.
âBreak my heart? It wonât at all. How many times have I told you that you have to be careful in everything you do? Did you listen? I should let you learn your lesson!â
Hmph⦠Uncle, your expression just now had already betrayed you, okay? Why are you still pretending? Forget it, seeing that youâre so worried about me, 1 wonât expose you.
Although Chu Liyuan said that, butâ¦
âOpen up!â
Chu Liyuan picked up a piece of fried fish with his chopsticksâblew on itâand brought it to Jian Danâs mouth.
A smile bloomed on Jian Danâs face as she opened her mouth and ate the fish. âMmm! Yummy!â Jian Dan gave Chu Liyuan a thumbs up.
âOh, you!â Chu Liyuan pinched her nose lightly.
âAre you two frying fish? Or are you whispering sweet nothings? Pink bubbles are floating in the kitchen instead of oily smoke?â
She turned around and saw that Jihao and Qianqian had appeared at the kitchen door.
âWhen did you come?â Jian Dan smiled and went up to them.
âWe just arrived and did not even have time to eat before we had to put up with your PDA!â
âJihao, why do you tease Uncle and me the moment you arrive?!â
âIt canât be helped. In the past, it was always Chu Liyuan who teased me. Now that I finally have a chance to exact revenge, how can I let it go?â Jihao raised his eyebrows at Chu Liyuan.
âAs you wish.â
Chu Liyuan said before Jian Dan could say something.
âWeâre here for a free meal!â Qianqian walked up to Jian Dan. âThat brat Xiaoyang enlisted without a word. Thereâs only the two of us left, so we came to your place for a free meal on New Yearâs Eve.â
âWelcome, welcome. The more people there are for the New Yearâs Eve dinner, the livelier it will be!â
Jian Dan said happily as she held Qianqianâs hand.
âWhat are you frying?â Jihao went to the stove and was about to reach out when Chu Liyuan hit him with his chopsticks.
âGo wash your hands!â
âFine, so be it! Why did you have to hit me so hard?â
Jihao complained as he blew on his fingers.
âGo!â
With just one word, Jihao shut up and obediently went to wash his hands.
âHey, this is your first Lunar New Year as Mrs. Chu. How does it feel?â Qianqian pulled Jian Dan and asked softly.
âI feel very blissful now. Unbelievably so..â
