Who is the ugly daughter-in-lawHe pulled the person into his arms with a smile: "I was wrong, our Yaoyao is the number one beauty fairy in the world."He flattered her with her WeChat nickname, very n...Lu Kuo takes a very detached approach to relationships, maybe all the Lu family members are forgetful. He forgets about it in a blink of an eye and drives to Zhuo Yu'an's house. Coincidentally, Zhuo Yu'an is cooking dinner in the kitchen, while Shu Tinglan is video chatting with the children alone in the living room. This time, he didn't use his phone, but directly cast it to the TV at home.
Lu Kuò also sat down on the sofa and greeted the two children. He was a flamboyant person, so enthusiastic that he almost wanted to jump into the camera. Shu Xiaohé in the camera subconsciously took a step back.
Zhuo Yu'an happened to come out and scolded, "Don't scare her."
Shu Xiaohua didn't remember Lu Kuò very well; they hadn't spent much time together before. Shu Xiaonian, however, had a good memory and, like a little adult, introduced her sister: "This is Uncle Lu, Dad's best friend."
Shu Xiaohua, in a milky voice, said, "Hello, Uncle Lu."
They are very cute and well-behaved, patiently chatting with their mother in front of the camera.
Lu Kuo looked at it with a little bit of longing. If he had such a child in the future, that wouldn't be bad either. But thinking about it, forget it. He doesn't even have a partner to have children with, and with him like this, there's a high probability that he would raise a mischievous child.
Thinking about it this way, for the sake of their genes and future offspring, it would be more suitable to find a woman who can educate children well.
Educate good children
Are you the teacher
He suddenly remembered what Gu Ruanruan had said: "Can I chase after you then"
He shivered and immediately dismissed the strange thought.
Shutinglan said, "You chat with the children, I'll go to the kitchen and see if I can help."
Zuo Yu'an had only prepared enough food for two people, but since Lu Kuo had suddenly arrived, he naturally needed to add more dishes and got busy again.
Shu Tinglan stood aside and volunteered, "May I cook a dish"
Zuo Yu'an smiled: "Don't go, just staying here with me is enough."
One is that I really don't need her help, and the other is that I don't trust her skills.
"If guests come, should I just do nothing Wouldn't that be rude"
Zhuo Yu'an pretended to be curious: "You still have this awareness"
Of course. How about I make the rest of the dishes, and you guide me
Seeing that she was sincere, he said: "Alright."
The two worked in the kitchen, he guiding her step-by-step. He told her whether to add salt or sugar first, how big of a fire to use and how many times to stir fry. He also helped her clean up, making the countertop spotless.
He was very conscious of maintaining his wife's image and wouldn't let anyone see that she was "lazy, uncultured, and useless." He even went to great lengths to hide it from his friend Lu Kuò. It was typical hypocrisy; he tried to convince Lan how much he cared, while Lu Kuò saw right through him.
The last dish was oil-baked prawns. Shu Tinglan had followed Zhu YUAN's instructions very seriously and finished cooking them. With great excitement, she picked out a large one, peeled the shell, and handed it to him:
"Taste this, will it taste good"
Zhuo Yu'an lowered his head and took the shrimp into his mouth. Because her fingers were covered in sauce, he was bad and took her finger with it too.
Shuting Lan... Lu Kuai is still outside....
As if summoned, Cao Cao appeared just then. He heard Lu Kuo deliberately coughing beside the restaurant.
"Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you. May I see this"
Shu Tinglan's face reddened,
Zhuo Yu'an held her hand and glanced at Lu Kuo, a hint of disdain in his eyes: "Out of the way."
Lu Kuo: "Then I'll go"
Although he said so, he unconsciously helped to serve the dishes. While eating, he praised Tinglan's cooking skills, saying that she had made great progress.
Shu Tinglan chuckled to herself. He ate everything Zhu YUAN made, but he didn't touch a bite of what she made.
"You sound like you've experienced it." Zhuo Yu'an scorned him for being a person who spoke differently to different beings.
"I ate a meal that Tinglan made with so much thoughtfulness, it's priceless, you know"
"Understood, I'll give you a chance to express your feelings later. These dishes are your responsibility." Zhuo Yu'an wasn't being polite at all; he wasn't going to let anyone feed him for free.
Lu Kuo: "I shouldn't have come."
Not only do I have to feed the dog, but I also have to wash its bowl. It's just not fair!
After finishing the meal, Lu Kuo resignedly rolled up his sleeves and began clearing the dishes. As he washed them in the kitchen, he couldn't help but feel a sense of irony: how did the pampered son of the influential Tingjing Finance Group end up doing such menial tasks
"Can't you just hire a maid With all that money, what are you doing You don't know how to enjoy life at all." She grumbled as she washed.
After washing up, Zhuo Yu'an and Ting Lan were huddled on the sofa watching TV news. Lu Kuo almost couldn't bear to look at them. He shouted, "I'm leaving."
Ting Lan looked up and said goodbye to him. Zhu Yu An didn't even raise his head, acting as if he hadn't heard a word. Neither of them even thought about seeing him off. It was really too much! He wanted to slam the door and leave, but then he thought, the more you want me to leave, the less I will. He acted provocatively, sitting next to Zhu Yu An and snuggling close to him.
"What are you looking at" said knowingly.
Zhuo Yu'an disliked being close to others in the first place, but Lu Kuo intentionally leaned against him. He had goosebumps all over and suddenly stood up, even disdainfully patting the arm he had been leaning on: "Get lost"
"Don't leave, anyway I'm alone at home early and nothing much to do." Shameless, it's me who has a hard time, you guys don't think about getting easy either.
Zuo Yu'an wanted to curse, but seeing him like this, truly a stray dog with nowhere to go, he felt a twinge of sympathy: "Fine, have a drink with me."
"That's better." The two went to another lounge, one after the other. Lu Kuo turned to Tinglan: "I'm sorry, I have to borrow your Zhuo Yu'an for a bit."
Shu Tinglan smiled and waved them away. Zhuo Yu'an only had Lu Kuo as a friend like this, and it was rare for Lu Kuo to come. Zhuo Yu'an was actually very happy inside. It was a rare time to relax, and she was happy to do so.
As soon as the two of them left, she sent Lin Zhixuan a WeChat message. During dinner just now, Lin Zhixuan had sent her several proposal videos to see if she liked them and if they could be used as inspiration later on.
"I think these are all very creative and touching, Shushu, do you have a favorite"
"There are a few good ones, but, a proposal should have its own unique touch. I'll think about it some more." Shu Tinglan was just speaking casually at the time. She had imagined proposing to Zhuo Yu'an herself, but Lin Zhiyao took her words to heart and started urging her every day. Shu Tinglan was both amused and exasperated.
Well, Lin Zhi's videos are all very over-the-top, not really suited to her personality. If she were to propose like that, Zhuo Yu'an would probably take her straight to a mental hospital.
The two were chatting happily on their phones. Through the partition, Zhuo Yu'an and Lu Kuo in the adjacent lounge could see her.
"Who is Tinglan chatting with She seems so happy! And she's being all secretive about it."
She would occasionally glance their way, even hiding her phone from them as if she were afraid of being caught. Lu Kuo deliberately tried to create tension between them.
Zhuo Yu'an just smiled without answering, his eyes full of indulgence. He knew she wasn't talking to Lin Zhifan; she must be chatting with Cheng Chen.
"Couldn't it be Yi Muyang"
"Drink up, your bar!"urther how he knew Song Jingye was on a business trip.As they were about to get in the car, several of their colleagues from the same batch came out one after another. Xu Haichen warmly greeted them:...
