Chapter 242: Another Low Blow

Translator: Lonelytree

After Gong Tianhao took a shower at home and changed into a new set of clothes, he came to the Xiao Family home and saw his grandfather and his love rival chatting happily.

Gong Tianhao raised his eyebrows and was a little puzzled. ‘What did I miss this time?’

“Tianhao, you’re here.” When Xiao Zhengyang saw Gong Tianhao, he smiled and said, “I was about to go over to get you.”

Gong Tianhao said, “I went home to take a shower.”

“Hao ‘Er, come here!” Old Master Gong waved his hand and called Gong Tianhao over.

“Grandfather!” Gong Tianhao was puzzled. His grandfather was clearly happy. He pointed at Yan Siming and said, “Xiao Yan is grandfather’s former subordinate’s grandson. His grandfather is Old Master Zheng Yan. You two should get to know each other.”

Old Master Gong felt Yan Siming and Gong Tianhao were of similar age, so they should be friends.

Gong Tianhao and Yan Siming looked at each other, and then their gazes clashed.

Gong Tianhao didn’t expect Yan Siming to be connected to his grandfather.

Yan Siming smiled and said, “Sir, actually, I already know Mr. Gong.”

Old Man Gong was a little surprised. “Oh, when did you two meet?”

“Just now!” Yan Siming said, “Lingyu and I are good friends. I came to Taoyuan Village to catch up with her. I didn’t expect Mr. Gong to be there too.”

Old Master Gong immediately caught onto a key point and asked, “Xiao Yan, are you good friends with Lingyu?”

‘He is not my little brat’s love rival, is he?’

Yan Siming said, “Yes. Lingyu used to work in City Z, and something happened. We became good friends.”

“Oh, I see.” Old Master Gong nodded. Then he asked, “Xiao Yan, you’re not that young already. Are you married?”

Yan Siming, “...”

Then, he noticed Father Xiao’s strange gaze and Gong Tianhao’s faint mockery.

Yan Siming coughed awkwardly and said, “Old Master, I used to like to play and never thought about settling down, so I don’t have a girlfriend yet.” That was a tactful way to say he had a long romantic history.

Old Master Gong persuaded, “You’re not young anymore. You should stop your playful ways and find a wife. Having a wife will stabilize your life.”

Hearing this, Yan Siming’s eyes lit up, and he said, “Sir, I do intend to get married. However, I don’t have a partner right now, and I can’t just randomly pick a woman to get married to.”

“Haha, that’s true.” Old Master Gong nodded and said, “How about this? Xiao Yan, I introduce you to a few girls. Don’t worry. They’re all from good families.”

“Ah?” Yan Siming was instantly dumbfounded. How did they get to this point?

Yan Siming reacted and quickly refused. He said, “Thank you, Sir. But I already have a girl in my heart. I’m planning to pursue her.”

Hearing this, Old Master Gong was also very happy. He asked, “Oh, what kind of girl is she that you’d fall in love with her?” Yan Siming had good looks and a great family background, so the girl had to be very impressive to capture his heart.

Before Yan Siming could say anything, Gong Tianhao cut in, “Grandfather, for someone like Mr. Yan, he already has a lot of girls lining up to be his potential wife. Besides...”

He glanced at Yan Siming. Yan Siming noticed Gong Tianhao’s gaze and immediately had a bad feeling.

Gong Tianhao continued, “Grandfather, you might not know this, but Mr. Yan’s girlfriends and lovers can already circle City Z three times!”

Yan Siming almost knelt down. He swore he couldn’t stand Gong Tianhao. He had ruined his image so many times already. And this time, it was in front of his idol!

Gong Tianhao did not directly point out that Yan Siming was a womanizer, but it was heavily implied.

Old Master Gong smiled, “Oh, so Xiao Yan is so popular with women. Then, I shouldn’t have worried too much about your marriage.”

Yan Siming smiled embarrassedly and said, “Sir, I...”

Elder Gong stopped him and said with a resolute smile, “Haha, there’s no need to explain. I understand. It’s natural for young people to like to play. But Xiao Yan...” He added in persuasion, “You can’t be a player forever. It’s time to settle down before things go overboard.”

Yan Siming accepted the advice very sincerely, “Yes, Elder, I’ll remember it.”

Gong Tianhao, who had once again tarnished Yan Siming’s image, was in a good mood. He didn’t care that Yan Siming’s grandfather knew his grandfather. What he knew was that this man had ill intentions towards his wife. He had to block him!

The few of them sat in the room for a while before they could smell the alluring fragrance coming from the kitchen.

Yan Siming had tried the popular vegetarian dishes at the Gu Family Hotel. He was still hung up over them. However, the fragrance from the Xiao Family kitchen was even more alluring than the ones at the Gu Family Hotel. Yan Siming swallowed his saliva and asked curiously, “Uncle, what is Auntie cooking? Why does it smell so good?”

Xiao Zhengyang replied, “It’s just some ordinary home-cooked dishes.”

At this moment, Old Master Gong said with a smile, “Xiao Yan, you don’t know this, but Auntie Xiao’s culinary skills are really something. Even the chefs of the five-star hotel can’t compare to her. In addition, the Xiao Family grows their own vegetables, so the taste is very pure. They make superb food. You should eat more later.”

He was trying to warn Yan Siming of the upcoming food war.

Yan Siming nodded and said, “Yes, Sir. I can’t wait to have a taste of Auntie Xiao’s cooking.”

At this moment, Xiao Zhengyang thought of something and suddenly asked, “Siming, it’s almost time for lunch. Call your sister, Miss Yan, and tell her to come back for lunch. She should join us.”

Earlier, Xiao Xiaohui brought Yan Ruyu to the strawberry field. Xiaohui found them and told them that the pretty uncle from last time had come to their house.

Then, Xiao Xiaohui introduced the pretty sister next to him as the pretty uncle’s sister.

Father Xiao and Mother Xiao hurried back to greet Yan Siming. Before they left, they invited Yan Ruyu to come for lunch. They also reminded Xiao Xiaohui to bring the pretty sister back for lunch.

It was almost lunchtime, but they hadn’t seen the two yet. Xiao Xiaohui did not have a cell phone. Yan Ruyu probably had a cell phone, but they did not have her number. So they asked Yan Siming to call her.

Yan Siming had just taken out his phone and was about to call his cousin when Xiao Xiaohui and Yan Ruyu appeared at the door.

Xiao Xiaohui called out as soon as he entered the courtyard, “Second uncle, second aunt, I’m back with pretty sister.”

When Yan Ruyu entered the courtyard, she smelled the unique fragrance. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she said in surprise, “It smells so good.”

Xiao Xiaohui immediately puffed out his small chest and said proudly, “Pretty sister, my second aunt’s cooking is the best in the world, so of course, it smells good.”

He did not know how big the world was, but he knew that his second aunt’s cooking was the best.

Miss Yan, who had flown all over the world, “...”

She did not refute Xiao Xiaohui. She didn’t say anything to agree with him either.

Although, she had to admit that the food did smell delicious. Miss Yan sighed. “It smells so good.”

Xiao Xiaohui pulled Yan Ruyu’s hand and motioned her to lower her head.

Yan Ruyu obliged with curiosity.

Then, Xiao Xiaohui whispered into her ear, “Pretty sister, during the meal, you have to go for the vegetables first. Snatch them if you can. Otherwise, you’ll miss out.”

“Ah?” Yan Ruyu was a little dumbfounded. She didn’t think it’d be polite to do something like that since she was a guest.

Xiao Xiaohui saw Yan Ruyu’s hesitation. “Pretty sister, listen to me. You won’t regret it.”

Yan Ruyu nodded blankly and said, “Alright!”
