Chapter 176 She is attracted to Li Beiting

Li Beiting stood up and followed, "I'll help too."

The two of them went into the kitchen together, one in front and one behind.

Aunt Wang cooked, Jiang Yao helped wash the vegetables, and then handed them to Li Beiting to cut.

When Li Beiting reached out to take it, his fingertips accidentally touched her little finger, and it was as if an electric current ran from the palm of her palm through her limbs, making her whole body numb.

Jiang Yao pulled his hand back in a panic, his ears feeling slightly hot.

Li Beiting curled up the corners of his lips unconsciously.

The atmosphere in the air is ambiguous and sweet.

Outside the kitchen, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang took in the entire scene, their expressions becoming increasingly solemn.

"Old man, what do you think will happen if the two of them are together?" asked Mrs. Jiang softly.

"no."

Although the broken engagement happened a long time ago, Li Beiting showed through his actions that he had done well enough, and their anger had mostly subsided.

But Mr. Jiang still shook his head: "I still don't agree with them being together."

"What if Yaoyao likes it?" Old Mrs. Jiang asked him somewhat dissatisfiedly, "Are you going to hinder your granddaughter's pursuit of happiness?"

"I'm doing this for her sake. Have you forgotten the most important reason?" Old Master Jiang reminded her.

Old Mrs. Jiang frowned, and she also remembered that incident. "I'll try it again at the dinner table later."

An hour later, everyone was seated at the dining table.

"Grandpa and grandma, these dishes are all made by Beiting. You can try his cooking skills."

Jiang Yao specially brought several of the dishes to the old couple, all of which were their favorite dishes.

The old couple were a little surprised. They tasted it separately and their eyes lit up at the same time.

"I didn't expect Xiaoting to be so skilled. Did you learn from your mother?"

Old Mrs. Jiang praised with satisfaction.

"No, I taught myself by looking at recipes. My mother doesn't really like to cook."

Li Beiting answered calmly.

"Come to think of it, when I met Lao Li not long ago, I heard him talking about your parents. How are they doing lately? Have they come back to check on your emotional issues?"

Mr. Jiang mentioned it casually.

Li Beiting was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "They are very busy all year round and won't take care of my business."

The old couple exchanged glances silently after hearing this, but didn't ask any more questions.

Jiang Yao felt something was strange.

But I didn’t think much about it for a moment.

After dinner, Li Beiting got up and left.

When Jiang Yao sent him to the door, the man looked at her and took the initiative to suggest: "Would you like to go out for a walk with me? Just as a way to digest the food."

Jiang Yao's heart moved slightly, and he secretly took a look inside the house. While no one was paying attention, he quickly changed his shoes, put on my coat, and went out.

The two of them walked out side by side, their shadows lengthened by the street lights, as if they were cuddling together.

"Is everything going well with Xingheng recently?"

Li Beiting asked her about her work.

"It went smoothly and everyone was very friendly. I felt every day was fulfilling and meaningful."

Jiang Yao's eyes were bright and lively. He turned to ask Li Beiting, "How about you? Is everything going well?"

Li Beiting shook his head, his expression somewhat gloomy: "It's not going well."

"What happened?" Jiang Yao's heart tightened, and he asked worriedly, "Did you run into any trouble? Why didn't you tell me? Every time I got into trouble before, you always came forward to help me. Maybe I can help you too!"

She blurted out the words all at once, and then felt a little annoyed after she finished speaking.

She was so proactive that it seemed like she cared a lot about Li Beiting.

Li Beiting raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's not a big deal, it's just..."

"Um?"

Jiang Yao looked up at him curiously, and met a pair of eyes deeper than the vast starry sky. He was stunned for a moment.

Li Beiting looked into her starry eyes, as if expressing his love.

"It's just that without you, there are fewer happy moments at work. I want to share everything with you."

Previously at the SA base, they would meet each other almost every day at work.

Jiang Yao's cheeks felt hot.

I never thought he would say such cheesy words. My heart beat rapidly and I was a little overwhelmed. After a while, I murmured, "You...you can send me a message."

"Don't you feel disturbed?" Li Beiting seemed a little worried.

"No!" Jiang Yao touched his hot face indifferently and said reservedly: "It depends on my mood. I'll come back when I'm free."

The smile in Li Beiting's eyes deepened, and his magnetic and seductive voice exploded in his ears: "Okay, I will look forward to your reply every day."

Jiang Yao's heart was pounding so loudly that he was afraid someone would hear it.

At this moment, she seemed unable to deceive herself anymore.

She was indeed attracted to Li Beiting.

When Jiang Yao returned home, she still had a sweet smile on her face, but she saw Old Mrs. Jiang sitting on the sofa in the living room with a somewhat sad look on her face.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Yao hurried over, took her arm and said with concern.

"Yaoyao, tell me the truth, do you like Li Beiting?"

Old Mrs. Jiang went straight to the point.

"I……"

Jiang Yao's heart trembled, but when he met the old man's concerned gaze, he really couldn't tell a lie.

"Grandma, I might have some feelings for him."

The low voice sounded like a mosquito, with an unconcealable shyness.

Old Mrs. Jiang sighed deeply, and after a moment, she said, "Yaoyao, I actually want to tell you that you should be careful in your choice. Li Beiting is indeed a good person, but his mother is a very strong and difficult woman. I'm afraid that if you are with him, there will be conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."

Jiang Yao didn't expect it to be such a realistic question, she was a little surprised.

Before, she rarely heard Li Beiting mention his parents.

All I know is that he has a grandfather who loves him very much, and I have seen him before at my grandfather's birthday party.

"Grandma certainly wants you to be happy, but I hope you can think it over carefully." Old Mrs. Jiang held her hand with a kind face.

Jiang Yao's heart sank slightly. He couldn't imagine how difficult it would be to deal with a woman who even his grandmother found strong.

She returned to her room and thought for a long time.

After Lu Xuan's mother's last experience, she already understood that love can be a matter between two people, but when it comes to marriage, it is a matter of two families.

She doesn't want to go through the same family affairs again. Compared to love, she yearns for freedom and a vast world.

Right now, it’s more important to focus on your career.

As for love, she doesn't force it and lets everything take its course.

Jiang Yao suppressed his excitement and walked back to the table to sit down.

The next step is to put the new technology into production as quickly as possible and then ensure stable operation.

I also need to start looking for new research directions and contribute to my country's aerospace industry.

Jiang Yao flipped through the documents at hand with great interest all night long, and only went back to bed in the early morning.

She picked up her phone and looked at it.

Several messages popped up.

Jiang Yao clicked on it and took a look. Seeing that it was sent by Li Beiting, her heart moved slightly, but after hesitating for a long time, she turned off the screen and closed her eyes.
