When Bai Qianmo was pulled into the living room, Grandpa Gu happened to be coming downstairs.

Upon seeing Bai Qianmo, the usually stern old man forced a smile at her.

Although it was stiff, it was enough to show how welcome he was.

"Your grandfather Gu has been like this since he was young. He doesn't smile much and always has an icy face like someone owes him money. A-Ye is just like him. The two of them are like monks competing in meditation, it's definitely a duel between masters."

"Qianmo, have some fruit. Dinner is being prepared. I'll go tell the kitchen to make a white fungus and red date soup."

"No need to trouble Grandma Gu."

"No, you've come all this way, so I have to make sure you have something to eat. Luckily, I made some black chicken soup, so I'll give it to you to take home later."

Bai Qianmo sighed silently in her heart.

Madam Gu went into the kitchen, and Old Master Gu and Gu Jueye sat down.

"Your Grandma Gu is a worrier. If you don't let her worry, she'll feel uncomfortable. Just let her be."

Bai Qianmo stood up: "I'll go to the kitchen and see if there's anything I can help with."

Gu Jueye reached out and took her hand: "The chefs are busy, sit down and rest for a while."

Bai Qianmo felt it wasn't right for her to just sit there and wait to eat, so she smiled and said, "Then I'll go see what delicious food the chef is making."

Gu Jueye saw through the girl's thoughts at a glance and nodded with a smile.

"Go."

Bai Qianmo ran happily to the kitchen.

Gu Jueye bent down and picked through the fruit on the coffee table, finally choosing an orange from among the fruits.

He slowly peeled the orange with his hands, which had distinct knuckles.

"Your mother came by today."

"kindness!"

"Don't you want to know what your mother said?"

"It's my marriage again, isn't it?" This is the only thing Ms. Qin is currently worried about.

"Yes, I've taken a liking to a girl from a certain family. I'd like to bring her over to meet your grandmother and me during the family banquet, mainly so that you can get to know her."

"That's great! You two should give us your opinions, and we can introduce them to my younger relatives sometime in the future."

Old Master Gu gave a light snort, his eyes gleaming with shrewdness and understanding.

“Go and see your nephews. Except for Gu Hongxun, they are all almost married and settled down. Even Gu Jingyu, who used to be so carefree, has reportedly tamed himself for a girl recently.”

After taking a sip of tea, Old Master Gu continued, "I don't necessarily agree with your mother's idea, but when do you and Qianmo plan to settle down? Your grandmother is eagerly awaiting her great-grandson, and we, the old couple, are also hoping to meet the Gu family's great-grandson before we die."

Gu Jueye peeled the orange segments, picked up a segment, and popped it into his mouth.

The sweet and sour taste lingers on the lips and teeth.

"You two are in good health, so don't worry. You and your mother will definitely be able to meet your great-grandson."

The family doctor comes every month to give the elderly couple regular check-ups, and both of them are in relatively good health.

However, it's time to take the wishes of the two elderly people to heart.

His relationship with Qianmo has basically stabilized. It will be a good time to wait until Qianmo's career stabilizes next year.

"Stop dangling empty promises at our fingertips. I'll only believe your nonsense when I'm holding my great-grandson in my arms."

"By the way, there were reports online today that Qianmo is in a relationship mess. Could it be that you caused this trouble?"

Gu Jueye looked towards the kitchen and, through the glass window, could see the little girl and the old lady chatting animatedly, their faces beaming with curiosity and exploration.

She would occasionally pick up the plate and ask the old lady questions, as if she were learning what dishes to make.

Thinking about the food the little girl cooked, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach.

Her cooking was truly awful, but she had a passion for learning to cook. When they ate at home, he always took the initiative to cook, just in case the girl might impulsively decide to make him a loving breakfast one day.

Gu Jueye pinched the bridge of his nose, his voice indifferent: "If I had this kind of intention, would I have needed you to force me into marriage for so many years?"

Grandpa Gu nodded, "That makes sense."

If this kid had the "talent" to have his cake and eat it too, he wouldn't be forced into marriage by his whole family.

Whenever a member of the Gu family gets married, his family members will bring him up as a topic of conversation.

"We don't have that kind of attitude in our family."

"Dinner is ready, wash your hands and come eat," Grandma Gu called out as she came out.

Bai Qianmo was watching the chef cook a green pepper and egg dish in the kitchen.

The reason I want to learn this dish is... because it's simple enough.

"Miss Bai, look, the oil is already hot. Let's pour the pre-mixed ingredients into the pan, swirl the pan around, and fry over low heat..."

Bai Qianmo was a little nervous, a nervousness she had never felt before.

Her dedication to cooking might stem from a stubbornness born of repeated failures? In any case, she loves cooking.

The process of making this green pepper and omelet was very simple, as explained by the chef.

Just follow the chef's instructions.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Qianmo poured the beaten egg mixture, green peppers, and scallions into the pot.

The chef stood to the side, nodding repeatedly: "Good technique... rotate the pan and fry the egg mixture into a pancake..." Before he could finish speaking, the chef noticed that Bai Qianmo was adding seasonings.

"Miss Bai... what are you putting in?"

"Salt."

The chef said, "...the salt was already added when you were mixing the eggs, and what you added was sugar..."

Bai Qianmo blinked. Candy?

The chef had a look of utter despair on his face.
