Extra 70
He didn't stand on ceremony and even offered to help with the cooking.
Bai Lin, who has worked at a barbecue stall since childhood, has cooking skills that no one Qin Anning knows can match.
"Does that mean I'll be able to eat my cousin's cooking for lunch?"
His volunteering reminded Qin Anning of his culinary skills, and she couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.
Qiao Xing gave her a speechless look. "Why weren't you this excited when I was cooking?"
"No, I'm just as happy," Qin Anning quickly reassured her mother.
Qiao Xing shook her head helplessly. She had only said it casually, but her daughter treated her like a child, making her feel a little embarrassed.
"Alright, you guys get back to work."
She felt that she couldn't get along with these young people, so she might as well go play cards with Xiao Lin.
It's still early, not time to cook yet.
Only Qin Anning and Bai Lin remained in the living room. After a moment of looking at each other, Qin Anning spoke first, "How about we go buy groceries?"
Bai Lin nodded. "Okay."
"Let's go then." Qin Anning took out the keys from her pocket, intending to drive herself, but Bai Lin said he would drive.
Qin Anning didn't argue with him about it and got into the passenger seat herself.
Bai Lin, driving, asked casually, "Why did you suddenly decide to go on a blind date?"
Qin Anning paused for a moment, then smiled sheepishly, "I was just bored, didn't you go on any blind dates?"
"I've been a bit busy lately, so I haven't had time to meet you."
"You're so busy, yet you still come here?"
"On the way."
"……oh."
After he finished speaking, silence fell over the car.
Bai Lin drove silently all the way to the mall, and the two of them didn't say much.
The two bought a lot of groceries, and when they got back, Bai Lin cooked a large meal.
His cooking skills were still so good that Qin Anning ate two more bowls of rice than usual.
Even Qiao Xing couldn't help but exclaim, "Xiao Lin's cooking skills are so good, your future wife is so lucky."
Bai Lin smiled but didn't reply.
"Haven't you found a girl you like yet?" Qiao Xing asked again.
After asking that question, Qiao Xing suddenly had a strange feeling, wondering how she had become an annoying elder.
Is it really true that some kind of attribute awakens as people get older?
Even Qin Ce couldn't help but glance at him, "When did you become so gossipy?"
Qiao Xing retorted, "I was just asking casually, I didn't pressure you to get married."
Bai Lin's smile became somewhat awkward, but she still replied, "Not yet."
Qiao Xing opened her mouth, as if driven by some force, about to say something like, "You're not young anymore," or "You should think about it."
It took her a lot of effort to swallow the words back.
Seeing her looking distressed, Qin Ce asked for her, "When do you plan to get married?"
"..."
"..."
His words silenced the entire dinner table.
This left Bai Lin speechless.
How do I connect this?
Fortunately, Qin Ce didn't insist on an answer and immediately changed the subject, "Alright, let's eat."
But because of their words, Bai Lin was so frightened that he ran away after finishing his meal.
Qin Anning couldn't help but chuckle.
But the next moment, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Qin Ce said to her, "An Ning, come to the study later."
"ah?"
Qin Ce didn't say what he wanted to see her about, and went upstairs on his own.
She looked at Qiao Xing and asked softly, "What does Dad want with me?"
Qiao Xing looked equally bewildered. "I don't know. Why don't you go and find out?"
