Qin Ran and Yu Jiuhua chatted for a long time, a full hour.
Yu Qianxia waited in the room for a long time but Qin Ran didn't come back, so she waited (eavesdropped) outside the study.
However, she did not hear the specific content of their conversation, only her father's hearty laughter.
It doesn’t matter what we talk about, as long as we have fun chatting.
Yu Qianxia's eyes were like a crescent moon and she was in a very good mood!
Zhou Zhen, who wanted to call them to dinner, didn't call them and went into the study instead.
"I haven't heard you laugh so happily in a long time. It seems that you like Qin Ran very much." Zhou Zhen said with a smile.
The smile on Yu Jiuhua's face faded, "Is there?"
"I heard you laughing on the stairs, what do you think?"
"That guy is not bad, he has good taste."
"Shouldn't Xiaoxia have good taste?" Zhou Zhen said with a wink.
"Nonsense again! He already has a girlfriend, how could my daughter be someone else's mistress?"
Zhou Zhen complained, "So you look down on me so much."
"No." Yu Jiuhua quickly stood up and hugged Zhou Zhen, explaining, "That's not what I meant."
"You are."
"Hey, I was wrong. I apologize."
"Did you see how happy Xiao Xia was smiling just now?"
"No."
"You're just jealous of him."
"Why would I be jealous? Xiao Xia loves me the most."
"Really? Then guess who she was waiting for at the door, you or someone else, and who was she worried about?"
Yu Jiuhua's face darkened and he lightly patted Zhou Zhen's perky buttocks.
"Which side are you on?"
"Of course I'm on your side."
Zhou Zhen sighed softly, "You've always treated Xiao Xia like a child. Even when she went abroad, she was meticulously taken care of. How could she possibly be independent?"
"She doesn't need independence, so can't I support her?"
"You and I will eventually grow old. Don't you need to find someone reliable for Xiao Xia?"
Yu Jiuhua was slightly dissatisfied, "Do you like this guy so much?"
"Whether you admit it or not, he is indeed the most suitable person for Xiao Xia that I have ever met."
"It's impossible anyway, unless he's single and only treats Xiao Xia well for the rest of his life."
"Forget it. If it doesn't work out, then it doesn't work out. I don't think Qin Ran has any interest in Xiao Xia in that way."
Yu Jiuhua was stunned.
"What do you mean? He still doesn't like my daughter? This is outrageous!"
"He treats Xiao Xia as his sister, isn't that good?"
"My daughter is beautiful and kind, who can compare to her? How could he not like her?! He must be pretending!"
"You're anxious again." Zhou Zhen couldn't help laughing, "Isn't this exactly what you want? If Xiao Xia is not interested, you don't have to worry."
Yu Jiuhua paused.
Having said that, he still felt uncomfortable.
It was one thing for him not to allow it, but it was another for Kieran not to like it.
It makes him seem like he is being sentimental.
Yu Jiuhua was very depressed. He couldn't argue with Zhou Zhen, so he had to resort to "action" to reason.
Originally, he was worried about Qin Ran running into his daughter's boudoir.
But now he hoped that the two of them could stay a little longer.
I have to say that humans are strange animals, always contradicting themselves.
......
Yu Jiuhua nominally invited Qin Ran to dinner tonight, and the dishes were very sumptuous!
The dishes are mainly Shandong cuisine, including first-class tofu, scallion-fried sea cucumber, braised prawns, first-class pot, braised abalone in its shell, etc. It is no exaggeration to say that they are delicacies from land and sea.
Qin Ran praised repeatedly!
This attracted the attention of even the chef, Lao He, to come out.
"Master He, your fried double crispy is so delicious! Your control of the heat is impeccable! One second less and it won't be cooked through, and one second more and it won't be crispy."
Lao He's face was full of smiles. "Oh, I met an expert. This dish used to measure the skill of the cook. You can't do it without a second knife."
"Great!" Qin Ran gave a thumbs up.
Qin Ran was not exaggerating. Judging from his professional-level cooking skills, Lao He's cooking skills were also top-notch.
It is very likely that he is a famous chef hired by Yu Jiuhua at a high salary.
It was rare for Lao He to meet a "close friend", so he asked with a smile, "How about other things?"
"They're all excellent! The sea cucumber is fresh, tender, and smooth, and the scallions are fragrant. The tofu has a crispy skin and is tender inside. The sauce is salty, slightly spicy, and has a sweet aftertaste. It's really delicious!"
"Expert!" Lao He looked at Yu Jiuhua, "Master, you have invited an expert back."
"Not at all." Qin Ran said modestly, "Master He is the real expert."
Yu Jiuhua said with a smile, "I specially invited Lao He, who studied under Master Cui."
Qin Ran asked in surprise, "Master Cui, the master of Shandong cuisine?"
Old He waved his hands repeatedly, "I haven't even learned half of Master Cui's skills, and Master Cui didn't accept me as his disciple. I just asked Master Cui for advice."
"Master He, you are too modest. Your cooking is the best I have ever tasted!"
Lao He happily returned to the kitchen and cooked two more dishes.
Yu Jiuhua smiled and said, "Xiao Qin also likes to cook?"
“I like it, but I don’t do much.”
"Master, I haven't tasted the food you cook yet." Yu Qianxia suddenly said.
Yu Jiuhua glared and said, "How can we let guests cook?"
This has never been the case since ancient times.
Yu Qianxia, realizing she had made a mistake, stuck out her tongue.
In the past, Qin Ran would bring her breakfast, which was always delicious.
But she had never eaten Qin Ran's cooking.
Qin Ran didn't mind and said with a smile, "I'll make some for you another day. I won't embarrass myself today."
"Master, you are the best~ Hehehe" Yu Qianxia was extremely happy.
Seeing this, Yu Jiuhua felt a little jealous.
Zhou Zhen put down her chopsticks and said, "Not many boys can cook nowadays."
