Chapter 167 Preparing for the New Year



At noon, Gu Zixiao went to two places and bought the pig's trotters that Lan Yao wanted. He not only bought pig's trotters, but also beef, beef tendons, and several fish.

Grandma Yu was shocked when he brought these things back.

"Where did you find so many things?"

Gu Zixiao: "Of course it's the black market! It's almost Chinese New Year anyway. You and Lan Yao don't need to go out to buy these things, I'll buy them for you."

Lan Yao: "I'll go with you. That way, the two of us can buy more. Grandma Yu shouldn't go; it wouldn't be good if we ran into each other in a crowd."

Gu Zixiao: "Okay. Then let's go together."

Gu Zixiao cursed himself for being so stupid. How could he forget that he could go with Lan Yao? That way, wouldn't the two of them be on an indirect date?

Fortunately, his daughter Lanyao is smart.

Seeing that he agreed, Lan Yao nodded: "I'll take that thing inside."

Gu Zixiao: "Okay. The weather is quite cold now, so I'm not worried about it spoiling."

Lan Yao: "Even if you wanted to let it go bad, you wouldn't have the chance. I can eat a lot. Let's just stew all of these together tonight."

Gu Zixiao: "Okay. These things take quite a long time to stew. So I'll cook them all together in a bit."

Lan Yao: "Okay."

The two of them worked together to finish cooking, and Grandma Yu watched from the side, nodding in approval.

Young couples should be like this; otherwise, they definitely won't be able to make it work.

People like Lan Yao and Gu Zixiao will definitely have a bright future.

At first, Grandma Yu thought that Gu Zixiao, with such a strong and arrogant personality, would definitely not get married and would definitely not care about others.

Who would have thought that after he got together with Lan Yao, the way he looked at her with such tenderness was simply unbearable to watch.

However, she noticed that at the beginning, Lan Yao didn't seem to have any feelings for Gu Zixiao.

Later, for reasons unknown, the two decided to be together.

After observing them for a while, Grandma Yu felt that the two were a good match.

Gu Zixiao, in particular, now seems like a docile little lamb in front of Lan Yao, completely harmless.

Lan Yao also toned down her assertiveness and treated Gu Zixiao quite well.

The two of them are fine as they are.

Lan Yao turned around and saw Grandma Yu smiling at the two of them. Lan Yao looked puzzled and said, "Grandma Yu, what are you laughing at over there? It's a little scary."

Grandma Yu rolled her eyes at her, annoyed: "What else could I be laughing at? Of course, I'm laughing at how funny you two are."

Lan Yao: "What's so funny about the two of us?"

Grandma Yu: "Alright, alright. Stop asking. If you ask too many questions, I'll get impatient. Tell Gu Zixiao to hurry up and cook. I'm starving."

Lan Yao: ...

Okay!

Grandma Yu also has this fierce side, which is quite endearing.

Gu Zixiao pulled Lan Yao over: "Come on, darling. I'll make you some cold noodles. I just bought some chicken breast. How about some shredded chicken cold noodles?"

Lan Yao: "Can you do it?"

Gu Zixiao: "Of course, I knew you wanted to eat it. So I specially bought some chicken breast today."

Lan Yao: "Then you're quite good."

Lan Yao lifted her foot and gently kissed Gu Zixiao's cheek, instantly turning Gu Zixiao's fair cheeks red.

Gu Zixiao covered her cheek where she had been kissed: "...You, you shouldn't kiss me like that."

Lan Yao asked nonchalantly, "Why can't I kiss you casually? Aren't you my fiancé? Don't you want to marry me?"

Gu Zixiao: "Then, then it definitely isn't?"

Before Gu Zixiao could finish speaking, Lan Yao's eyes narrowed dangerously: "Definitely not? Hmm? Do you want to get beaten up?"

Gu Zixiao: ...

He quickly hugged Lan Yao and rested his head on her shoulder: "You, please let me finish. I'm definitely yours. That will never change. It's just that it's not good for your reputation for a girl like you to kiss me like this."

Lan Yao didn't seem to mind: "What's wrong with it being just the two of us here? Or are you just not willing to let me kiss you?"

Lan Yao was genuinely angry.

Gu Zixiao quickly replied, "Kiss, kiss, kiss. You can kiss me however you want."

As Gu Zixiao spoke, she offered her face.

Actually, he wanted Lan Yao to kiss him on the lips, but he was too shy.

Lan Yao shoved her away and snorted, "I'm not interested anymore. Hurry up and cook. I'm waiting to eat."

Lan Yao said this and strode away.

Gu Zixiao watched Lan Yao's departing figure, a look of disappointment on his face.

He was both disappointed and annoyed; he should have known better than to pretend.

Anyway, she's my wife, so I can kiss her however I want.

There was nothing she could do about her regret now. Gu Zixiao looked at the dishes on the stove and reluctantly started cooking.

Gu Zixiao felt that if she didn't cook, the consequences might be even more serious.

At noon, Lan Yao and Grandma Yu were able to enjoy the cold chicken noodles made by Gu Zixiao.

The taste is absolutely fantastic.

Lan Yao praised Gu Zixiao tirelessly, making Gu Zixiao blush slightly and feel particularly embarrassed.

Grandma Yu watched from the side, clicking her tongue in amazement: "When will we ever see Gu Zixiao blush? This is truly a rare sight."

Lan Yao asked from the side, "What, haven't you seen him before? I see him all the time."

Grandma Yu rolled her eyes at her: "How can you be compared to us?"

Gu Zixiao wouldn't even give them a glance, except when it came to Lan Yao.

Lan Yao said "Oh", "That's good. I don't want others to see a different side of Gu Zixiao."
