Luo Yifan and his two sons were invited to the table as guests.
"Aunt Jing, Yingzi, Xiaoyu, thank you all for your hard work!" After taking his seat, Luo Xian smiled and expressed his gratitude to the three ladies.
Zhu Qianying smiled and waved her hand, "Daxian, Xiaoyu and I didn't help at all. We just chatted with my mom inside. These dishes were all made by my mom according to your tastes. Try them and see if they suit your palates."
Zhu Qianying knew that if she didn't say these things, her mother definitely wouldn't.
But in the current situation, Zhu Qianying needs to let the Luo brothers know how much their mother values their visit.
The level of importance she placed on it even exceeded the level she placed on her two sons-in-law.
Of course, Zhu Qianying didn't care about this, but it showed that her mother really wanted to cherish this happiness this time.
The so-called happiness is not just the happiness between her and Luo Yifan.
Because everyone has their own children, true happiness can only be achieved when everyone can come together and become a real family.
Clearly, his mother had seen through this, so she wanted to make a good impression on the two brothers.
She knew that her cooking skills were the best among all her skills, so she declined Luo Yifan's suggestion to eat out and have a good chat, and instead chose to entertain the two brothers at home.
Furthermore, she never asked her two daughters to help with any of the dishes, just to show her sincerity.
After hearing Zhu Qianying's words, Luo Xian and Luo Chang stood up, picked up their glasses of red wine, and handed them to Chen Jing, saying, "Aunt Jing, thank you for your hard work! I'm also grateful for your help in taking care of my father these days!"
After the two brothers finished speaking, they raised their glasses and drank the wine in them.
Clearly, they were quite satisfied with Chen Jing.
Of course, their understanding of Chen Jing did not come solely from her actions today.
Ever since they learned that their father had left Beijing and was staying in L City for Chen Jing, they had been asking around about Chen Jing.
To be honest, at first, they really despised Chen Jing's past with Zhu Zhizhou.
Later, after hearing the chefs at Fanxin Restaurant talking about Chen Jing, the two of them, out of curiosity, secretly came to L City and had someone reserve a table of food. Since Luo Yifan was staying at the restaurant, they couldn't show themselves, so they just had a friend pack the food for them.
The two brothers, who had enjoyed all kinds of delicious food at Fanxin Restaurant since childhood, were surprisingly and easily impressed by Chen Jing's culinary skills.
It can only be said that these three people, father and sons, are indeed people with the same blood and genes. They actually developed feelings for one person for such a simple reason.
Only then did they inquire about Chen Jing's past from Ji Huan, and what they received was all positive, after all, Chen Jing was Ji Huan's mother-in-law.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Luo brothers, Chen Jing was the best example of a loser's rise to success, and their goodwill towards her naturally increased further.
Later, when their father's lawyer mentioned that absurd bet, the two brothers were really on edge.
It wasn't that they were afraid the family property that originally belonged to the two brothers would be taken away, but rather that they were afraid their father would suffer a major setback, ultimately losing all the family business and not even getting the person back. That would be more than just pitiful.
So, when Luo Yifan called Luo Xian the night before last to explain the situation, Luo Xian's first question was, "Dad, did she sign that bet?"
"No, she said she's already my girlfriend, so the bet no longer exists, and therefore, we can't sign."
It was this one sentence that dispelled the last bit of concern in Luo Xian's brothers, who gladly came to keep the appointment.
What they didn't say was that the two brothers referred to Chen Jing as "our new mom" on the plane.
Chen Jing was already shy, and after hearing Luo Xian's words, her face turned bright red again. "Xiao Xian, what are you saying? Your dad is a perfectly healthy man, why would he need me to take care of him?"
Luo Xian smiled at Luo Yifan, but didn't reply. He simply poured himself another glass of wine, raised it to Luo Yifan, and said, "Dad, good luck!"
Luo Yifan raised his glass and readily agreed, "I will!"
After saying that, the father and son tilted their heads back and drank the wine in their glasses together.
Chen Jing wasn't stupid; listening to the back-and-forth conversation between the father and son, her face turned even redder.
Zhu Qianying has always enjoyed watching dramas, but seeing that her mother was so embarrassed she wished she could disappear into a hole, she quickly picked up a cup, stood up, and tried to smooth things over.
"Uncle Luo, please take good care of my mother regarding the food expo. Although she is an excellent cook, she has never seen much of the world and may be nervous. With you by her side to support her, Xiaoyu and I can rest assured."
Zhu Qianying seemed to have changed the subject, but in reality, it was still about the same thing. She just put it more tactfully, which made Chen Jing, the person involved, feel much more comfortable.
“Ying’er, this isn’t just your mother’s problem, it’s mine too. So don’t worry, I won’t let your mother have a chance to make a mistake.”
Initially, Luo Yifan was genuinely attracted to Chen Jing's superb culinary skills; his feelings for her stemmed more from a desire to appreciate her talent. Furthermore, at that time, he couldn't find suitable vegetarian dishes to accompany his dishes at Fanxin Restaurant, which is why he approached her.
Even he himself did not expect that what started as a simple idea of cooperation would eventually develop into so many special feelings for Chen Jing.
By the time he realized it himself, it was too late to extricate himself.
"Haha, that's right. Uncle Luo and my mom are a perfect team, working together to achieve victory!"
After Zhu Qianying finished speaking, she raised her cup and drank all the tea inside.
Luo Chang, being younger, didn't quite understand some things. Seeing the tea in Zhu Qianying's cup, he teased, "Yingzi, this isn't right. We're all drinking wine, but you're drinking tea."
Luo Xian, who was sitting next to him, kicked him under the table, then smiled apologetically at Zhu Qianying, "Yingzi, don't mind this idiot. He's just a young kid who doesn't know any better!"
Zhu Qianying smiled and said nothing, but picked up the wine and poured more wine for Luo Yifan and his son.
Yan Shao naturally understood everything before him. He gestured for Zhu Qianying to fill his glass with wine, stood up, and handed it to Luo Yifan and his two children. "Ying'er hasn't been feeling well lately, so she's temporarily given up drinking. I'll drink this wine for you. Here, let me toast you."
With that, he handed over the cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Luo Xian quickly poured himself a large glass. It wasn't that he was afraid of Yan Shao, but rather that he felt his younger brother had been too rude. Ji Huan and Yan Shao had been discussing the baby, and this idiot couldn't understand why.
