Chapter 133 The Male Lead's Attempt to Get Closer to the Gu Family
When Chu Yan saw Li Xiang say this, and then saw Gu Qinglang go in to get food, he didn't sit down either, and planned to go in and help.
Gu Qingming stopped him.
"You're a guest, you don't need to help! The food was prepared by the two of us together, it's not tiring for two people to cook together, just let them serve it, please sit down!"
Gu Qinglang took out the bowl and said with a smile, "Xiao Yan is too kind! The soup is ready, I'll go get it!"
The two chatted for so long in the car that Gu Qinglang could even call her "Xiao Yan" now!
Li Li wanted to help, but was stopped. His injured leg was getting uncomfortable from sitting for so long, and Gu Qinglang noticed this and told him to stay seated.
After all the dishes were served, Li Xiang said with a smile, "These are all home-style dishes, please try them!"
On the table are stir-fried garlic sprouts with cured pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, boiled shrimp, stir-fried duck with young ginger, and mutton soup. All of these dishes were bought directly from this market and are very fresh!
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chu Yan picked up a piece of duck meat and tasted it. The duck meat was tender, spicy, and had a fresh and sweet flavor. It was different from the duck meat in the school cafeteria and tasted very good.
"This duck meat has a sweet and fresh taste, it's delicious. Is it free-range?" Chu Yan asked with a smile.
Li Xiang was surprised that he knew these things, and nodded happily: "That's right! I specially bought local duck! It's delicious, isn't it! If it's delicious, eat more!"
Let's all start eating.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Chu Yan got up to help clear the table, but the driver stopped her.
"I'll do it! I've been sitting for a while and I've just eaten, so it's a good time to stretch my legs! I do this all the time at home! I know how to do it! You guys stay seated!" The driver dared not let his young master do anything. What was the young master's status? What was his status? If the young master didn't do anything, and he just sat there, what would that look like?
Chu Yan kicked the driver, but the driver didn't notice and was rolling up his sleeves to pack up.
Chu Yan could only sit and look at the driver who was trying to curry favor. He should have been the one doing the currying favor. He wouldn't bring the driver next time!
As a result, the driver who was preparing to pack up was also stopped by Gu Qinglang, and he and Gu Qingming stopped him together.
Then Li Xiang and Gu Qinglang went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, while Gu Qingming sat and chatted with Chu Yan.
After exchanging a few words, Gu Qingming's phone rang, saying that someone was coming to view the apartment and asked him to come over and take a look.
Seeing his predicament, Chu Yan immediately let him go over.
"I can sit here by myself. Uncle Gu, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it! It's okay, I'll sit here for a while longer and then go back!"
Seeing that things were urgent and there seemed to be a lot of people coming, Gu Qingming nodded and said, "Then you all sit down first. I'll go take a look and be right back!" He then went into the kitchen, told Gu Qinglang, and left.
After everyone left, the driver also got up: "I'm going to fill up the gas tank. Young master, please have a seat."
Chu Yan didn't care and waved for him to leave.
Li Li didn't know what to say to Chu Yan, and since he was feeling a bit unwell, he just sat there in a daze.
People tend to get sleepy after a full meal, and since the room was quiet, Chu Yan drifted off to sleep without realizing it.
After Gu Qinglang finished washing all the pots, he looked at his sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, will you wash the rest? I'll go outside and sit with them. It's a bit impolite for the host to be alone!" He had wanted to go out when his older brother came in, but he had just finished washing the pots, so he had to wait until he finished before he could leave.
Li Xiang nodded: "Go ahead, I'll take care of the rest. You can put some fruit or snacks on the table."
When Gu Qinglang went out, he saw Chu Yan and Li Li, who were fast asleep on the sofa.
Gu Qinglang smiled helplessly. It was so cold that they would easily catch a cold if they fell asleep on the sofa. He went and got a clean blanket to cover them up.
After sitting for a while, seeing a breeze coming in from outside, Gu Qinglang got up and closed the door a little. Seeing that Chu Yan didn't seem to be waking up, he leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest. He was too tired after staying up all night. Gu Qinglang, who had only planned to rest for a while, also fell asleep without realizing it.
After Li Xiang finished tidying up, she saw the milk in the cupboard, turned around and left the kitchen: "There's milk at home, do you want some? I'll heat it up for you..."
Before I could finish speaking, I saw that the adult and the two children were asleep on the sofa.
Seeing this, Li Xiang quietly went out the door and then sat down at the door to chat with the owner of the clothing store next to her.
Half an hour later, the driver finally returned. Seeing the door closed and Li Xiang still sitting at the door, he became puzzled.
Li Xiang also saw the person, pointed into the room and smiled, "She's asleep, probably too tired. Let me see if she's awake."
As soon as she finished speaking, the door opened, and Chu Yan walked out looking energetic. Seeing them at the door, she said apologetically, "I was a little sleepy and fell asleep without realizing it. Uncle Gu hasn't woken up yet. My grandfather just called, so I have to go back to avoid worrying him. Aunt, I'll head back now. Please tell Uncle Gu and Uncle Gu's brother for me. We're leaving now."
Li Xiang quickly nodded: "Then you should go back quickly, drive carefully on the road! No rush!"
After saying goodbye to Li Xiang, Chu Yan got into his car and left.
"Is that your nephew? He's so handsome! How do you raise your children? They're all so good-looking!" the clothing store owner asked in surprise.
Li Xiang shook her head: "He's not my nephew." Only after saying that did Li Xiang realize why Chu Yan called her Aunt and Gu Qingming Uncle. Shouldn't he call her Aunt and Gu Qingming Uncle according to Gu Shu's seniority? Why did he call them the same as Gu Yin and the others? Maybe his parents are younger than her? That's also possible.
Chu Yan, who had his own ulterior motives, never expected Li Xiang to think so much. He just called her that on purpose, hoping to slightly shorten the distance between himself and Gu Yin.
