Chapter 192: The Ravines in the Brain and the Bends of the Mountain Road
Every year when she comes, Aunt Zhao would cook a few dishes herself, including Zhixian’s favorite sweet and sour pork ribs in a hot pot.
They all know Zhixian's favorite tastes and dishes.
He and Zhaoli don’t have any particular favorites, they eat a wide variety of foods, so they can eat anything.
It is obvious that Aunt Zhao likes Zhixian.
When Gu Yuchen and Li Chaomu were in love, Gu Yuchen brought Li Chaomu home during the Chinese New Year one year.
Uncle Gu and Aunt Zhao were open-minded and did not care too much about Li Chaomu's family background. After all, they understood one thing: even if they arranged a match for their son with a girl from a noble family who was well-matched with him, but he did not like her, his son would hate them and would not be nice to her, which would easily annoy her.
So it is better to let him fall in love freely and be with whoever he likes. Even if the girl is from a background like Li Chaomu, they can tolerate it. Anyway, it will be Gu Yuchen who will be most embarrassed.
When he brought Li Chaomu back that year, it happened to be the day when the three of them came to visit Gu's home. He guessed that Gu Yuchen did it on purpose and chose that day specifically because he wanted more people to come and make Li Chaomu less restrained.
But Aunt Zhao and Uncle Gu really like Zhixian, especially Aunt Zhao's obvious love for her. In previous years, she cooked those two dishes herself. As a result, Li Chaomu heard that those two dishes were made by Aunt Zhao. He wanted to please her by praising her for her delicious cooking. During the meal, he only ate those two dishes. So they never touched those two dishes. After all, she was showing off so much that Zhixian didn't get to eat any of them. He thought that the two of them could have the rest.
Zhixian stretched out her chopsticks towards the sweet and sour spare ribs several times, but Li Chaomu always took the ribs she wanted before her.
Zhihan stretched out her chopsticks for the last time and then realized that Li Chaomu seemed to have done it on purpose. She was extremely embarrassed. That was the last piece of pork ribs on the plate. She had already reached over and had no choice but to pick up a piece of ginger from the plate and silently put it into the bowl.
They were so embarrassed when they saw this scene.
They all knew what was going on, except Li Chaomu, who lowered his head and laughed out loud after seeing her pick up the ginger. He then raised his head and said to Aunt Zhao, "Aunt, the sweet and sour spareribs you made are delicious."
Aunt Zhao laughed twice, but there was no smile in her eyes, but Li Chaomu couldn't see it.
He guessed that Aunt Zhao was heartbroken at the time, but she didn't say anything because she was the person her son liked.
He felt that Gu Yuchen's parents were really open-minded. If Gu Yuchen was his son and brought back a girlfriend like this and bullied the daughter-in-law in their dreams, he would just flip the table.
The atmosphere of that meal was particularly strange, and only Li Chaomu finished his meal with a smile.
Later he heard Li Chaomu smilingly asking Gu Yuchen how she performed in front of his parents today, praising her mother for her delicious cooking and so on.
Gu Yuchen liked Li Chaomu very much at that time, so he could only tell her tactfully that it was not necessary to do this and that she should just eat what she wanted. However, Li Chaomu said that Gu Yuchen did not understand the intricacies of the matter.
He laughed out loud. Li Chaomu actually said that Gu Yuchen didn't understand twists and turns. His mind was full of twists and turns.
Li Chaomu was originally not very smart, and was completely conditioned by Gu Yuchen.
However, they do think that the sweet and sour pork ribs made by Aunt Zhao are getting better and better every year. When Zhixian and Yuchen were dating two years ago, Aunt Zhao always told Zhixian with a smile that when she married into their family, she would cook for her every day until she got tired of it.
At that time, Gu Yuchen was sitting next to them and watching his mother and his future wife talking these words calmly. He didn't know whether Gu Yuchen was thinking about his past with his ex or his future with his current partner during those few short sentences.
Gu Yuchen beat Zhixian, and his parents felt bad too.
Qin Zhaoli pulled him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Wen Zhixian also looked over and heard Song Kairui say, "I'm thinking about...some things in the past."
Wen Zhixian: “?” Why did he keep looking at her and Gu Yuchen while he was talking? It must have made his mind slippery and made him think too much!
Gu Yuchen's eyes darkened, and suddenly he disappeared. He smiled and said, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Uncle Gu laughed and said, "You kids, just sit and chat. I'll go see how your Aunt Zhao's cooking is going."
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the back hall.
"As for you and Li Chaomu, I suddenly feel that time flies. So many years have passed in a blink of an eye." Song Kairui looked at Wen Zhixian: "I didn't expect that you were the first to get married."
He spoke in a tone of disbelief, and then glanced at Qin Zhaoli with resentment.
And he almost got dumped.
Fortunately, the other party told him the truth, otherwise he would not forgive her. He is not the kind of person who can be summoned at will.
"Okay, let's get married after the New Year." Qin Zhaoli said slowly with his arms folded.
Song Kairui looked at her in shock, "Huh?"
Qin Zhaoli shrugged and said nothing.
She turned to look at Wen Zhixian, and raised the corners of her lips where Song Kairui couldn't see.
Wen Zhixian immediately understood that Zhaoli really had this plan.
Gu Yuchen said in a sinister voice: "Let's talk about other things. Can you please not mention Li Chaomu?"
"She seems to have become a different person now. Doesn't she want to come back with you to celebrate the New Year?" Qin Zhaoli asked.
"I did, but she has nothing to do with me, so why should I bring her back to celebrate the New Year?"
Song Kairui clapped his hands, "Brother, I was in a car accident and my love brain was injured and I was discharged from the hospital!"
When he said "discharged from hospital", Wen Zhixian couldn't help laughing out loud.
Gu Yuchen had no way to deal with him. "She and I are not in a romantic relationship. We haven't been in a romantic relationship since we broke up."
He paused, "I haven't thought about being with her since we broke up. Maybe it's just obsession."
He shook his head: "Don't mention it, it's very annoying."
They chatted for a while, and Aunt Zhao came over from behind, smiling and said, "It's time to eat."
The group walked into the restaurant and just as they sat down, Wen Zhihan's cell phone rang in her pocket. She took out her phone and took a look. It was a photo sent by Qi Yanjing. She was stunned.
In the photo, Qi Yanjing is wearing the body chain she bought before. She is shirtless and has eight-pack abs. She is wearing pants, and the muscle lines combined with the body chain are really attractive.
She had forgotten all about it.
Her cell phone was on the table. When this message was suddenly sent to her, she was in a panic trying to put the phone away and almost dropped it on the ground.
Qin Zhaoli accidentally saw a little bit just now... When he looked at Wen Zhixian, his eyes couldn't help but become abnormal.
Can you still play like this?
Wen Zhixian took a deep breath and smiled awkwardly at her.
When I looked again, Qi Yanjing had already withdrawn the picture, and sent a message in a teasing tone: [My hand slipped, I sent it to the wrong post. ]
