Chapter 218 Does it hurt?
Xia Zhonggeng came to the living room and just greeted Ji Chen when he saw his little granddaughter beside Ji Chen. The smile on his face froze.
Why did Wanwan come down?
He hadn't even had the chance to tell her...
Bai Lianwan looked at the enthusiastic smile on Xia Zhonggeng's face and felt a little confused.
I also heard from the conversation between several people that Ji Chen came here today because he had an appointment with some elderly people.
Why does grandpa not agree with her being with Ji Chen and ask Ji Chen to come over?
Still so enthusiastic?
At this time, Ji Chen saw Xia Zhonggeng and greeted him warmly, "Master, where is Master's wife?"
Xia Zhonggeng smiled unnaturally and said, "She's busy right now. Come and sit down, Xiaoji."
Although he was smiling, Xia Zhonggeng felt very bitter in his heart at this moment.
Xie Jinglan was angry with him because he asked his little apprentice to come over and was afraid that it would affect his granddaughter's mood.
Indeed, given Wanwan and Ji Chen's current state, he should have avoided meeting them, but his hand just wouldn't obey him last night, and when he saw his little disciple say he wanted to come over, he replied directly!
Xia Zhonggeng had a feeling that today's meal would not taste good!
Ji Chen also noticed that Xia Zhonggeng's expression was not right, but he didn't say anything. He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go prepare the meal. Master, you guys should have a good rest today."
Wang Zhirong nodded. "Sure. I've always heard from Old Xia that Xiao Ji is a very good cook. I'm in for a treat today."
“There are very few young people who can cook nowadays. Almost all of them eat takeout, which is so unhealthy,” Sun Xiangxing admired sincerely.
Lin Changsheng suddenly recalled the time when he ate the meal cooked by Bai Lianwan herself. "I don't like taking out either, but if it's cooked by Wanwan, maybe takeout would be healthier."
Bai Lianwan, who was caught in the crossfire, responded: "Huh??"
Although Lin Qingya didn't say anything, she expressed her deep agreement with Uncle Lin's words!
She still remembered that time when Uncle Lin lay in bed for several days before he recovered.
Li Xianlin said with a smile, "Since Xiaoji can cook and Wanwan can't, why not let Xiaoji teach Wanwan more and hand over the kitchen to the young people today."
Sun Xiangxing smiled and said, "Sure, let's try the taste and craftsmanship of today's young people."
Xia Zhonggeng, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment. He looked at his apprentice and granddaughter with a subtle expression, "This, this is not good, right?"
Why does he feel like Lao Li is causing trouble?
Can Wanwan and Xiaoji be alone now?
No way!
Li Xianlin continued, "What's wrong with that? Old Xia, why do I feel like you're a little strange today?"
"Yeah, your face turns red and white? Are you feeling unwell?" Lin Changsheng also asked in confusion.
Xia Zhonggeng sighed, "No, then Qingya, Wanwan, Xiaoji, today's lunch is up to you."
He didn't want these people to know that Wanwan liked Xiaoji. It wasn't because he wanted to be distant with them, but because he was afraid that Wanwan would feel embarrassed.
After all, they all knew that Ji Chen had a girlfriend, and Wanwan fell in love with a boy who had a girlfriend, which was not a good thing after all.
However, as long as he doesn't let Xiao Ji and Wan Wan be alone together, the two should keep their distance.
Lin Qingya nodded enthusiastically after hearing what Xia Zhonggeng said, "No problem, Grandfather! I will definitely kowtow well—no, help well."
Ji Chen also smiled and said, "No problem."
Bai Lianwan naturally had no objection, "Okay."
After saying that, Ji Chen carried the ingredients and took Bai Lianwan and Lin Qingya into the kitchen.
Xia Zhonggeng greeted a few old friends and prepared to sit down and chat.
However, just as he was asking a few people to sit down, he saw Xie Jinglan coming out of the study and immediately went to greet him.
"Xiaolan, are you not angry anymore?" Xia Zhonggeng asked in a low voice.
Xie Jinglan frowned slightly. "What's the point of being angry? Besides, Xiao Ji is here. I must say hello to him. As long as he and Wan Wan can keep their distance, it's fine. Where is he?"
Xia Zhonggeng couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and hurriedly stopped Xie Jinglan and said, "Xiao Ji has started cooking in the kitchen. I've already called for you."
When Xie Jinglan heard what Xia Zhonggeng said, she frowned slightly and said, "How can I let Xiao Ji work alone? I'll go and help."
Although Ji Chen was not her apprentice, she treated this child as her own and liked him very much. How could she bear to let him cook for so many people alone?
Seeing his wife's insistence on helping, Xia Zhonggeng coughed twice unnaturally and said, "I, I asked Wanwan and Qingya to help him."
"What? You, you asked Wanwan to help?" Xie Jinglan's face suddenly turned dark.
How can one be a grandfather?
Knowing that Wanwan likes Ji Chen, but unable to let them be together, why do you still create opportunities for them to be together?
Thinking of this, Xie Jinglan was immediately furious, "Old Xia, I think you are really confused!"
Xie Jinglan had just recovered a little bit of her mood, but it was gone instantly.
Xia Zhonggeng argued, "Anyway, the two of them will meet at school, and I asked Qingya to come along, so it's not like we're alone together. Wanwan will pay attention."
Xie Jinglan was helpless, "It's up to you!"
She felt a headache.
Moreover, she couldn't keep arguing with Xia Zhonggeng about this, so she could only wait until after today and do it herself, trying to avoid being alone with each other.
After saying a few words to Xia Zhonggeng, Xie Jinglan walked up to Lin Changsheng and the others to greet them.
Although she was very upset about the matter between Wanwan and Xiaoji, she could not neglect the guests because of her emotions, especially since these people were Lao Xia's good friends.
…
In the kitchen...
Bai Lianwan was helping to pick vegetables. She still felt a little hurt by her uncles' disdain for her cooking skills.
Ji Chen was washing vegetables. Looking at the depressed little guy beside him, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Bai Lianwan shook her head, "No."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Ji Chen's hand as he was taking vegetables from the basket. His fingers, which were once very beautiful, now had several deep marks on them.
The moment she saw Ji Chen's fingers, Bai Lianwan almost instinctively reached out and grabbed Ji Chen's wrist.
"Let me see your hands."
Ji Chen felt the coldness on his wrist, but did not move. With a faint smile on his lips, he obediently let the girl check him.
Those things were indeed not light. Although he lifted them without any effort, there were still a few obvious marks on his fingers, but he hardly felt anything.
Bai Lianwan looked at the marks on Ji Chen's hand, her brows furrowed. She gently stroked them with her cool fingertips, looked at him, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Ji Chen wanted to say it didn't hurt, but seeing the distressed look on the little girl's face, he suddenly wanted to enjoy it a little longer, so he replied, "It does hurt a little."
Hearing Ji Chen's answer, Bai Lianwan held Ji Chen's hands with her small hands, put her small mouth close to the marks, and breathed softly.
The soft and cool breeze passed through my fingers, feeling gentle and itchy, and my heart felt warm, which was really comfortable.
Bai Lianwan purred softly and looked at Ji Chen, "Do you want to apply some medicine?"
Ji Chen looked at Bai Lianwan and said seriously, "I think a kiss from Wanwan will definitely be more effective than applying medicine."
Bai Lianwan glanced at Ji Chen unhappily, "That's not serious at all. How could a kiss like that possibly have any effect?"
Ji Chen looked at Bai Lianwan deeply and chuckled, "How would you know if you don't kiss her?"
Bai Lianwan paused and said, “That’s true.”
After all... for her, Ji Chen seemed to be many times more effective than medicine.
Thinking of this, she held Ji Chen's hand with her fair little hand, lowered her head slightly, and gently kissed Ji Chen's fingers. Her movements were very gentle, for fear of hurting Ji Chen.
Ji Chen felt the softness coming from between his fingers, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and looking at the little girl's gentle and soft movements, the smile in his eyes deepened a little.
"Wow--"
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from the kitchen door.
Lin Qingya, who had just returned from finding a peeler, had been standing at the kitchen door eating dog food for quite a while. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help but make a sound.
These two are so sweet!
Hearing the sound from the kitchen door, Ji Chen didn't react much and smiled faintly at her. He had seen his cousin a long time ago, but he was a little addicted to the feeling of being loved by this little girl and didn't want to interrupt.
Bai Lianwan's heart skipped a beat. She turned around and saw that it was Lin Qingya. She relaxed instantly and looked at Ji Chen again. "Are you feeling better?"
Ji Chen smiled and nodded, "Much better, I don't feel any pain at all."
Lin Qingya walked into the kitchen and exclaimed, "Oh my God, I feel like I already know what today's lunch will taste like."
Bai Lianwan finally let go of Ji Chen's hand and looked at her, frowning slightly. "What's that smell?"
Lin Qingya looked at the two well-matched people in the kitchen and replied with a smile, "What else could it smell like? Of course it smells like dog food!"
Bai Lianwan: "..."
Ji Chen smiled without saying anything, turned around and continued to work.
He didn't know if it tasted like dog food.
But today’s ingredients are all what Bai Lianwan likes to eat. I hope my uncles won’t find out later.
He felt a little embarrassed. He had clearly agreed to come over today to spend time with his uncles and cook for them, but as soon as he entered the supermarket, his little white rabbit was the only thing on his mind.
…
Half past eleven.
A table full of sumptuous food was served, and the smiles on the faces of Lin Changsheng and others indeed became a little complicated.
After all, they watched Wanwan grow up and loved her very much. How could they not see that there was not a single dish on the table that Wanwan didn't like?
But in the end, the old people were still happy. After all, they were also happy to see Ji Chen being nice to Wanwan.
Xie Jinglan and Xia Zhonggeng looked at the table full of food with complicated and conflicted expressions on their faces.
I have to admit that Ji Chen really dotes on Wanwan.
But given the current situation, these two children absolutely cannot be together!
The two elders even suspected that Ji Chen had started to have problems with his girlfriend because of Wanwan!
The more I watch, the more I feel that Ji Chen seems to like Wan Wan as well?
What should I do?
Of course, Ji Chen did not forget the task of today's meal.
He came here today to confront his enemies.
But before he could reveal his true intentions, he had to ensure that his master's wife would not be driven away by him.
Although Master's high blood pressure is quite scary and might cause some problems due to anger, he has also prepared antihypertensive drugs.
Otherwise, if you keep dragging it on, the little white rabbit will feel wronged!
So... he really feels sorry for both of them today.
After everyone sat down, Ji Chen poured drinks for the uncles one by one, then calmly mixed the prepared gene improvement potion into the kiwi juice cup, and placed it in front of Xie Jinglan naturally, saying with a smile, "Master's wife, have some juice."
Xie Jinglan looked at the kiwi juice that Ji Chen poured, but felt a little hesitant.
She actually doesn't like eating kiwis, but when she thought that this was specially poured for her by Xiao Ji, she had to drink it even if she didn't like it. She couldn't let the child down.
Thinking of this, Xie Jinglan stretched out his hand.
