Chapter 1289 Draw your sword, lifelong enemy!!!
"Xiaoxiao, your uncle's study is a little dull. I wonder if your uncle likes this ornament?"
Not seeing Boss Li's eyes, Zhou Anan asked nervously.
He learned from Miss Wang's description that when Boss Li was young, he liked to lie under the shade of the trees in the old house and listen to the birds singing and cicadas chirping on his free summer afternoons. That's when he thought of the gift.
For this purpose, he specially sent someone to Shanghai to find this jade ornament. Not to mention the seven-digit price tag, the thoughtfulness behind it was definitely great.
When one reaches Mr. Li's level, his preferences will not be easily expressed, and he will not give outsiders the opportunity to take advantage of him. Only when he is with his relatives will he relax and make some natural actions.
As the future son-in-law, Zhou Anan gave nothing but some tea, and nothing else was quite appropriate. A jade ornament was just a test of the waters.
"not bad."
After closing the sandalwood box, Li Dongcheng poured a cup of tea for the other party and began to ask the usual questions as a parent: "How long have you known Xiaoxiao?"
"More than three years."
"Well, it's not that short. How well do you know Xiao Xiao?"
"As for clothes, Xiaoxiao prefers blue. As for food, Xiaoxiao likes spicy food but not too spicy. Slightly spicy is her favorite. As for cold drinks, Xiaoxiao prefers orange juice."
Not long after, Wang Xiaoxiao came over from the kitchen with a smokey smell, and said to her boyfriend who was chatting well with her father, "I told my mother that the crayfish you cooked is the most delicious. My mother asked you to help."
My mom is really something. The first time An An came to her house, she asked the other party to help with cooking. As a daughter, she couldn’t stand it.
"Okay, uncle, I'll go help aunt."
Without any awareness that this was her first visit to someone's house, Zhou Anan stood up and walked towards the kitchen without noticing the cute "threatening" gesture that Miss Wang made towards her father.
"Aunt, let me help you."
When Zhou Anan came to the kitchen, she watched the intellectual mother Wang, who was wearing an apron, washing crayfish, and took the initiative to take on the task of cleaning the shrimp glands and opening their backs.
"Xiao Zhou, I didn't expect you to be so skilled at this."
Although Wang Jingbi had read from his profile that the other party had opened a barbecue stall after graduating from high school, he couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw with his own eyes the skillful techniques of his future son-in-law who was worth tens of billions of dollars.
There is a reason why some young people are so outstanding.
Who could have imagined that a young man worth tens of billions of dollars would actually start a business as a cook? How many young girls would fall for him?
In this regard, the daughter's vision is as good as her mother's.
"I ran a barbecue stall for two months before I graduated from high school, and I learned this."
Zhou Anan has no embarrassment in talking about her entrepreneurial experience.
A successful man’s entrepreneurship is even more charming.
"Mom, An An's barbecue is really delicious."
While casually fiddling with the vegetables in the basket, Wang Xiaoxiao did not miss any opportunity to praise her boyfriend.
"Really? I'd like to try it if I have a chance."
Glancing at his protective daughter with amusement, Wang Jingbi took the vegetables that were being picked up by her, poured them into the pot and started to cook.
After several dishes were ready and seeing that Zhou Anan had already cleaned the crayfish, Wang Jingbi took the initiative to give up the position of chef and watched him fry, stir-fry, boil and stew.
It took more than half an hour for a young man to be able to concentrate on cooking, which is definitely not something he can pretend to do.
Furthermore, the other person was methodical in washing the crayfish, and cleaned up the water stains on the table after washing. Facing his daughter who was making trouble nearby, he smiled gently, showing his inner stability, attentiveness and tolerance.
No matter how you look at it, it’s excellent.
She specially bought some crayfish ingredients today just because her daughter mentioned it, and she bought some to test the other person's character.
So far, it's pretty good.
"Mom, please go out and accompany Dad. I'll just help An An here."
Remembering that she had not ticked the option of 'cooking with boyfriend' in her notebook, and worried that her mother might feel stressed, Wang Xiaoxiao considerately pushed her mother out of the kitchen.
Anyway, Brother An has reached the last step of cooking the lobster, and all he has to do is braise and roast it three times.
Well, that’s what Brother An just said.
See if there is time to turn off the fire. It is not difficult and she can do it alone.
"Okay. Xiao Zhou, I'll leave this to you."
As if she could see what her daughter was thinking, Wang Jingbi did not get in the way in the kitchen. She took off her apron and walked out.
After her mother left, Wang Xiaoxiao looked around the door quietly, then hugged her boyfriend from behind with a smug smile on her face.
So far, she knew her boyfriend was behaving great.
"Be careful not to get splashed."
Zhou Anan, who was turning over the crayfish, carefully stepped back a little to avoid hurting Miss Wang's tender white hand.
"It's okay, you will protect me."
After saying this coquettishly, Wang Xiaoxiao leaned her head on her boyfriend's broad back, feeling very safe.
On the other side, Wang Jingbi came to the living room and said to her husband who was admiring an ornament, "I think Xiao Zhou is a good kid."
"Well, what gift did I bring you?"
Li Dongcheng quietly closed the sandalwood box and responded casually.
That boy can figure out his preferences from his daughter's description, I wonder what the other party can guess about his wife's preferences.
By the way, is there any man in this world who understands his wife's preferences better than him?
"Let me see."
The crayfish would take another half an hour to cook, but Wang Jingbi was not worried about the embarrassment of being seen by the young man opening the gift privately.
Picking up the bag, Wang Jingbi clearly saw the logo on the jewelry box and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
He opened the box slowly, and a string of bright lights flickered under the light. Li Dongcheng turned around and looked at the fancy necklace in front of his wife with disdain.
Haha, that kid is really too young. He thinks his wife would like jewelry like other women.
Li Dongcheng, the husband, knew very well that his wife had never bought any jewelry over the years. At most, she would wear some ordinary accessories to decorate herself when she accompanied him to some dinner parties.
What's more, this kind of fancy necklace is the most annoying to my light-hearted wife.
This time, he won again.
"Love in a Fallen City?!!!"
Unaware of her husband's complicated feelings, Wang Jingbi looked at the exquisite necklace in front of her and immediately called out the other person's name, with joy that was hard to conceal in her eyes.
“.”
This is unscientific. When Li Dongcheng noticed his wife's surprised reaction, a string of inexplicable ellipsis floated over his head.
Could it be that the young man actually knew his wife's hobbies that he was not aware of?
Draw your sword, lifelong enemy!!!
