"Madam..." Chi Chongyuan and Cheng Xiangyang were stunned, and were so busy that they wanted to stop Mei Ya. How could they dare to ask Mei Ya to cook?
"It's okay, let her go," Zhong Mingwei looked at the little girl's back as she ran quickly, feeling sweet and grateful in his heart. He said to Chi Chongyuan and the others, "She's very happy that you're here. If she doesn't cook a few dishes for you personally, she'll definitely feel guilty. That's just her nature."
Chi Chongyuan and Cheng Xiangyang were both stunned when they heard Zhong Mingwei say this. When they looked back at the tenderness on Zhong Mingwei's face, they were even more shocked. After all, Zhong Mingwei's temperament was never as exposed as it is now. The Zhong Mingwei they knew was unmoved, expressionless, and difficult to approach. Although they had heard Pang Yi talk about Zhong Mingwei and Mei Ya's various experiences early in the morning, and knew that Zhong Mingwei, who had experienced so much, must be completely different from before, but they were still shocked when they saw it with their own eyes today, because Zhong Mingwei's change was really...
From the high and mighty son of a phoenix and a dragon, to the gentle, humble, and down-to-earth man he is today, how can this be described as a complete change?
"Sit down, tell me about your life over the years," Zhong Mingwei asked them to sit down. He looked at the two people sitting side by side opposite him and couldn't help but sigh. "I remember when Chongyuan went to Southern Xinjiang, he was only fourteen years old, skinny and short. I didn't expect that he is now the father of two children. Xiangyang was one year younger than Chongyuan at that time, and he didn't even have a beard yet. I didn't expect that he has become a big bearded man now. I can hardly recognize him."
"Your Highness, Xiangyang has not only grown a beard, look at his belly!" Chi Chongyuan said, while patting Cheng Xiangyang's protruding belly with a smile, and said with great joy, "He even has the nerve to say shamelessly that he has a pot belly!"
"How can you be like this? I haven't seen Your Highness for nearly 20 years, and now that I've seen you, you're busy insulting me!" Cheng Xiangyang was not happy and slapped Chi Chongyuan's hand away, then smiled at Zhong Mingwei with narrowed eyes, "Besides, I'm not making up stories. This belly of mine is naturally called a general's belly, Your Highness, don't you agree?"
"Hahaha! That's right! Doesn't Xiangyang have a pot belly?" Zhong Mingwei was amused by them and laughed continuously. He hadn't laughed so heartily in years.
Chi Chongyuan saw Zhong Mingwei laughing heartily, but he couldn't laugh anymore. He looked at the fine lines at the corners of Zhong Mingwei's eyes, and then at his big hands on his knees. He paused, then asked in a low voice: "Master, is your leg... okay?"
As soon as Chi Chongyuan said this, Cheng Xiangyang also fell silent and looked at Zhong Mingwei nervously. The two of them had been worried about Zhong Mingwei's health for several years. Just now, on the way here, they were still talking about Zhong Mingwei's leg.
"It's fine now," Zhong Mingwei said to the two of them with a smile, patting his legs gently. "When I was in Ningguta, I was treated by Mr. Gu Changlin. I have been recuperating for such a long time, so I have recovered a long time ago."
Chi Chongyuan and Cheng Xiangyang heaved a long sigh of relief after hearing this. They were finally relieved. Chi Chongyuan said hurriedly, "Although you are fine now, Your Highness must take good care of yourself in the future and don't hurt your legs again. I brought a lot of medicinal herbs from southern Xinjiang to nourish you and your wife."
"I also brought Ganoderma lucidum, Tibetan ginseng, and Cordyceps sinensis," Cheng Xiangyang said hurriedly. As if he remembered something, he took out a stack of notes from his arms and handed them to Zhong Mingwei, smiling and saying, "It has been two years since the wedding of Master and Madam, but we two have not sent them gifts. This time when we came to the capital, we two decided that no matter what, we should give Master and Madam a decent gift. Please accept it."
