Yan Yaoyao stared directly at Pei Jingzhan, directing her anger at him.
"Yan Qiao, how shameful is your friend that they're reluctant to take off their mask even though it's almost time to eat?"
Yan Yaohui knew he was in trouble and wished he could cover Yan Yaoyao's mouth.
Yan Qiao turned her head to the side. "Do you want to eat?"
She seemed determined to leave immediately if Pei Jingzhan didn't eat.
Pei Jingzhan chuckled, "Since we're already here..."
He casually raised his hand to touch his mask, then pulled it off, revealing his handsome and refined face.
The expressions on Yan Yaoyao's family's faces changed simultaneously.
Yan Yaoyao couldn't help but bite her lip; it was just too beautiful.
As one of the four young masters of Yancheng, Shen Zhou is already quite handsome.
But in his presence, they appeared dim and lackluster.
She almost crushed the spoon in her hand, and couldn't help but look at Yan Qiao.
Heaven seems to have been too kind to her.
Chen Lan and Yan Yaohui's change of expression was, of course, because they recognized Pei Jingzhan.
The third master of the Pei family was someone Yan Yaohui could only dream of.
Thanks to his marriage ties with the Shen family, he had made an appearance in front of Pei Jingzhan a few times.
Of course, I wanted to etch Pei Jingzhan's face into my mind.
Now, this person whom she had to fawn over was sitting right next to Yan Qiao.
Chen Lan slightly opened her mouth: "Three..."
Yan Yaohui quickly chimed in, "Mr. Pei is exceptionally handsome. No wonder he wears a mask. Such looks are unique in the entire Yancheng."
Yan Qiao exclaimed in surprise, "Did I just tell you that his surname is Pei?"
Yan Yaohui's face stiffened. No?
He sensed something was wrong and quickly lowered his head to drink his soup, trying to hide his emotions.
Pei Jingzhan smiled faintly, "I met your adoptive father once before."
Yan Qiao suddenly realized, "I know, you knew him before your family went bankrupt?"
Yan Yaohui spat out a mouthful of soup, but fortunately he kept his head down, so the soup sprayed all into the stew pot.
"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."
Bankruptcy? The Pei family?
Do young people these days like playing this kind of game? He's increasingly out of touch with trends.
Yan Qiao looked at him with disdain, "Mr. Yan, can't you be a little more considerate? How are others supposed to eat?"
Yan Yaohui nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I'm really sorry, I'm not being polite."
Yan Yaoyao: "???"
"Dad, what are you doing! It's just a cameraman, aren't you ashamed of yourself?"
Chen Lan said sternly, "Yao Yao, how dare you speak to Mr. Pei like that?"
She clenched her fists, wishing she could go back to when she first walked in.
If I had known this was Third Master Pei... I would have regretted it so much!
Yan Yaoyao stared in disbelief, “Mom!”
"If you don't want to eat, go back to your room and don't get in the way," Chen Lan said sternly.
Yan Yaoyao bit her lip, feeling extremely wronged, and immediately put down her chopsticks and ran upstairs.
Chen Lan had to suppress her anger and force a smile: "Mr. Pei, please don't mind, the child is just being ignorant."
Jin Lu stared unfocused at the bottom of the bowl, lost in thought.
Pei... So this man's surname is Pei.
Yao Wanchang once said that although Master Pei was of a high generation, he was not very old, only around 30 years old.
The man in front of me seems to fit everything.
Jin Lu stiffened her movements and turned her head to look at his sharply defined profile.
My resolve grew stronger.
He is none other than Master Pei!
Jin Lu felt a surge of excitement. The man that even Lin Kuan had to fawn over was now right in front of her.
But Yan Qiao seemed to know nothing about his identity.
No matter how carefree Yan Qiao was, she noticed that Chen Lan and Yan Yaohui's attitudes were off.
She whispered in Pei Jingzhan's ear, "Unsolicited kindness is either a trick or a theft."
Chen Lan: "..."
Yan Yaohui: "..."
Only Pei Jingzhan smiled and nodded indulgently, looking as if everything Yan Qiao said was right.
Chen Lan was filled with regret. If she had known that Yan Qiao had this ability, she would never have switched the two children back.
Master Pei! Even Chen Zhou isn't worthy to carry his shoes!
Yan Qiao looked at Yan Yaohui with a wary expression, "His family has already gone bankrupt, you don't need to fawn over him, it's useless."
Chen Lan wanted to slap him across the face. "You're bankrupt, but he'll never go bankrupt!"
"Yan Qiao, eat more. You've lost weight. Have you not been eating properly lately? Come home more often when you have time. Mom will cook you something delicious."
Chen Lan forced a smile and served Yan Qiao food in a friendly and considerate manner, completely changing her attitude.
Yan Qiao almost reached out and pinched Chen Lan's face to see if she was wearing a mask.
"You can change faces so well, you must have studied Sichuan opera, right? Even professional actors can't do it as well as you. When I was here, I never saw you cook. With your talent, it's a pity you're not in the entertainment industry."
Chen Lan's lips twitched twice, and she almost couldn't control her expression.
She would endure it! She would endure it just one more time!
"Mom didn't do well before, but she's been trying to correct it. If you're willing to come back, you'll find that Mom has changed a lot."
Yan Yaohui quickly chimed in, "Dad too! I've changed, your mom can vouch for that."
Yan Qiao gave an "oh" and glanced to the side.
"Your phone is ringing; someone is sending you a message."
Yan Yaohui chuckled and casually opened his phone, then opened WeChat.
"It must be someone from the company."
I didn't even see who sent it before I opened the voice message.
Honey, I've made you some soup. When are you coming home?
The soft, charming voice, coming from a cell phone with its speaker on, almost echoed throughout the dining room.
Yan Qiao was struggling to suppress her laughter. "Is this what Mr. Yan was talking about earlier, the change?"
Pei Jingzhan smiled helplessly and patted her head.
"Laugh if you want to, don't give anyone face."
Yan Qiao finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, as if the series of "hahaha" in the live broadcast room had solidified into reality.
Yan Yaohui was flustered and tried to pause the voice message.
It ended up playing again by accident.
At that moment, the last thread in Chen Lan's heart snapped. She grabbed the stew and slammed it down on Yan Yaohui's head, her eyes wide with fury.
"You have plenty of people to make soup for you anyway, so you probably don't need my share!"
Soup and liquid dripped from his head. Yan Yaohui closed his eyes, his face oily and disheveled.
Yan Qiao covered her mouth, her eyebrows curving into a smile.
"This can be considered a highlight of Mr. Yan's life."
Yan Yaohui dared not speak out against his anger. If Pei Jingzhan hadn't been there today, he wouldn't have let Chen Lan off the hook, even if it were in front of the live broadcast camera.
Chen Lan was furious and began to tear at Yan Yaohui.
"Get out of here right now! What are you doing here? Go drink your soup!"
Upon hearing the noise, Yan Yaoyao hurriedly ran downstairs.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Then, seeing Yan Qiao laughing gleefully, she angrily questioned, "Yan Qiao, what have you done now!"
Yan Qiao spread her hands innocently and said, "I didn't do anything. Your father's little lover called. The loving scene of your parents that you painstakingly created is like a bubble that will burst with a single prick."
No matter how much a couple pretends to be together, they're not real.
Yan Yaoyao, still retaining her rationality, pulled Chen Lan back.
"Mom, we're still recording the show. Don't make things so ugly. The Shen family will be coming to give me betrothal gifts later. What am I supposed to do if Dad isn't here?"
