That evening, at Chen Luo's home.
"Come on, Lao You, hurry up and bring the soup over!"
"Hey! Honey, don't move. Just sit here and chat with Xiao Wen. Don't tire yourself out."
"Liuhua! Come here! Help your uncle take the fish out!"
Chen Guangrong was busy in the kitchen, his tone filled with excitement and joy.
Originally, they planned to eat at a hotel, and Chen Guangrong was prepared to spend a lot of money to have the best banquet. However, Wen Wan said she wanted to eat at home, so he immediately took You Lijun and his family of three to the market for a big shopping trip.
Today, I'm going to do everything in my power to properly thank Wen Wan and that Mr. Wen the Immortal.
The kitchen was bustling with activity, and the living room was equally lively.
When Ling Huihua learned that there was finally hope for a cure for her illness, she was in high spirits. She kept talking to Wen Wan, as if she had endless things to say. Wen Wan's excellent conversation skills made Ling Huihua even happier.
Meanwhile, Chen Luo warmly greeted Wen Busi, since his mother would have to rely on him after falling ill, and he had to take good care of him.
"Mr. Immortal, please have some tea."
"It must have been very kind of you, Mr. Immortal, to come all this way. On behalf of my mother, I would like to express my gratitude to you once again."
"When we arrive in the capital, my mother's illness will depend on you, sir. I am extremely grateful."
I learned from Wen Wan that this immortal gentleman was almost ninety years old and a bit rigid. I tried to make my tone as close to his style as possible.
Wen Busi took the teacup, took a sip, and then looked Chen Luo up and down, his gaze making Chen Luo feel uneasy.
"Um, Mr. Immortal, is there something on my face? Or have you noticed any illness in me?"
"Thump!"
Gently setting down the teacup, a rare smile appeared on Wen Busi's usually stern face.
"No, that's not true. You're very healthy, strong, and have plenty of kidney energy. I imagine you're not weak in that area either. You should be able to do it seven times a night without any problem. You're so lucky, Sixth Girl."
Upon hearing this, Wen Wan's face flushed red, and she looked at Wen Busi in a panic.
"Oh dear, Mr. Immortal, what are you saying?"
"What are you afraid of? Are you two more old-fashioned than this old man? Besides, you two have long ago... umm!"
Chen Luo quickly went over and covered Wen Busi's mouth to stop him from saying anything more.
Please! Sir! You're almost ninety! Don't be so open-minded!
Are you trying to scare me to death by talking about our private matters in front of my parents?
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Chen Luo chuckled strangely, then quickly made up his mind and released Wen Busi's mouth.
"Mr. Immortal, please continue. Why are you staring at me like that?"
Wen Busi gave him a disgruntled look, and after catching his breath, he continued to speak.
"I just want to see what kind of talented young man could be so infatuated with Sixth Sister."
“I’ve watched Liu Yatou grow up. Over the years, she has never asked anyone for help, but this time she has actually come to me for help for the first time ever.”
"That's why this old man came to take a look, but after seeing you, I feel that you're not quite up to par."
"Although he is handsome, he is not as good-looking as Pan An. How could Liu Yatou be so infatuated with you? It is really strange."
Wen Wan and Chen Luo exchanged a glance, both seeing a smile in each other's eyes.
The way their relationship is now is truly amazing.
Whether it was their childhood encounter or the rapidly growing love that has blossomed over time, it all has a unique flavor that belongs exclusively to the two of them.
"Mr. Immortal, matters of the heart are perhaps beyond even your control."
"That's true. I've experienced a lot in my life, but I've never been involved in matters of the heart, so naturally I have no right to comment."
Upon hearing this, Chen Luo immediately rubbed his hands together and looked at him with a smile.
"It seems Mr. Immortal has fallen for worldly desires. No problem! Leave this to me. I'll go to the nursing home right away and find you a few still-charming old ladies so you can start a twilight romance!"
"Get the hell out of here, kid, you're asking for a beating."
Wen Busi reached out as if to hit Chen Luo, but Wen Wan quickly stepped forward to stop him, spreading her arms to protect Chen Luo.
Wen Busi was immediately speechless with anger and spoke in a curt tone.
"Sixth girl, you're not even married into the family yet! You're already so protective of your husband, you'll suffer a great loss in the future!"
"Dinner's ready! Dinner's ready! Mr. Immortal, Xiao Wen, please come to the table and eat! Miss Mo Lan and Miss Mo Ye, please come and eat with us too."
Chen Guangrong invited everyone to sit down. The table was full of delicious dishes, including home-style dishes, local specialties, and delicacies from land and sea. It was clear that Chen Guangrong had put in a lot of effort.
"Mr. Immortal, Xiao Wen, these are just some simple home-style dishes, a bit meager, but please make do with them."
Wen Busi glanced at the dishes on the table and spoke first.
"I just like home-cooked meals. What's so great about big fish and meat dishes?"
Without any politeness, he picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a piece of chicken, and started eating.
Wen Wan picked up her wine glass and said to Chen Guangrong, "Uncle, you've gone to a lot of trouble. This table full of delicacies is truly a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, making one's mouth water."
Chen Guangrong smiled, raised his wine glass, and gently clinked it with Wen Wan's.
"Xiao Wen, your aunt and I don't know how to thank you. Saying too many words of thanks would be too formal, so we can only cook this table of dishes to properly toast you."
Ling Huihua and Chen Guangrong raised their glasses to toast Wen Wan, then turned their gaze to Chen Luo.
"Xiao Wen, I only have one son. To thank you, I'm giving him to you."
"From now on, if he dares to say even the slightest thing that displeases you, call me and I'll come over and break both his legs immediately!"
"Okay, thank you, Uncle and Aunt!"
Wen Wan smiled and drank the wine in her glass in one gulp. Then the family banquet began. Everyone was laughing and chatting. Even Wen Busi was so happy that he drank several glasses of wine.
After drinking more than a dozen glasses of wine, Wen Wan's cheeks were flushed, and she leaned on Chen Luo's shoulder.
"Did you hear that? Your uncle is entrusting you to me."
"Yes, yes, I belong to you completely. By the way, now that you're here, do you want to go out and have some fun tomorrow?"
Upon hearing this, a scene suddenly flashed into Wen Wan's mind, and a smile appeared on her lips.
"Okay, I'd like to go back to your old house in the countryside to take a look, is that alright?"
"Okay! Let's go tomorrow."
Chen Luo readily agreed, while Wen Wan subtly gave Mo Lan a look, which Mo Lan immediately understood, and she grabbed her phone and went outside.
Once outside, Mo Lan dialed a number.
"Hey! Premier Wen has ordered that Base Three be activated. Make all preparations tonight!"
