Chapter 609: Chapter 609: Each Other Tease

Zhu Qianying is well aware that her concern for her mother is just as intense as a mother’s towards her daughter.

Therefore, she tries to see the situation from her daughter’s perspective, without interfering or getting overly involved.

Much like her sister said, although she is the daughter, she has no right to deny her mother the warmth and happiness of being pursued as a woman.

However, not interfering with her mother does not mean she can’t sound a warning to Luo Yifan as a "guardian."

Luo Yifan is a smart man, so he naturally understands the meaning behind her words.

"I know! My main goal is to learn something from your mother. You see, when a person goes too far down a determined path, the increasing applause and flowers along the way make one forget the original intention, and even the initial joy!"

At first, Zhu Qianying couldn’t understand what about her mother, apart from her talent as a chef, had attracted Mr. Luo’s attention.

Now, hearing him speak, she faintly understands that perhaps, Luo Yifan sees his early entrepreneurial spirit in her mother.

This implies that his feelings for Chen Jing go beyond a simple infatuation ignited by a shared interest and ambition.

Of course, such words can be seen as empty promises in the ears of others.

However, for Zhu Qianying, who has witnessed her mother’s transformation from a weak, dependent woman into a strong, independent individual, these words are more comforting and pleasant than any other.

"Um, I hope Uncle Luo can get along well with my mother."

Zhu Qianying’s words can be considered as a blessing rather than a wish.

Luo Yifan seemed to understand this as well.

"Of course! Don’t worry!"

Having received Luo Yifan’s assurance, Zhu Qianying followed the two little brats to the kitchen to greet her mother. Then she took two little snack-lovers out, their mouths full of crumbs.

"Uncle Luo, this is for you!"

Zhu Qianying had a box of snacks that Chen Jing specifically made for her to take back to the Yan Family, and she casually took a plate out for Luo Yifan.

Luo Yifan was pleasantly surprised. Having been neglected all day, he was now thrilled to be presented with a plate of snacks.

"Thank you! I was getting hungry and wanted to find something to eat!"

Zhu Qianying smiled at him and waved him goodbye, the two little ones mumbling farewell with their mouths full of snacks.

"Goodbye, Grandpa Luo!"

Luo Yifan patted the heads of the two little treasures, "Goodbye little ones, see you tomorrow!"

Zhu Qianying packed up the snacks, got the two little ones in the car, and as soon as they got on, the little master, who had finally swallowed the snacks in his mouth, started to gossip.

"Mommy, is Grandpa Luo pursuing Grandma?"

Zhu Qianying knew just how clever this little one’s eyes could be.

"Who told you that? Don’t guess!"

Zhu Qianying denied it immediately to prevent the young master from jumping to conclusions and starting something unnecessary.

"Doesn’t it have to be said? It’s like he’s stupid, he likes Xiao Wan from the next class, and waits for her every day after school. Isn’t Grandpa Luo waiting for Grandma to finish work too?"

The young master’s logic seemed ridiculous at first, but upon closer thought, it seemed correct.

"Grandpa Luo is not waiting for Grandma to finish work. He is participating in a competition with Grandma, so of course, he must spend more time coordinating."

Zhu Qianying tried to gloss over the situation by citing work-related reasons, not realizing that the young master was not easily fooled.

"Mommy, Grandpa Luo is the boss, not a chef. It should be the chef who’s participating with Grandma..."

Left with no option, Zhu Qianying replied, "Grandma is also a boss, isn’t she?"

Apparently finding his mother’s explanation unconvincing but unable to refute it, the young master scratched his head and said, "Ok, then Young Master has been happy for nothing."

Although he said so, he still held out hope in his heart, so when he saw Chen Jing coming home before nine o’clock, he ran over in surprise, looking up at Chen Jing.

Puzzled, Chen Jing touched his head, "What’s the matter? Don’t you recognize Grandma? Or is there something dirty on my face?"

She questioned while touching her own face.

The little boy tilted his head and looked at Chen Jing for a while, then buried his face in her body, taking some deep breaths.

His behavior made Chen Jing even more confused.

"What’s wrong exactly?" She held up his chubby face.

The little one blinked, "Grandma, didn’t you go on a date?"

Chen Jing paused in surprise, "Date? With whom?"

Chen Jing immediately thought of Xiao Ya. She must have been telling some stories to the little one.

"With Grandpa Luo! Wasn’t he waiting for you to finish work and go on a date?"

Even after Zhu Qianying’s explanation, it was clear that the little one was still holding firm to his own beliefs.

Chen Jing frowned, "Silly, grandma is at work, how could she go on a date with him? Stop thinking nonsense and go to bed, it’s past your bedtime."

With his speculation negated, the young master ran off with a disappointed face.

Seeing him run up the stairs, Chen Jing shook her head in wonder.

Could it be that Luo Yifan had said something to this little one?

It looks like she will need to have a talk with him tomorrow!

When she came out of the bath, she saw her daughter sitting on the sofa, and there was a bowl of soup on the coffee table today.

"Mom, I just made it, have a bowl."

Chen Jing walked over, obediently picked up the bowl and drank half of it in one go.

In reality, a variety of soups were being made daily at the restaurant, so Chen Jing was never short of soup.

However, she did understand that this was her daughter’s way of showing her concern. Thus, the soup tasted extraordinarily good.

Isn’t emotional care just like that? You coax me, and I coax you?

For example, her daughter also can cook and make snacks, but she would still frequently make delicious food for her daughter as per her daughter’s preference.

"Hmm, the taste is good. Did you make this seasoning yourself?"

Because the taste was different from what she usually drank, that’s why she asked.

"Yes, I did. Young Master Yan’s eyes have been uncomfortable lately, so I added some noble dendrobium."

"He should stay up less at night. If he keeps working overtime like this, he will exhaust his body!"

Chen Jing also sympathized with her son-in-law. Compared to Ji Huan, her younger son-in-law, this elder one worked much more.

He carried the burdens of two families on his shoulders.

Zhu Qianying also wished that the young master could reduce his overtime.

"Hmm, I’ll talk to him about it!"

Although she responded in such a manner, Zhu Qianying knew better than anyone that with all that had happened recently, Young Master Yan would undoubtedly be busy.
