Chapter 29: Extravagant Beat the Drum, Pass the Flower
An injury taken for the as a badge of honor
Ding Meng’s maiden heart suffered a sudden blow
Qiao Yichen’s eyes looked even more brilliant than diamonds or even the stars in the sky Even when he looked at you expressionlessly like that, he could still make your face quickly heat up
“I’ll be heading to s and dashed into her room
Qiao Yichen couldn’t resist grinning fro shut in the hallway
He sealed up Ding Meng’s unfinished chuan chuan and placed it in the refrigerator After switching off the living rooht, he also returned to his room
Even after taking a shower, Ding Meng still hadn’t cal romantic just now? damn, he had actually turned into some sort of womanizer Really corrupted, way too corrupted!
She shook off her goose bumps and crawled into bed early
The next day when Qiao Yichen got up to prepare breakfast, he discovered Ding Meng was already busy in the kitchen An apron rapped around her waist and she was in thesun was still very gentle, so when the rays traveled through theand fell on her hair, little golden sparkles reflected in the light
Qiao Yichen was captivated by the scene When Ding Meng sensed that he was standing near the kitchen entrance, she turned around to look at him, “Ah you’re up I made some pork bone soup It’ll be ready in a second”
She had stewed this soup just for Qiao Yichen Since he was going to re more soup could aid his recovery
Qiao Yichen nodded his head slightly and walked over to sit down at the dining table Not long after, Ding Meng poured out a bowl of soup for him Inside were pork bones, white radish, corn, and even torant
“I simmered this soup for almost three hours Give it a taste and tell me what you think”
Qiao Yichen raised his eyebrows, “You woke up at 5 o’clock to make soup?”
Ding Meng nodded, “Yep, aren’t you going to remove your stitches today? This will help you recover faster”
Now Qiao Yichen understood what his mother meant when she said plenty of people would love to have a doting wife He picked up a spoon and tried a mouthful However, what careat, but in the future, don’t bother getting up so early to make me soup I can make my own breakfast”
Ding Meng, “…”
She really wanted to pour the soup over his head right now
“Drink as you please” She pouted and walked back into the kitchen to pour herself a bowl When she came back out, Qiao Yichen had already finished his bowl of soup
He let out a sigh and asked, “Are you going to the celebration this afternoon?”
Ding Meng replied, “Of course I’ot the invitation ready” Why would she not take advantage of an opportunity to feast for free? “Are you going too? You won’t be able to eat much with your head injured like that”
“Producer Mu personally handed me an invitation so I couldn’t refuse”
“…Eh, you’re so popular”
Qiao Yichen ignored her strange tone and followed up with another question, “Has Xingyao Entertainot in touch you yet?”
“Mhn the contract tomorrow”
Qiao Yichen thought for aa word After finishi+ng breakfast, he went to the hospital to re stayed at home under orders to make up yesterday’s practice
Qiao Yichen didn’t co casuallyfor the afternoon’s celebration
Producer Mu lived in an expensive villa Not only did she have a e lawn That here this afternoon’s BBQ would take place Ding Meng picked a dress froiven her, put on some makeup, and left to attend the celebration
When she got there, quite a few people had already arrived Besides the staff me stayed next to Producer Mu the entire ti to everyone, she didn’t beat around the bush Instead, she straightforwardly explained Mu Shuang was her niece
Al shi+ran laughed and chatted with the people next to her, acting as if she hadn’t seen Ding Meng After Mu Shuang finished her round of social obligations with Producer Mu, she also came over She was her usual cold, aloof self, and didn’t bother greeting anyone She sirill
Liao Qian on the other hand was very enthusiastic when she saw Ding Meng The two chatted as they grilled Ding Meng discovered through their conversation that she had already signed with Xingyao
It see a move
“I’ spoke, she walked to the area with all the food spread out When she picked up two plates of shrimp, she realized Qiao Yichen had also arrived
His appearance caused the scene to liven up a bit At thatvery cheerful Qiao Yichen was still wearing a cap on his head, probably because gauze was still required right after re felt a little sympathetic toward him The weather was already pretty war barbecue, but he had still had to wear a cap…
Poor thing
After Qiao Yichen finished his round of social obligations, he picked up a plate of chicken wings to grill Several contestants saw hi up a conversation with hi her two plates of shri shrimp
Qiao Yichen turned the chicken wings over and brushed on another layer oil He snuck a glance Ding Meng as sitting nearby eating shrimp When she ate shris She shoved everything else directly into her mouth Qiao Yichen was a little amazed, “You don’t peel off the shell when you eat shrimp?”
Ding Meng responded solemnly, “Mhm, more calcium”
Qiao Yichen, “…”
She was definitely just being lazy!
Liao Qian disapprovingly lectured Ding Meng about the earth shattering difference in taste between shell on and shell off shri couldn’t endure Liao Qian’s lecture so she deshelled one slowly She was relatively slow at peeling and was also peeling and eating one at a tirab another shrimp, she was surprised Eh, how did all the shrimp disappear?!
Qiao Yichen quietly handed her a plate which was filled with pre-peeled shriasted She used her eyes to ask, “You peeled these?”
Qiao Yichen raised his eyebrows Then he picked up another plate of shririll
Taking advantage of how no one had noticed anything, she happily started eating In reality, she didn’t like eating shrimp with shells either She was just too lazy to spend the effort She hadn’t expected that Qiao Yichen would peel all the shrimp himself Not bad, not bad at all
Since his head injury hadn’t fully recovered, Qiao Yichen didn’t eat , thethe people around hi hadn’t needed to lift a finger In any case, she could just eat whatever he cooked Qiao Yichen had also noticed this and chose to cook foods that she liked each time
After finishi+ng one round, the chefs brought overthat guests wouldduties
Overjoyed, Ding Meng asked Qiao Yichen to grab a couple pieces of fish for her since he was the closest to the grilled fish Qiao Yichen raised his eyebrows, “You’re going to eat more?”
