Chapter 214 - Stealing The Meatball (1/2)
Yue Wan could not restrain her giggles as she listened to their words. This was the feeling of a family! She felt comfortable, unknowingly her heart ached for Xiao Hua's presence.
Cough cough! Yue Xiang sent a deathly stare at his father and warned him to close his mouth as his image was being tarnished before his cute little sister.
Xiao Ran quickly changed the topic by asking Yue Wan about her exams: ”What is the next plan after graduating high school? Hightstudy or ... marriage.”
She nudged her elbow saying the last word.
”Marriage! Nha! Nah! My Little Wan is only sixteen years old, still young. She needs to learn more.” Yue Yeager quickly rebuked subconsciously.
Yue Xiang rolled his eyes and sneered: ”What about that fiance list of yours you were working on the past few days?”
Yue Wan chuckled. Her Big Brother was secretly evil!
Gritting his teeth, Yue Yeager masked his annoyance. He playfully slapped his son's shoulder with a little strength: ”What are you saying? With my Little Wan's beauty and intelligence, countless alliances are coming to our house. I was momentarily in a daze looking at those lists of names. Haha! I don't know what to do with them.. hahaha! There is still a long way to go before marriage.”
Yue Wan sweatdropped with a forced smile.
Yue Xiang yelped in pain from his shoulder and covered his face with palm in embarrassment. 'His father is totally shameless!'
”Ahem! Ahem!”
Clearing his throat, Elder Xiao said: ”Ran, check whether our lunch is ready?”
At that time, Advisor Yu came personally and informed them the food was ready.
Hearing the word food, the little guy in the basket had his black ears twitched for a second.

---Dinner room----
The dining hall and kitchen were only partitioned by a wall, separating the rooms from the great hall.
Yue Wan looked at the dishes and the soup that filled the table and she became speechless. Every dish was exquisite, they had; Golden Shark Fin Soup, Five Flavored Abalone, Manchu Pearl Meatballs, First Class Ginseng, Garlic Oyster Tempura, Plum Champagne Float, and Gregor Cheese Puff.
”The dinner is luxurious. You've prepared too much,” Yue Yeager exclaimed.
Elder Xiao had a stern face as he waved his hand: ”It's nothing much.”
Pushing Yue Wan to sit next to Elder Xiao, Xiao Ran giggled: ”We don't know what you like to eat so grandpa invited one of the sous chefs of Asia, Mr.Luke, to make all of these signature dishes. Look at how skinny you are! You need to eat a lot to be a little plum here.”
She said while poking Yue Wan's tummy recalling Hua's last phone call.
It was indeed sumptuous, they also have the eight signature dishes of City A. Furthermore, the dishes all complemented one another, showing the effort put into making the whole dinner.
The classic servant carefully served the appetizer of scallops with white truffles to them.
