Chapter 558 - Dont you dare use any trick (1/2)
They did not discuss it any further once she asked for the time to think it over. Mr Long changed into another topic, this time about the migration of the team from the Full Moon Corp to the main company. It should be completed within this month so all the projects could work perfectly without any interruption and problem.
Ryn changed her seat beside Mrs Long so they would not interrupt the discussion. With Mr Long has to return to the main company while Jeremy got busy for his last tour as a group. Later, he told his family with a straight first, he would just write songs and nurture singers. He would no longer sing in public.
”Why don't we walk in the garden?” Mrs Long suggested. Her mother-in-law was having a nap now, too exhausted to wait for the lunch. With the car show just now, the Cook started to cook later than usual, hence their lunch would not be ready at the usual time.
Ryn agreed. She helped Mrs Long to stand and together they walked to the garden at the side of the building. The garden was filled with all sort of flowers and mostly were roses in every colour and with or without fragrants.
”I wih you could do the reception here,” Mrs Long murmured as they walked between the rose bushes. They also had to walk underneath the roses arch and the elder woman looked at it wishfully.
”Aunty, you can have a party to celebrate your anniversary with uncle,” Ryn suggested. She could picture how romantic the party would be with fairy lights in between the roses at the arch. Maybe heart shaped ball or light ball all over the place as decoration? Even the pool, they could fill it with balloon or rose petals.
If a lazy her could picture so many things for a party, she has no doubt a party planner would have a lot of ideas.
She accompanied the elder woman walking around, enjoying the nature. Then, when a maid came and informed them politely that lunch was ready, they retraced back their walk into the building.
The men were already in the dining room, waiting for them.
Jeremy stood up and pulled the chair for his girlfriend while Mr Long did the same for his wife. They waited for the Dowager to arrive.
It took almost five minutes before the elder reached the dining room. Ryn automatically stood up to show her respect while Jeremy stood up to pull the chair for his grandmother.
The butler, once he saw everyone has taken their seat, quickly ordered the maids to bring in the food. The maids came one by one bringing steaming food for the family. They arranged everything on the lazy Susan but not the rice. For the rice, the maid would help by bringing the bowl of rice to each of them. For drink, the family has a choice of osmathus tea and coffee. They could have it hot or cold with ice.
Despite Mika was not there, some of the dishes were healthy and low fat. The Dowager needed to eat less oily and less fat food because of her age and health. But for Ryn, there was meat dish with double portion. However, the helpers were hoping the healthy dishes could lure Ryn to eat some.
They watched the episodes and wished they could help changing Ryn's eating habit. And hopingly, today was the day.
Jeremy twitched his lips when he saw the dishes. One of them seemed to be for Ryn with the meat almost overflowing the plate. He turned the rotating tray until the meat dish stopped right in front of Ryn. ”Yours,” he said cheekily.
Ryn pinched his side for the tease. How could he do this right in front of the Dowager and his parents? The Dowager hasn't even taken any dish yet to taste and he already turned the tray? This was not funny at all.
The Dowager lifted her chopsticks and took some of the potato dish that was right in front of her. She nodded her approval as she chewed it slowly. And then, she took some more and put it onto her rice bowl. Then, she turned it to get some of the steam fish flesh.
Once the Dowager started to eat, the others lifted their chopstick and started to eat.
Of course, Ryn's first pick was the meat dish. She closed her eyes and sighed happily as she chewed the tender meat. Of course, she did not make a move to any of the vegetable dishes, which the Dowager and Mrs Long noticed unhappily.
”Eat some vegetables,” the Dowager ordered as she turned the turntable so a dish of brocolli stopped right in front of Ryn. ”Don't you dare use any trick.”
