Chapter 270 - Chapter 270: Fancy Show of Affection (1) (2/2)
Seeing that Zuo Yue was deliberately ignoring Chengxin’s existence, the old man glared at her unhappily. Zuo Yue just smiled and pretended to be stupid.
She picked up a piece of pork rib in front of her and handed it to Anhao.”Then, Sister-in-law, it smells so good. Try it.”
She was clearly slapping the old man and Chengxin in the face by calling them sister-in-law. The old man’s expression was unusually ugly. Chengxin did not expect this to happen as soon as she sat down. She was stunned for a moment before she looked up at Zuo Hancheng.
In the end, Zuo Hancheng picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it into Gu Anhao’s bowl beside him. He said gently, “”1 know you haven’t eaten well after two days of flying. Eat. This is your home.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Sister-in-law, just tell us what you like to eat. We’re family. The baby in your stomach still needs nutrition!”
Zuo Yue added.
Chengxin’s face turned pale. She looked at Zuo Hancheng in surprise, then at Gu Anhao, who was still smiling. It was obvious that Grandpa Sheng had already told her to prepare for Zuo Hancheng’s marriage, but she did not expect Gu Anhao to be pregnant.
The atmosphere at the table was a little awkward because of Zuo Yue’s continuous instigation, but this awkwardness was only directed at Chengxin. Anhao, who was originally ignored by the old man, became the least awkward one.
Zuo Hancheng was obviously very satisfied with Zuo Yue’s performance. When he turned around and asked the servant to bring another spoon for Anhao, he gave Zuo Yue a faint smile that showed that she was in a good mood.
Zuo Yue immediately continued to talk to Anhao with a smile on her face, ignoring Chengxin whose face was already very pale.
“Sister-in-law, I saw how hardworking you were when I went to A City for A few days. I was inspired by you and started to study hard after I came back.”
“Really?” Anhao looked at Zuo Yue in surprise.” I’ve never heard Hancheng mention this before.
This was the first time Anhao had addressed Zuo Hancheng in such a manner. After she finished speaking, the old man’s cold gaze swept over her.
Zuo Hancheng, however, had a hint of warmth in his eyes. He chuckled and said, ‘”‘The two of you were fighting in A City, but in the blink of an eye, your relationship became so good. Women are indeed fickle.”
“It’s all because you doted on Sister-in-law too much when she was injured. I
only quarreled with her because I was jealous. No matter what, it’s all your fault. You’re too good to Sister-in-law, making me lose my sense of existence as a sister. But it’s not Sister-in-law’s fault, it’s yours. So it’s not strange that my relationship with Sister-in-law is getting better and better!”
Zuo Yue continued to nibble on the ribs as she spoke,’”‘l’m not going to talk to vou anymore. These ribs are delicious. I want Aunt Wang to make them for me every day.”
“Pa!” The old man suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand heavily, causing everyone at the table to stop eating.
Other than Zuo Yue who continued to eat her ribs with an indifferent expression, everyone else looked at the old man’s expression.
Mother Zuo, Xu Yuan, saw that Chengxin’s face was a little pale, and seeing that the old man was really going to fly into a rage, she quickly opened her mouth to smooth things over.”Dad, Zuo Yue has always been a straightforward person. She’s about the same age as Anhao. The two girls have met before, so it’s normal for them to talk more now that they’ve reunited. I didn’t expect Miss Cheng to come today. Hancheng only returned to the Zuo family after five years. We specially held a family banquet. Once we talk about family matters, it’s easy to ignore Miss Cheng. Miss Cheng, please don’t mind.”
Hearing Xu Yuan’s words, Anhao couldn’t help but praise her mother-in-law’s intelligence.
Not only did he not offend anyone with these few words, but he also clearly expressed his position and everyone’s position, including the fact that
Chengxin was an outsider..
