Chapter 104 - Take it or leave it (2/2)
”Yes.”
”And with everything else, reschedule them. I will personally deal with the advertising for the next release when I come back.”
”Alright.”
Lena hit the end button on her earphones. ”Lexi, Call James.”
Lexi: Calling James.
James picked up quickly. ”Hello, Miss. Shen.”
”Change of plans for tomorrow. I am going to visit Gary tomorrow. Can you pick up the items I wanted to bring to him at my apartment? Bring them with you tomorrow. I will be staying at my parents tonight.”
”I can do that.”
Lena hung up on him and sped her way to the mansion. When she reached the place, Aunt Mary came out to help Lena carried her baked goods. Aunt Mary was pleased with Lena's skill. She did not disclose specifically that Madam Li helped her with it.
She put all but one of them on the table. She took a small box and carried it up back to her room. She placed the box on her desk and head to take a quick shower. She had been baking all morning and smells like them.
She dried her hair using a hair drying and went down. It was too late to eat lunch and too early to have dinner, but Aunt Mary was still cooking something for her parents. They must be hungry from their long trip. Lena was helping Aunt Mary cooked a few dishes. It has been a long time since she cooked with her.
Aunt Mary was still nagging about Lena's cooking. ”You're doing this wrong. Cut this smaller. You need to make it look like this.” Who cares about the look, as long as it tastes good!!
”If you don't practice well, you won't be able to please your future mother-in-law.” Aunt Mary spoke.
”Aiya… It's ok. As long as my husband knows how to cook!” Lena joked. Of course, second leads know how to cook, don't they always?
”Husband cook?! Where can you find a husband who can cook?!” A strong voice could be heard from the doorway. Lena turned and saw her pretty mother standing there. ”Let me tell you, your dad is the best man out there and he cannot cook.”
”Mom!” Lena rushed in for a big hug.
”Cook?! I can boil eggs!” Shen Mao bragged.
”Boiled eggs? Even a toddler can do that.”
Shen Mao complained to his sweet daughter. ”Lili! Look at your mother. She has been grouchy so much lately!”
”Maybe mom is pregnant?”
Shen Mao eye's perked up. ”Milli, are you ---”
Shen Milli knuckled his head and Lena's. ”Pregnant?! Who would get pregnant if her husband can only feed her boiled eggs?!” She walked off to their room and left them.
Shen Mao quickly followed his wife. Lena laughed at her loving parents. She wished she will have a long-lasting marriage like them.
