Chapter 270: My Cousin Will Probably Get Drunk Tonight
Ji Yang scoffed as she could not be bothered.
Mu Siyin laughed. How stubborn!
“By the way, Cuz, why did Grandpa call you back so suddenly? What happened?”
Lu Jingchen paused. Then, he raised his head to look at her. “I was about to talk to you regarding this matter. It’s… He has heard about the engagement between Gi Yifan and Mu Xingyu and was wondering what happened between you and Gu Yifan. He even asked you to go see him within the next two days.”
Mu Siyin was stunned. “How did he find out?”
Lu Jingchen replied resignedly, “We have so many helpers at home, so they’ve been gossiping about it. He overhead and he seemed… quite angry.”
Mu Siyin blinked. “Then… how about his health?”
“Same old. By the way, I think you shouldn’t tell him about Shi Beiyu.”
Mu Siyin frowned. “Why?”
She actually wanted to bring Shi Beiyu along to visit her grandpa.
Lu Jingchen looked her in the eye and said, “You will know when you go back.”
Mu Siyin was helpless to the situation and could only nod. “Alright.”
After lunch, Ji Yang leaned back against the chair and looked at Lu Jingchen, who was wiping his mouth. “Lu, go do the dishes.”
Lu Jingchen asked furiously, “Why me?!”
How could she ask a man like him to do the dishes?
Ji Yang suddenly turned to Xiang Qiuci and said, “Qiuci, you know what? There’s a saying that a man who knows how to do the dishes can take care of his family really well and will also be a really good husband to his wife. If a girl marries such a man, she is sure to be blessed. ”
Xiang Qiuci only smiled in response, not wanting to break the ‘harmonious’ atmosphere between the two.
Lu Jingchen instantly stood up from his chair. “What’s so hard about doing the dishes?”
As Lu Jingchen took the dirty dishes to the kitchen, Mu Siyin could no longer hold in her laughter. She raised her hand and slapped it against Ji Yang playfully. “Yangyang, not even my auntie has ordered him around like this. You are the first!”
Ji Yang scoffed. “Unlucky for him to get on my bad side. Besides, other than him, who else could I order around?”
After great effort, Lu Jingchen was finally done with the dishes. He came out, only to see the three of them leisurely watching TV while chatting happily on the sofa.
He almost lost it when he noticed Ji Yang’s arrogant smile.
However, since Xiang Qiuci was still around, he could not lose his temper. Hence, he swallowed his anger and walked over, where he said to Xiang Qiuci, “Qiuci, would you… like to go for a stroll with me this afternoon?”
Xiang Qiuci was troubled by his invitation. From how Lu Jingchen was acting the whole time, she could tell that he was definitely interested in her.
However…
She gave out a sigh and said to him, “Since we just ate, why don’t we just take a stroll downstairs?”
Lu Jingchen got so excited upon hearing her response.
“That’s a great idea! The view downstairs… is great too!”
Xiang Qiuci nodded as she stood up. “Let’s go.”
Seeing that, Ji Yang said, “Your efforts in washing the dishes actually paid off.”
Lu Jingchen gritted his teeth and threw Ji Yang a look. Then, he happily went downstairs with Xiang Qiuci.
Upon hearing the door closed, Mu Siyin let out a long sigh. “My cousin will probably get drunk tonight.”
Ji Yang raised her eyebrow and snorted. “He was the one who wanted to go for someone out of his league. If it were me, I would definitely go for someone like Leng Jiuchen too.”
Mu Siyin looked at Ji Yang in surprise.
When Ji Yang saw how Mu Siyin was looking at her, she knew that Mu Siyin’s thoughts must be running wild. Ji Yang said helplessly, “Hey, don’t overthink. I was just making an a.n.a.logy. Even if Leng Jiuchen comes for me, I won’t dare to accept him.”
Mu Siyin supported her chin with her hand and continued staring at Ji Yang. “What are you looking for in a man, then? Let me help you find someone.”
