Those Sweet Times
Chapter 63 Part 3
Xiang Nuan came into the living room after the movie and saw an extra person there besides Lin Chuyan's father. Even without an introduction, she could already guess that it was Lin Chuyan's mother since they looked somewhat alike. It looked like Lin Chuyan had inherited his mother's good looks.
Yue Yingying's eyes brightened when she saw Xiang Nuan. She was very pretty, even more than in the picture. Not waiting for Lin Chuyan's introduction, Yue Yingying smiled and said: “You must be Xiang Nuan? I heard Chuyan talk about you. Such a lovely and cute girl.”
So Lin Chuyan had said that Xiang Nuan was lovely and cute in front of other people! Though Xiang Nuan still thought Lin Chuyan was a nut case, she was quite happy that Lin Chuyan had praised her.
Xiang Nuan was a little embarra.s.sed: “How are you, auntie.”
“Come, sit. Let your uncle cook dinner. Your uncle is a good cook, but usually doesn't do it very often. We're very lucky today.”
Yue Yingying was a gentle and sweet person from her looks to her voice. She spoke slowly, in a relaxed manner. Xiang Nuan felt she was a kind and patient person, easy to get along with.
Lin Xueyuan had already let his secretary deliver all the ingredients he needed to cook dinner. He planned to prepare a few more dishes than usual and went into the kitchen early.
Lin Chuyan went into the kitchen after his father, leaving Xiang Nuan in the living room to talk to his mother. “Dad, is there anything I can help?”
Lin Xueyuan didn't buy his son's sudden good will: “What help can you do? You only know how to cook instant noodles.”
Lin Chuyan kept quiet and noticed green onions among the ingredients. He took the green onions and started to peel them. He at least knew how to do that.
Lin Xueyuan put on an ap.r.o.n and put all the vegetables into the wash basin to wash. He spoke as he washed the vegetables. “Chuyan, don't think I'm nagging at you. But do you know how to chase after a girl? Braiding your hair? How can you do that?”
Lin Chuyan answered while peeling off the outer skin of the green onions: “She wanted to braid my hair, what am I supposed to do?”
“She wants to do it and you just let her? You're a man, can't you be a bit more manly? That isn't the way to be nice to a girl. I'm very nice to your mother, right? If your mom wanted to braid my hair, I absolutely wouldn't let her.”
Lin Chuyan gave his father a glance: “Well, she makes you put on a facial mask and you never refuse her.”
Lin Xueyuan took out a boning knife, thrust it into the chopping board, then stared at his son: “I'll chop you up if you talk back again.”
Lin Chuyan didn't say anything in response. After peeling the green onions, he got closer to his dad and asked in a small voice: “Can I ask you something?”
“En? Go ahead.”
“You said that I'm quite shameless in front of Xiang Nuan?”
Lin Xueyuan stopped was.h.i.+ng the vegetables and a guilty expression flashed by on his face. But soon enough, he rightfully turned to look at his son and retorted: “Have I wronged you? Aren't you shameless? Don't you already know that?”
Lin Chuyan sighed: “You talked about me like this in front of the girl I like. I can't feel good anymore. Xiang Nuan was laughing at me just now. If my mom knew about this……”
Lin Xueyuan took a deep breath and tried his best not to explode. He wiped his hands dry and took out his cell phone and tapped it a few times.
Lin Chuyan heard a notification sound on his own cell phone. He checked it and found that his father had transferred 5000 RMB into his account.
It looked like his father was paying him hush money.
Lin Chuyan held his cell phone in hand and whispered to his father: “Dad, you look down upon me.”
Lin Xueyuan sent another 5000: “Is that enough?”
Lin Chuyan knew that he shouldn't push too hard. He took the money and put his cell phone away: “I'm not doing this for money. I just don't want to see you fight with mom.”
Lin Xueyuan rolled his eyes: “Get lost.”
With the forceful ‘get lost', Lin Chuyan quickly left the kitchen and went back to the living room. As he stepped into the living room, he heard his own mother screaming.
His mother seldom lost self-control like this.
He heard his mother saying: “Good heavens! So you're Xiang Daying's daughter? !”
