Mr. Ji saw Lin Yu's attentiveness in his eyes, and he instantly understood why Ji Ya, who had always put work first, fell in love with this little brother.
Delicate, considerate, and handsome, what woman wouldn't like him?
The lights in the hall are all antique, with beautifully carved lamps covering the electric lamps, illuminating the entire hall.
After taking his seat, Lin Yu politely said thank you to the butler who poured him tea.
The butler's face was expressionless, but he was actually a little surprised. He heard that his uncle was an artist. Normally, artists are arrogant and more pretentious than people from the upper class. How could he be so polite? It's amazing.
Ji Ya sat next to Lin Yu, with a table in the middle. The tea placed on it exuded the fragrance of jasmine. Lin Yu glanced at Ji Ya subconsciously and sent a distress signal to her. What should he say after a while?
Ji Ya blinked, guess what.
Anyway, everyone is here, and you can see that my grandfather and my aunt don’t know how to eat people, right? So what are you nervous about?
Mr. Ji looked at the interaction between the two people's eyes and took it as a flirtation. He couldn't help but smile, put down the newspaper in his hand, and asked calmly.
"How old are you?"
"twenty-three."
"I'm still young as I just graduated, but it's amazing that I can reach my current position in just half a year."
The fact that Ji Ya is attracted to him is enough for Mr. Ji to recognize him. As long as Ji Ya proposes marriage, Mr. Ji will immediately hand over the property rights of his ancestral home to the two of them. He will follow his little daughter to a mountain villa to enjoy a secluded life.
There are just some questions that need to be asked and the process needs to be walked through.
"How many people are in the family?"
"I... am an orphan."
As soon as these words came out, he thought they would be surprised, but Lin Yu was so nervous that he didn't dare to look at Mr. Ji.
As everyone knows, before Lin Yu came, all his information had already been in the hands of Mr. Ji and Ji Xiaowan. After all, it was his precious granddaughter (niece) who was looking for a man, so he must understand it clearly.
Ordinary people would think that an orphan has no father, no mother, no support, and no background. Why should a toad eat swan meat? But Mr. Ji and Ji Xiaowan have different views on Lin Yu. They only think that he is a very capable person who can still find his own way in such a difficult start in life.
Ji Xiaowan listened bored and called the housekeeper to come over and push her wheelchair: "Today my niece and son-in-law come to visit for the first time. I'm going to make you a Ji family's signature delicacies. They are all used to entertain the family. I hope you don't dislike it."
After saying that, he asked the housekeeper to push him to the kitchen.
Ji Ya and Mr. Ji felt numb in their hearts. They felt numb.
The nearly four or five small matching decorations in the kitchen are gone.
There is a reason why they are so worried. In the past, Ji Xiaowan could almost burn a villa to ashes by boiling water, and it was an automatic kettle! ! Who knows how outrageous her destructive power is?
"Didn't you invite the chef to your home today?"
"Your Aunt Xiaowan said that if you have distinguished guests, you have to cook one of the family's signature dishes yourself, so you didn't ask the chef to help." Mr. Ji's face was obviously a little worried.
He originally planned to eat out! But Ji Xiaowan disagrees! !
"Um, how about we contact the decoration team now?"
"And fire trucks."
Lin Yu couldn't help but wonder when he listened to the strange conversation between the two.
"What are you doing? Are you setting off fireworks? Or is there a nuclear bomb testing site nearby?"
"..." Ji Ya and Mr. Ji looked at each other, not knowing how to explain Ji Xiaowan's destructive power to Lin Yu.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." Fortunately, the kitchen is far away from the hall, and in order to protect the safety of the family, Mr. Ji installed bulletproof glass in the partition walls of each room, and just painted a layer of wall plaster to make it invisible. Just come out.
If it really explodes, the hall should be able to... emmm, escape the disaster.
"I heard that you are working as an artist with our Xiaoya company?" Mr. Ji continued to check the household registration book.
After talking about the lines he had picked up on the way, Mr. Ji nodded with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that you are now capable of going out on your own. It seems that you will be able to make a career soon."
Lin Yu always felt that these words of praise sounded so irritating. After all, he did not open the studio by himself. It was probably due to a guilty conscience...
But there is no way, in order to cooperate with Ji Ya's acting, she has to pretend even if she bites the bullet.
…
Mr. Ji still has many things to ask his future grandson-in-law. After all, he is his most beloved granddaughter, but he needs to find a good family. Don't close your eyes tightly even if you are under Jiuquan. What should he do if his precious granddaughter is bullied? ?
Ji Ya snorted and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, Ayu just arrived here on a plane. You have been asking questions for him to answer since you entered the door. Are you really not going to let him rest?"
Grandpa loves her granddaughter the most. When she said this, Mr. Li had no intention of continuing to ask.
Anyway, everything depends on her granddaughter’s decision. Money can’t buy her granddaughter’s happiness!
Just halfway through saying this, the hall fell into silence for a while. Everyone was trying to come up with new topics, but at this moment, there was an explosion from the kitchen not far away.
The three of them immediately stood up and headed for the kitchen. They saw Ji Xiaowan holding a freshly plucked chicken in her hand, with a gray look on her face. On the side, the oil in the pot was so hot that it might burn at any time.
Just when I thought of this, there was a bang, and the sound of flames erupted from the oil pan.
The three of them were stunned. Only Lin Yu stepped forward immediately, took the lid of the pot, rushed forward, and quickly put out the fire.
The butler, who was standing at the door just now, was stunned. The plate in his hand fell to the ground with a clear and crisp sound, and the four of them looked back at the same time.
"Aunt Liang, don't be scary now, I thought something exploded again!"
The three of them looked at Ji Xiaowan speechlessly at the same time. "Okay, okay, okay, you almost blew up the kitchen. How dare you say such things? Why do you have the nerve to blame others?"
"Okay, stop working so hard, just go out to eat."
It could be seen that Ji Xiaowan tried her best to make up for her mistake, so she took out her mobile phone and started to book a hotel.
He coughed awkwardly, trying to cover up his embarrassment.
Mr. Ji and Ji Ya both echoed Ji Xiaowan's words, fearing that she would suddenly regret it and continue to show off her skills to show respect for Lin Yu's first visit.
By that time, it is estimated that not only the kitchen will have to be worried about, but also the Ji family's old house may not be able to be saved!
Don't do it! It’s not like you don’t have money to eat out! !
"Don't mention it." Lin Yu said suddenly and looked around at the ingredients that were ready on the table. It looked like it was such a waste to waste such valuable ingredients? So he volunteered.
"Leave it to me."
The three members of the Ji family looked at Lin Yu neatly at the same time.
"Can you really do that?"
"Artists can cook? Interesting!"
