Chu Jiu paused for a moment, then looked at Long Ting. He had a stern face and looked at her with equal seriousness. His tone became harsh as she looked at him: \u201cWhat, are you not listening to me?\u201d \u201d<\/p>\n

Or, don\u2019t you want to help me taste these foods and see if they\u2019re fresh?\u201d<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu glanced at the fruit and pastries the housekeeper had brought and respectfully replied, \u201cYoung Master, the fruit at President Ouyang\u2019s house is absolutely fresh, and the pastries are absolutely delicious.\u201d<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t even consider how picky President Ouyang was.<\/p>\n

The food at her house was absolutely fresh and absolutely delicious.<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi said, \u201cWe have several refrigerators at home. My mother has her own dedicated refrigerator. What she eats is all special; we eat differently from her.\u201d<\/p>\n

This was true.<\/p>\n

His father\u2019s cooking for his mother was exceptionally refined, fragrant, and delicious, with a different dish every day.<\/p>\n

When he cooked for them, he would just make a couple of simple home-style dishes. The ingredients were fresh, but not as elaborate as what he made for his mother. Fortunately, his father\u2019s cooking skills were excellent; even with just a couple of simple dishes, they would eat so much that they would pour the sauce into their rice bowls to mix with their rice.<\/p>\n

Since Zhan Chi said so, Chu Jiu had no choice but to try all the fruits and pastries. After<\/p>\n

eating her fill, Chu Jiu felt she was quite full.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow was it?\u201d<\/p>\n

Long Ting asked her.<\/p>\n

\u201cYoung Master, the fruits were very fresh, and the pastries were delicious.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu was straightforward, and her answer was direct, without using many flowery words. Long<\/p>\n

Ting hummed in agreement. \u201cSit down and eat with us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYoung Master, no, I\u2019m your bodyguard.\u201d<\/p>\n

Long Ting glanced at her, but this time he wasn\u2019t angry. He said calmly, \u201cIf you don\u2019t like it, sit to the side. Find a shady spot, don\u2019t sit where the sun shines. If you block the light, it\u2019ll be darker under the pavilion.\u201dZhan Chi thought to himself: \u201cBrother Ting is clearly worried about Ninth Sister, afraid she\u2019ll get sunburned, yet he says she\u2019ll block the light. That\u2019s such a big pavilion, how wide is Ninth Sister anyway? She can\u2019t possibly block the light!<\/p>\n

Besides, their tea is excellent, their fruit is absolutely fresh, and their pastries are incredibly delicious. Brother Ting letting Ninth Sister try them is practically feeding her, afraid she\u2019ll get thirsty or hungry while on duty.<\/p>\n

Putting everything else aside, just the pastries alone\u2014Ninth Sister tried every single one, so she\u2019s not hungry at all, not to mention all the fruit she ate.<\/p>\n

These two are going to have a lot to argue about.<\/p>\n

\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d<\/p>\n

Chu Jiu replied, not discouraged by Long Ting\u2019s unpleasant words. She seemed used to it and actually chose a corner seat where she wouldn\u2019t block the sunlight from entering the pavilion.<\/p>\n

Long Ting, in a good mood, picked up his cup of tea and said to Zhan Chi, \u201cFifth Brother, it\u2019s been a long time since I, your brother Ting, have been able to leisurely enjoy this tea and scenery.\u201d<\/p>\n

He looked at the scenery outside the pavilion, \u201cThe scenery in your courtyard is really nice, of course, it can\u2019t compare to our Fengchen Manor.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi said, \u201cMy Youyou Manor isn\u2019t bad either.\u201d<\/p>\n

As if he didn\u2019t have a manor.<\/p>\n

Long Ting laughed, \u201cThat\u2019s true, how long has it been since you went back to your hometown?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow that I\u2019m working, I\u2019m not as free as when I was in school. Every winter and summer vacation, I pack my bags and fly back. My parents don\u2019t dare to say anything. If my great-grandmother calls, my parents have to rush us back.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow I can only go back during the New Year, I guess. I don\u2019t hear from my great-grandmother anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zhan Chi stopped there.<\/p>\n

He missed his great-grandmother.<\/p>\n

If his great-grandmother were still alive, he would definitely be back in Dongguan at his age, working for the Zhan Group, helping his older brother with his worries.<\/p>\n

His second uncle\u2019s two older brothers had gone back to Dongguan much earlier.<\/p>\n
