Chapter 73: Spending the Night at Chen Xueqi's House

“Uncle, I know what I’m doing. That’s enough for today.”

“Alright.”

Zhao Xian knew that such matters required one to come to terms with them on their own, so he didn’t say anything more.

He turned and left the secret room.

“Xiao Fan, what exactly did you go through to become so strong…?”

Thinking of that despair-inducing figure,

Zhao Jing felt the urge to understand a man for the first time… “Xueqi, eat more.”

Xiao Fan put a piece of chicken breast into Chen Xueqi’s bowl.

You are what you eat, after all.

“You eat more too…”

Watching the two of them openly display affection,

Chen Jianye’s forehead showed a few dark lines.

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have invited Xiao Fan to his house for dinner.

He had only been polite.

He didn’t expect Xiao Fan to be so shameless, taking advantage of the situation and directly pulling Chen Xueqi’s hand into his house.

“Uncle Chen, your chef’s cooking tastes pretty good.

But compared to mine, it’s still a little bit off.”

Xiao Fan commented as he ate.

“Wow, Brother Xiao Fan is amazing!”

Before Chen Jianye could speak, Chen Xueqi looked at Xiao Fan with admiration.

“Enough!”

Chen Jianye slapped the table and stood up.

He couldn't take it anymore; this kid was feeding them dog food in his house, and now he was bragging in front of him. He should know that his chef was a five-star head chef.

Even in the entire Jiang Province, there were only a few people who could consistently beat him in cooking.

“Kid, it’s fine if you try to fool my daughter with those words, but you think you can fool me?”

Looking at Chen Xueqi’s gaze towards a certain person, Chen Jianye had a headache.

How could a shrewd person like him have such a love-struck daughter?

Today, he had to expose Xiao Fan to make him lose some face.

“Dad, how can you talk like that… No matter what, we’ll be family very soon…”

Chen Xueqi looked at Chen Jianye with some dissatisfaction.

“You…”

Chen Jianye looked at his daughter, too angry to speak.

His little cotton jacket was not just leaky; it was practically… “Since Uncle Chen doesn’t believe me, then let me try.”

Xiao Fan pulled out a napkin, slowly wiped his mouth, and then stood up.

“Alright, alright, I’d like to see what you’re capable of.”

Chen Jianye was so angry he laughed. Originally, for his daughter’s sake, he hadn’t intended to make things difficult for Xiao Fan.

He didn’t expect him to walk right into it.

Two hours later… “Cheers! My dear nephew, I knew you were capable from a young age… This cooking, it’s beyond words!”

Chen Jianye’s face was flushed, and he swayed as he put his arm around Xiao Fan’s shoulder.

“Oh, it’s nothing, this is all the result of my usual biding my time.”

Xiao Fan raised his glass and drank it all.

“Ah~ My dear nephew is too modest. Since eating your cooking today, I’ve realized that I’ve lived half my life in vain.

Every dish is a work of art.

Taking a bite is like being in heaven, making one feel absolutely blissful.”

“But you didn’t say that before.”

To be honest, Xiao Fan still wanted to see the somewhat tsundere Chen Jianye.

So many compliments made him a little embarrassed instead.

“Don’t mind those details. Come to the house for dinner more often when you have time.”

Chen Xueqi could barely watch the scene unfold.

Are you asking Xiao Fan to come over for dinner? You're just craving his cooking!

“Alright, definitely when I have time.”

Xiao Fan replied, after all, he was his future father-in-law.

After they clinked glasses for a while longer… “Nephew, then it’s settled…”

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Jianye slumped onto the table and fell into a deep sleep.

“I’m really sorry, Brother Xiao Fan, my dad isn’t usually like this…”

“It’s fine, just have someone help him to bed to sleep it off later.”

Chen Jianye was indeed quite interesting, no wonder he and Xiao Taian were cut from the same cloth.

Looking at the sleeping Chen Jianye, a mischievous smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Xiao Fan’s mouth.

This scene was coincidentally seen by Chen Xueqi.

“Xueqi, look how late it is. How about you let me stay the night?”

Hearing this, Chen Xueqi’s face flushed with shyness.

“But… your house is just nearby…”

“Are you really heartless enough to make me walk home while drunk?”

Xiao Fan stood up, pretending to sway.

He knew that at this moment, Chen Xueqi only needed an excuse.

“Alright, if that’s the case, then I’ll head back…”

“Wait… why don’t you stay at my house tonight?”

After saying this, Chen Xueqi felt her face burning.

“Xueqi, I knew you were the best.”

Xiao Fan stepped forward and kissed the beauty’s flushed little cheek.

This caused Chen Xueqi to cover her face and run away.

After helping his future father-in-law to bed, Xiao Fan casually closed the door.

“One really shouldn’t be too honest. He didn’t even know how to use inner energy to dispel the alcohol.”

Xiao Fan shook his head. Actually, he couldn’t drink much either, but who made him so clever?

“But this is good too; it gives me an opportunity.”

Xiao Fan turned and walked into a fragrant room.

The bedroom had a pink theme, and with that familiar scent, this was definitely the right place.

Xiao Fan took off his restraints and slipped into the covers.

“It smells so good.”

Not long after, Chen Xueqi entered the bedroom and immediately saw Xiao Fan occupying her bed.

“You’re bad… I already made the bed for you, hurry up and get out.”

Saying this, Chen Xueqi tried to pull Xiao Fan out of bed.
