CHAPTER 858: CHAPTER 860: COOKING TANGYUAN

Aunt Rui also laughed, her eyes filled with gratitude and fondness, "Having a daughter is great, I also want such a caring daughter! Marriage is just a matter of time, thinking about it in advance is no big deal!"

Jinxia nodded, "Exactly, you two were just gathered together discussing what gift to give me! I wasn’t thinking about it in advance, I call it stating reasonable demands in advance!"

Mrs. He shook her head "tsk-tsk," "Look at you, your mouth can turn black into white, and turn dead into alive!"

Jinxia hummed and didn’t care, she insisted on pestering Mrs. He to agree today.

This is the advantage of being a daughter, daughters act spoiled, it’s only natural!

If it were a son, he would definitely not have this advantage, imagine a grown man acting spoiled, how spectacular and bizarre would that be?

At this moment, the door opened with a clear "click," and everyone looked over to see that it was Sheng Yan who had returned.

Sheng Yan came in, changed his shoes, looked up and found everyone looking at him, and couldn’t help but ask, "What’s going on?"

Mrs. He was just about to speak when Jinxia suddenly realized it and quickly said, "Nothing!"

She smiled, "Nothing at all, we were just discussing when you’d be back!"

While speaking, she secretly signaled to her mother with her eyes, continuing to shake her mother’s arm—

She was pleading with her mother not to reveal what had just happened!

It’s natural for her to act spoiled in front of elders, but if Sheng Yan knew, it would be so embarrassing.

Mrs. He glanced at her, as if to say—

You do realize that it was embarrassing just now, right?

Jinxia blinked her innocent big eyes, pretending not to understand what she meant.

Sly, truly a sly one!

Mrs. He shook her head helplessly, but a warmth flowed in her heart. Compared to the past when she always sang a different tune and would hardly come home once a year, she liked Jinxia’s current temperament better.

She felt a sense of comfort, indeed, letting her venture out was the right move!

The children have all grown up!

In the room, Aunt Rui was the first to react and said, "Yes, we were just discussing when you’d be back, and there you are, speaking of the devil, it’s such a coincidence."

Sheng Yan suspiciously glanced at them, feeling that something wasn’t quite right.

Sheng Yan walked over and casually said, "Is there anything to eat? I’m hungry, could you make me a snack?"

Mrs. He said, "There are still some rice dumplings in the fridge, do you want some?"

Sheng Yan nodded, "Sure, I’m not picky."

Mrs. He didn’t move, but instead gave Jinxia a look.

Jinxia was confused by her look and stood there without moving.

Mrs. He frowned, wondering why this child couldn’t read the room.

Everyone else was also watching them, and Mrs. He, with a slightly stern face, pulled her aside and whispered, "Go cook the rice dumplings!"

Jinxia suddenly realized and quickly nodded, "Okay, I’ll go!"

Mrs. He said, "When Aunt Rui and I came back today, we saw a lot of news saying your movie’s a big hit, on the verge of becoming an A-list star. Didn’t you guys say when you become A-list, you can publicly announce your relationship?

Once you publicly announce your relationship, marriage won’t be far. You have to get used to these things gradually. In the future, when you two live together, Sheng Yan doesn’t seem like someone who can cook, you’ll have to worry about that."

Jinxia listened attentively to Mrs. He’s teachings, nodding earnestly and went to the fridge to get the rice dumplings to cook.

There’s one point Mrs. He got wrong, Sheng Yan’s cooking skills are quite good, almost on par with her, he can make home-cooked meals and even better than her sometimes.

Ahem, from the limited experience of cooking meals together buying supplies with Sheng Yan, he always did the cooking.

Hurriedly entering the kitchen, Jinxia started boiling water, just waiting for it to boil so she could cook the rice dumplings.

On the other side, Mrs. He and Aunt Rui continued tidying up, Sheng Yan walked over to help a bit, but was chased out by Aunt Rui, telling him to go do something else.

This gave Sheng Yan a legitimate reason to escape, so he turned on his heels and headed straight to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Jinxia was waiting for the water to boil, and with nothing else to do, she took out her phone to scroll through Weibo.

On Weibo, the news of the cast of "Special Action" going out for dinner today had already gone viral.

This is the charm of a hit drama, when it becomes popular, everyone wants to know you, get to know you, it feels like you are the center of the world.

This feeling is very beguiling, greatly satisfying a person’s vanity, and once a star gets addicted to this feeling, they can’t get rid of it, they have to hype it up by any means possible.

If they can’t hype it up, they would fall into depression, used to being the center of attention, suddenly no one cares about them, this disparity is fatal.

As a star, you have to adjust your mindset, and not be swayed by these emotions.

While looking at her phone, her waist was suddenly embraced by someone. Looking up, she realized it was Sheng Yan.

Jinxia smiled slightly at him, in a good mood, she said, "Why did you come back so early today? Aunt Rui said you usually come back late at night, as if you lived 24/7 at the company, a workaholic."

Sheng Yan said lightly, "Before you came back, I could only focus all my attention on work. Now that you’re back, of course, it’s more important to be with you."

Jinxia let out a long "Oh—," a cunning glint flashed in her eyes, and she said with a playful smile, "Doesn’t that make me the sinner for affecting your focus on work then?"

She said, "Then maybe I shouldn’t have come back—"

Before she could finish her sentence, Sheng Yan sealed her lips, and all her words were lost between their lips and teeth.

The kiss was deep, Jinxia had never learned how to breathe during, feeling like the air in her chest cavity was being drawn out little by little, she was in a strange state of painful but addictive sensation.

Whenever Jinxia felt she couldn’t hold on any longer, Mr. Sheng would kindly let her catch a breath, and then soon he’d be on her again, not allowing her rejection.

It was unclear how long the kiss lasted, but it was the sound of the boiling water that saved her.

Jinxia finally pushed him away, glared coquettishly at him, and said breathlessly, "Behave yourself!"

Sheng Yan chuckled lightly, flicked her forehead with his slender finger, "That goes for you. Behave yourself, don’t keep saying things just to annoy me!"

Jinxia stuck her tongue out at him, "I’m not listening, la la la!"

After speaking, she immediately turned around, changing the topic, "You go out now, I’ll cook the rice dumplings for you!"

Sheng Yan raised an eyebrow, arms crossed in front of his chest, watching with interest, "I usually do the cooking, now it’s you cooking for me, I have to take a good look."
