Chapter 248: Chapter 253: You Lack Sincerity Chapter 248: Chapter 253: You Lack Sincerity Chen Yingjie nearly exploded, “Grandpa, don’t talk nonsense, she’s my sister-in-law!”

A single mention of “sister-in-law” brought a blush to Sheng Ning’s cheeks.

Su Huai’an took in her expression thoroughly, his thoughts turning over a few times.

“Of course! Who doesn’t know she’s engaged to Living Yama! This lad really has some good fortune on his side!” Mr. Su finally understood why Shen Feihu was so biased–it would be hard not to favor someone if he had such a capable major under his command.

“Always yapping,” Mr. Su wasn’t content with letting Old Master Chen be the only one to catch attention, he shot a glare at him, then turned to Sheng Ning with a smile. “Is this Sichuan cuisine? I had it once when I was in Sichuan.”

“That’s right!” Looking at Mr. Su, the smile on Sheng Ning’s face seemed a bit forced.

Although she hid it well, in front of this group of sharp people, her facade was like thin air.

“Alright! Stop yapping and let’s start eating!” Chen Huaying was already somewhat impatient, wielding her chopsticks.

“Exactly… all this chatter is killing me!” Lu Dabao gleamed at the beef, drool nearly escapng.

It was her first time discovering Sheng Ning’s culinary skills, and she inwardly resolved. From now on, Sheng Ning was going to be her best buddy–she’d be inseparable from her.

Put plainly, she would stick to her no matter what.

Often, it’s the thin and small people who are the real food lovers, able to eat without gaining weight.

“Great!” Mr. Chen instructed Chen Yingjie to bring out a bottle of liquor. “A fifty-year Moutai, I got this on a stroke of luck, let’s open it today!”

“Excellent! I’ve been coveting this for a long time.”

After pouring drinks for the two elders, Chen Yingjie was about to start eating, when Su Hai walked in, draped in the blanket of snow from outside.

As he pushed open the door, snowflakes followed him in. Xiao Liu, along with Mr. Su’s orderly, had gone to the General Union canteen for food and hadn’t come back yet.

Chen Yingjie dutifully got up to make room, adding a seat and utensils for Su Hai. Su Huai’an stood up to give up his seat but was stopped by Su Hai.

“Uncle Su, would you take my seat?” Chen Huaying offered.

Su Hai raised an eyebrow, “You obviously don’t mean that; only after your brother set up my place did you stand up.”

“He he he… you got me!” Chen Huaying chuckled foolishly.

Mr. Su looked at his youngest son’s arrival with bewilderment, “Why are you here? Didn’t the aunt at home make food?”

“It’s not tasty.” Su Hai, eyeing the fully laid out table, naturally picked up some radish strips with his chopsticks and tasted it.

“Not bad!” he put the chopsticks down and praised, “This dish is great as a side dish for drinking; I’ll take some home in a doggy bag later.”

“Shameless!” Old Master Chen fumed with anger, his mustache bristling.

Su Hai just laughed elegantly at the comment and continued to enjoy the beef. “This is also good, it’s just that there’s not much of it; it’ll be gone in no time with this many people.”

Even Mr. Su got angry now, “You shameless, we haven’t even started eating!” Who is this? Shamelessly the first one to start eating.

“Eh? This peanut, I think I heard our President mention it before, he’s been talking about it ever since he came back from the War Wolf Rescue Team.”

Mr. Su and Old Master Chen exchanged glances, their eyes communicating silently.

‘Look at your youngest son, he’s really out of line!’
‘Indeed! It’s too much, I really regret having such a rascal!’
‘Aren’t you always praising him to high heaven?’
‘That’s because I was blind! I formally retract everything I’ve ever said.’
