Chapter 389: Stay

Gu Xiao only needed to look at Chu An’s expression to know what he was thinking. She secretly raised her eyebrows and smiled, but she didn’t say anything.

Mrs Chu, who had suggested this, glanced at Chu An. “Xiaoxiao hasn’t even said anything. Why are you interrupting?”

“That’s right. If Xiao An wants to go back and doesn’t want to stay in the Chu residence, then he can go back himself. Anyway, Xiaoxiao wants to stay in the Chu residence for the holidays,” Sister-in-law Chu chimed in.

Chu Zi watched this scene as if he was watching a good show. He had no intention of helping Chu An at all. After all, he naturally had to satisfy his wife’s desires.

Furthermore… he liked to see Chu An suffer.

With this thought in mind, a glint flashed across Chu Zi’s eyes. He leaned against the sofa and looked calm.

Seeing that the two of them had refuted him, Chu An immediately looked at Gu Xiao, hoping that Gu Xiao would agree to his decision.

However, after meeting Chu An’s gaze, Gu Xiao looked away, unwilling to meet Chu An’s eyes.

She smiled at Mrs Chu. “Then I’ll listen to Auntie and stay in the Chu family residence for the holidays.”

Recently, Chu An had really gone overboard. She felt that it was better to let him settle down.

Actually, Gu Xiao also knew that Chu An was becoming more and more overboard because of her indulgence. It was because she couldn’t really reject Chu An.

But since she couldn’t reject Chu An, she could only use this method to make Chu An settle down and let her rest for a period of time.

Thinking of this, the smile in Gu Xiao’s eyes intensified.

When Chu An heard this, he immediately wilted. If he had a pair of ears on his head, they would probably have already drooped down on his head.

In contrast to Chu An’s situation, it was Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu.

They did not expect Gu Xiao to agree so easily. While the two of them were happy, they also knew that Gu Xiao was willing to stay and starting to acknowledge the Chu family from the bottom of her heart.

This realization made Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu happy.

Mrs Chu patted Gu Xiao’s hand and stood up from the sofa. “It’s a good thing that Xiaoxiao can stay! The kitchen probably hasn’t started cooking yet. 1’11 cook today! I’ll make a delicious meal for Xiaoxiao!”

“Alright! Then I’ll be your assistant!” Sister-in-law Chu added.

As soon as Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu finished speaking, a hint of surprise flashed across Mr Chu and the others’ eyes.

Even Chu Zi, who was originally lazy, straightened his back and secretly gave Gu Xiao a thumbs up.

After Mrs Chu and her daughter-in-law finished speaking, they ignored the people in the living room and walked towards the kitchen excitedly.

After the two of them turned the corner and completely entered the kitchen, Gu Xiao looked at Chu Zi, who had just given her a thumbs up.

She had naturally tasted Mrs Chu’s cooking when Mrs Chu asked Chu Zi to bring them things. It was indeed very good. However, she did not know much about his sister-in-law’s cooking.

Chu Zi seemed to have seen through Gu Xiao’s thoughts and answered.

“Mom’s culinary skills are not bad, but your sister-in-law’s culinary skills are comparable to Mom’s.” It could even be said that Sister-in-law Chu’s culinary skills were slightly better than Mrs Chu’s.

However, although Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu’s culinary skills were not bad, it was not often that they could taste their cooking.

After all, regardless of whether it was Mrs Chu or Sister-in-law Chu, they only treated cooking as a form of fun. If they were in a good mood, they would cook. If they were unhappy and had no interest, no matter what others said, they would not cook. It could be said that they were very principled.

Mr Chu and Chu Zi were also willing to dote on the two of them. As long as the two of them were unwilling to cook, they would not force the two of them and fully support their decision.

It was just that they had not eaten it for a long time, so it was still a slightly precious chance for them.

Mr Chu glanced at the kitchen and saw that Mrs Chu was really nowhere to be seen, so he turned to look at Gu Xiao.

“I wonder if Xiaoxiao can cook?”

When Mr Chu said this, it immediately attracted Chu An’s dissatisfied gaze.

After sensing Chu An’s gaze, Mr Chu reacted. It seemed a little inappropriate to say this now, as if he was forcing Gu Xiao to go to the kitchen.

Mr Chu naturally didn’t have such thoughts at all. It was just that he had never chatted with the younger generation. When he interacted with Chu An and Chu Zi, other than work, he only nagged. For a moment, he really couldn’t think of anything else to talk about with Gu Xiao.

Hence, he could only continue the topic just now and ask..
