Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Ji looked back and saw Wang Yi at the entrance.
Wang Yi said that he was going to the research institute first, but Su Ji felt that he did not look like he had just returned from the research institute. Instead, he looked like he had gotten a makeover.
In the distance, the built-in electric oven sounded.
For a moment, the room was filled with the fragrance of milk and the strong smell of dessert.
The servant brought out the pastry that Du Meilan had baked. Du Meilan took off her apron and immediately changed from a gentle mother to a strong woman. “Try it. It looks okay. It’s made with egg white. It’s low fat. Girls can eat more.”
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Wang Yi and paused for a moment before a smile appeared on her lips. “Wang Yi? I’ve heard from Officer Wang that you’re back. How have you been these few years?”
Du Meilan usually had two expressions on her face, one was calm and the other was a stiff smile. But her smile at the moment was bright.
There were two obvious dimples at the corner of her mouth, making her look exceptionally young.
Wang Yi was stunned.
Pei Huai glanced at him. “Madam Du is asking you a question.”
Only then did Wang Yi come back to his senses. “Everything is fine.”
At this time, Du Meilan’s dimples were no longer there, and there was a polite smile on her face.
She nodded.
The servants placed the meringue on exquisite plates and distributed them to the guests.
Wang Yi tried a piece. It was delicious.
Xu Mingzhi chatted softly with Du Meilan. “So it’s Officer Wang’s grandson. He seems great.”
Du Meilan also praised him. “He’s also very independent. Officer Wang’s daughter-in-law passed away early. I have liked him since he was a boy and said I wanted to be his godmother, but he said no.”
Xu Mingzhi teased, “it’s his loss.”
Du Meilan said, “he has deep feelings for his mother. I don’t have another daughter. Otherwise, I would definitely make him my son-in-law.”
Wang Yi looked at them. It was unknown if he had heard their conversation. Xu Mingzhi noticed his gaze and raised her eyebrows. “Don’t always think about the children. Think about yourself.”
Du Meilan smiled and shook her head, not knowing if she could.
The fans were used to watching the livestream every day. Since the guests were traveling back to the country, the livestream was paused for two days. The fans were bored.
On the third day, the fans were waiting to see Su Ji and CEO Pei’s lovey-dovey relationship. They did not know about their relationship previously, so they missed out on many sweet details.
In the end, the livestream never started. The official website’s announcement of the suspension of the show was trending on the Internet.
They didn’t say the specific reason, only that they needed to change a few things, and there was no date for when it would resume. It was very likely that it would be canceled.
The fans complained, but there were also a few calmer netizens who supported the suspension of the program.
[ “Although I can’t bear to part with my husbands and wives, I support the decision. The trip to the Z Sea was indeed too dangerous. They completely disregarded the safety of the guests. I look forward to the change!” ]
[ “Maybe it has something to do with CEO Pei’s injury. By the way, we haven’t found the culprit who caused that, right?” ]
[ ‘When the fingerprints are out, make sure to announce it! This kind of person who harmed team members had to get out of the entertainment industry!!” ] The Pei family’s breakfast table was full today. It was as lively as the New Year.
There were two types of breakfast, Chinese and Western.
The smell of delicious food filled the air.
Du Meilan was holding a cup of black coffee. On the table was the letter from the lawyer.
“Su Ji, you asked them to modify the contract. Otherwise, according to one of the clauses, you wouldn’t have been able to get even 1% of the compensation.”
Su Ji knew which one she was referring to. However, right now, she was more concerned about the culprit who injured her boyfriend’s arm.
Pei Qingshen asked the butler to pass the braised pork buns he bought from his morning walk to Su Ji. “Try this. It’s from a new breakfast shop nearby. Business looks good, but I wonder if it’s really delicious.”
Su Ji bit off half of it and chewed. She frowned. “To be honest, it’s a little greasy.”
Pei Huai picked up the remaining half of her food.
“Fortunately, I didn’t buy much. I knew it was just a gimmick.” Pei Qingshen shook his head and looked at the youtiao that Su Ji had soaked in soy milk and hadn’t finished. He was a little worried. “Su Ji, is it not to your liking? Why are you eating so little?”
Pei Huai and Xu Mingzhi both knew that Su Ji had a hard time eating. Unless she was really hungry or saw something she really liked to eat, she would eat slowly. Her stomach would not wake up in the morning, and at night, it would be bloated. She never weighed more than 80 pounds which made her mother and Pei Huai nervous.
However, the other people in the Pei family did not understand and thought that she had a bad appetite.
Pei Xi seemed to have thought of something, “Su Ji…are you the same as me some time ago, when I had no appetite for anything and felt like vomiting whenever I smelled meat?”
Du Meilan’s expression was both surprised and happy. “Is that so, baby? Do you want to see a doctor?”
Su Ji instantly understood what they thought, but she was probably more accurate than a doctor in this aspect.
“No, I’m nauseated. It’s not the same,” she answered firmly.
Pei Huai also protected her. “She has always been like this when she eats. Don’t give her pressure, she can eat more.”
“Is that so…” Pei Xi smiled dryly. “Then don’t feel pressured!”
Du Meilan’s gaze swept over Xu Mingzhi, only to notice that she was looking at her with a smile. At the same time, the corners of her mouth twitched. Du Meilan’s forehead dripped with a drop of cold sweat, and she quickly moved a plate of dessert to her. “Try this.”
Xu Mingzhi gritted her teeth and replied, “thank you.”
With Xu Mingzhi around, no one at the dining table dared to continue discussing this dangerous topic. They all turned the topic back to the food.
Pei Huai sighed silently.
Actually,he was a little frustrated that Su Ji was not disgusted by the smell of meat.
It seemed that they didn’t do it enough.
Pei Qingshen gave Du Meilan a look.
Su Ji was so young and Pei Huai was in such good health. It was only a matter of time.
Du Meilan also replied with a look.
Yeah, this kind of thing can’t be rushed.
Bill glanced around the dining table and noticed that Xingxing was not there. “Where are Xingxing and Pei Song? Why didn’t they join us for breakfast?” His Chinese was much better now that he was always here.
At the mention of this, Pei Qingshen smiled mysteriously. “They’re eating out.”
Bill asked, “eating out?”
Pei Qingshen nodded. “The fast food restaurant at the entrance of Zhuzhu’s school has launched something new…a limited edition children’s breakfast box.. Xingxing said he wanted to try it…”
