(Sorry, I was going to take a nap, but I fell asleep. The weather was so hot that my brain felt sluggish.)）
"Grandpa, why?"
Chen Yifan asked anxiously as he looked at his grandfather.
"Yifan, don't ask so many questions for the time being. Just remember, no matter what, don't think about that girl.”
Chef Chen looked at the anxious look on his grandson's face and knew that he was really tempted, not lustful.
However, his expression was still very serious. If he made a mistake in this family, the consequences would be very, very terrifying.
In the end, the Chen family was just a chef.
To the Xiao family, although it was not dispensable, they definitely did not have to worry about finding a replacement.
"Grandpa!"
Chen Yifan still called out to her with an unwilling expression.
"Enough, Yifan. If you have any bad thoughts, I'll break your legs.”
In order to prevent his grandson from making any fatal mistakes, Chef Chen's face hardened as he scolded loudly.
A few heads popped out from the kitchen and then shrank back.
Chen Yifan returned to the kitchen in a daze. He looked at the dough that had missed the best time to ferment. He patted his cheeks to calm himself down.
Now was not the time to think about these useless things.
In the evening, Xiao Wanqiu dragged her tired body after a busy day. When she saw the strong figure, she instantly felt tired.
"Wanqiu, you're back."
Xiao Ling sat on the sofa and looked at Xiao Wanqiu, who pushed open the door and walked in. He glanced at her and saw a trace of fatigue on her face.
"Hey, girl, I told you not to work so hard. You can completely ignore the opinions of those side branches. They have no chance of refuting what I have decided.”Xiao Ling put down the smartphone in his hand and smoothed Xiao Wanqiu's hair.
"Grandpa, I just don't want to admit defeat.”
Xiao Wanqiu's face flushed red, and she was shockingly beautiful.
"Forget it. You've been stubborn since you were young. No one can turn back once you've made up your mind. Just do it. If you can increase the assets in Lingtian Building by five percent, I think those guys should shut their mouths.”
Xiao Ling shook his head. Although those from the side family were not convinced, no one dared to speak bluntly in front of him.
"Old Master, the food is ready. Second Master and the others are also here. Should I invite you to the dining room for dinner?”
At this moment, Xie Xiao Xiao walked through the corridor connecting the villa to the dining room. She looked at the intimate grandfather and grandson on the sofa, and her eyes flickered slightly. Then, she returned to normal and came to Xiao Ling's side to ask.
"Okay, let's go."
When Xiao Ling heard this, he stood up, nodded, and walked towards the dining room.
In the dining room, there was a huge round table with a few appetizing cold dishes on it.
However, there was something that made people confused. There were only four old people sitting at the dining table.
This was the pedantic custom brought by the thousand-year-old aristocratic families. There were only five elders at the dining table.
Xiao Ling, Xiao Mingyan, Third Brother Xiao Lianglong, Fourth Brother Xiao Ying, Fifth Brother Xiao Yufeng.
This was a birthday dinner for the same generation. Even the Xiao sisters were not qualified to sit at this table.
Seeing that there were only four people sitting at the dining table, Xiao Ling's eyes flashed. He pulled Xiao Wanqiu over and pulled out a chair from the side.
"Wanqiu, sit down and eat together.”
Xie Xiaoxiao watched as Xiao Wanqiu sat down at the table. A look of envy flashed across her eyes, but it soon disappeared.
"Big brother!" Seeing this scene, a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on Xiao Ying's face as he called out to Xiao Ling.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Xiao Ling glanced at Xiao Ying, and the aura that was revealed in his eyes went straight to the bottom of his heart.
"Is there a problem?"
The voice was calm and there was nothing wrong with it. However, Xiao Ying felt as if he was being watched by a god.
"No, it's nothing."
He could only shake his head with a stiff expression.
"Big brother's imposing manner really makes people feel great pressure.”
When Xiao Mingyan and the others saw this scene, their eyes flashed with respect.
Which one of them wasn't a group of people who stood at the peak of all living beings?
When he was young, how could he not have thought about controlling everything in this terrifying family?
However, this big brother of theirs was truly too despairing. His methods were far beyond their reach, so none of them dared to complain and submitted to his management.
He didn't dare to complain.
"Serve the dishes."
Xiao Ling nodded his head in satisfaction. He looked at the few people who did not know what to say and ignored them.
She turned around and said to Xie Xiao Xiao.
"Yes, Master."
Xie Xiao Xiao nodded and pressed a button in her pocket. A special sound came from the kitchen.
A moment later, more than ten chefs in chef uniforms each held a delicious dish in their hands and respectfully placed the dish in their hands on the platter.
Chen Yifan placed the Eight Treasures Glazed Soup in the center of the round table and stood beside the chef.
He couldn't help but look at Xie Xiaoxiao, who was standing there with a flawless face. He didn't even look at Xiao Wanqiu.
"Huh?"
Everyone at the dining table, including Xie Xiao Xiao, frowned slightly.
Xie Xiao Xiao's eyes didn't change in the slightest. They were filled with disregard.
Xiao Ling gently waved his hand, stopping Xiao Wanqiu from saying anything.
She glanced at Chen Yifan and continued to savor the exquisite dishes as if nothing had happened.
"Hiss!"
Chen Yifan looked at Xie Xiaoxiao with infatuation. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh.
She held back her screams and looked at Second Uncle who was standing beside her.
Chen Yifan's second uncle's eyes were filled with anger and warning.
"Xiao Xiao, you can go down first. You too.”
He took a sip of the soup in the bowl. The explosive deliciousness made a look flash across his eyes.
His voice was indifferent as he spoke to the group of chefs behind him.
"Yes, Master."
Everyone nodded and slowly left the restaurant.
Xie Xiaoxiao felt wronged. She glanced at Chen Yifan and her eyes became as cold as ice.
