[Your final mission today is to win over Angeline’s parents.]
[You can use any ans necessary, and your reward will be an S-level cooking skill.]
[There will be no punishnt if you fail or refuse to complete this mission, but your reputation with the Angeline family will be severely damaged.]
Ugh, Riki didn’t care whether he could obtain that high-level cooking skill, but he couldn’t just ignore it either.
Actually, Riki is pretty good at dealing with parents or children. But they are a wealthy family. They live in a different world from Riki before.
Of course, Riki isn’t confident in handling them this ti.
However, he can’t just back out either. His good reputation in Angeline’s eyes will drop drastically. After all, Angeline has seen him as a good young man.
Angeline’s parents approached the car when neither Riki nor Angeline had gotten out yet.
Reluctantly, Riki got out of the car. With a mix of emotions, he opened the door for Angeline.
Angeline’s parents seed to soften when they saw Riki’s gentlemanly behavior toward their daughter.
Carefully holding Angeline’s hand, Riki approached Angeline’s parents and smiled warmly at them.
Riki hoped they didn’t hear his heart pounding from nervousness.
"Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Harland... I’m Riki—"
"How dare you take our daughter out for such a romantic dinner?" Angeline’s father said.
Angeline’s mother nodded, "Yes, we were surprised to see the live broadcast. You two are indeed romantic, but we don’t even know if you’re suitable for our daughter yet."
"You should have invited us too; I also want to have dinner there!" interjected a young man—was he a man?
Though he had the physique of a typical young man, this young man had a beautiful face. With feminine facial features, he had a body like a man.
Riki was confused about what to do at that mont. Angeline’s parents and siblings seed unwilling to let Riki go anyti soon.
"Angelo! Why would I bring my family on a date? You’re so annoying. Riki is a good young man who won’t disappoint you guys. Don’t you want a son-in-law who’s wealthy and hardworking? A polite and handso son-in-law? I’ve already brought him to you, and you’re still like this?" Angeline said, clearly very annoyed at that mont.
But from her words, Riki realized that Angeline’s sibling was a young man with a beautiful face. And Riki also realized that when Angelo smiled at him, it wasn’t an ordinary smile.
It was a terrifying smile.
Beautiful and psychopathic were the two perfect words to describe Angelo’s smile.
Riki felt a chill run down his spine.
Angeline’s family stared at Riki, sizing him up from head to toe.
Everything was luxurious—Riki was handso, he could afford to rent the entire Skydine, and he had given her a rare pink diamond ring.
"But... seeing his fair skin even though we live in a tropical country, I can’t believe he’s a hard worker," said Angeline’s father.
Riki was surprised to hear this, then looked at his own hands.
Damn.
He had the sa skin as his mother. Skin that turned red when exposed to the sun instead of tanning like other people’s.
And people’s perception of a hard worker is soone with a tan, since they’re in a tropical country.
"Dad—"
"Shh! Let your boyfriend answer that, Angeline."
Riki swallowed hard because his throat felt extrely dry.
He then thought for a mont and responded to Mr. Harland’s previous statent.
"I have a skin type that turns red when exposed to sunlight. So, I’ve spent most of my ti indoors. However, I’ve also worked under the scorching sun. I think the definition of a hard worker isn’t always judged by skin color. Because there are many people who work hard but stay indoors." Riki said.
His heart was racing from nervousness, but Riki tried to stay calm and smile.
Suddenly, Angeline’s father burst into laughter. He also patted Riki on the shoulder. Angeline’s beautiful mother joined in the laughter, as if Riki had just made a joke.
"You’re so funny, young man. What’s your na—oh, Riki? Hahaha, sorry for startling you. We were just surprised that our beloved daughter was dating a young man we didn’t know. Especially since it was shown on TV, we thought it was just a prank, hahahaha!"
Though Angeline’s father’s pat was quite hard and felt painful, Riki just laughed awkwardly.
[You’ve won over Angeline’s parents!]
[Your reward is S-rank cooking skill, the highest level. No matter what you cook, even if it’s just thrown together, your food will still taste delicious.]
Well, cooking skill might co in handy for Riki later.
"But we haven’t even cooked yet, and our personal chef is on vacation... at least you should take responsibility." Angelo said.
The pretty guy gave Riki a sly smile, sending a chill down his spine again.
"Oh, if my future son-in-law could cook, that would be better," replied Angeline’s mother.
It seems Angelo’s nature cos from his mother—both beautiful and cunning. Riki is lucky that the beautiful Angeline has her father’s nature.
"That’s not a problem; I’d be happy to cook a delicious al for you. If you’re willing to try my cooking. I used to work at a restaurant," said Riki.
Angeline nudged Riki’s side with her elbow and whispered, "Don’t ss around, because my family is very picky about food. They don’t have any particular likes or dislikes, but—"
Riki smiled at Angeline and replied, "You just need to trust this ti, Angel."
Angeline could only surrender at that mont. Even though she was afraid Riki might not please them. In fact, they had a personal chef they had brought all the way from Japan. Because they were very particular about good food.
With confidence, Riki cooked at Angeline’s house. All the ingredients and cooking utensils were complete.
With his S-level cooking skills, Riki easily knew what to do with each ingredient. When he picked up the fresh chicken, he could already imagine what dishes he could make with it.
The Harland family watched Riki as if they were watching an interesting show. Riki looked like a professional chef at that mont, truly surprising.
"Where did you find such a young man, Angeline?" Angeline’s mother whispered.
"You might not believe it, but just a few days ago, he was still being bullied at university. He was also called a ’poor loser.’ I didn’t expect anything when I accepted his date, but he surprised . He took to the most expensive salon, The Queen Crown. He also took to Skydine and gave a pink diamond ring. This was truly a surprising experience for ," said Angeline.
They couldn’t believe it—the Angeline they knew was so picky, yet she said all that with a wide smile.
Angeline is ordinary girl that could fall in love after all.
