Tang Yung was stunned for a mont, not expecting Lin Chuan to hit the nail on the head with just one sentence.
Surprised, Tang Yung looked at Lin Chuan and asked, "How... how did you know?"
"Of course I know!" Lin Chuan nodded and said, "Because your eyes can't lie to ."
After having stayed at Tang Yung's house for two hours, it was now noon. The effects of the alcohol had worn off, and both of them were sober again.
"I need to go ho for lunch," Lin Chuan said with a smile. "Sis, if you don't mind, you can co to my place for a al."
"Really? Can I?" Tang Yung asked.
"Of course!" Lin Chuan nodded and said, "My mom would definitely be very happy."
"Alright, I'll go change my clothes," Tang Yung said with a smile.
Going to Lin Chuan's house for a al naturally made Tang Yung very happy.
For Tang Yung, having a al at Lin Chuan's house was like eting his parents in advance. Therefore, she had to dress up carefully. Once a woman starts to doll herself up seriously, half an hour is never enough, and even an hour might not seem too much. In short, dressing up seriously is a ti-consuming task for won.
True to form, even with Lin Chuan's repeated urging, it still took Tang Yung forty minutes to get ready.
Although rely wearing light makeup, Tang Yung still looked extraordinarily beautiful. With her hair done up, her long neck, delicate features, and her maroon wool coat, she looked exceptionally elegant. With a tall and well-proportioned figure, she definitely turned heads when she walked out.
"Let's go!" Tang Yung, holding her scarf, said with a smile, "Sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's okay," Lin Chuan said with a wry smile.
.........
At the Lin family's ho, Mrs. Lin was busy preparing lunch, as the first day of the new year's al could not be missed.
Having spent the night at the Lin family's ho for the new year's eve, Nuo Xiaoxi accompanied her mother back to their ho. The day after the reunion night is the first day of the new year when everyone goes back to their own hos. Nuo Xiaoxi's mother wanted to go back to accompany her husband, fearing that Old Nuo might return and not find anyone at ho. Hence, Nuo Xiaoxi had no choice but to slowly help her mother walk back ho.
After getting her mother settled at ho, Nuo Xiaoxi hurried back to the Lin family's ho. She needed to help Mrs. Lin with the household chores like cooking and washing vegetables and rice. And after the al was ready, she would take so to her mother.
Having just reached the doorstep of her ho, Nuo Xiaoxi saw a black Audi car parked at the Lin family's entrance. Lin Chuan stepped out of the driver's seat.
"Brother Lin?" Nuo Xiaoxi was surprised and said, "You... you're back?"
"Yeah," Lin Chuan nodded and said, "Ca back to eat."
"The al will be ready soon," Nuo Xiaoxi said with a smile.
At that mont, Tang Yung got out of the passenger side. From the mont she stepped out, Nuo Xiaoxi's gaze was fixed on Tang Yung. Standing in front of Tang Yung, Nuo Xiaoxi felt an imnse sense of inferiority. As a woman, she found Tang Yung's beauty unbelievably, incredibly stunning. She thought it was hard to believe that there could be such beautiful and attractive won in this world. This was... simply unbelievable.
"Brother Lin, who... who is this sister?" Nuo Xiaoxi asked, astonished.
"She?" Lin Chuan glanced at Tang Yung, just about to reveal the truth when Tang Yung interjected, "I'm Lin Chuan's friend, ca over today to freeload a al at the Lin family."
"Welco," Nuo Xiaoxi chuckled, "Mrs. Lin is cooking, and I'm helping out. You guys should co inside quickly, it's quite cold outside."
With that, Nuo Xiaoxi dashed into the house.
Lin Chuan curiously looked at Tang Yung, as if questioning her. Tang Yung smiled and said, "I don't want others to know about our relationship yet, plus, you haven't confessed to yet. So, I can't consider myself your girlfriend. Once you confess, I'll accept and beco your girlfriend."
Lin Chuan gave a wry smile, this woman was really persistent. Perhaps, deep inside, every woman yearns for a romantic love. Deep in their hearts, they harbor a romantic sentint, a longing like water.
"Alright," Lin Chuan nodded helplessly.
Tang Yung smiled and said, "Go get the gifts from the trunk."
"You prepared gifts?" Lin Chuan asked, surprised.
"Of course!" Tang Yung snorted softly, "Even if you hadn't invited over for a al today, I was going to visit soti anyway. So, I bought the gifts a while ago."
Lin Chuan hurriedly opened the trunk, and indeed, there were two boxes of bird's nest from Hong Kong and several other tonics inside. Lin Chuan laughed and said, "Sis, you really went all out, huh?"
"Not at all," Tang Yung laughed, "Let's go."
Before the two could enter, Mrs. Lin, wearing an apron, ca out. Having heard from Nuo Xiaoxi that Lin Chuan brought a beautiful girl ho, could this be the girlfriend Lin Chuan ntioned? Thus, Mrs. Lin couldn't wait to co out and see for herself.
Upon seeing Tang Yung for the first ti, Mrs. Lin felt indescribable. The girl was just too beautiful; she couldn't even think of words to describe her. However, she saw that Lin Chuan was also a handso talent, and Tang Yung was an exceptionally beautiful woman. The two seed like a perfect match. Mrs. Lin felt sowhat reassured, glad that her son was also not bad, now earning tens of thousands a month, which should be worthy of this young lady.
"Auntie, hello, my na is Tang Yung, I'm Lin Chuan's friend," Tang Yung walked over enthusiastically, shaking Mrs. Lin's hand without minding the dirt on her hands.
"Hello, hello, co inside and take a seat." Mrs. Lin was even more enthusiastic, pulling Tang Yung into the house.
After entering, Mrs. Lin hurriedly asked Tang Yung to sit down and instructed: "Chuan, go pour so tea for Miss Tang."
"Oh, we're all family here, no need for formalities." Lin Chuan placed the gift on the tea table, saying, "Mom, this is the gift she bought for you. Bird's nest with gold threads and shark fins bought from Hong Kong..."
"That's too generous of you." Mrs. Lin said with an awkward smile.
"Auntie, it's not extravagant." Tang Yung said with a smile: "This is just a little token of my appreciation, please accept it. Don't be shy. Next ti I'll buy more if you like it."
"Alright, alright." Mrs. Lin was suddenly very pleased and couldn't be happier.
Tang Yung was so sweet and polite, so beautiful and such a wonderful girl, where could one find soone like her? It seems that the Lin family's ancestors have started to produce blessings, now that such a beautiful girl has co to their doorstep.
Mrs. Lin quickly said: "You two sit for a while, I'll go to the kitchen and dinner will be ready soon."
Having said that, Mrs. Lin hurried into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Nuo Xiaoxi was silent for a mont, carefully picking out vegetables. Mrs. Lin seed to notice Nuo Xiaoxi's off mood and smiled: "Xiaoxi, don't take it too much to heart. This girl is just a friend of Lin Chuan."
"Auntie, I..." Nuo Xiaoxi bit her red lips and said, "I just want to marry Lin Chuan."
Nuo Xiaoxi finally revealed her feelings.
"Don't worry, auntie will definitely let you marry Lin Chuan." Mrs. Lin felt sympathy for Xiaoxi, treating Xiaoxi like her own daughter. Now, seeing Nuo Xiaoxi looking unhappy, she imdiately felt sorry for her and patted her chest to assure that she would definitely help her marry Lin Nanchuan in the future.
"Really?" Nuo Xiaoxi was sowhat surprised when she heard this.
"Of course, it's true!" Mrs. Lin nodded and said: "You just be assured about this."
"Hmm." Nuo Xiaoxi blushed slightly.
Lunch was ready soon, and it featured eight dishes on the table. Nuo Xiaoxi first packed so dishes in a al box, then hurried back to her own ho. Tang Yung was curious, but after Lin Chuan explained it to her, she understood.
"Xiaoxi is really a filial and sensible child." Tang Yung remarked.
"Yes." Lin Chuan nodded and said: "Children from poor families mature early. It's absolutely true."
"Co on, let's eat." Mrs. Lin brought over a bowl of spare rib soup.
"Auntie, you should eat too." Tang Yung said with a smile.
"Alright, you start first, I'll join you soon." Mrs. Lin nodded.
The lunch was sumptuous, and apart from one braised chicken dish, the rest were all ho-cooked als. The braised chicken was Mrs. Lin's specialty, similar to Beggar's Chicken. After cleaning the whole chicken, it was wrapped with aluminum foil along with ingredients and then buried in firewood and slowly stewed for several hours, making sure the flavor of the ingredients penetrates into the chicken at, which becos soft and delicious.
"This chicken is really good." Tang Yung said surprised: "It's no less impressive than what so professional chefs make."
"Heh heh, my mom is indeed a great chef." Lin Chuan laughed loudly.
"Auntie also works at a hotel?" Tang Yung asked curiously.
"No." Lin Chuan shook his head, saying: "I was just saying that my mom is the master chef of our house."
"Go away." Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan.
Mrs. Lin quickly joined the table, and inevitably exchanged pleasantries with Tang Yung. The al was tiring for Lin Chuan; usually he could finish eating in just a few minutes, but today he had to eat slowly, accompanying Tang Yung and his mother.
As the two won continuously chatted, each trying to understand the other. Indeed, it's said three won can create a drama, but today these two won indeed made quite a play themselves.
Lin Chuan felt sowhat impatient on the side, but he still had to sit patiently. He couldn't speak out of turn or act rashly.
After finally finishing the al, just as they sat down, Tang Yung's phone rang; it was Bai Yifan calling. Tang Yung promptly answered to find that Bai Yifan needed her. She then excused herself to leave first. Lin Chuan had no idea what it was about.
"I'll see you out." Lin Chuan said.
"No need." Tang Yung shook her head, and said: "I'll go back by myself."
"Alright." Lin Chuan handed the keys to Tang Yung.
Lin Chuan saw Tang Yung off at the doorstep, watching her leave.
At that mont, Mrs. Lin ca over and asked: "Chuan, is Miss Tang really just a friend to you?"
"Her?" Lin Chuan smiled and said: "Mom, I'm going to marry her in the future."
