From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 100
Chapter 100: Courtyard Barbecue (1)
If Grandpa Jian said that, Jian Shuxing couldn’t say much.
As of now, Yiling lived at the Old Jian Residence. Grandpa and Grandma Jian were looking after her. If they said that it wasn’t a problem, he shouldn’t interfere anymore.
However, in his heart, he still felt that it was inappropriate.
Regardless of how reliable Yu Xi was, he was still a boy.
And Yiling was their darling girl.
Although it was possible for their two families to get married in the future, that was not something for him to consider as of now. Yiling was still young. She had to grow older before they talked about these things.
###
Around ten o’clock, Yu Xi started to bring out the ingredients that Jian Yiling had prepared.
There were a few sun umbrellas that had been propped up on the lawn. Alongside them, there were several barbecue grills as well.
Next to that, there were some cooked dishes and drinks stacked on a table.
These had been prepared by He Yan.
After she finished talking to Yu Xi, she had been incredibly busy.
She made sure that all the drinks and ingredients were top-notch quality. She had carefully prepared each item.
Whilst this was meant to be a simple courtyard barbecue, He Yan saw it otherwise. It was a rare opportunity for her to see Master Sheng.
There were so many people who wanted to see Master Sheng. They had tried various methods but none had succeeded.
When Yu Xi looked at the table that had been piled with food and drinks, he asked a servant to move another table out.
The ingredients that they had prepared must be placed separately.
The ingredients that He Yan had bought must not be mixed up with the one’s that Yiling had prepared personally. They had gone out to buy the ingredients together!
Even if Yiling’s cooking was terrible, it was still special! It would stand out from the masses.
As long as it didn’t taste too bad, he would do his best to eat Yiling’s food.
It was important to consider God Ling’s feelings. He needed to protect her ego.
Yu Xi hadn’t tasted anything that Jian Yiling made. As such, he didn’t have many hopes for the seasoning and flavoring.
However, Jian Yiling had been quite decisive with her seasoning and flavoring. Based on that, he was willing to try her food out.
After everything was moved, Jian Yiling and the others had also come out.
Jian Yiling was wearing an apron that had cartoon images printed on it.
It was light pink in color. There was a little white rabbit that had been embroidered on it. The eyes of the rabbit were round and cute.
Zhai Yunsheng had bought it for her when they had gone shopping in the morning.
As it was needed when she prepared the ingredients in the kitchen, Jian Yiling had worn it.
That was the only apron that had fitted her. She had no other choice.
Jian Yujie followed Jian Yiling. He had a radiant smile on his face and appeared to be speaking to Jian Yiling.
Zhai Yunsheng was also walking with them. However, he trailed slightly behind the other two.
He Yan was delighted to see Zhai Yunsheng appear with Jian Yujie. This was definitely good news for her!
Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan longingly gazed at their daughter. Their hearts were swayed. However, after a moment, they looked back at Jian Yunnao. He focused his negative emotions on his phone and ignored everyone around him.
Jian Yuncheng’s brows were knotted again. His gaze fell on Zhai Yunsheng. The man was less than two meters away from Jian Yiling.
And that man was dangerous.
His sister shouldn’t be close to such a person.
After the barbecue today, he was ready to have a word with Yu Xi.
Grandpa Jian and Grandma Jian had already sat down. The two elders seemed like two children who were quietly waiting for food.
As soon as Jian Yiling arrived, Grandma Jian smiled at her and said, “Our darling cooked for us today! Granny will wait for your food. Is that okay?”
