‘What’s the matter?” Zhou Ling asked curiously when he noticed that Liao Ning had been silent for a while.
Liao Ning shook her head. “I’m fine. Lin Wan has proposed a collaboration to bring down her husband.”
Surprised, Zhou Ling raised an eyebrow. “What do you think about it?”
“Do you think we can trust her?” Liao Ning turned the question back to him.
“It seems reliable. Lin Wan comes from the prestigious Lin family. Before marrying Wei Nan, she used her exceptional taste to elevate the Lin family’s business in the market. After marrying Wei Nan, she even played a significant role in stabilizing his position as the head of the Wei family through the sales of mental strength potions.”
Liao Ning smiled. “I never expected Lin Wan to be such a formidable businesswoman. I will meet her tomorrow.”
As Liao Ning and Zhou Ling discussed their upcoming meeting with Lin Wan, Elder Jiang and Su MO were filled with anger. They were outraged by the Wei family’s manipulation of Zhu Ying.
Su Mots smile had vanished, replaced by a cold expression. “The audacity of the Wei family! They not only harmed the Wang family but also obstructed the Su family’s search for Zhu Ying, leading to my grandmother’s demise from depression. I won’t let them off lightly. Miss Liao Ning, from now on, I will instruct our family’s intelligence network to gather evidence of the Wei and Wang families’ crimes throughout the years.”
Su Mo’s eyes turned icy. “We will submit the evidence to the Alliance
Procuratorate. They will face the consequences!”
“Su MO is correct. I will also leverage my reputation in the culinary world to contribute to seeking justice for my departed old friend,” Elder Jiang stated with a piercing gaze. “They shall not escape punishment!”
“Thank you.”
With their plans settled, Liao Ning and Zhou Ling bid farewell and departed. Liao Ning needed to return to the Zhou family to find the young wolf cub she had left behind. After not seeing him all morning, she couldn’t help but miss him.
When Liao Ning arrived back at the Zhou family, she found Liao Nai engrossed in reading a picture book under the supervision of Butler Li. It reminded her of the heartwarming moments between a grandfather and granddaughter.
Not wanting to disturb their tender interaction, Liao Ning planned to quietly head to the kitchen. However, the wolf cub soon noticed her presence. “Aunt!”
The moment Liao Nai spotted Liao Ning, he swiftly jumped off the sofa and rushed to her side. Embracing her tightly, he nuzzled his face against her chest like an affectionate puppy.
“I missed you so much, Aunt!”
Liao Ning affectionately stroked his little head and replied gently, “I missed you too, Nai Nai.”
“I watched Aunt’s competition livestream with Butler Grandpa at home. Aunt was amazing! You won the championship !” Liao Nail s eyes sparkled as he looked up at Liao Ning.
“Did you behave and listen to Butler Grandpa while I was away today?”
Liao Nai proudly exclaimed, “Yes! But I’m a bit sad that I didn’t get to eat Aunt’s food today.”
Amused by the wolf cub’s response, Liao Ning teased him with a smile. “Oh, you’re such a little glutton. Well, I’ll make some delicious food for you right now! ”
Although Liao Nai was thrilled about the prospect of eating something delicious, he couldn’t help but correct her. “I’m not a gluttonous cat. I’m a wolf
“Yes, yes, yes. You’re the most adorable wolf cub!”
As Liao Ning spoke, she made her way to the kitchen. It was already 11 PM, and logically, she shouldn’t be eating at this hour. However, seeing the wolf cub’s eager anticipation, she couldn’t resist the urge to satisfy him.
Liao Ning decided to prepare a lighter dish that would be easy to digest—a soft and delicious eight-treasure porridge seemed perfect. If she couldn’t finish it tonight, she could have it for breakfast the next morning.
Luckily, all the necessary ingredients were readily available in the kitchen. She gathered glutinous rice, black rice, peanuts, red dates, red beans, and Yun beans. As there were no lotus seeds in the Interstellar Alliance, Liao Ning omitted them from this batch.
After meticulously washing each ingredient, Liao Ning removed the red dates from the mix.
She gathered 120 grams of glutinous rice, 50 grams of black rice, 30 grams of peanuts, 30 grams of red beans, and 30 grams of Yun beans. This carefully crafted combination had been refined by Liao Ning through numerous trials. The resulting eight-treasure porridge was known for its rich consistency, soft texture, and delightful sweetness.
Although the other ingredients required soaking in water for two hours beforehand, Liao Ning opted to use a pressure cooker this time due to her time constraints.
She placed all the ingredients in the pot and added the appropriate amount of water and rock sugar. The mixture would stew for 40 minutes.
“Nai Nai, come help Aunt carry the porridge to the living room.”
Liao Ning poured the porridge into small bowls, preparing four in total, including one for Butler Li.
When Butler Li received his bowl of eight-treasure porridge from Liao Ning, he immediately glanced at Zhou Ling. Normally, he wasn’t permitted to eat during work hours.
Understanding Liao Ning’s kind gesture, Zhou Ling nodded at the butler. “Uncle Li, give it a try as well. Ningning’s cooking is exceptional..”
