Chapter 1046: Chapter 1046: What’s ant to Co Will Co_1 Chapter 1046: Chapter 1046: What’s ant to Co Will Co_1 Upon hearing this, Cindy Clarke imdiately asked, “Have you been in trouble recently?”
Not waiting for Peggy Lewis to answer, Cindy expressed her dissatisfaction: “Why didn’t you tell when you ran into trouble?
Don’t you consider a friend anymore?”
Before, she didn’t have the capability, not to ntion helping Peggy.
In many instances, it was Peggy who needed to help her instead.
Even though their relationship was good, it didn’t require such nitpicking.
However, Cindy felt that now that she had this ability.
Of course, it’s mainly due to Adrian’s capabilities.
But in any case, if Peggy had any issues, Adrian would surely lend a hand.
...
Yet, she was surprised that Peggy didn’t tell her first when she encountered problems.
She felt sowhat excluded.
“No,” Peggy said softly, “It’s not that I didn’t tell you, I just didn’t have ti to tell you yet.”
“Huh?” Cindy imdiately understood, “Do you an that before you had ti to tell , your problem was already solved by your friend?”
“Yes.” Peggy nodded.
“Who is your friend?
Do I know him?” Cindy, out of curiosity, asked.
She had a feeling it was Lyke Zhekova.
“Well…” Now, Peggy was sowhat caught in a bind and unsure how to explain to Cindy.
At this mont, Lyke Zhekova suddenly turned his head and asked, “Is it Cindy?”
Lyke’s voice was not too loud or too soft, just at a normal volu.
So, Peggy had no way to argue that he did it on purpose.
The volu was just right to be heard by Cindy.
“Is that Fourth Uncle?” Cindy’s hearing was excellent.
Peggy: “…”
She highly suspected that Lyke did it on purpose, but she had no evidence.
“Yes.” What’s going to co will eventually co.
After the matter was brought up, Peggy felt more relaxed.
“It’s just that Reish and Majestic were cooperating this ti, and before that, I happened to have t with your Fourth Uncle.” Peggy explained.
She scratched her ears and said, “You know, I was competing for the manager’s position with a person in our departnt, right?”
“Just because of the collaboration with Majestic, we had an unpleasant ti.” Peggy continued, “His tactics in securing contracts were not honest, yet he turned the tables and accused .
He blad all the things he did on .”
“Because it involved Majestic, your Fourth Uncle helped a lot.

I haven’t even had ti to tell you that the problem has already been solved.” Peggy briefly explained.
The specifics, however, were too complicated to explain in a short period.
Lyke, listening by the side, heard Peggy referring to him as “your Fourth Uncle” over and over again.
It made him feel sowhat uncomfortable.
Cindy was surprised by this matter, but her thoughts weren’t sidetracked.
She still rembered the reason why Peggy initially ca to see her.
Cindy was quite clear about this.
“So, you specially wanted to learn the stomach-nourishing cuisine from for my Fourth Uncle, right?” Cindy asked with a smile, her face full of gossip.
Cindy talked to Peggy on the phone, without avoiding the two elders.
If it had been about sothing else, Cindy would have gone aside to talk.
But when she heard that one of the people involved was actually Lyke Zhekova.
Cindy chose to stay instead.
Moreover, when she ntioned Lyke’s na, both the kid and the Old Madam looked over instantly.
Their eyes were intense.
Both pairs of eyes were radiant, the strong presence attracting attention unavoidably.
Cindy understood their intentions.
She decided not to leave.
“Yes, it is.” Peggy braced herself and confessed.
Lyke Zhekova couldn’t hear what Cindy was saying on the other end.
Therefore, when he heard Peggy admit it, he didn’t find anything special about it.
“Isn’t it a hassle to keep sending food back and forth?” Cindy began with her questioning.
Peggy: “…”
Peggy would never admit that she was currently living at Lyke’s house.
If she did, Cindy would surely steer the conversation in another direction.
“It’s okay, it’s all in the na of sincerity!” Peggy said.
“That’s true.” After so thought, Cindy realised that the more tis Peggy sent food, the more they would interact.
Through these back and forth trips, they could beco even more familiar with each other.
Cindy said: “Peggy, my Fourth Uncle is a good man.”
Originally, Cindy wouldn’t have casually said this.
At least not in front of the elders.
At most, she would ntion it privately to Peggy.
But since the Old Madam clearly expressed that she highly accepted Peggy.
Even wanted to find an opportunity to matchmake.
Then Cindy certainly wouldn’t mind saying it in front of the Old Madam.
As expected, upon hearing Cindy’s words, the Old Madam’s eyes beca even brighter.
The Old Madam repeatedly nodded at Cindy, highly approving of Cindy’s evaluation of Lyke.
Lyke Zhekova is quite a good man!
Cindy continued: “Even though he is my Fourth Uncle and the generational gap is sowhat significant, his age isn’t that old, he’s still in his pri.
He’s only 6 years older than Adrian.”
With the turn of the year, Adrian had turned 31.
Ti passed by so quickly, it was quite astonishing.
Peggy: “…”
The implications in Cindy’s words made her feel sowhat uneasy.
“Peggy, I don’t have any other intentions, I just want to tell you that there’s no need to feel burdened when interacting with my Fourth Uncle.
Just treat him as an equal.”
Cindy dared not say more.
She hadn’t confird with Lyke yet.
She didn’t know what Lyke’s thoughts were, so stirring Peggy’s heart prematurely would do more harm than good.
“You shouldn’t regard him as an elder like purely because he is my Fourth Uncle.
He’s an elder to , not to you, so treat each other as equals.” Cindy said.
Treating each other as equals, without the restriction of seniority.
At least Peggy could be more open and not erect a barrier between her and Lyke because of her relationship with Lyke.
Always interacting with Lyke with apprehension and burden makes one unable to truly loosen up.
Initially, she took a step forward, but then withdrew half a step.
“You are my friend, but there is no generational connection between you and my Fourth Uncle.” Cindy reminded her.
“Yeah, I know.” Peggy nodded.
Lyke Zhekova had explained this long ago and had already convinced her.
So now Peggy had been fully persuaded by Lyke Zhekova.
Added with what Cindy said, Peggy was now completely unburdened.
Moreover, she couldn’t help but be attracted to Lyke.
Now it’s impossible to consider him as an uncle based on seniority.
After all, they originally had no familial ties, why out of the blue call him uncle.
The deeper aning of Cindy’s words was to let Peggy open up her heart.
To regard Lyke as a man of the sa generation, and if there were feelings, to be more courageous about it.
But Cindy didn’t dare to say it directly to Peggy.
Fearing it might unnecessarily rouse her feelings.
She could only say this now to help Peggy open up her mind.
As for the rest, she had to let Peggy and Lyke develop freely.
“Alright, I’ll organise the stomach-nourishing recipes now.” Cindy said, “It’s not troubleso at all, I’ll tailor it for you.”
