Chapter 2294: Chapter 2230: Feeling Sothing’s Not Quite Right
"Why don’t you all go together then? It would save Great Officer ng from having to introduce each of you to his partner individually. I’ve heard that it’s better to have more people for the first gathering at a new place. Although it’s just a military dormitory here, it’s still worth being a bit ceremonious, right? That way, Great Officer ng’s partner will feel welco, won’t she?" Sister-in-law Chen suggested.
Duan Huaiyang laughed as he heard this, "Exactly, exactly. Normally Great Officer ng looks so cold and aloof. I really want to see how he acts in front of his partner."
Dai Gang thought to himself, ’When has our Great Officer ever been cold in front of sister-in-law? He probably uses a lot of playful tricks.’
He pondered and said, "I think we should forget it. Since it’s her first ti here, Great Officer should take her around to get familiar first."
Chen Yujun asked, "Is Comrade Xiao Chiang very shy? Afraid of strangers?"
When he and Zhao Ren visited previously, they didn’t notice that at all. The young lady seed quite poised and not at all shy.
Dai Gang replied, "Not at all..."
’Are you kidding? Would his sister-in-law be shy? Afraid of strangers?’
’Soone who could beat up even a few of us...’
"Then it’s settled, I think it will be fine," Chen Yujun, thinking he wanted to apologize to ng Xinian and Chiang Xiao, said, "We’ll bring a few bottles of drinks to properly welco Comrade Xiao Chiang."
Sister-in-law Chen saw that they agreed, and imdiately said, "I’ll cook a couple of dishes to bring along, so they don’t have to work too hard."
Zhao Ren chuckled, "Sister-in-law is always so thoughtful."
The group prepared and headed towards the dormitory area.
Dai Gang felt like sothing was a bit off.
He wasn’t sure if Great Officer ng had managed to appease sister-in-law yet.
However, if sister-in-law was already not upset, joining them for a al would be fine. He knew that Chiang Xiao wouldn’t mind such things at all.
Knowing that ng Xinian had good rapport in the army, she would be quite happy.
Thinking this, Dai Gang felt reassured.
But he hadn’t anticipated that Long Xiaocai would join them.
Chiang Xiao was in the kitchen cooking. The vegetables were all selected and washed by ng Xinian, so she was just responsible for stir-frying.
Since they were inviting The Elder Couple Yang to eat, Chiang Xiao cooked the dishes until they were a bit softer, and added an appropriate amount of Spirit Spring Water, more than they usually used for themselves.
Knowing the connection between ng Xinian and Old Yang, Chiang Xiao wasn’t stingy at all towards Old Yang.
ng Xinian hovered around her, seeing the amount of Spring Water she used, he understood Chiang Xiao’s intentions. This al of four dishes and one soup was almost priceless.
They looked like ordinary ho-cooked dishes without any at, but they were precious even if one offered a fortune for them outside.
Unable to resist, ng Xinian leaned in and kissed Chiang Xiao on the cheek.
"Little, thank you."
"Thank
for what?" Chiang Xiao glanced at him sidelong, "Just don’t go looking all lifeless." To her, ng Xinian was not soone who would brood and hold onto responsibilities that weren’t his own, leading to a depressed and dejected state.
So, seeing him like that previously felt strange to her.
Luckily, ng Xinian quickly snapped out of it.
"How could I?" ng Xinian smiled and said, "My silly girl doesn’t like that kind of person, so I absolutely wouldn’t be like that."
"It’s almost done cooking. Go and invite Grandpa Yang and Grandma over."
"Alrighty."
