Ch79 – eting the Parents
“A Tang, my brother said just now that you’ll be staying over at our house tonight?” He Yun Chen asked.
“Yes ... Big Brother He was very enthusiastic about it.” In fact, if it weren’t for not wanting to waste even a single minute to prepare for He Yun Chen’s birthday banquet, Ruan Tang didn’t want to impose so much, “Won’t it be too much of an imposition?”
“No!” He Yun Chen said firmly. “My parents like you very much.”
After hearing that, the smile on Ruan Tang’s face couldn’t help widening a bit. A dimple much like his younger brother’s was faintly discernible on his cheek. Seeing this, He Yun Chen heart itched. He couldn’t help reaching out and rubbing his head.
“Here we are. This is it.” He Yun Chen parked the suspended car in front of a house.
The He family lived in a very famous high-end residential area of the Capital Star. They were all single-family villas with small gardens at the back. They were fashioned in a European style, and the environnt was peaceful and quiet, which was in line with Ruan Tang’s preferences.
“I asked yesterday. There are two houses on sale here. I made an appointnt to view the house online and got two hours of access.” He Yun Chen got out of the car and tapped his light brain on the smart terminal in front of the house. The door opened automatically, “Co in and see.”
Ruan Tang walked in behind He Yun Chen. This house was a small unit. It was divided into an upper and lower floor. It had a total floor area of more than 300 square ters. On the ground floor were the kitchen and living room. The upper floor had the two bedrooms. Both upstairs and downstairs had a bathroom. The rooms were bright and spacious, and the floor-to-ceiling windows on the ground floor opened directly to the outside garden. Although there were no decorations or furnishing, Ruan Tang was quite satisfied with this house. Anyway, the current technology was very developed. He’ll just find an interior design company, have a decoration plan made and then building-dedicated robots will co to furnish the house at the fastest speed. The longest ti it would take was only one week. It was truly fast and convenient.
“How much is this house?” Ruan Tang asked He Yun Chen.
“4.35 million.” After all, it was the high-end residential area of Capital Star, and the price of houses will certainly not be cheap.
Ruan Tang nodded calmly. In addition inco from the live broadcasts, he also had a share from the Academy of Sciences and a bonus from the Chefs’ Association.
Then He Yun Chen took him to see the second house for sale. This house was similar to He Yun Chen’s ho. It was a three-story building with a total area of more than 500 square ters. Similarly, the living room and kitchen were on the ground floor. Two bedrooms were on the second floor and the third floor was a large master bedroom and a study. Each floor had a separate bathroom, suitable for living with more family mbers.
This house has been inhabited before, so it was furnished in a simple minimalist style. It looked pretty good.
“Chen Ge, how much is this house?”
“6.2 million.”
The price to performance ratio was quite favorable, but the house was too big. With only him and Ruan Yu living in this house, it would be quite wasteful.
Ruan Tang was a very straightforward person. Since he was satisfied with the environnt and the house in this neighborhood, and on top of that, he could be a neighbor with his good friends, he had no interest in wasting ti goinging to other places to see other houses.
“Chen Ge, I’d like to buy the first house.”
“Well, that house is more suitable for you.” He Yun Chen nodded, then turned on his light brain, and sent Ruan Tang the link to purchase the house.
“I will.” He Yun Chen was very happy to be neighbors with Ruan Tang. In the future, he’ll be able to see him every day.
This house is very close to He Yun Chen’s house, only two roads apart. The two people were chatting happily and soon ca to the He Family house. As soon as they entered the door, they slled sothing cooking.
Hearing the door open, Ran Jing, who was cooking with an apron around her waist, walked out of the kitchen, and imdiately saw Ruan Tang standing beside her son. Her eyes imdiately lit up.
“Auntie, hello.” Seeing this beautiful middle aged woman whose aura scread ‘strong career woman’ from head to foot, Ruan Tang realized that she must be He Yun Chen’s mother.
“Hello, hello, are you Ruan Tang?” Ran Jing looked at Ruan Tang with a smile. This child was even more beautiful than he appeared in his live broadcasts and he was so lovable and polite. She imdiately took a liking to him.
“Yes ...” Visiting for the first ti, Ruan Tang was understandably restrained. Before going to the ho of relatives and friends, he would bring so small gift but the decision to co today had been made hastily and he didn’t have ti to prepare. After thinking about it, Ruan Tang asked, “Auntie, are you cooking? Do you need any help?”
“Okay!” Ran Jing was very happy, and hurriedly invited him to co in. “I often watch your live broadcasts and learn how to make dishes from them. My husband and son had never been willing to eat the food I cooked, but now they accept it. It’s all thanks to you. ”
“Auntie, you give too much credit. It’s because you were able to learn so quickly ...” The two talked while heading towards the kitchen, leaving He Yun Chen, who had been ignored by his own mother, standing rigidly by the door.
With a click, the door opened again, and He Yun Yi, who had just left the office, walked in and bumped into He Yun Chen who was blocking the door.
“Ouch!” It felt as if he had hit an iron plate. He Yun Yi took two steps back. He looked resentfully at his brother who was acting like a door god. “What are you stupidly standing here for?”
“It’s nothing, I just got in.” He Yun Chen pretended to walk in casually.
“Hey! Don’t go! What about A’Tang? Didn’t he co back with you?” He Yun Yi finished handling his work and hurried back, no doubt to quietly consult with Ruan Tang about tomorrow’s matters.
“Cooking in the kitchen with mom.”
“Ah? How can we make a guest do the work? But ... Mom did a good job, ha ha ha ha.” He Yun Yi was very happy to be able to taste Ruan Tang’s food.
Before they ca back, Ran Jing had prepared Di San Xian and so spicy stir fry. Ruan Tang made two dishes and a soup — Chicken Slices in Chili Oil and at Pie Stewed in Eggs, and radish and ribs soup. All the dishes were easy and quick to make. In less than an hour, all the dishes were done.
The aroma coming from the kitchen kept the two brothers sitting in the living room, gulping.
At this ti, He Wei Yu also returned ho. Seeing the two brothers sitting in the living room staring longingly at the kitchen, he frowned slightly.
“What’s the matter?”
“Dad, you’re back? Today, Ruan Tang is here as a guest! He’s cooking with mom in the kitchen!” He Yun Yi grasped what his father ant to ask.
“That food anchor who can act?” He Wei Ye asked.
He Yun Yi: “...”
Food Anchor who can act...what was with the awful description? But Ruan Tang was a film emperor, so there seed to be nothing wrong with that description after all...
“Yes.”
He Wei Ye nodded slightly and handed his coat to the smart housekeeper. He ca back to sit in the dining table after washing his hands in the bathroom.
When Ran Jing and Ruan Tang ca out of the kitchen, they saw the three n of the He family sitting around the dining table.
“Tang Tang! This is my husband.” During the course of cooking, Ran Jing felt a lot closer to Ruan Tang.
“Hi, uncle.” Ruan Tang quickly and politely greeted him.
“Hello.” He Wei Ye nodded slightly, and a barely noticeable smile appeared on his cold face.
“Co, co. Let’s eat!”
Soon, the als were served. Because the n of the He family had big appetites, Ran Jing and Ruan Tang cooked very large portions.
Although Ran Jing’s Di San Xian and Spicy Stir-fry was not bad, obviously, Ruan Tang’s dishes were more popular.
“A’Tang, what are these two dishes? You haven’t made these before, have you?” While He Yun Yi’s chopsticks were descending on the dishes like raindrops, he still didn’t forget to talk to Ruan Tang.
“This is Chicken slices in chili oil and at pie Stewed in Eggs.” Chicken Slices in chili oil was slices of cooked chicken breast topped with julienned cucumbers. Salt, minced garlic and chili oil and other similar seasoning were mixed together to create a kind of dressing. It tasted spicy and refreshing and went very well with rice. at pie stewed in eggs was a dish in which minced at was seasoned with salt and soy sauce and then stead with eggs. The taste of the at and eggs complented each other and made a delicious dish.
“It’s delicious, A’Tang, your craftsmanship is absolutely amazing!”
“Auntie’s dishes are also delicious ...” Ruan Tang was a little embarrassed.
Both hosts and guest enjoyed the al very much. Although He Wei Ye was constantly expressionless, it was easy to see that he was more relaxed and at ease. Obviously, he was not averse to Ruan Tang’s visit. The other three people were very welcoming.
It was just a bit of a hassle when allocating rooms at night. The He family only had three bedrooms. The two brothers He Yun Chen and He Yun Yi were in the two bedrooms on the second floor. He Wei Ye and Ran Jing were in the master bedroom on the third floor. There was a sofa bed in the study on the third floor but it won’t do to let a guest sleep there.
“I’ll sleep in the study. A’Tang, you can sleep in my room,” He Yun Chen offered.
“No, no, no.” Ruan Tang hurriedly refused. He was already causing trouble for them by staying over. How could he be so rude as to force the master of the room to sleep in the study? “Maybe it would be better to just sleep together. We’re both n anyway, so we can just squeeze in together.”
Slee-sleep to-...sleep together ...?
He Yun Chen felt like there was a burst of colorful fireworks in front of him, and his head was suddenly blank. He couldn’t even maintain a presentable expression.
Yes, both of them were good brothers, and they were both n. It’s normal to squeeze in together... but ...
“Okay, anyway, A’Chen’s bed is big enough.” He Yun Yi without batting an eyes, shot a look at his stupid brother. With a smile that was yet not a smile, he said, “I think A’Chen is also very happy.”
Oh, this stupid brother. Looks like he was beyond saving.
