Marrying a wealthy family for the second time, being spoiled by a paranoid childhood sweetheart
Chapter 19 Cooking for Him Personally
"Why is there so much food in your refrigerator?"
Seeing that Gu Chen had prepared so many talent worlds, Jiang Ru didn't know where to start.
"Nothing, just bought some casually." Gu Chen said lightly.
The refrigerator in his house was always empty before, but when he knew Jiang Ru was coming to his house to cook, he specially asked someone to buy a lot of ingredients.
"What do you like to eat?"
Jiang Ru didn't know what dish to cook for a moment, and after being unable to think of a solution for a long time, she asked Gu Chen for his advice.
"As long as you do it, I like it."
However, Gu Chen started teasing her at this time, with a hint of ambiguity in his words.
"Then I'll just make some home-cooked food!"
Jiang Ru quickly changed the topic and immediately found ingredients to cook for Gu Chen.
"I'll wash the vegetables, and you cook!"
Gu Chen took the initiative to help out, he was responsible for assisting, Jiang Ru also needed a helper.
The two of them were surprisingly harmonious and got along very happily. It was their first time working together and cooking, but it turned out surprisingly perfectly.
Jiang Ru directly made a few home-cooked dishes for Gu Chen: "I don't know what you like to eat, so I made some casually, you try it."
The home-cooked dishes in front of him were all a combination of meat and vegetables, and they were delicious and fragrant. After being carefully prepared, they were let Gu Chen taste them.
Jiang Ru picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and put it in his bowl. "Try it. Is this pork rib delicious?"
"Very good! I didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good. The scrambled eggs with tomatoes are also delicious, and the fish head soup is also very delicious."
Gu Chen took a bite and found it unexpectedly delicious. He then tried other dishes, all of which were very much to his liking.
It seemed that his taste buds were completely conquered. In the past, he only ate one bowl of rice, but today he couldn't help but eat it all. He didn't expect that the food made by Jiang Ru could whet his appetite. It was really a pleasant surprise!
"As long as you like it, I feel embarrassed when you praise me so much."
Seeing that Gu Chen gave her a high evaluation, Jiang Rukua was overjoyed and said that she was not as great as she said.
The atmosphere between the two of them heated up a bit during dinner. Jiang Ru asked Gu Chen what he was doing and asked curiously, "Your family is so rich, what do you do?"
"My family runs a small business. I bought a lottery ticket and won the jackpot. I became rich overnight, but it's not worth mentioning."
Gu Chen did not reveal his true identity, but used the lottery win to cover up his past and said that he had invested in some small projects.
"So that's how it is, then you're really lucky!"
Jiang Ru sighed, but didn't have much doubt. After all, she had never heard of a rich young man with the name Gu Chen before. Maybe Gu Chen was really a nouveau riche who won the lottery, and didn't have big tits. He was just an ordinary businessman.
So Jiang Ru believed it and didn't think too much about it.
"You just need to cook, you don't have to do anything else, I'll just wash the dishes."
After dinner, Jiang Ru wanted to wash the dishes, but Gu Chen didn't let her do it and took the initiative to help.
Apart from cooking, Gu Chen didn't let Jiang Ru do anything else, and Jiang Ru had nothing to do in Gu Chen's house.
Because they got along so well during the meal, their relationship became much closer. After Jiang Ru returned, she was thinking about whether she should attend Jiang Yuannian’s 60th birthday party?
After thinking about it for a whole night, Jiang Ru finally agreed to go. After all, if she didn't go, what kind of trouble would arise? They were all family, and they didn't want to embarrass each other.
In order to save her father's face, Jiang Ru decided to go and personally selected a low-key and luxurious gift, especially a more exquisite jade ruyi.
After choosing the gift, Jiang Ru returned to the Jiang family's old house. At this moment, everyone in the villa was happy. The whole family gathered together to eat and didn't even wait for Jiang Ru to come. Everyone was celebrating the birthday with laughter.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
It wasn't until Jiang Ru showed up and interrupted their laughter that the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"Come in and eat together."
There were delicacies from land and sea on the dining table. When Jiang Yuannian saw her, the smile on his face disappeared instantly. He just hoped that Jiang Ru would not ruin the birthday party he had carefully prepared.
"Now it's time to give you gifts, Dad. I wish you happiness as vast as the East Sea and a life as long as the Southern Mountains."
"Second Uncle, I wish you a long life and prosperous business."
All branches of the Jiang family came to give gifts and blessings to Jiang Yuannian, the birthday boy tonight. Each gift was very precious, and the value of the gifts exceeded millions. This made Jiang Yuannian very happy. Even the cheapest gift started at one million.
"We've all given away our gifts, but where's yours? Are you reluctant to give it away?"
Jiang Yanxin suddenly said in a sarcastic tone.
The woman who was speaking was none other than my uncle's daughter and my cousin.
Ever since their father went to prison, they hadn't had much contact with each other. Even when they met, they didn't say hello. Now that they were celebrating his birthday together, it was indeed a bit awkward.
Jiang Ru ignored all that and took out the gift she had given Jiang Yuannian, sincerely wishing him well: "This is the jade ruyi I picked for you, Second Uncle. I hope everything goes well for you."
The moment Jiang Ru took out the jade ruyi, Jiang Yuannian's expression changed and the smile on his face disappeared instantly. This gift looked the most expensive, but it was only a little over 100,000. Why would someone give him such a worthless thing for his birthday?
He felt that he had lost face and wanted to explode, but in front of everyone he could only endure it and nodded expressionlessly: "Well, I'm glad that you meant it."
"How can your gift be so worthless? How can you have the nerve to give such a low-quality gift? What status does our Jiang family have? It's so shabby, it's simply embarrassing!"
Unexpectedly, the gift that Jiang Ru had carefully prepared was ridiculed by Jiang Yanxin as worthless, and she was angry at her for coming. Jiang Yanxin has been sarcastic and mean since she was a child, and she dislikes Jiang Ru in this family. She used to be jealous of the love Jiang Ru received, and later when Jiang Ru fell into poverty, she looked down on her even more, and targeted Jiang Ru openly and secretly.
Jiang Jiaojiao was secretly pleased to see them arguing with each other, but on the surface she tried to reconcile and dissuade them, comforting Jiang Ru: "Okay, let's all say less. This is also a token of our consideration. Don't be too angry. My cousin is just outspoken and doesn't mean any harm!"
Second Aunt Li Zhuya, who was standing nearby, remained silent. Seeing Jiang Ru's expression suddenly become odd, she realized something was amiss and asked, "Why didn't your husband Zhou Yiran come? Does he look down on us? After all, our Jiang family is a well-known and prestigious family. How could he possibly look down on us?"
