Come To My Side - Chapter 42

Cooking may be a hobby for some people, or it may be a necessity in life that has to be learned.

But for people like Jiang Suizhou and Guan Xi, who are always ready to cook and can’t take cooking as an interest, the kitchen is a forbidden place. is proof.

Moreover, Guan Xi thought that Jiang Suizhou and her were half a pound in this area, so he really didn’t expect him to step into the kitchen.

“I’m just kidding, I really don’t eat.” Guan Xi stood at the door of the kitchen, very worried, “Don’t burn down Lang Ningyi’s kitchen.”

Jiang Suizhou said nothing, opened the refrigerator and started to see what he could do.

Guan Xi: “I didn’t see anything you did.”

Jiang Suizhou looked back at her: “I won’t poison you, just take a shower.”

Guan Xi: “…Oh.”

Jiang Suizhou seemed to have to do what he had to do, so Guan Xi finally stopped stopping him, and quickly went back to the bathroom to take a shower, then changed into a comfortable suit and came out.

Jiang Suizhou was still in the kitchen, looking at the back, he was calm.

Guan Xi walked behind him and looked at the pot: “Steak?”

Jiang Suizhou pinched the time on his watch and turned over: “There’s nothing special in her refrigerator, this steak is barely okay.”

Guan Xi was surprised: “Would you do such a difficult task?”

Jiang Suizhou gestured to the mobile phone on the bottom: “Internet access.”

Guan Xi shyly stood up straight: “I was also Baidu before.”

“You mean your potato brisket?” Jiang Suizhou recalled and frowned, “Maybe you are not talented enough.”

“…”

Jiang Suizhou: “Okay, go and sit, it will be ready soon.”

This is so scary.

Guan Xi sat at the dining table, feeling a little psychedelic.

The two dogs actually cook, and they still look the same.

“Try it.” Jiang Suizhou brought out the things.

Guan Xi glanced at the steak, eggs, broccoli and other accessories on the plate, and did not move for a long time.

Seeing this, Jiang Suizhou sat down next to her, moved the plate over, picked up the knife and fork and started to cut. After cutting the first piece, he put it in his mouth first, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, then honestly commented: “It’s not poisonous, it’s medium cooked, and it tastes okay.”

After he finished speaking, he cut another piece, forked it and handed it to Guan Xi’s mouth: “Eat.”

Guan Xi’s eyes moved from his face to the piece of meat, and from that piece of meat to his face.

The dining room was brightly lit, and his hair and face fell into a layer of white light, looking clean and tidy. At this time, he was still wearing a high-definition shirt, the collar was unbuttoned, and the sleeves were folded.

It is obvious that this person has an air of dignity that does not touch the spring water from the hair to the fingers, but this moment is the interpretation of the “gentle and virtuous” style.

Guan Xi was a little speechless for a while, maybe it was because of the ghost, she really opened her mouth.

Jiang Suizhou handed the piece of meat in.

Guan Xi chewed silently for a while, “Well…”

“How.”

“Is it really medium rare? It’s a little hard.”

Jiang Suizhou frowned: “Really, it is said on the Internet that according to this time point, it is half cooked.”

“But I don’t think it’s seven points, the taste… It’s a little salty.” Guan Xi acted as a human body, etc., slowly raising the bar, “Do you think the taste is okay? I don’t think it’s good…”

Jiang Suizhou knew Guan Xi’s temperament, and when she wanted to find fault, she could start at 365 degrees.

So he didn’t refute, and cut another piece to feed her, “The first time there is room for improvement, but compared to what you did before…you should be able to feel the difference.”

Miss Guan opened her mouth to eat the meat, speechless, the dish she cooked before was indeed a bit touching.

Jiang Suizhou: “Eat more and go to bed when you’re full.”

Speaking of sleeping, Guan Xi also remembered that it was already late at night, and she actually ate steak late at night… What a hell.

She stopped the fork that Jiang Suizhou was about to hand over. Just when she was about to say that she couldn’t eat any more, there was a sound of opening the door.

“Xixi, I’m back.” Lang Ningyi’s voice came, “Are you at home? Haven’t you slept yet? Hey, the two dogs in your family didn’t treat you well-“

When Lang Ningyi finished saying this, she had already walked in, and there was a slightly excited drunkenness on her face when she came in. However, when she saw Guan Xi and Jiang Suizhou sitting on the dining table, her excitement disappeared like a low tide.

“…”

“…”

Looking at each other, Lang Ningyi took a step back, her face a little stiff.

Guan Xi: “I’m back, are you hungry, do you want something to eat? Steak?”

Lang Ningyi laughed dryly: “This… President Jiang, you are also at my house.”

Jiang Suizhou: “Well.”

“…Where are you having supper?” Lang Ningyi glanced at the plate that was obviously his own tableware, “Did you make it yourself?”

Guan Xi immediately said: “I didn’t want to do it myself, he took your steak forcibly, it’s none of my business.”

Jiang Suizhou: “I’m sorry, if Miss Lang needs it, next time I’ll ask the assistant to bring over a few more steaks.”

“No, no, no!” Lang Ningyi was shocked by the fact that Jiang Suizhou personally cooked for Guan Xi at her house, “It’s okay if you don’t need to deliver.”

Lang Ningyi took a few steps back, “Then what, go ahead, go ahead, I’ll go back to my room to rest first. Don’t worry! Our house is well soundproofed, so I can’t hear you.”

Guan Xi: “…?”

With a bang, Lang Ningyi ran into his bedroom, isolated from the world.

Jiang Suizhou got up when he saw this: “Since your roommate is back, I’ll go first.”

“Oh.”

Guan Xi’s cheeks were bulging because the piece of meat he cut just now was a little bigger.

Jiang Suizhou looked at her with a smile in his eyes, and naturally reached out and touched her head: “Eat more, you are already very thin.”

“…”

Guan Xi felt that the back of his head was hot.

**

the next day.

Guan Xi woke up and had breakfast, went to the study, and confirmed the next meeting time with several companies. They knew about her “works” on the Internet, but she still needed to check their environment on the spot. .

After confirming it, the phone on the side rang.

Guan Xi glanced at the caller ID, sighed, and picked it up.

“Hey.”

“Hey, Xixi.”

“grandmother.”

Cui Mingzhu: “What are you doing? Are you still used to it at Ning Yi’s house?”

Guan Xi: “I’m quite used to it.”

“Oh… That’s right. You also know that it will be your grandfather’s birthday in two days. Grandpa really wants you to come. Look, you were there every birthday before. If it’s vacant this year, your grandfather will be very sad.”

Cui Mingzhu’s “secretly persuaded her to go home” has been repeated many times in the past few days. She can push other excuses, but she can’t say no to her grandfather’s birthday.

When she didn’t know the truth, what she was sad about was Wei Shaomin’s preference for Guan Ying. After knowing the truth, this sadness turned into embarrassment and resentment. She had absolutely no expectations for Wei Shaomin, but she had a great sense of contradiction for Guan Xinghao, who had petted her since childhood and owed her everything.

He didn’t know the truth about his mother’s pregnancy at the beginning, but it’s true that he did something wrong and hurt his mother.

It is true that he concealed himself and made her deeply self-doubt during these days, but it is also true that he spoiled her and loved her since she was a child and made her grow up happily.

She believed that if Guan Ying never came back, he would keep her in that ivory tower without telling her the truth for the rest of his life. But the reality is that Guan Ying is back, everything is dislocated, and everything is unearthed.

She resents Guan Xinghao, so she has been reluctant to answer his phone and see him. But deep down in her heart, someone was fighting with another one of her. Guan Xinghao did something wrong, but the kindness to her from childhood to adulthood could not be erased.

Cui Mingzhu: “Grandma knows that you are still angry. I have scolded him severely on your father’s side. He has been blaming himself recently. He said that he should have told you earlier, but he is really afraid that you will resent him… Xixi, our family can say that we are sorry for your mother, if it wasn’t for your father’s unexpected bastard, grandparents would have hoped that your mother would come in.”

“Grandma, I know, don’t talk about it again…”

“Okay, okay, grandma just wants to tell you that we all love you and value you very much.” Cui Mingzhu said, “You, you will always be the eldest miss of our Guan family. This will never change.”

…

Cui Mingzhu said a lot later, Guan Xi couldn’t stand it anymore, and said that he would attend grandpa Guan Hong’s birthday party. When Cui Mingzhu heard that she was relieved, she hung up the phone happily.

Two days later, Guan Xi brought a coat that he specially bought at the mall to give to today’s birthday grandfather, and the money was still taken from Lang Ningyi’s account. Of course, in Lang Ningyi’s distrustful eyes, she swore that if she got the money after working, she would return it to her.

Guan Hong likes to be lively, and he always invites a lot of people during his birthday banquet. Every year, this group of juniors can gather together. When Lang Ningyi and Guan Xi arrived at the Guan family’s old house together, relatives and friends, they met acquaintances all the way through the door.

After that, she went to the living room where her grandparents were. Sure enough, Guan Xinghao was there.

Seeing her come in, Guan Xinghao stood up suddenly, he looked at her, the face of the person who had been in the high position for a long time was full of embarrassment at this time.

“Xixi…”

Guan Xi was suffocated, looked at him without calling anyone, and went straight to Guan Hong’s side: “Grandpa, happy birthday, this is a gift from me.”

Guan Hong’s face bloomed when he saw Guan Xi coming over: “Okay, okay, Xixi has a heart.”

“Well, I hope my grandfather’s life is as blessed as Donghai’s birthday is as long as Nanshan.” Guan Xi smiled, “I want to celebrate my birthday today, that… I still have something to do, so I’ll go first.”

“Hey—” Guan Hong immediately grabbed her wrist, “Why don’t you leave, who said you can leave now.”

Guan Xi: “I still have something to do…”

Guan Hong could see through her little Jiujiu at a glance. Today, he finally wanted his granddaughter back. It is impossible to let her leave. Guan Hong pretended to be angry and said, “You are very unfilial, what is more important than your grandfather’s birthday? I don’t care, you are not allowed to leave tonight, sit and chat with grandparents.”

Guan Xi: “…”

Lang Ningyi saw that Guan Xi was detained by the two old men, so she didn’t bother, walked outside the yard, and said hello to a few familiar friends.

“Ning Yi, Guan Xi didn’t come today?” someone asked.

Lang Ningyi: “Of course I’m here. In the back room, I was left behind by Grandpa Guan.”

“Wei Shaomin didn’t show up today, but Guan Ying is here. Have they met?” This group of people didn’t say anything on the surface, but they were very curious about the Guan family.

“We just arrived, what are we meeting?” Lang Ningyi asked strangely, “What happened when we met?”

“We are all curious about Guan Xi’s attitude. Before, we thought that Guan Xi was not biological, and many people felt that Guan Ying had a chance to win. After all, Guan Xi was forced to take the initiative to leave the Guan family. Now, the situation has completely reversed. what.”

Lang Ningyi sneered: “Che, our family Xixi didn’t take her seriously.”

“Isn’t that right, I heard that Grandpa Guan intends to transfer Guan’s shares to her in order to compensate Guan Xi, and there are still a lot of real estate and various funds that are going to be allocated to Guan Xi… Eh, Guan Xi is going to heaven. “

“Ah?” Lang Ningyi said in shock, “Really? How come I don’t know.”

“This is what I heard from my parents. It hasn’t been implemented yet. Guan Xi may not know it.”

Lang Ningyi was stunned and looked back. Does this rich woman who is going to work inspirational know that she is going to be very rich…

**

Guan Xi chatted with the two old men in the back room for a long time, finally coaxing him to say that he would not sneak away, so they let her go and let her go for a walk outside the yard.

After coming out of the back room, she saw Lang Ningyi at the pavilion from a distance, and she walked straight over. But after getting closer, I found that on the right side of the pavilion were several familiar faces that I didn’t really want to see. Such as Wei Zihan, such as Guan Ying.

Guan Xi didn’t look at them much, and walked over to Lang Ningyi without looking sideways.

“Guan Xi, you’re here.” The friend greeted her, and this sound also attracted the attention of other people who were chatting.

A group of people greeted Guan Xi to sit over, and Guan Xi sat down on the main seat given up by others.

“Guan Xi, long time no see. If I hadn’t come to celebrate Grandpa Guan’s birthday with my dad this time, I wouldn’t have seen you.”

“Yes, yes, eh, your clothes look so good. Is it today’s season?”

“Guan Xi, where did you do your skin? Every time I see you, you are in such good condition.”

“My birthday next week, do you want to come and play? Let’s go to the island together.”

“I have an art exhibition on the weekend. I’ll give you the tickets later. Come and have a look.”

…

Aside from Lang Ningyi, there are some peers who are not very familiar with Guan Xi, but followed their elders to congratulate Guan Hong on his birthday. Guan Xi is used to this battle, and only has a few words of reconciliation. Most of the time he is with Lang Ning. Yi chat.

Lang Ningyi: “Someone said that your grandfather will send you treasures, is it true?”

Guan Xi rubbed the wall of the cocktail glass with his fingertips: “I just said it.”

“Then what do you say?”

“I said I’m going to do what I like.”

Lang Ningyi took a breath: “Then what?”

“Then grandpa said it doesn’t matter. What he gave him, I played with me.” Guan Xi said dissatisfiedly, “What do you mean by playing with me? Am I playing? I am serious, okay?”

Lang Ningyi immediately gave a thumbs up: “I think Grandpa is right! Oh, I mean ‘this doesn’t affect’!”

Guan Xi glanced at her.

Lang Ningyi said: “In the beginning, since you don’t like handling company affairs very much, then you should be a major shareholder, and leave the small things to the people below, and do what you like.”

Guan Xi opened his mouth to say what he wanted to say, and Lang Ningyi said again, “Student Guan Xi! It takes a few days to have the noble morality of showing money as dung, and you have to take it! Those are things that originally belonged to you. I don’t want it anymore, I have to put it all into Guan Ying’s pocket.”

Guan Xi was stunned and glared at her: “Dream.”

“Really?!” Lang Ningyi whispered, “Anyway, it’s what your grandfather gave you. It’s your grandfather, right? It’s so nice to you, so don’t be polite. Leave it to Guan Ying.”

…

Guan Xi is naturally not a human who really “shows money like dung”, but she suddenly has some consciousness and wants to do something she likes.

Some of Lang Ningyi’s words are still right. Guan Ying must not be allowed to pick up the slack. If she lets go out like this, I’m sorry for her mother who has already left.

Guan Xi sat there for a while, but then the people around her were talking too much. She didn’t want to listen any more, so she got up and walked away. I wanted to go to a quiet place, but when I walked through the corridor, I met Guan Ying.

Guan Ying happened to be standing in the center of the door, and Guan Xi walked over and said, “Rang Rang.”

Guan Ying moved to the side, Guan Xi nodded slightly and walked over.

“…Aren’t you very proud now?” Suddenly, Guan Ying’s voice came from the side.

Guan Xi raised his brows slightly and stopped: “Proud? What are you proud of?”

Guan Ying gritted her teeth, and her eyes were a little red when she raised her eyes again: “Everyone is flattering you, everyone is centering on you… Mom has left Guan’s house now, aren’t you very proud?”

Guan Xi laughed, and said casually when he spoke again: “Guan Ying, your mother left because they didn’t get along. It’s all about their generation, and it’s none of my business.”

“…”

“And the first half of your sentence. Oh, maybe you don’t know, it’s not uncommon to flatter me for being my center. I’ve been like this since I was a child, so what’s so good about it.”

Guan Xi’s ability to stab people unceremoniously from the top is back.

Guan Ying’s complexion changed slightly. She has not had a good time these days. People in this circle have always looked down on her. Now that Guan Xi’s name is correct, these people are even more aggressive.

The parents quarreled, and it seemed that the situation was not good. There are also grandparents, brothers and sisters who are obviously biased towards Guan Xi. In their eyes, she is nowhere near as good as her.

“Is this fair?” Guan Ying pursed her lips tightly, “Why…”

“I’m Guan Xi!” Guan Xi smiled, but she was really impatient. Why, why, why did she have so much.

“Guan Ying, be smart, don’t talk about it in front of me. I’ve heard your complaints once, and you’re fair to me? Did I cause you what happened before? Do I need to compensate you? What’s up with me?”

“No one between us owes anyone. Oh no, you still owe me. I still remember what you said to me at the door of my room last time, but I just don’t hold you accountable. So listen carefully, in the future I can tolerate you if you keep yourselves safe, if you can’t, you have to be pitiful in front of others…”

Guan Xi lifted her chin, “Believe it or not, I can make you more transparent.”

Guan Xi is not someone to be easy to provoke. Guan Ying had always heard Wei Zihan say this before, but she had only heard her say it. To be honest, she had never faced it before and felt it.

But at this moment, when Guan Xi was no longer restrained at all and really started to hostile to her, Guan Ying only found that the sense of oppression that came face-to-face made people panic. As if she really did what she said in the next second, she would be more transparent in the eyes of everyone.

Guan Ying’s lips moved, her face pale.

Guan Xi put his hands around his chest, and after the hostility subsided, he tried to calm down as much as possible: “I said, you should have this kind of awareness now. Contentment? Yes, that’s the word, you have a lot, don’t you?”

Just the fact that she has a mother is enough to make her sour.

Guan Xi snorted softly: “Didn’t the Wei family treat you very well? Why do you say you put your eyes everywhere? Can you eat it?”

Guan Ying bit her lip: “I am also a member of the Guan family.”

“Yeah, no one said you weren’t.” Guan Xi stared at her, “But compared to your sister and me, you don’t have that much weight in the Guan family, understand?”

The matter of Guan Xi’s mouth poisoning spread, Guan Ying was her opponent, and finally her face was pale, and it seemed that she didn’t want to hear what Guan Xi said anymore, so she turned her head and left.

Guan Xi looked at her back, his eyes slightly cold. Xiao cabbage really wanted to act as a steak in front of her, and didn’t even see if she was qualified.

In the past, she was polite to her because she felt deep down that she might have really taken her place, and it was also because of Wei Shaomin. But now… Wei Shaomin, she doesn’t care about her anymore.

The once mother-daughter bond has completely disappeared because of past mistakes and later eccentricities.

Guan Xi stood there for a while, and wanted to walk to the other end of the corridor again, but as soon as he turned around, he saw two people standing there not far ahead, one Song Li and one Jiang Suizhou.

Guan Xi was stunned: “…When did you come?”

Song Li silently greeted him and said with a smirk, “Just now, just now.”

Jiang Suizhou stepped up, and Guan Xi asked, “Are you eavesdropping on me just now?”

Jiang Suizhou: “It’s not eavesdropping, just passing by.”

Guan Xi: “Then you can’t just pass by, you have to listen to me and Guan Ying before showing up.”

“No, I want to see it.”

Guan Xi: “Want to… want to see?”

Jiang Suizhou turned his head slightly. Today, Guan Xi was wearing a pair of high heels with straps. These shoes were about ten centimeters long, which brought her and him closer. She would be imposing, and she seemed to have thorns all over her body.

Jiang Suizhou looked at her and said, “This is what suits you.”

“what?”

Jiang Suizhou didn’t answer, but said, “I made the steak for you a few days ago and then I went back and tried it a few times.”

“Huh? Then what?”

“Then I found out that it might depend on the type of cow, and the frying time for different steaks is different.” Jiang Suizhou said, “I have already researched it, and the time is almost ready. Come and try it at home tomorrow.”

Didn’t this person say before that he had nothing to do when he went into the kitchen, so why did he actually study it himself.

Guan Xi was so shocked that he had to stumble again: “I, I have something to do. I have something important to do tomorrow, so I won’t go.”

Guan Xi has an appointment with someone for an “interview” tomorrow, which is really something.

“I’m going to find Grandpa again. Let’s go first.” After that, Guan Xi stepped on high heels, and walked very fast.

Song Li chased after seeing Guan Xi leaving.

“Hey, what did you say?”

Jiang Suizhou: “It’s nothing, let her come to the house for dinner tomorrow.”

“She agreed?”

“no.”

Song Li snorted: “If you break up, forget about it. You… brother, you are a little persistent.”

Jiang Suizhou’s eyes fell on Guan Xi’s distant back, but he didn’t say anything.

Song Li: “Hey, you heard it just now, this eldest lady is really difficult to deal with. You can see how fierce Guan Ying’s posture is, ordinary people can’t stop her.”

Jiang Suizhou: “There’s nothing wrong with what she said.”

“That’s right, but our eldest miss is too arrogant.” Song Li asked, leaning on his shoulders, “It’s true that people are very beautiful, but their temperament is really powerful. From childhood to adulthood, there is no domineering only More domineering. Say, what do you like about her?”

Jiang Suizhou pondered for a moment, and said lightly: “I like her beautiful and domineering.”

“…”
