Ms. CEO is His Bodyguard - Chapter 30
“Father, you should give way. I’m your son!” Xia Jinhu tried to reason out. “Besides, you already ate half of this.”
However, Master Xia would not listen to whatever reasons Xia Jinhu gave, “Indeed, I am your father. Isn’t that reason enough for you to take a step back?”
Ever since, Xia Jinhu did not really like it when his father uses his superiority in dealing with him, so… “I’m going to tell on you to mother.”
“I’ll send you to your grandmother in Fei Country.” Master Xia threatened back.
However, Master Xia had underestimated Xia Jinhu’s love for food.
Xia Jinhu: “Then so be it!”
Master Xia had not expected that his son would rather be sent back to the grandmother he feared the most than to just give up the food.
Caught off guard by Xia Jinhu’s unpredictability, Master Xia’s hold on his chopsticks weakened.
Taking this opportunity, Xia Jinhu immediately put the roast pork into his mouth, faster than it would take a human eye to blink.
“You, you, you…” Master Xia raised his chopsticks and pointed it at Xia Jinhu, speechless at his son’s incredulous actions.
As they were fully immersed in their own world of delicious roast pork and such, Master Xia and Xia Jinhu had not noticed that someone had stepped into the former’s study.
The intruder glanced at the father and son duo, their eyes were gleaming with unforeseen jubilance.
Just as the intruder was about to leave, something caught their attention. Their expression hardened as their eyes fell on the camera that Xia Jinhu had left on the coffee table.
Slowly approaching the coffee table, the intruder picked the camera up and left the room as quietly as when they had entered.
The food fanatic duo were oblivious that someone had already infiltrated inside the study of Master Xia as they were too caught up in eating until the last bit of rice inside their bowls were wiped clean.
They just could not get enough of Wang Rouxi’s cooking!
The good thing was, Wang Rouxi had put in a generous amount of food inside the plastic containers!
It was like being brought back to life after being drowned in a sea of flavorful and savory dishes.
Xia Jinhu let out a contented sigh as he patted his bloated stomach. “I haven’t had such good food in a while.”
“Hmm…”
Master Xia would like to say the same thing but before he could do so, a knock was heard at the door.
The eyes of the two foodies met, their backs straightened as the door was slowly pushed open by the person who had just knocked.
They were doomed now.
Knowing his wife’s temperament, Master Xia could not help but shiver as the thought of having to eat vegetables for his whole life surfaced into his mind.
He would surely taste the wrath of Hua Jinqiu once she caught him red-handed.
Luckily, it was Xia Jiannan who emerged from the door, wearing casual clothes. “Father.”
When they saw that it was only Xia Jiannan, the two could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
“What is it, Jiannan? Is there something you need?” Master Xia inquired.
At the side, Xia Jinhu was just about to turn around when he suddenly remembered the camera that he had placed atop the coffee table.
“Damn.”
The busybody Xia Jinhu had his back drenched in cold sweat.
If his brother saw those pictures, it would surely be the end of him.
He dared not turn back, he just busied himself with cleaning up the table, afraid of what his brother might do to him.
This, however, caught his father’s attention, but Master Xia merely took a glance at him before turning back to Xia Jiannan.
“I will take Jinhu out toni–”
At that moment, before Xia Jiannan could even finish speaking of what he came here for, another knock resounded at the door.
“Dear, can I go inside?” Madam Xia’s melodious voice soon followed.
The three handsome men exchange glances before Xia Jiannan went to receive his mother at the door.
“Clean up quick! Your mother will see us.” Master Xia prodded Xia Jinhu.
In just a snap of a finger, everything that was on the table vanished from sight. It seemed as though nothing had transpired here tonight.
