Chapter 60: A Strange Flower Seed
Chu Xiao Xi took care of everything domestically before she busied herself with her business abroad. Before leaving, Shen Qian Yun made plenty of the dishes she loved and drooled over.
“Grandma, how about you come to France with me? I’m not used to their food.” Chu Xiao Xi stood by the kitchen door and watched Shen Qian Yun as she worked. She then begged, “Xiao Xiao can cook, but I don’t know how.”
Over the half a month Shen Qian Yun has been in City B, Chu Xiao Xi has been getting more and more attached to her. She calls her grandma every other second, way more frequently than Gu Xiao Xiao.
“You, girl, has the sweetest mouth.” Shen Qian Yun brought over a plate of vegetables and asked her to put it on the table. “After you come back, I’ll cook whatever you like.”
When all the dishes were on the table, the doorbell rang. Chu Xiao Xi went to open the door and found Chu Yi Chen, who was here for a free meal.
“Xiao Xiao, come eat!” After Chu Yi Chen entered the room, Chu Xiao Xi shouted to Gu Xiao Xiao, who was in the study.
Once everyone was present, the four sat around the table, eating in peace.
As they chatted, Shen Qian Yun suddenly stopped and looked over to Gu Xiao Xiao, “Xiao Xiao, I was on the internet today and I saw a lot of people asking for Buo Duo Ye, Jie Yi, what kind of flower is that?”
Shen Qian Yun’s words made Gu Xiao Xiao and Chu Xiao Xi’s expression changed instantly. Chu Xiao Xi’s reaction was very exaggerated, she almost puked out the rice in her mouth.
“G… grandma…” Chu Xiao Xi suppressed her smile and asked out of curiosity, “How did you see that?”
“You girls are so busy every day doing your own thing. This condo is so big and it doesn’t have even a pot of flower. I wanted to grow a few pots of plants for you guys.” Shen Qian Yun answered seriously, “I don’t know what you young people like these days but Xiao Xiao did teach me to use the internet. So I did some research. But these flower names are strange and I’ve never heard of them before so I’m not sure what they look like.”
Shen Qian Yun’s words almost internally wounded Chu Xiao Xi. Gu Xiao Xiao was red in the face as well. With her head lowered, she didn’t dare to speak.
The internet age is very progressive. Plus, in recent years, many Japanese actresses came to China to pave the market. Even some games use these actors as their representatives. Even for those who have never seen those kinds of films, those Japanese actresses’ names are familiar. Gu Xiao Xiao was one of those people.
Gu Xiao Xiao was currently playing one of those games. The game company for that game hired the “Jie Yi” Shen Qian Yun had mentioned. Back then, she saw some photos of the actress promoting the game and thought she was pretty. When she searched her up, she realized the actress acted in those kinds of films.
Shen Qian Yun’s question completely startled Gu Xiao Xiao and she didn’t know how to answer. Helplessly, she snapped up her head and looked over the Chu Yi Chen.
Different from Gu Xiao Xiao and Chu Xiao Xi, Chu Yi Chen wasn’t at all fazed. It was as if he hasn’t heard anything at all.
Sensing Gu Xiao Xiao and Chu Xiao Xi’s gaze on him, Chu Yi Chen swallowed the food in his mouth quietly and then answered in a relaxed manner, “Grandma, do I look like someone who plants?”
“Not at all,” Shen Qian Yun answered with certainty, “You are busier than these girls. You wouldn’t have the time to tend to any flowers.”
