Chapter 1740 - 1740 You're Really Amazing!

1740 Youre Really Amazing!

Only Su Bei was still stirring the soup in the bowl. However, she was not a fast eater to begin with, so Lin Xiruo didnt find it strange and only looked at her gently.

Um, honey, can you help me get some milk from the fridge? He Jiang asked.

Lin Xiruo naturally went without hesitation.

As soon as she turned around, He Jiang immediately picked up Su Beis soup and drank it in one gulp.

Su Beis lips twitched as she looked at him. She really admired her father!

What a man!

The greasy but sweet sea cuc.u.mber soup had a strong fishy smell. Su Bei almost vomited at the first mouthful. Yet her father could actually drink it all in one gulp.

She gave He Jiang a thumbs-up!

He Jiang reached out and stroked her hair. He could just finish the soup himself. Why make things difficult for his precious daughter?

Lin Xiruo gave He Jiang a small carton of milk and another one to Su Bei. What else do you want to eat? Ill get it.

No need. Im very full, Su Bei quickly replied and pointed at the empty bowl in front of her.

Only then did Lin Xiruo reveal a satisfied smile.

After He Jiang received a business call and left, Lin Xiruo sat in front of Su Bei and asked with a smile, How was the sea cuc.u.mber soup?

It was good.

Tell me the truth, Lin Xiruo asked.

Seeing that Lin Xiruo didnt look like she was faking it, Su Bei asked honestly, Mom, did you get confused between the sugar and salt?

Oh, I think so. What else?

Did you put in the organs of the sea cuc.u.mber too? Su Bei said uncertainly.

Sea cuc.u.mbers have internal organs?

Alright, youre really amazing!

Su Bei asked curiously, How do you know that the soup doesnt taste good?

If the soup was delicious, how could your father drink it all without leaving me a sip? Also, he usually goes to get the milk himself. When does he ever order me around? Lin Xiruos gaze was gentle as she thought of her husband.

Su Bei usually felt that what she had with Lu Heting was already the best kind of love, but when she looked at her parents, she was still sincerely envious.

Decades had pa.s.sed, but their relations.h.i.+p was still the same. It was really rare.

Lin Xiruo smiled and said, Dont tell your father that I know about the soup.

She would practice more and work hard.

Got it. Su Bei nodded and said with a smile, Im not a traitor.

She felt so happy to be their daughter!

Although Old Madam He was not completely satisfied with Xu Zhiqin and He Xuyans relations.h.i.+p, He Jiang and Lin Xiruo supported Xu Zhiqin wholeheartedly. Su Bei often said some good things about Zhiqin in front of her too. Seeing the smile on He Xuyans face, Old Madam Hes att.i.tude had indeed changed a lot.

Im really old. I cant dissuade you young people anymore, Old Madam He said. The He family has a business banquet tomorrow night. Xuyan, bring Zhiqin and attend it together.

As long as Xu Zhiqin was qualified to handle such an occasion and was able to receive people with ease, Old Madam He could reluctantly be at ease.

This was her standpoint and a test.

He Xuyan naturally knew that his grandmothers att.i.tude was gradually relaxing. He nodded and said, Zhiqin and I will be prepared.

Then can I go too? Su Bei asked.

Old Madam He immediately smiled gently and said, Of course, you have to go. Youre the precious daughter of our He family, so how can you not go? Be good and dress up well before going. Also, Ill get the butler to bring over the set of jewelry I had when I was young. You can wear it. Youll definitely look good in it.

Thank you, Grandma! Su Bei raised her eyebrows and smiled. I just dont know if I can pull off the jewelry you wore when you were young. Your appearance must have far exceeded mine when you were young. Im afraid I cant compare to you.

Hahahahaha. Old Madam He laughed out loud. How is that possible? You definitely pull it off. When the time comes, you have to put on the jewelry, do you understand? Youre the best-looking person in our family. If you cant pull it off, no one can.

Ever since Su Bei had come back, Old Madam He had been smiling a lot.

There was originally some rift between Lin Xiruo and the old madam. However, seeing that the old madam treated Su Bei with sincerity, Lin Xiruo opened her heart and no longer cared about the small matters from back then.

What about Dad and Mom? Are they coming with us? Su Bei asked again.

He Jiang looked at Lin Xiruo, asking for her opinion.

Since Lin Xiruo could attend the business banquet with both her children, she naturally had to go.

Su Bei and Zhiqin are both new here. I have to accompany them, Lin Xiruo said with a smile.

He Jiang immediately said, Well go.

The power dynamic between the two was evident.

Old Madam He really couldnt bear to see her son like this. He was like this when he was young and was still like this when he was old. It was no wonder that He Xuyan followed in He Jiang footsteps and disobeyed his family.

However, He Jiangs treatment of Lin Xiruo reduced the number of messy disputes in the He family. This was also a good thing.

At the thought of this, Old Madam He felt a little better.

On the day of the business banquet, Lin Xiruo brought Su Bei and Xu Zhiqin to pick out their clothes and do their hair.

He Jiang and He Xuyan did not go to the company either. They became drivers and helped the women carry their bags.

Su Bei, dont you think that Zhiqins complexion has been especially good these past two days? When Xu Zhiqin was getting her makeup done, Lin Xiruo specially called Su Bei over to take a look.

Oh, right. Its very good. Su Bei reached out and poked Xu Zhiqins face.

Actually, the mother and daughter did not say anything special. However, Xu Zhiqins face suddenly turned red, and even the corners of her eyes were stained with a hint of red.

It was as if they had seen through something.

Lin Xiruo couldnt help but laugh. Okay, okay. Su Bei, lets get our makeup done too.

Only then did Xu Zhiqins expression return to normal. She looked at He Xuyan, who was waiting at the side, with a gentle gaze.

Soon, the three of them were ready.

Lin Xiruo was wearing a modified cheongsam. She exuded a calm temperament that had acc.u.mulated over time. Her hair was tied up behind her head, making her look imposing and elegant.

Xu Zhiqin, on the other hand, was wearing a nude long dress. She looked gentle and dignified. Her hair was coiled into a petal shape, but she still looked playful.

The nude dress made her skin look even more beautiful than snow.

Su Bei, on the other hand, knew that Old Madam He wanted to test Xu Zhiqins ability with the He familys business banquet tonight, not hers. Hence, she specially chose a slightly sweet-looking dress so that she would look like she was only attending the banquet with her parents and did not have any other intentions.

She chose a pair of earrings to wear out of the set of jewelry that Old Madam He had given her. She did not dress too grandly.

The three of them came out, and He Jiangs eyes lit up when he saw Lin Xiruo.

He smiled and reached out to hug her waist.
