1224 Side Story 3: Princess Ah Li and the Little Princess

Everyone at the table looked over.

Fang Yunyi quickly asked, Ah Li, are you okay?

Lu Huaiyus warm and strong palm fell on her back, stroking her gently.

Shen Lis face turned red and she waved her hand, I-Im fine

!!

Lu Huaiyu waited for her to finally calm down before he raised his thin lips and said, Grandpa, alcohol tolerance isnt something that can be trained in a day or two. It needs to be done step by step, dont you think?

He paused, filled her cup with water, and handed it to her before adding, Also, you have to take Ah Lis health into consideration. Its not good to drink too much at once or too often.

Shen Li was speechless.

Under the table, she used her foot to step hard on his foot.

Lu Huaiyu paused his movements to raise an eyebrow at her.

Her eyes were fixed on the cup in front of her, and her ears had turned red. The stomp she gave him seemed to be so weak that she did not know if it came across as a threat or an alluring move.

When Old Master Lu saw Shen Lis face was flushed from coughing, he felt his heart ache. He nodded, Right! Right! Huaiyus words make sense!

Everyone in the family knew that Ah Li could not hold her liquor well. It really depended on ones physique and experience.

Originally, he had thought that everyone could go on a trip together where Ah Li could practice, but seeing how nervous she was at the mention of drinking, how could he bear to pursue this any idea further?

Actually, its fine. If Ah Li doesnt like it, then you shouldnt drink! In any case, Huaiyu is here, just let him help you block it!

She was the daughter-in-law of the Lu family and the little princess of the Gu family. Unless she was willing, who had the right to persuade her to drink?

Ive heard that the scenery in Bai City is very beautiful in autumn. Ill look up a strategy guide first, then well go together?

Although Old Master Lu wanted to have a family vacation, he still planned to give them some time for their honeymoon considering that they were newly married.

At this point, Shen Li obviously had no way to resist.

She took a sip of water to moisten her throat and nodded obediently.

Im fine with anything. Ill go with Grandpas suggestions.

When Old Master Lu heard her say this, he was extremely happy.

Alright! Ah Li, you dont know this, but I won the lottery again!

Everyone at the table fell silent for a moment.

Shen Li paused, then slowly looked up and smiled.

Is that so?

Yup! It was from the same person! You know that big fan of yours, right? She organized a lucky draw recently, and I won the second prize!

Old Master Lu felt that his luck at winning the lottery was really good, especially after he had become a fan of Ah Li.

It must be thanks to Ah Li! Oh right, the prize should be sent to our house in two days. The only pity is that its not the first prize. I heard that there were surprise eggs in the gift box set for the first prize!

However, the second prize was already very good. Old Master Lu merely sighed as he looked at her earnestly.

Ill show it to you when Ive received it.

Ever since Shen Li had discovered the bookmark, Old Master Lu had decided to go all out and began to openly collect the cartoon Ah Li merchandise at home. Cups, pillows, postcards, and so on, all with the cartoon Ah Li printed on them could be seen everywhere.

Shen Li had wanted to reject him, but when her gaze met Old Master Lus eyes that were filled with antic.i.p.ation, she changed her mind and changed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Anything is fine, as long as its convenient for you.

Convenient?

Every day was convenient for him!

Old Master Lu mumbled, However, I dont know what the surprise egg is. It seems like only that set has it. I dont know if Ill have another chance to win it again in the future.

Many people were speculating, but Sister Carp had returned to her usual n.o.ble and cold demeanor and was unwilling to reveal anything.

Old Master Lu was anxiously waiting.

Yunyi, look, I told you to pay more attention to Ah Lis Weibo page! You use Weibo anyway, so you should repost it. Maybe youll win the lottery next time!

Fang Yunyi coughed lightly.

Dad, Im not as lucky as you when it comes to winning.

As she spoke, she picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish for Shen Li.

Ah Li, please try this. I made it myself!

Shen Li looked at the sweet and sour fish in the bowl, which was definitely beautiful and fragrant, and a touch of surprise flashed across her face.

She had seen Fang Yunyis cooking skills, which were on par with Elder Yus.

But now

She picked up the sweet and sour fish and ate it.

Fang Yunyi looked at her with excitement and antic.i.p.ation.

How is it? How is it?

Shen Li looked up, with her bright peach-shaped eyes curved into a beautiful arc.

Its delicious. Thank you, Mom.

Fang Yunyi felt as if her heart had exploded.

Ah!

She was so cute!

She took a light breath and tried to put on a dignified smile.

Its good that Ah Li likes it. I learned this sweet and sour fish recipe from a food blogger on the Internet. Its very simple. Since I had the time, I studied the recipe and attempted to make it today. I didnt expect to succeed in one try.

As she spoke, she pushed back the loose strands of hair by her ear. Then, calmly and nonchalantly, she then continued to speak.

Theres also beef with celery, c.u.min lamb chops, and shrimp congee with abalone and apricot mushrooms. Ah Li, please have a taste of all of them.

Shen Lis lips curved.

Alright, she said.

After lunch, Shen Li was dragged by Old Master Lu to play chess.

Ah Li, Mei Yanqing said that you used to play chess with him. If you were him, what would he do?

Old Master Lu pointed at the chessboard that had already been set up.

Shen Li took a look and was silent for a moment.

It looked like this was where Old Master Lu had lost previously

She picked up a chess piece, and after thinking for a moment, she placed it.

Old Master Lu came to a realization.

Argh! So it was this! Why didnt I think of Cough!

He then looked at Shen Li guiltily. She probably had not heard it, had she?

Lu Huaiyu pinched the bridge of his nose and got up to help her get some juice.

However, after walking for a while, he heard Fang Yunyis voice from behind the screen.

Lu Zheng! Did you hear that? Did you hear that? My daughter said it was delicious! She even said Thank you, Mom!

Her efforts all this time had not been in vain!

Lu Huaiyu stopped in his tracks.

Following that, she heard Lu Zheng say with a smile, Yes, hard work can make up for it,

Fang Yunyi clutched her chest, but she did not hear the teasing tone in his words.

Im going to cook for her for the rest of her life!

The two men on either side of the screen fell silent at this.

Lu Huaiyu walked over.

Fang Yunyi and Lu Zheng both looked over at him.

Lu Huaiyu restrained himself and said, Mom, let me remind you again. Thats my wife.

Fang Yunyi was unconcerned about her sons reminder.

What a joke. How could he control her daughter?

In her high heels, she walked around the screen, looking like the n.o.ble and beautiful Mrs. Lu again.

Ah Li.

She walked toward Shen Li with a bag in her hand.

I saw a loose diamond a while ago, and it should be delivered here soon. When do you have time to go and pick a design with the designer? Or maybe you can design it yourself.

As she spoke, she took out her phone from her bag.

Let me show you the photo first

Thud.

Something had fallen out.

Shen Li looked over and her eyebrows twitched.

It was a car key, but the main point was the keychain hanging on it.

It was a figure of Ah Li in a princess dress.

But that was not the main point.

The main point was that Ah Li was wearing a princess dress with a small crown on her head. She was also holding another hand

The hand of another tiny princess.
