Chapter 2598 Zhan Xu
On the ninth day, Beibei pulled her into the house.
There was no one in the lobby; Ouyang Ya was working in her study upstairs.
She didn't go back to the company today, but there are some things she needs to handle. Her secretary will send them to her computer for her to process.
Zhan Yuan was in the kitchen preparing dinner.
Tonight we have guests; his most beloved niece is coming. He's preparing a sumptuous dinner, and he's doing most of the work himself, with the housekeeper just helping with washing the vegetables.
Beibei pulled Chu Jiu to the sofa and sat down, saying to Chu Jiu, "Ninth Sister, sit for a while, I'll go in and see if my Sixth Uncle needs any help."
"Beibei, let me go help Uncle Zhan. I'm responsible for the young master's three meals a day, and I think my cooking skills are passable."
On the ninth day, she got up to follow Beibei into the kitchen to help.
Beibei laughed: "Okay, let's all go help Uncle Liu."
She didn't treat Chu Jiu as an outsider.
The two people went into the kitchen.
"Sixth Uncle, do you need my help?"
"Uncle Zhan Liu".
Chu Jiu respectfully called out to Zhan Yuan.
She shouted along with Long Ting when talking to the Zhan family members.
"The ninth day has arrived."
Zhan Yuan smiled and said, "Beibei, you don't need to help here. Take Chu Jiu out to watch TV for a while, or go play outside for a bit. Uncle Liu will call you back for dinner when he has finished cooking."
"Chu Jiu, you have to have dinner with us tonight."
When Chu Jiu wanted to refuse, Bei Bei said, "If Ninth Sister isn't eating with us, I won't eat either."
"Beibei, you... okay, Ninth Sister promises you, I'll shamelessly have dinner with you all tonight."
I knew this girl meant what she said; if she said she wouldn't eat, she really wouldn't.
Chu Jiu couldn't bear to let Bei Bei go hungry.
"Uncle Zhan, let me lend a hand. I want to learn a few more dishes from you. Young Master is probably tired of the dishes I can cook now."
Chu Jiu worked hard to learn how to cook, all for the sake of her young master.
In Beibei's words, Chu Jiu's eyes and heart are full of Long Ting, but she puts herself in the position of a servant, which makes Long Ting extremely helpless.
The two had been together for eighteen years, growing up together and going through life and death together. They should have been the closest of friends, but Chu Jiu stubbornly refused to take a step forward.
Long Ting was burdened with a deep-seated blood feud, and he dared not consider important matters of life until he had avenged his family.
And so the two of them lived like that.
"Okay, then you can lend me a hand here."
“If Beibei has nothing else to do, she can lend a hand to Uncle Liu.”
Zhan Yuan smiled and left the two girls to help him.
The three of them worked hard, and by evening, a large table of dishes was ready.
The long dining table was filled to the brim.
The people eating were the same ones from lunchtime, except for the addition of Long Ting and Chu Jiu.
Chu Jiu sat next to Bei Bei, while Zhan Chi sat on Bei Bei's other side. Long Ting and Chu Jiu were separated by the two siblings, which was a deliberate arrangement by Bei Bei.
Chu Jiu cannot sit next to Long Ting, otherwise she will habitually stand behind Long Ting to serve him.
Everyone enjoyed the meal.
After the meal, Long Ting sat for half an hour before getting up to say goodbye.
"Long Ting, why don't you stay here for the night?"
Zhan Yuan warmly urged him to stay.
Long Ting politely declined Zhan Yuan's offer, saying, "I have an important meeting tomorrow morning, and two important contracts to sign. I'll stay at Uncle Liu's place tonight, and I need to rush back early tomorrow morning."
"That's too rushed. Let's go back tonight. We don't have anything to do tonight, so we can take our time."
He drove here, from H city to A city, a journey of more than two hours, because traffic jams in A city are particularly severe.
It's a little past seven now. By the time he gets back to his place in H City, it will probably be ten.
"Oh, okay then, I won't keep you any longer."
Zhan Chi brought over two bags filled with food and drinks. He handed one of the bags to Chu Jiu and said, "Ninth Sister, this is what my mom and Bei Bei prepared for you. You must accept it."
Chu Jiu hesitated and looked at Long Ting.
She had already eaten with everyone, so how could she possibly take Aunt Ya's things again?
Long Ting said calmly, "Just accept Aunt Ya's and Bei Bei's kindness. Don't make Bei Bei sad."
After he said that, Chu Jiu took the bag and thanked Ouyang Ya and the others.
Zhan Chi handed another bag to Long Ting, "Brother Ting, you have one too. This bag is yours. I don't know what's in it, but my mom and Bei Bei packed it."
Long Ting took the bag and said with a smile, "I won't stand on ceremony with you."
"If you dare to be polite to us, we won't even let you through the gate next time you come."
Zhan Chi deliberately threatened him.
Long Ting laughed.
He put his sunglasses and mask back on and left the main house, accompanied by Zhan Chi and Bei Bei.
"Beibei, Zhanchi, you don't need to see me off."
Long Ting got into the car, turned around and waved goodbye to the two people.
Beibei sat in the passenger seat, in the same car as Long Ting.
She can protect her young master when danger arises.
"Brother Ting, send us a message when you get home."
Beibei instructed, and then said to Chu Jiu, "Ninth Sister, you should eat and use the things we gave you. Don't waste the good intentions of me and Sixth Aunt."
For Chu Jiu, we prepared a box of top-quality bird's nest, two sets of skincare products, and a box of pastries.
Both Long Ting and Chu Jiu particularly enjoyed the pastries made by Zhan Yuan.
Both of their bags contained snacks. If only Long Ting was given some, even if he wanted to share with Chu Jiu, Chu Jiu wouldn't eat them.
Tonight, Bei Bei is present. Chu Jiu dotes on Bei Bei and goes along with her wishes; otherwise, she wouldn't have eaten with everyone, let alone accepted the gifts prepared by Ouyang Ya.
After watching Long Ting leave, Bei Bei said to Zhan Chi, "Fifth Brother, come for a walk with me to help with my digestion."
"it is good."
Just as the two were about to walk towards the backyard, Zhan Chi's younger brother, Zhan Xu, the fifteenth among his brothers, ran out of the house.
"Brother, sister, where are you going? Wait for me, I want to go with you."
Zhan Chi turned to see his younger brother running over and asked, "Have you packed your things? Don't you need to do your winter break homework?"
Zhan Xu is twelve years old and will be starting junior high school in September. He said, "I've already graduated, why should I do homework? I'll just enjoy a summer vacation without having to do homework."
"You can pack up the books later."
He stuffed all the books he brought back from school into the bookshelf.
Zhan Chi said, "I'll let you play for a week, and then you need to preview the junior high school material. If you don't understand something, just ask me."
"You can also ask anyone in your family."
Zhan Xu: "...Brother, can't you let me play for a summer vacation? I'll study hard after I start junior high."
He had excellent grades and hadn't even graduated from elementary school yet. The best middle schools in the city were all approaching him, trying to persuade him to attend their middle school.
Zhan Xu regards his older brother as a role model and has long decided to attend the prestigious middle school his brother used to study.
"I want to go back to my hometown. Everyone is on summer vacation, so I can go back and get together with my brothers."
Once he returned to his hometown, his older brother could no longer supervise his studies.
He can enjoy a summer vacation to his heart's content.
Zhan Chi knew his younger brother's thoughts perfectly well. He said, "Here, only I will take care of your studies. When we go back to our hometown, your older brothers will take care of your studies. Each of them will give you a set of test papers, enough to make you roll your eyes."
