Before going out, He Ka Lian Nuo, to save her face, thoughtfully applied makeup to her, covering the scars on her face, so as not to be seen.
"Ling Chuan!"
He Ka Yan Yi reprimanded lightly, "No profession is superior or inferior. Lian Nuo has always been interested in new things and is willing to learn with sincerity. This is something you still need to learn from her."
"I... Hmph..."
He Ka Ling Chuan snorted unhappily and sat down on the sofa unwillingly, sarcastically taunting, "You are the elder brother, everything you say is right."
"Hahaha... your brotherly affection is truly good. Seeing you reminds me of my youth, when I was exactly like His Highness the Fifth Prince."
Old Chen Tou cooperatively uttered a sentence, then said, "You young people chat together. I'll go to the study to handle some business first."
"Alright. Old Bei, you go ahead," He Ka Yan Yi said respectfully and courteously as he stood up.
Old Chen Tou nodded slightly at He Ka Yan Yi, turned, and went upstairs to the study.
In the study, He Xiao Lan Ya was sitting at the desk reading a book.
Hearing the sound in the room, she looked up and saw Old Chen Tou walking in. "They haven't left?"
Old Chen Tou closed the door and sighed, "They are going to have lunch here. He Ka Lian Nuo actually apprenticed herself to Tie Zhu Zi, asking him to teach her cooking. This little girl is not to be underestimated."
"Tie Zhu Zi is just an ordinary person. He Ka Lian Nuo is plotting something with him; perhaps she intends to win him over as a spy, it's hard to say."
He Xiao Lan Ya analyzed the situation.
"Listening to you, Tie Zhu Zi can indeed be used," Old Chen Tou also had his own calculations.
"No hurry, let's observe first."
"Yes, Madam Lan Ya," Old Chen Tou nodded in response, then added, "They are all dining downstairs. You will have to be inconvenienced here at noon."
"It's fine."
He Xiao Lan Ya didn't care about these things.
At noon, under He Ka Lian Nuo's help, Qing Mu Ye truly prepared a rich lunch, all local specialties of Lan Cheng.
Old Chen Tou, He Xiao Ming Jin, Meng Jing Wei, and the He Ka Yan Yi siblings gathered in the dining room, ready to dine.
At this moment, He Ka Lian Nuo stood up and said, "Wait. Lunch was personally made by my master, so my master must come and dine with us."
Meng Jing Wei also wished for Qing Mu Ye to sit and eat with her.
She was just hesitant.
Firstly, she worried about Qing Mu Ye's identity being exposed; secondly, she couldn't find a reasonable excuse to have him come to dine.
If she showed him too much concern, it would inevitably expose Qing Mu Ye.
At this moment, He Ka Lian Nuo took the initiative to suggest it, and she also went along with it, "Yes, Young Master Lian Nuo is right."
"How can a mere cook like him sit at the table to eat?" He Ka Ling Chuan strongly objected.
As soon as he finished speaking, He Ka Lian Nuo glanced at him, "Fifth Brother, do you think chefs are lowly? Don't forget that this entire table of dishes was made by him. Also, he, Tie Zhu Zi, is my master from now on, and I won't allow you to disrespect him!"
She adopted the demeanor of a Hidden Clan Young Master, her cold expression instantly exuding an oppressive aura.
He Ka Ling Chuan pursed his lips, snorted coldly, and said no more.
His aggrieved look was just like that of a little wife.
Meng Jing Wei realized that in front of He Ka Yan Yi and He Ka Lian Nuo, He Ka Ling Chuan had no say at all.
"Master, come and sit. Come to me."
He Ka Lian Nuo patted He Xiao Ming Jin's shoulder, "Brother Ming Jin, could you move a bit? I want my master to sit next to me."
He Ka Lian Nuo had He Ka Yan Yi on her left and He Xiao Ming Jin on her right, and directly opposite her was Meng Jing Wei.
