Spring Breeze is First Class (017) The Art of Dealing with People Who Are Trying to Harm You (Part 2)
Yan Ruyu wanted to say more, but Ji Jiangnan suddenly stood up with a "huff".
"Hurry up and leave?"
Her face was like jade, with sparkling tears in her eyes, she didn't dare provoke him again, and turned to leave.
Ji Jiangyan stopped him again, his tone warning: "In the future, put away your clever tricks and don't harm others or yourself. Don't think I don't know what you've done, those things are crystal clear to me. Yan Ruyi, don't make me continue to look down on you!"
Yan Ruyu had difficulty breathing and almost fled. This time she was really wrong, to the point where she stood naked in front of Ji Jiangran, exposing all her ugly appearance.
All those she carefully disguised and meticulously maintained seemed to collapse in an instant.
Cried for a long time in the coffee shop, until receiving Jianbai's phone call, suddenly woke up a bit and thought of a way to make up for it.
"Mom, I'm coming right back. You wanted to eat crystal prawn dumplings tonight, didn't you? I'm buying ingredients now."
"Drive carefully."
This is her most powerful lifesaver now, she wants to be the daughter-in-law of the Ji family, marry Ji Jiangnan, and can only hold on tightly.
As long as Jianbai acknowledges it, he will force Ji Jiangyan to marry her. Even if Ji Jiangyan recognizes some of her original faces, he won't back down from this marriage. Moreover, the marriage between the two families has other more practical benefits as a guarantee. A clever man like Ji Jiangyan would never break up with her just because she says so.
Thinking of this, I finally feel a little more at ease. As for Gu Shangning, she had never really taken her seriously over the years, and if she was truly annoying, getting rid of her would be easy.
Ji Jiangying did not like Gu Qianrong and had no intention of marrying her, this was something that everyone knew.
Yan Ruyu thought on her way back home that she wanted to make an appointment with Anzi.
But then she thought better of it and picked up the phone. Smiling, she said: "Zi Xi, I've been thinking about you a bit. Tonight I'm making crystal prawn dumplings, why don't you come over with your brother, and bring that thing along too."
Anzi Xi is her good friend, and has a very good relationship with the Ji family. She often goes to the Ji's house to play, and Ji Mingyi and Jian Bai like Anzi Xi much more than Gu Shallow.
"I miss you too, okay, I'll discuss with Jiang Ying and see if there's nothing else going on tonight, then I'll go over."
Yan Ruyu rushed into the kitchen to make crystal shrimp dumplings, wanting to finish before the servants officially took over the kitchen to prepare dinner.
The more times she did it, the more handy and faster she became. Jianbai was preparing dinner when everyone else was eating together, she was talking to her friend on the phone, Yan Ruyu warmed up without bringing it up.
Ji Jiangying and Anzi returned together.
Anzi brought gifts for Ji Mingyi and Jianbai over, and the few of them chatted excitedly in the living room for a while before pulling him to the dining hall to eat.
Jian Bai said while walking: "I didn't know you were coming over, I didn't tell the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes."
Yan Ruyu said: "Mom, I've already told the kitchen that Zixi is coming over."
Jian Bai praised her for being sensible.
Ji Jiangying and Ji Jiangran changed clothes and came down from upstairs, gathered around the dinner table, only to find that Gu Shallow was missing.
Ji Jiangran raised his head and asked: "Where's Eldest Sister-in-law?"
Yan Ruyu lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Jian Bai glanced out of the hall; "Who knows where she went, no one has seen her all afternoon, she's been running around like a madman all day."
Ji Jiangying took out her phone and dialed her number, just as it rang at the entrance of the restaurant. Following the sound, Gu Qianqian walked over with her phone in hand.
"Sorry about that, I'm late."
Tonight's dishes are particularly rich and varied. Some dishes rarely appear on the Ji family's dinner table, but they did today. A few dishes are not the cook's strong suit, and the Ji family is picky about their food, so every time they want to eat, they order takeout or invite a chef from outside to come over.
Ji Mingyi couldn't help but pay first and praised without stopping.
"The dishes for tonight are done properly." Appetite opened up, went to eat other things.
Jianbai was too busy eating the crystal shrimp dumplings brought by Yan Ruyu to notice. It wasn't until Ji Mingyi mentioned it that he realized there were some differences. The craftsmanship is very beautiful, and each dish can be called a masterpiece of delicacy. He picked his favorite and nodded: "The craftsmanship is indeed good." He immediately called out to An Zixi: "Come, Zixi, you try some too."
Anzi analyzed according to her words, paid off, and praised the culinary skills of the chef in the Kuaiji family.
"Has your family changed cooks?"
Jian Bai shook his head: "Nothing has changed, the whole family is used to eating it, and there's no need to change." But today, this table of dishes really had a different flavor, and such a picky family all thought it was delicious.
On one side of the table was also a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings. Jian Bai saw it and asked Yan Ruyu, "Was that dish made by you too?"
Yan Ruyu looked back and saw that although they were all the same thing, their external forms were different.
"It wasn't me who did it, someone in the kitchen must have done it."
Jianbai ate one and praised it as delicious. The technique is even more delicate than Yanyu's, and the flavor has a distinct difference.
Until the waiter came up with another dish, Jian Bai asked: "What's going on with today's dishes?"
The housekeeper thought it was inedible and glanced at Gu Shallow Condensation, suddenly becoming tense: "What? Not to your taste, madam? It was made by the young mistress."
Gu Shallow Cong only then calmly raised her head: "It was me who did it. At home, I had nothing to do and my mom told me to learn from Ruyu, so I casually made a few dishes."
Her "casual" remark has really tormented many people. Even if a chef from a restaurant were to make something like this, it wouldn't be more pretentious than this.
Actually, Gu Shangning is not particularly talented in cooking. Due to her long stay abroad, she can't cook some authentic Chinese dishes well. She just picked a few of her specialties and shocked everyone.
But then again, for her profession, this is not a big deal. Most of them are involved in undercover work and have to switch identities frequently. In order not to reveal their true nature, they have to learn all sorts of skills. As they say themselves, the more versatile you are, the longer you'll live. So learning a bit of everything, including cooking, is only natural.
It's already her worst skill, but compared with these pampered people, it's simply astonishing.
Jian Bai had a moment of being swallowed by flies, she had never seen her so embarrassed before. Just this morning, she had scolded Gu Shallow Cong mercilessly, and then suddenly a basin of cold water was poured over her head.
Apart from her, others also looked at Gu Shallow Cong with different expressions.
Nowadays, Gu Qian Ning is like a thick book, flipping through page after page, and it's hard to finish reading.
Anzi turned to look at Ji Jiang's reflection, and was taken aback for a moment. He saw that his eyes were gazing at Gu Shallow Condensation like the sea, warm and profound, with an unpredictable ripple.
Ji Jiang's mouth curved downward, recalling the words Gu Shallow Cong had said earlier. She was a person who would settle scores, and didn't like to suffer losses. There was nothing more satisfying than this kind of revenge, it was even more refreshing than directly slapping two palms together.
