Chapter 1872: Craving

“I was only telling you to get lost, I didn’t tell Jiaojiao to leave as well, damn you! You’re making me so angry!”

Nan Jiaojiao was standing right there; if they kept arguing, she might hear it. If the front wasn’t clear, the back would truly sound like chasing someone away, leading to misunderstandings, not to mention getting penalized by Chu Yao. It’s not worth the trouble just to win a verbal argument now.

“It’s okay, he’s just blurting stuff. Are you guys done? I’ll pour the sauce.”

Nan Jiaojiao held a piece of sliced ham in her hand. She said it was ready, and waited for Mo Tingshen to come over, biting the ham as she joined him.

Almost every time Chu Yao came back, the four of them would eat together. The handmade noodle tasted great; Nan Jiaojiao often thought, if Mo Tingshen hadn’t been born at the top of the pyramid, and didn’t have to worry about making a living, his cooking skills would ensure he always had food wherever he went.

After breakfast, Bo Yanching and Nan Jiaojiao went upstairs to change clothes; he was taking her to the film set.

Chu Yao’s flight was in two hours, she went back to sleep for a bit. Her suitcase was open, with everything inside haphazardly piled. Mo Tingshen tidied it up, folding everything neatly, placed her water bottle and face mask, then called her to wake up when the time was right, personally taking her to the airport.

This time she returned just to try on the wedding dress. Her figure hadn’t changed, and the measurements were fitting, only minor details needed tweaking. With Nan Jiaojiao overseeing everything, there wouldn’t be any mistakes. By the next time she came back, it should be for Nan Jiaojiao’s wedding.

During this time, everyone went about their tasks methodically. The Bo Family highly valued the wedding; no announcements were made to the Capital City, but Old Lady Bo’s relatives came to help, and Bo Yanching took Nan Jiaojiao to the old residence to meet the relatives one by one.

Old Lady had always been known for her good character, and her family was similar in behavior and temperament. Besides, everyone knew Nan Jiaojiao was Old Lady’s treasured one; they neither looked down on her, nor were they dismissive or eager to ingratiate themselves. They interacted just like normal family. Initially, Nan Jiaojiao felt a bit reserved, but after spending more time, she opened up.

The wedding date was getting closer.

Yet, there was still no word from Yaen Chi.

He had settled down in G City.

The pretty boy had quite a good family background, filthy rich. During the turbulence, he didn’t escape in a panic; his route had long been planned. He had an estate here with servants. Other than the labor workers, he had various concubines serving him.

Just during the time Yaen Chi stayed there, the pretty boy collected five or six beauties, none of whom could resist him, almost every day sticking close to his face, almost a different person each day.

His physique seemed rather frail, yet his needs in that regard were quite demanding, idle every day, rarely going out.

“Aren’t you worried you’ll get too wound up?” Yaen Chi accurately jabbed with sarcasm.

“Worried about what, home is so much fun!” The pretty boy patted the beauty sitting on his lap, “Go play with your girlfriends, I’m going to chat with my grandpa for a while, be good.”

The beauty was unwilling, but he coaxed her with a few words.

Thankfully, Yaen Chi was staying far away, unable to hear any commotion day or night.

“Grandpa, are you feeling cooped up? Shall I assign a couple of people to accompany you for a stroll in the afternoon?”

Yaen Chi ate slowly, his table manners were especially refined, reminiscent of nobility, never a crumb at his lips, his thin lips parting and closing elegantly with the food invisible as he chewed.

“Alright.”

“Grandpa, where do you want to go? The casino or the bar? I know some places that will definitely satisfy you.”

Yaen Chi wiped his mouth, crumpled the napkin and tossed it in the trash can, his brows gleaming, his voice relaxed with an unexplainable humor, “The casino, I’m itching for it.”
