The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 1559: Chapter 1559: Chu Liyuan’s Narcissism

"Little Jian, I really, I’m so happy right now that I don’t even know what to do."

"Whenever I think about Wang Jianzi just now, looking like he was in agony but still forcing himself to act tough, I feel downright ecstatic."

On the way back to the old house, Grandpa barely stopped talking.

Only now have I realized that Grandpa can be such a chatterbox.

Back at the old house, Grandpa was still in an extremely excited state.

"Chu Zhiyuan, that’s enough already." Granny finally couldn’t take it anymore and snapped.

As soon as Granny spoke up, Grandpa obediently shut his mouth.

Jian Dan’s lips curled upward as she leaned toward Chu Liyuan’s ear and whispered, "Granny’s words really work. Isn’t this what they call ’one thing overcoming another’?"

"Exactly! Don’t I just get completely tamed by you?" Chu Liyuan murmured ambiguously into Jian’s ear.

Jian Dan pursed her lips, glanced at Chu Liyuan, her mouth involuntarily curling up, but not wanting the "uncle" to catch her reaction, she hung her head low as if doing so would hide her expression.

(Oh, Jian Jian, you’re still too naïve. How could any of your little movements possibly escape Chu Liyuan’s sharp eyes?)

"Um, everyone’s staying for dinner tonight, alright? I’m so happy today that I just made a big decision earlier."

Jian Dan looked at Grandpa with anticipation.

Could it be that Grandpa was going to cook himself?

After all this time, she hadn’t yet tasted Grandpa’s cooking.

Grandpa raised the "uncle" all on his own, and he turned out so well—surely his cooking skills should be top-notch?

"Jian Jian, I think it’s better if we eat at Li Garden instead—I’ll cook for you!" Chu Liyuan directly grabbed Jian Dan’s hand and tried to walk out.

"Chu Liyuan, what are you doing? Not giving me any face?" Chu Zhiyuan called out to Chu Liyuan sternly.

"I didn’t go to the office today, so there’s a lot of work I need to take care of. It’s more convenient to eat at home."𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"No way. I finally made up my mind to personally cook tonight... to help Qingqin in the kitchen, and you guys can’t just not give me face!"

"Of course, we’ll give you face!"

"Uncle, didn’t you just say you had work to do?"

"I just thought about it, and it doesn’t seem that urgent. I can handle it tomorrow." Chu Liyuan pulled Jian Dan back to sit on the sofa.

"You brat!" Chu Zhiyuan shot Chu Liyuan a look before heading into the kitchen.

"Uncle, why do I feel like you’re acting a bit strange?" Jian Dan tilted her head and looked at Chu Liyuan with confusion.

"Jian Jian, you know how, if you’re upset, I’ll feel upset too, right?"

"Uh-huh!" Jian Dan nodded blankly.

"Then that’s enough!" Chu Liyuan affectionately patted Jian Dan’s head.

"Hmm?"

"Uncle, but you still haven’t answered my question!"

"Isn’t he just sparing some dignity for that old man?" Granny emerged from the kitchen at that moment, placing a plate of their favorite fruits in front of the two. "Dan Dan, you’ve never seen Grandpa cook, have you?"

"Nope!"

"Exactly, because his cooking is absolutely terrible."

"Huh? Then how did he manage to raise Uncle?" Jian Dan asked, utterly incredulous.

"So now you understand that growing up into the man I am today wasn’t easy for me, right?

To turn out like this, it’s entirely thanks to my naturally unbeatable good looks."

"Uncle, is this the first time I’ve discovered how narcissistic you are?" Jian Dan couldn’t believe the words she was hearing from Chu Liyuan.

"Doesn’t Jian Jian think so too?" Chu Liyuan pulled Jian Dan into his arms and asked her up-close.

"Yes, I do! My Uncle is the most handsome of all!"

Jian Dan lowered her head slightly, peeked upward through her eyes, and gave a double thumbs-up with both hands.
