The three of them sat around the dining table with a steaming hotpot on the induction cooker.
They were greeted with a fragrance.
Chi Jiao had always thought that Quan Jue was an outstanding person, but she didn’t expect his culinary skills to be so good.
The taste of the hotpot soup was excellent. Coupled with the fresh seafood ingredients, one couldn’t stop eating.
Jiang Ming was enjoying himself even more.
However, although he was busy eating, it didn’t stop him from quietly examining both of them.
He remembered very clearly that Quan Jue couldn’t eat spicy food.
But now, the young man sitting opposite him was eating calmly except for drinking water frequently.
Chi Jiao and Quan Jue hadn’t eaten together many times, and Quan Jue didn’t show any signs of being picky in front of her. It seemed like he wasn’t picky about food at all.
Therefore, Chi Jiao had no idea that he couldn’t eat spicy food.
She picked up a piece of tripe that had been cooked in the spicy soup and placed it on Quan Jue’s plate.
The tripe was soaked in spicy soup, and it was obvious at a glance that they were extremely spicy.
However, Quan Jue still picked it up and ate it without changing his expression.
Jiang Ming originally wanted to remind Chi Jiao, but he felt that Quan Jue seemed to enjoy the way the little girl put food in his bowl, so he wisely chose to keep quiet.
He kindly treated them to hotpot, but here they were crazily mocking him for being single!
While the atmosphere here was good, the atmosphere in another place wasn’t as great.
In the hospital, the faint smell of disinfectant lingered in the VIP ward.
Lan Yunhan sat on the bed with a gloomy expression. His face was still swollen and battered.
In particular, his eyes were both bruised like a panda.
Standing in front of him was a middle-aged man who looked a little similar to him.
“You really leave me speechless.” Lan Qingquan’s face was filled with rage. “Why didn’t you discuss with me before canceling your engagement with Chi Jiao?”
Lan Yunhan kept a gloomy expression on his face and did not speak.
“Since she knows someone from 007 Laboratory, it proves she’s not as simple as you think. It’s true she came back from the mountains, but she went to the mountains to recuperate. She’s the real eldest daughter of the Chi family. She will definitely have part of the Chi family’s shares in the future. But good for you. You rejected the phoenix and insisted on playing around with their stepdaughter!” Lan Qingquan had been inspecting a project abroad recently. He didn’t expect to receive the news of the company’s stock price falling sharply as soon as he returned home today, as well as the news that Lan Yunhan had been beaten into the hospital.
“Dad, is there any use in saying this now?” The veins on Lan Yunhan’s forehead twitched as he retorted.
He didn’t know that Chi Jiao was actually so capable, either. If he could predict the future, then he wouldn’t have made such a stupid decision no matter what!
Since it had already happened, what was the point in dwelling on it?
Lan Qingquan sat on the sofa dejectedly and rubbed his temples hard. “Also, do you know who the person who hit you is?”
“What kind of identity could he have? He’s the adopted son of the Chi family, a bastard of unknown origin.” Lan Yunhan hated Quan Jue to the bone now. In all his life, this was the first time he hated someone so much.
“Adopted son? A bastard?” Lan Qingquan laughed out loud as if he had just heard a joke. “Lan Yunhan, you should know his surname, right?”
Lan Yunhan was stunned by what he said.
Quan Jue. His surname was Quan.
This surname was indeed rare in Country Hua, but it wasn’t as if the Quan family in Shang Jing were the only ones who had it.
He had previously wondered if Quan Jue was the illegitimate son of the Quan family who had been left outside. But later on, he felt that it was impossible.
Why would a member of the Quan family end up in White City, living such a pathetic life?
He had previously heard that Quan Jue was working to support himself.
