Chapter 646: Seeing Me in a New Light 2

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye

Boss Cutie

Mother Sheng gave Little White Dove a thumbs-up. "Very nice. Not everyone who can cook knows how to toss a wok."

Little White Dove threw himself into the cooking even more.

Before long, he had made five dishes and a soup.

There was meat and there were vegetables, and everything looked absolutely delicious.

Even Mother Sheng couldn't help but want to eat.

It really did look quite good.

Mother Sheng felt a bit embarrassed. "I didn't help at all today, and I even let a guest help me cook."

"Don't say that, Auntie. You've helped me plenty," Little White Dove said with a faint smile.

Mother Sheng smiled like a blooming flower and hurriedly carried the dishes out with Little White Dove.

"Alright, time to eat," Mother Sheng announced.

Sheng Xinyi and Father Sheng, who had been watching TV on the couch, immediately came over.

"You're pretty fast today," Father Sheng said with a nod of approval.

"That's because Chen Ge is here today. Of course it's fast," Mother Sheng said with a smile.

"Auntie, Uncle, let me serve you some rice." Little White Dove wanted to make a good impression, so he helped with everything he could.

After all, he had to leave a good impression on his girlfriend's parents.

Little White Dove went to serve the rice, and Sheng Xinyi hurried over to help.

Mother Sheng watched Little White Dove and Sheng Xinyi working together so well, and immediately said to Father Sheng, "Look, these two are so in sync. As expected, men and women working together get the job done without getting tired."

Father Sheng glanced at Mother Sheng, who was smiling ear to ear, and couldn't understand. Their daughter had been taken by a pig, and she was still this happy.

Father Sheng felt endless gloom. After all, she was his daughter, and now she was siding with an outsider, barely even remembering her old dad.

He lowered his head and took a bite of the food, and his taste buds were met with immense satisfaction.

"Darling, your skills have really improved. The dishes today are excellent, delicious!" Father Sheng praised.

As he praised, his chopsticks never stopped, and he continued to pick up more food.

Father Sheng was clearly very satisfied, but Mother Sheng covered her mouth and started laughing.

"What are you laughing at? Are you that happy just because I praised you?" Father Sheng felt somewhat baffled.

"That's not it. It's just that I didn't make this." Mother Sheng smiled at Father Sheng and pointed at Little White Dove. "This young man made it."

Father Sheng was shocked. "Really? Every single dish?"

"Yes! I never imagined our future son-in-law would be so good at cooking. It's really such a surprise," Mother Sheng said with a chuckle.

Sheng Xinyi chimed in excitedly, "It really is delicious, Senior Chen Ge. You're amazing!"

After being praised by his girlfriend, Little White Dove's face turned a bit red.

He felt very embarrassed and quickly said, "It's really nothing. I learned to cook a little before. If you like it, that's more than enough."

Father Sheng cleared his throat. "It's not bad, but I think it's still lacking something."

Clearly, he was trying to save face, and his praise was no longer as enthusiastic as before.

Mother Sheng shot her husband a glance. "Isn't this good enough? Considering that your palate is very picky, when I used to cook, you'd complain it was too bland and didn't whet your appetite. The fact that you just praised it proves it suits your taste. You can't start applying double standards just because your son-in-law made it."

After hearing his wife's words, Father Sheng's face turned red.

Neither had expected his wife to undercut him like that.

Not just his wife, even his daughter had taken Little White Dove's side.

"Dad, it wouldn't hurt to praise Senior Chen Ge. You're being too petty!"

After hearing his daughter's words, Father Sheng was completely at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Was he petty?

He had even given away his daughter.

But he couldn't be too insincere, so he gave himself an out. "Alright, it really is quite good. I was too harsh."

After hearing Father Sheng's words, Little White Dove's mood gradually improved.

Sheng Xinyi immediately became happy too, and instinctively gave Little White Dove a gentle poke with her elbow. "Did you hear that, Senior Chen Ge? My dad is praising you."

Little White Dove grinned, feeling wonderful.

Father Sheng ate quite a lot of food and rice. He clearly had a big appetite. Even if he didn't want to admit it, the table of dishes Little White Dove had made suited his taste perfectly.

It felt even better than the dishes from restaurants outside.

So much so that Father Sheng wanted more after one taste. If he couldn't eat this again in the future, what was he supposed to do?

While Father Sheng was feeling melancholic, Mother Sheng started clearing the plates.

Father Sheng noticed there were still some peanuts left, and immediately picked them up with his chopsticks, insisting, "There's still a bit left, wait!"

Watching Father Sheng's eagerness, Mother Sheng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Her husband was really too supportive. This was the classic case of saying one thing and doing another.

Seeing Father Sheng's reaction, Little White Dove also found him very endearing. He was stern on the surface, but in reality just a cute old man.

He didn't put on any airs at all.

In fact, you couldn't blame Father Sheng for acting like this. After all, his daughter had run off with someone.

If it were him, he'd be angry too, feeling like his cabbage had been taken by a pig.

Little White Dove offered to wash the dishes, and Sheng Xinyi tugged at him. "You're not some nanny. Why are you rushing to do everything!"

Little White Dove looked at Sheng Xinyi's nervous, caring expression and smiled. "Just doing a little."

"Don't wash them. We have a maid at home who'll do it. Come play a game of chess with me." Father Sheng shot him a look.

Little White Dove immediately tensed up. "Okay."

He sat down in front of Father Sheng.

Father Sheng said, "I heard from Xinyi that you're pretty good at Go."

"I'm actually pretty average," Little White Dove said a bit sheepishly.

Just then, a white-haired old man came from outside.

"Little Sheng! You have guests today?" The white-haired old man looked at Little White Dove with a smile. "Is this a relative of yours?"

Little White Dove's heart suddenly sank.

But Sheng Xinyi immediately said, "Grandpa Niu, this is my boyfriend!"

Sheng Xinyi immediately wrapped her arm around Little White Dove's, looking completely sweet.

Little White Dove looked at Sheng Xinyi's lovely appearance, and his eyes instantly became very gentle.

Who wouldn't want to be acknowledged by their girlfriend?

Grandpa Niu was shocked. "Xinyi, you have a boyfriend already? Haha, you've really grown up!"

"My boyfriend is very handsome, isn't he?" Sheng Xinyi said proudly.

"Very handsome," Grandpa Niu nodded. "Truly outstanding. Which family's conglomerate is he from?"

After hearing Grandpa Niu's words, Little White Dove had been secretly pleased, but now his mood suddenly sank.

In Grandpa Niu's world, whoever could be worthy of Sheng Xinyi must surely be from a very wealthy and powerful family.

But he had nothing. In all honesty, he really wasn't good enough for Sheng Xinyi.

Little White Dove felt somewhat inferior.

He wanted to proudly announce how capable his family was, but the problem was, he was just a student right now and couldn't create any wealth yet.
