Chapter 71 Complete Conquest
From the very beginning, Su Qingxue had been keeping a close eye on Su Yuanrui.
She knows her nephew too well. He usually hates leafy greens like they're his enemies, and he's incredibly patient with them, picking out every single radish piece from the bowl without ever finding it too much trouble.
Unexpectedly, the child actually said it was delicious.
Just then, Chen Youyou proudly raised her chin.
"Right, right! I wasn't lying to you, was I?"
She held a special little spoon in her hand, and her expression was like that of a little adult.
"Rui Rui, I told you before, my dad's cooking is absolutely delicious. The look on your face just now was like you hadn't eaten at all."
Su Yuanrui didn't say anything, but continued chewing with his cheeks puffed out, his eyes shining brightly as he stared intently at the last two egg rolls.
How can I describe this feeling?
Just like how he originally thought there was a wall in front of him and angrily wanted to crash into it, only to find out after crashing into it that the wall was actually made of cotton candy!
Chen Yuan smiled and picked up another piece of assorted shrimp with his chopsticks, placing it in Su Yuanrui's bowl.
The shrimp are tender and pink, and the dish is complemented by green peas and corn kernels, creating a rich and vibrant color combination.
"You should try these shrimp; they're delicious too, and the green peas and corn kernels inside are very sweet as well."
Su Yuanrui looked at the bowl, then looked up at Chen Yuan.
He pursed his lips, maintaining his cool demeanor, and didn't say anything, but his actions betrayed him—he took a big bite and ate it.
"Hmm!"
The unique sensations brought on by the taste buds surprised him even more.
The shrimp are bouncy and smooth, with not only the natural ocean flavor of shrimp, but also the fresh sweetness of vegetables, without any of that unpleasant raw taste of vegetables.
Su Yuanrui chewed it vigorously, and after fully experiencing it, he said calmly.
"Hmm, this is alright..."
Despite saying that, they ate with great gusto, their chopsticks moving much faster than before.
Chen Youyou, watching from the side, was amused. She pointed with her spoon at the plate of spinach mixed with sesame sauce in the middle and, at such a young age, used reverse psychology to say something.
"Then do you dare to eat this? It's all green."
"Well……"
"It's okay if you don't dare to eat it, you coward."
Chen Youyou stuck out her little tongue, then scooped up a big mouthful of spinach with a spoon, put it in her mouth, and said happily as she ate.
"It's so delicious! Dad's cooking is really good!"
Spinach and similar vegetables are off-limits for Su Yuanrui.
In the past, even if he was beaten by his mother, he would never have given in to her. But now, looking at Chen Youyou's slightly provocative eyes...
Su Yuanrui's stubborn streak kicked in.
He's a young man, after all; how could he possibly lose to a little girl?
He grunted and reluctantly picked up a piece of spinach covered in brown sauce with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.
The unique, rich aroma of sesame paste instantly enveloped the tongue, followed by the blanching of the spinach, which removed its astringency. Only a soft, chewy texture and a distinctive, refreshing fragrance remained.
good to eat!
Su Yuanrui's eyes widened involuntarily, and his previously tense body relaxed.
"Hmm...it tastes different from what I've had before. I'll try it again."
As if afraid someone would snatch it from him, he picked up another piece of food with his chopsticks. This time he didn't say anything, but he chewed much faster.
"How was it? I wasn't lying to you, was I?" Chen Youyou turned to look at Chen Yuan like a victorious general, her eyes crinkling with laughter: "Dad, your cooking is so delicious, even Rui Rui loves it."
Chen Yuan smiled and nodded, then casually pulled out a tissue and gently wiped the sauce from the corner of Su Yuanrui's mouth.
"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke."
Su Yuanrui stiffened for a moment, but did not dodge, obediently letting Chen Yuan wipe him, showing none of the unruly demeanor he had displayed upon first meeting.
Su Qingxue's eyes welled up with tears as she watched from the side.
On the one hand, I am happy for Su Yuanrui, and on the other hand, Chen Yuan's action just now was full of fatherly love.
For some reason, her heart started racing.
To ease the awkwardness, Su Qingxue couldn't resist picking up a piece of carrot and cabbage shreds with her chopsticks and putting it in her mouth.
The dish was crisp, refreshing, and sweet, with no raw or astringent taste at all, so Su Yuanrui was encouraged to keep trying.
"Rui Rui, try this. It's delicious too, crispy and sweet. I promise you'll like it."
Having tried two dishes without any disappointments, Su Yanrui gradually lowered her guard and quickly took a bite.
Next.
Su Yuanrui began sweeping the scene.
"Auntie, this is delicious too."
"Mmm, this is delicious too, it's sweet."
Su Yuanrui was drawn in by the aroma of cashews, took a bite of celery, and found it to be crisp and crunchy like fruit.
The okra in the stir-fried okra with pork was slippery and tender. When stir-fried with pork, it carried the aroma of the meat and didn't taste bland at all. He ate several spoonfuls in a row.
In the end, he even ate several bites of the broccoli and mushroom stir-fry.
"Hiccup..."
I finally couldn't eat anymore.
A small burp sounded.
Su Yuanrui blushed and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hand, quickly regaining her aloof demeanor. However, her round belly pushed up the t-shirt she was wearing.
"Auntie, I can't eat anymore."
There were still two carrots left in Su Yuanrui's bowl.
Because her eyes were bigger than her stomach, she picked up too much food and couldn't finish it all, so she had to ask her aunt for help.
Su Qingxue originally wanted to help, but Chen Youyou spoke up, her tone carrying a hint of a bossy older sister.
"No, Dad said we can't leave any food uneaten. You have to finish all of this."
"Otherwise, it's just a waste of food!"
In the past, Su Yuanrui would have definitely thrown the carrot back.
But at that moment, he glanced at Chen Youyou.
He glanced back and forth between Chen Youyou and the carrots in the bowl, and finally seemed to make a very difficult decision, silently picking up the leftovers.
Put it in your mouth and chew it thoroughly.
I swallowed it with difficulty.
"I'm done eating."
Su Yuanrui put down his clean bowl and chopsticks, and looked up at Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan smiled.
But Su Yuanrui's next move shocked him.
Su Yuanrui stood up.
With his hands hanging naturally at his sides, he bowed respectfully to Chen Yuan.
Then he said it very seriously.
"Thank you, Uncle."
"Your cooking is really delicious."
He looked extremely serious.
Before Chen Yuan could speak, Su Yuanrui spoke again.
"Uncle, are you making these dishes again tomorrow?"
"I want to eat more."
