Chapter 213 -213 Shi Xu, You Must Understand How to Balance Meat and Vegetables

Jiang Cheng also noticed where Jiang Shixu’s attention lay.

Although the corners of his mouth were still turned up, the warmth in his eyes slowly faded, and then it turned into disdain.

Seeing this, Jiang Shixu also slowly straightened up to meet his gaze.

The two of them stood at the doorway, staring at each other, neither willing to yield.

Jiang Ye stood to the side, unsure whether to speak or remain silent.

How had the relationship between these two young masters become so hostile all of a sudden?

Just when he felt at a loss, Jiang Cheng suddenly smiled, returning to that gentle and modest gentleman.

“Uncle Jiang, since Shi Xu doesn’t feel like going down to eat, let’s go ahead without him.”

“Who, who said I don’t want to go down to eat?” Jiang Shixu suddenly lifted his chin and blurted out those words.

Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow, “Wasn’t it you who said you didn’t want to go?”

“I want to eat. Before my sister left, she specifically told me to eat three meals a day on time. How could I let down my sister’s kindness?”

Jiang Cheng scoffed inwardly.

Sister, sister, always that detestable woman!

Although he thought this, he maintained a friendly smile on the surface.

“Since that’s the case, then, Brother Shi Xu, let’s go down together.”

Lin Manru sat in the dining room, waiting left and right but not seeing anyone come down, getting somewhat anxious.

“Could the two kids be throwing a tantrum upstairs?”

“How could that be?” Aunt Zhang replied while pouring her tea, “The second young master is famously well-behaved, and the third young master doesn’t like to talk much. The two brothers wouldn’t fight. Madam, you can relax.”

Lin Manru nodded in agreement.

Indeed.

Although the origins of Jiang Cheng, the child, were always a knot in her heart, Minghai was gone, and the faults of adults could not be blamed on a child.

Besides, the child really was obedient, not having caused a single tantrum from the first day he arrived at the Jiang Family until now, always a picture of humility, and his academic performance didn’t require her worry.

So much better than her own worthless biological son in countless ways.

Moreover, the Family Head doted on the obedient Jiang Cheng. Even if she had a hundred reluctances, she still had to bear it for the harmony of the family, right?

Thinking this, Lin Manru let out a light sigh.

At that moment, the elevator beside her emitted a “ding” as it arrived.

Then the doors slowly opened, revealing three faces.

Seeing Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shixu walking one after the other, Lin Manru was somewhat surprised.

She had thought Uncle Jiang could only persuade one of them to come down, but unexpectedly, both children had come.

Aunt Zhang was right, while other brothers might fight, these two would not.

So Lin Manru quickly stood up, “Jiang Cheng, Shi Xu, come eat, Aunt Zhang has prepared a lot of delicious food for you today. You better wash your hands quick so the food doesn’t get cold.”

Jiang Cheng obediently bowed to Lin Manru, “All right, Mother.”

Watching his hypocritical behavior, Jiang Shixu scoffed in his heart, but then, not to be outdone, he also bowed to Lin Manru.

“Alright, Great Aunt.”

Lin Manru was stunned.

Why was this child so polite today? Didn’t he used to be too scared to speak to her before?

“Good, good, your Great Aunt has received your greeting, go and wash your hands now.”

The smile on Jiang Cheng’s face became even more pronounced, “Thank you, Mother. I understand.”

After withdrawing his gaze, he cast a slightly provocative look at Jiang Shixu.

Jiang Shixu now understood his purpose, his hand gripping the chopsticks tightened a little.

Ha, childish.

Even now, he’s still thinking about competing for favor. How annoying Jiang Cheng was!

Once big sister comes back, he would definitely have her teach Jiang Cheng a lesson!

–

Chixia Village.

The production team was quite kind today.

Seeing that they had spent a whole day working hard for the Task Card, the team did not require them to cook dinner themselves but had the on-site chef handle it.

Though it was just simple boxed meals, since they didn’t have to cook themselves, the guests ate with particular joy.

[LMAO, when did these folks get so happy eating a simple meal with one meat and one veggie?]

[Recall how the Princess complained about the taste of first-class Western meals on the airplane. Now, she’s chomping on cabbage and enjoying it more than anyone.]

[After all, Director Sun’s transformation is no joke. A pig would lose weight after frolicking here for a few days, let alone people.]

Having eaten their fill, they embarked on their journey back home.

They needed to conserve their energy, considering a tough battle was likely awaiting them tomorrow.

Jiang Li was the first one to return to the little cabin.

Viewing the equipment already set up in the yard and Director Sun waiting eagerly, she couldn’t help but become expressionless.

“Director Sun, please don’t tell me the King for today is me again.”
