Chen Zui who is driving also smiled, “Me too.”
“Let’s go on a trip together next time!”
Chen Zui glanced at her and raised the corner of his lips, “Didn’t we already go on a two-day trip to the hot springs?”
Before Zhen Tian could speak, Chen Yiran who was holding Pudding in the back seat pricked his ears, “Uncle, when did you go to the hot springs?”
He even kept it a secret from him!
Zhen Tian let out an awkward laugh and said to Chen Yiran, “Shanshan, don’t listen to your uncle. He is talking nonsense.”
Chen Zui withdrew his eyes and looked at the road ahead. However, the upturned arc still remained on his lips, “I hope this nonsense will come true soon.”
Chen Yiran felt this matter wasn’t so simple, “Uncle, what are you saying?”
Is it something kids can hear?
Zhen Tian couldn’t help but lightly punch Chen Zui and reminded, “Don’t talk nonsense in front of children!”
Chen Yiran suddenly came to a realization himself. It turns out it is something children can’t hear.
“By the way, Shanshan, I bought a lot of chicken wings. Your uncle said you like to eat this the most.” Zhen Tian cleverly brought up the topic of food to change the subject.
Chen Yiran is still a child. Hearing that she bought a lot of chicken wings, his eyes lit up, “Sister Tiantian is the best! Then, can I drink coke later?”
“Yes! I bought it too!” Because they were driving, Zhen Tian didn’t bring any beer but prepared lots of drinks and beverages for everyone.
Chen Zui said, "Don't drink too much."
Chen Yiran who was sitting right behind him, made a face at his back. Zhen Tian just so happened to see it and laughed.
Chen Zui’s voice sounded from the front again, “Don’t make faces behind my back. I can see it.”
Chen Yiran and Zhen Tian looked at each other and put on innocent looks.
It took nearly two hours to drive from Zhen Tian’s house to the villa. The drive wasn’t short but with Chen Zui and Chen Yiran’s company, it felt much shorter.
It was Pudding’s first time traveling far from home while he looked out the window excitedly. If Chen Yiran wasn’t holding him, he probably would have jumped out the window.
After arriving at the beach, they drive to the villa Chen Zui rented. Chen Zui has been driving in the front of the pack leading everyone. Along the way, they could see many travelers enjoying themselves. Zhen Tian lowered the window and felt the sea breeze. “Wow, I haven’t been to the beach in a long time!”
Chen Yiran followed and lowered his window. Pudding who was in his arms also stretched his head out the window with his eyes squinted, very much like Chen Yiran.
“You three, don’t stick your head out of the window.” Chen Zui said in a parently tone.
Zhen Tian and Chen Yiran let out an “oh” while Pudding let out a “woof” as they all retracted their head.
After arriving at the villa, everyone simply packed up their things and went to the beach near their villa to have a barbecue.
Because Chen Zui had contacted the villa staff in advance, the barbeque tools he ordered had already been set up for them. All they have to do now and start the barbeque. Wearing a pair of big sunglasses, Zhen Xi went to the beach to feel the ocean breeze, “It’s not bad here. I will enjoy the sea and leave the barbeque to you guys.”
Zhen Tian, “....”
Are you here to freeload?
Carrying a mahjong box, Zhen Rui and Zhen Tian’s other two cousins directly set up the mahjong tiles at one of the small tables.
“Zhen Xi, come play mahjong. It just so happens there are four of us to play.”
Zhen Xi hurried over when he heard his call, “I have never played mahjong by the sea before. What an experience.”
Zhen Tian, “....”
So the four of them came today so they can have enough people to play mahjong?
The mahjong table was set up neatly on one side, and on the other side, Lao Zhen was carrying a newly bought SLR camera. He took Ms. Wang Shuzhen to take pictures as soon as he got out of the car, "Honey, the scenery here is amazing. Let me take some pictures for you!"
Ms. Wang Shuzhen loves taking photos so Lao Zhen took photography classes just for her. Ms. Wang Shuzhen, who came to the seaside in a new dress, devoted herself to the photo shoot.
Zhen Tian, “....”
Ms. Wang Shuzhen is so unreliable! Sure enough, no one in her family can be depended on!
Chen Zui chuckled as he went over and patted her head, “You should also go play with Chen Yiran. I can work the grill myself.”
Zhen Tian puffed her cheek, feeling very upset, “They are doing this on purpose! If they don’t do any work, they don’t get to eat! We can’t let them freeload.”
Chen Zui pinched her face and comforted, “It’s only barbeque, it’s not difficult for me. Why do you want to eat? I’ll grill it for you.”
Zhen Tian thought for a while and then took his arm, “Let me help you! I know how to grill too!”
Chen Zui looked down at her and unconsciously smiled, “Okay.”
Zhen Tian sorted out the first batch of meat to be grilled while Chen Zui got the fire started. After the charcoal was fired up, Chen Zui took two skewers of chicken wings, put them on the grill, and brushed them with oil.
The ingredients are all bought in the supermarket. After they arrive, they have to prepare it themselves and skewer the ingredients by hand. Zhen Tian and Chen Zui handled the ingredients and roasted the meat with tacit understanding.
Zhen Xi and the three had already played a round of mahjong, and Ms. Wang Shuzhen changed the scenery for another photoshoot. Chen Yiran and Pudding were running on the beach. The child's laughter and the dog’s barking drifted into Zhen Tian's ears accompanied by the sea breeze.
Smelling the faint smell of barbecue, she looked up at Chen Zui and said, "Actually, this feels pretty good."
Just staying with Chen Zui quietly like this, even doing some hard work, life feel so beautiful.
Chen Zui looked down at the person beside him. There was tenderness in his eyes that couldn't be hidden, "Yeah." He picked up one of the grilled chicken wings and handed it to Zhen Tian, "This skewer is ready to eat, you taste it first."
"Okay." Zhen Tian was not polite at all. She took it from Chen Zui, preparing to stuff it into her mouth.
"Wait a minute, it's still hot." Chen Zui grabbed her hand, lowered his head, and blew on the chicken wings, "You're an adult, how do you still eat like Chen Yiran?"
"Because it smells so delicious! Didn't you notice that Zhen Xi and the others have slowed down their mahjong-playing speed?"
Hearing what she said, Chen Zui laughed out loud, "Eat first, and see how long they can endure the temptation."
Zhen Tian dramatically blinked at him in surprise, "Senior is pretty bad. I feel like Zhen Xi and the others are not your opponents!"
Chen Zui let go of her hand and smiled, "Okay, you can eat it now."
Zhen Tian happily took a bite of the chicken wings, and her eyes squinted in satisfaction, "Sure enough, the food eaten after working is the most delicious! Of course, this is also inseparable from the senior's craftsmanship!"
Chen Zui is like the almighty hero that Zhen Tian liked when she was a child. He can do everything well, even the barbecue is so delicious.
“Your mouth is so sweet, do you want me to make more for you?” Chen Zui looked at her and asked.
Zhen Tian smiled, “You figured it out!”
“Uncle! Are the chicken wings ready? I can smell it from here!” Chen Yiran and Pudding ran over from the distance, looking at the skewers with the same greedy expression.
“Go wash your hands first.”
“Okay!” Having received Chen Zui’s order, Chen Yiran quickly ran to wash his hands. When he came back, he got the second skewer grilled by Chef Chen. “Mm, it’s delicious! As expected, chicken wings are the best in the world!”
Zhen Tian asked, “Then what about coke?”
“Coke is my soul!” Chen Yiran responded, “By the way, Sister Tiantian, where did you put my soul?”
Zhen Tian laughed, “There in the bag of drinks on the table over there. There are other drinks you can pick as well.”
“Thank you Sister Tiantian! No, thank you, Auntie!” Chen Yiran then went to find his soul.
Zhen Tian blushed as Chen Zui smiled at her from the side, “What else do you want to eat Auntie?”
“.....Senior, how can you be like this too! Are you still a kid?!” Even though she has seen other people dating in her beer house everyday, Zhen Tian is still shy around the topic of live.
What’s more, she is surrounded by her family today.
Seeing that Chen Yiran also started eating, Zhen Xi and the others couldn’t sit still at the table anymore. Zhen Xi casually walked over and looked at the grill in front of Chen Zui, “Is it ready?”
Zhen Tian sneered, “It’s ready. These are for me, those are for Senior, and those are for Mom and Dad. There’s none for you!”
Brothers, “.....”
Has anyone seen a sister like this before? :)
“You haven’t finished the chicken wing in your hand, why are you asking for more? Those who haven’t eaten yet should get their turn.” Zhen Xi pointed to the four pieces of chicken in her hand as he said this.
“Senior likes to grill it for me. What can you do about it, hehe.”
……
The four brothers collectively looked at Chen Zui.
Chen Zui was able to gauge the current situation and said, “You guys can eat these skewers first. I’m not hungry yet.”
Zhen Xi laughed, “Then, thank you.”
He unceremoniously took away the few skewers from Chen Zui and shared it among themselves.
Zhen Tian watched the few idlers eat while her hungry Senior was still busy barbequing away and was unhappy by the current event, “Senior, you should eat this skewer of chicken wings.”
Chen Zui smiled at her, “No, you eat first. I will eat later.”
Zhen Tian didn’t listen to him and picked up a chicken wing. She blew on it just like Chen Zui did earlier and brought it to his mouth, “Here, I'll feed you.”
Zhen Tian already brought the chicken to his mouth. If he refuses, he will be inhumane. He opened his mouth and took a bite.
“Is it delicious?” Zhen Tian smugly asked, as if the person who cooked it was her.
Chen Zui lightly smiled, “En, the food fed by you is especially delicious.”
Their intimate action was observed by the four brothers who were eating beside them. They looked at each other with complicated expressions.
People say that a woman is born to leave her family, which is really true. Look at Zhen Tian’s currying appearance. She hasn’t been with Chen Zui for that long and she is already bending backward for him. If they get married, Chen Zui would hold her in the palm of his hand!
No, today, they must help Zhen Tian build up her prestige and let Chen Zui know who has the final say in the family in the future.
"The craftsmanship is good, Anchor Chen." Zhen Xi threw the bamboo sticks into the trash bag after eating. He wiped his hands with a tissue, and walked up to Chen Zui, "In the future, if you don’t want to be an anchor anymore, you can just open a restaurant."
“You’re flattering me, it’s fine as long as it is to your taste.”
Zhen Xi smiled, “Speaking of restaurants, I think of Tian Xia. The owner of Tian Xia is a good cook but he doesn’t cook often. By the way, Anchor Chen goes to Tian Xia often. Have you ever tasted the boss’s cooking?”
Chen Zui stopped what he was doing and turned to look at him.
The corner of Zhen Tian’s mouth twitched. She also looked at Zhen Xi who was hiding a knife behind his smile.
Isn’t it said after you gained benefit from someone, you will have to return the favor to that person? Zhen Xi, this rotten child, just ate the meat Chen Zui just grilled and in a blink of an eye, started messing with him.
How do Mom and Dad usually educate him?!
Fortunately, Chen Zui’s movements only paused for a second before he calmly continued to grill the meat, “I don’t go there often but you seem to. The reporters in our station have taken photos of you a few times with different small celebrities.”
Zhen Xi, “...???”
Zhen Tian, “....”
Well done, Senior.
The four brothers collectively looked at Chen Zui.
