Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law
Chapter 1365: The Man of the House!
Under the joint cooperation of the couple, a plate of sumptuous delicacies finally came out of the kitchen.
Only then did Nangong Qingcheng open the door to invite Chu Feifei, Zhang Qinyao, and Liu Shiyuan inside to help serve the dishes.
"Uncle, Qingcheng, why did you take so long? I'm starving over here." ππ£πππ ππππ¨π―ππ.ππ¨π
Chu Feifei complained as she approached the door, but as soon as she caught a whiff of the food's aroma, her eyes lit up: "Wow, it smells amazing!"
"Good food is worth the wait, haven't you heard? Get the chopsticks ready!"
Seeing Chu Feifei reaching out like a little glutton to grab a piece of pan-fried pollock to taste, Jiang Feng playfully knocked on the back of her hand.
Chu Feifei laughed cheekily, then picked up the chopsticks and started serving the dishes out.
"Wow, it's really aromatic, Brother Feng, did you make all of this?"
At this moment, Mo Zixun and Su Xiaoxiao also arrived at the door, and smelling the enticing aroma, their stomachs couldn't help but rumble.
"Try it out later, there are quite a few local Binhai dishes, you won't find them elsewhere." Jiang Feng chuckled.
Indeed, tonight, for Mo Zixun and Su Xiaoxiao's visit, he really put in the effort, featuring all kinds of cooking methods and even made a pot of shrimp three-flavor soup, which was quite a rare treat.
Mo Zixun and Su Xiaoxiao glanced at each other, even though they had heard of Jiang Feng's cooking skills, they didn't expect them to be this good, undoubtedly surpassing the top chefs of five-star hotels.
At the moment, the two ladies also helped, together they carried out the dishes.
Truth be told, when Jiang Feng first rented this villa, it was completely to accommodate the three ladies back home: Nangong Qingcheng, Chu Feifei, and Liu Shiyuan, ensuring comfort in both living and dining.
Later, Zhang Qinyao joined, Jiang Feng gave up his room and chose to sleep in the living room, which still fit just fine, and the dining table had enough room.
Then Baili Xiyue cheekily moved in, Jiang Feng was reduced to sleeping on the floor, and dining became a bit cramped.
But now, this small dining table has added five more seats!
Bai Zhiqing, Mu Yanluo, Feng Yueji, Mo Zixun, Su Xiaoxiao...
The level of crowding was quite something, almost no room left to sit.
However, the remarkable thing was that none of the women complained about the seating, instead finding the crowded situation lively, hauling over several stools to sit around together.
"Uncle, sit down too." Chu Feifei patted the small stool next to her, speaking to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng felt a bit awkward, not quite comfortable squeezing in among the girls, so he said, "You all go ahead, I'll join in later when I'm a bit hungry."
"Oh come on, don't be so wordy, how can you not be hungry? If the man of the house doesn't sit down, how are we supposed to eat?"
Without further ado, Chu Feifei got up laughing and strong-armed Jiang Feng into sitting beside her, with Bai Zhiqing on the other side.
Man of the house...
These three words caused all the beauties present to tremble slightly inside!
They each blushed, unsure if it was the steamy aroma of the food or perhaps something touched a sensitive thought.
"Hmph, what kind of man of the house is he? More like a house servant."
Baili Xiyue's remark was bold, giving Jiang Feng a look.
The ladies: "..."
Luckily, as Jiang Feng "reluctantly" took his seat, Nangong Qingcheng kindly eased the awkwardness by raising her glass, smiling at Mo Zixun and Su Xiaoxiao, "Zixun, Xiaoxiao, I formally welcome you both to visit us. Thanks to Jiang Feng, we were able to meet, as fate has brought us together."
"Oh Qingcheng, you're being too polite! I usually don't drink alcohol, but tonight I decided to make an exception just for everyone's enjoyment." Mo Zixun responded sweetly.
"If you don't drink, you can drink less, or use water as a substitute." Jiang Feng quickly added.
"Shut up!!"
Unexpectedly, his comment was met with disdain from all the ladies, including Nangong Qingcheng, who then exchanged glances and started giggling.
Jiang Feng was speechless, vividly recalling the lessons from having these ladies drunk β each one of them being quite the handful. If everyone got heavily drunk tonight, it would be a real headache, certainly an unmanageable situation!
But watching everyone's high spirits, he couldn't forcefully stop them, so he just watched as the women all downed a glass together.
After a drink, their lovely and charming faces indeed became red and flushed, appearing even more beautiful and irresistible.
"Qingcheng, Feifei, you know, I was just saying to Xiaoxiao, after coming to your cozy place, I realized how happy you all are, and how much I envy that. This is genuinely a warm and happy life. For me, it feels like floating driftwood, wandering without a fixed place..."
Mo Zixun shared, as she finished her drink, with a bitter smile.
"Zixun, how could you envy us? You're a superstar! You have at least several billion dedicated fans in the country, far beyond the online followers Xi Yue and I have. You're the real deal, a top-tier goddess, unreachable." Chu Feifei comforted with a laugh.
"Being a goddess isn't great, and being unattainable isn't either, it's just a burden. As a girl, not being able to pursue her own love or have personal freedom, if I had to choose again, I'd rather be an ordinary girl..."
While saying this, Mo Zixun's gaze, filled with deep affection, lingered on Jiang Feng, burning with heat, without reservation.
"Ahem, there are no perfect situations in life, gains always come with losses, let's dig in and eat." Jiang Feng quickly diverted the topic, signaling everyone to eat.
"If that's the case, Zixun, you indeed have it tough. With your status, even a simple shopping trip like us must be challenging." Nangong Qingcheng empathized.
"Exactly! Speaking of shopping and real relaxation, I've never had it before. Only the day before with Brother Feng..."
"Ahem! Eat! Don't just talk, eat!" Jiang Feng was almost unable to sit still.
If Mo Zixun publicly shared that Jiang Feng accompanied her skating and spent a whole afternoon shopping, the ladies present would explode!
Nangong Qingcheng would certainly not spare him!
"Indeed, it's rare that Xiao Feng made such a large spread, let's eat while we talk, bear with the chopsticks."
Among the ladies, only Bai Zhiqing, having been through this before, sensed Mo Zixun's undertone, though she was suspicious of the exact events between Jiang Feng and Mo Zixun yesterday, her first thought was to help Jiang Feng out of a bind, quickly guiding everyone to enjoy the meal.
