Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1356 - 193, Date_3

Xiao Linshuang indeed stopped pushing forward, asking uncertainly once more, "Are you really not eating something delicious?"

Mu Dan could not help but facepalm, "Really, we’re just talking, not eating anything."

Only then did Xiao Linshuang give up on moving further inside. However, after taking three steps out, she turned back around, blinking her large, rolling eyes and lifting her chubby little face, her small red lips pouting, "Sister Shi Liu, Sister Mu Dan, you swear, are our big sisters really not hiding at home eating something delicious?"

Shi Liu and Mu Dan were so charmed by Xiao Linshuang’s appearance that they couldn’t help but laugh and raise their right hand to actually make a vow.

After swearing, Mu Dan even took Xiao Linshuang to the kitchen, because the young miss had said, if you really can’t stop the little lady, just tell her there’s delicious food in the kitchen.

Even though the little lady didn’t burst inside anymore, this adorably charming behavior was indeed hard to resist, so they decided to indulge her just this once and take her to eat something tasty.

Upon hearing there was delicious food, Xiao Linshuang ran incredibly fast, almost faster than a rabbit. Mu Dan, following closely behind, couldn’t catch up to her, and when she arrived at the kitchen, Xiao Linshuang had already devoured more than half of the spicy stir-fried rice cakes on the cutting board.

The next day early in the morning, Lin Wei arrived early at the place she had agreed to meet Embroiderer Rui, but she didn’t appear directly, instead secretly hiding with Lin Yuan and Xiao He to observe from the side.

Sure enough, just as the three of them had expected, Cheng Haoxuan came to Linjiang accompanied by Madam Cheng and Embroiderer Ru, Embroiderer Rui. Rather than saying accompanied, it would be more accurate to say he was being escorted, as Cheng Haoxuan’s handsome face looked as unpleasant as if he had swallowed bitter medicine.

The time was almost right; Madam Cheng adjusted her son’s clothes and then pushed him toward the riverbank, also reminding him to treat the girl well.

Cheng Haoxuan walked unwillingly toward the riverbank, passing right in front of where Lin Yuan and the others were hiding.

The three young ladies quickly retracted their necks, held their breath, and listened with ears perked as Cheng Haoxuan complained all the way.

"What the heck, they drag me out early in the morning and lie about going out to play, only to tell me it’s for a blind date when we arrive! Really, what times are these? Who still does arranged marriages? Besides, with this gentleman’s charming and dashing appearance, why would I need a blind date? Just throwing a flirtatious glance, isn’t that enough for any girl to rush over and throw themselves at me?"

Hearing Cheng Haoxuan’s self-satisfied rant, Lin Yuan and the others, hiding in the shadows, simultaneously made a vomiting gesture. If it weren’t for fear of exposing themselves, they definitely would have jumped out to point at Cheng Haoxuan’s nose and mock him thoroughly!

"Ah! If it’s a blind date, just let it be a blind date, but why not say who it is? Making it so mysterious, could it be a princess? Tsk, tsk, what’s so great about being a Prince Consort? Better to be a chef. Match me with a princess? I’d rather have the daughter of an Imperial Chef, that would truly suit my tastes..."

Cheng Haoxuan murmured to himself as he walked away, and meanwhile, Madam Cheng and the other two quietly slipped into Linjiang Tower without Cheng Haoxuan noticing. They dared not let Cheng Haoxuan know that they were watching from nearby. It was hard enough coaxing this brat out of bed; if they annoyed him further, this marriage arrangement would definitely fall through.

Lin Yuan and the others peeked out cautiously, Lin Wei whispering, "Big sister, you are really amazing, even guessing that Madam Cheng was secretly watching on the side."

Lin Yuan hummed and nodded with a rueful smile. She of course knew about this; she had seen plenty of such scenes where parents trick their children into blind dates while being shadowed by family members.

"Weiwei, are you really deciding to let Xuanxuan have this Young Master Cheng?" Xiao He still disagreed somewhat with the two’s decision, "I think Young Master Cheng suits you far better than Linzi. Most importantly, Madam Cheng really values you, and if you married Young Master Cheng, you definitely wouldn’t be bullied by your mother-in-law after the wedding. But with Linzi, tsk tsk, you’re in for a tough time."

Not just Xiao He, even Lin Yuan felt Cheng Haoxuan was more suitable for Lin Wei than Linzi. Even though Cheng Haoxuan wasn’t Madam Cheng’s biological son, she treated him no differently than her own.

However, no matter what the two of them said, Lin Wei’s heart already harbored someone else, just as she herself had stated—all others paled in comparison to the one in her heart.

Lin Yuan could deeply empathize. Even if Xia Zheng was domineering, greedy, and sometimes rather petty, for her, he was worth his weight in gold.
