Chapter 646: It’s Too Hard For Me
Grandpa definitely liked the Third Master. Why would he not like him? He was handsome and he knew how to please others. One could tell from the way his cousin had smashed the box office a few days ago. Not only had he made a lot of effort, but he had also spent money as though it was dirt. Besides, he had a high EQ. He could talk about anything and even play chess.
When it came to chess alone, he was already miles ahead of them. Grandpa had never played chess with the men at home and had thought little of them. It had not been easy for him to meet an opponent who was on par with him, so he was naturally overjoyed. There were only a few people who knew him well.
Ling Sheng gave her seat to her son so that he could play with the old folks. Then, she moved to the side and stole a look at Jun Shiyan, who was separated from her by her granduncle. She wanted to laugh, but when she saw the pitiful and helpless look in his eyes, she wanted to hug and comfort him.
He was so pitiful. He was like a lamb among a pack of wolves. There were only two men at home. If they had both been elders, she could not dare imagine how pitiful the Third Master’s state would have been.
Su Cunshi and Su Heng flanked Jun Shiyan from both sides and asked him when his body had recovered. Had he fully recovered? They asked him indirectly if he had any hidden illnesses.
In other words, if there was something wrong with him, he shouldn’t harm their family’s daughter!
Ling Sheng reached out quietly, wanting to cheer Jun Shiyan on when he was not paying attention. However, her hand did not reach him.
“Uncle will get you whatever you want, Sheng Sheng.” Cunshi had sharp eyes and had already discovered her dishonest actions.
Ling Sheng pretended to be serious and said, “I want to eat a prawn.”
Jun Shiyan was about to pick up some food when Su Heng picked up a prawn with his chopsticks. He stood up and placed it on the plate in front of Ling Sheng. “Eat more. Eat more prawns.”
Ling Sheng did not know whether she should laugh or cry. She stole a look at the man sitting across from her. Third Master, it’s too difficult for me. It’s really difficult. Wuwuwu!
When Su Cunshi and Su Heng saw Jun Shiyan start peeling prawn shells, they thought he liked them a lot.
However, after peeling them, he passed the prawns to Ling Sheng and said gently, “Sheng Sheng.”
The Old Madam of the Su Family smiled lovingly. “Ah Yan really dotes on people.”
Su Cunshi and Su Heng looked at each other in hatred. They had miscalculated! He had stolen the limelight again!
Humph! So what if he was peeling prawns? Did he think no one knew how to peel prawns?
Ye Chuqing looked at her husband and wondered why he was glaring at Third Master Jun. They had been married for more than 20 years, but he had never peeled a prawn for her. How could he glare at him?
Su Yan felt that this was a war without smoke and fire. Clearly, her grandparents liked the Third Master a lot. Her grandpa thought differently of him because he knew how to play chess. How was he meant to win her over?
However, after the prawn incident, even her sister-in-law thought highly of him. After all, what kind of woman would not like a man who only paid attention to her?
Ling Sheng picked up a peeled prawn and offered it to the two old folks, making them extremely happy.
Although the Old Master was old, he was blessed. He still had his appetite, and his teeth were fine, unlike other elders who had lost all their teeth.
In the past, Ling Sheng had not liked fish. It was not that she had not liked it at all, but she had been lazy and she’d hated fish bones. Ever since there was someone to pick fish bones for her, she had fallen in love with eating fish.
Jun Shiyan handed her a big piece of fish without any fish bones. He ignored the death stares of the two men on his left and right as he smiled lovingly at her while she took the fish. He exhorted her, “Check it when you feed Xiaoqi. I’m afraid I didn’t debone it completely.”
