Chi Jiao called out to Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu on WeChat, then prepared to personally go to the main hall to tell her grandparents that dinner was ready.
However, when she passed by the flowerbed in the yard, she could clearly feel that something was missing.
When she stopped in front of the flower bed, Chi Jiao stared at it carefully, her eyes darkening instantly.
Her Hong Zai was gone.
Hong Zai was a medicinal flower that she had raised for three to four years. It was a new breed that she had developed herself. She casually came up with a name that she thought was very cute.
Initially, she didn’t have any plans to sell Hong Zai as it was too difficult for the flower to live. Therefore, she had only made one.
Its value could not be measured with money.
Hong Zai had just bloomed this year. Once the petals wilted, the stamen could be used as a seed.
If Hong Zai’s stamen was used as a seed, the chances of successfully planting it would be much higher. At that time, mass production could be achieved.
Hong Zai was very helpful for cardiovascular diseases in old people. Chi Jiao planned to donate Hong Zais’s patent to the country’s traditional Chinese medicine research firm after it was mass-produced.
She didn’t expect the flower to suddenly disappear.
It looked like it had been taken away.
Chi Jiao stood in front of the flower bed with an umbrella and stared blankly for dozens of seconds before walking towards the main hall.
Jiang Shen was still chatting with Ou Zhenglin about the development of 117 in recent years. Ou Zhenglin enjoyed listening to him.
Jiang Xiaoli sat beside Jiang Shen as she changed into casual clothes.
Chi Jiao’s gaze lingered on her for a moment before turning to Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua. “Grandpa, Grandma, Brother Quan has prepared dinner. Let’s go to the dining hall.”
“How can we let our guests cook?” Liu Ruhua immediately stood up and looked at her reproachfully.
Chi Jiao walked up to her and hugged her arm. “Grandma, Brother Quan won’t be an outsider anymore. Besides, I helped him out. I didn’t let him work alone.”
Liu Ruhua laughed. “You sure can’t wait to make him a part of our family.”
“Grandma, there are others here.” Chi Jiao said softly to Liu Ruhua, “You can’t do this.”
Liu Ruhua knew that she was shy, so the smile on her face became even more obvious. She patted Chi Jiao’s petite hand. “It’s been hard on you and Xiao Jue. Let’s go and try his cooking together.”
Chi Jiao nodded, and her gaze landed on Jiang Shen and Jiang Xiaoli. “Vice Head Jiang, the two of you can come along as well.”
Since they were guests, she still had to play her role as the host.
A few minutes later, in the dining room.
In front of the huge mahogany dining table, Gong Lu and Yan Zhengchen looked at the delicious food in front of them. They couldn’t believe that Quan Jue had prepared this.
If word got out that the men from the Quan family knew how to cook, they would definitely think that it was a fairytale.
However, at the same time, their opinions of Quan Jue were now much better than before.
—Their Jiaojiao was quite picky when it came to food. Since Quan Jue knew how to cook, taking care of Jiaojiao’s daily needs shouldn’t be a problem.
“Xiao Jue, it’s been hard on you,” Ou Zhenglin said to him with a smile.
Quan Jue smiled humbly. “It’s just some food. It’s not difficult.”
When Chi Jiao saw that Quan Jue was treating her grandfather more and more respectfully, her heart felt like it was smeared with honey.
How could she not know that it was because he cared about her that he respected her elders?
However, she didn’t know when Brother Quan’s attitude towards her father would change.
