Chi Jiao used WeChat to call for Yan Zhengchen and Gong Lu. Then, she prepared to personally go to the main hall to tell her grandparents that it was time to eat.
However, when she passed by the flowerbed in the courtyard, she clearly felt that something was missing.
Chi Jiao stopped in front of the flowerbed and stared at it carefully. Her eyes instantly darkened.
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 had casually given it a name that she thought was very cute.
Initially, she had no intention of selling Hong Zai for the time being. Because it was too difficult to survive, she had only made one.
Its value could not be measured with money.
Hong Zai had only bloomed this year. When the flower wilted, its stamen could be used as a seed.
If Hong Zai's stamen was used as a seed, the survival rate would be much higher. When the time came, it could be mass-produced.
Hong Zai was very helpful for the cardiovascular disease of the elderly. Chi Jiao planned to donate Hong Zai's patent to the country's Traditional Chinese Medicine research firm after it was mass-produced.
However, she didn't expect the flower to suddenly disappear.
It looked like someone had plucked it away.
Chi Jiao stood in front of the flowerbed with an umbrella in her hand for dozens of seconds before walking towards the main hall.
Jiang Shen was still chatting with Ou Zhenglin about 117's development in recent years. Ou Zhenglin quite liked to listen.
Jiang Xiaoli sat beside Jiang Shen. She had changed into casual clothes.
Chi Jiao's gaze lingered on her for a moment before she turned to Ou Zhenglin and Liu Ruhua. "Grandpa, Grandma, Brother Quan has prepared dinner. Let's go to the dining room for dinner."
"How can we let a guest cook?" Liu Ruhua immediately stood up and looked at her reproachfully.
Chi Jiao walked up to her and hugged her arm. She said coquettishly, "Grandma, Brother Quan won't be an outsider from now on. Besides, I've already helped. I didn't let Brother Quan be busy alone."
Liu Ruhua smiled when she heard that. "You sure can't wait to make him one of us."
"Grandma, there are other people here," Chi Jiao whispered to her. "You can't be like this."
Liu Ruhua knew that Chi Jiao was thin-skinned, so the smile on her face became even more obvious. She patted her little hand and said, "It's been hard on you and Xiao Jue. Let's go and try Xiao Jue's culinary skills.
Chi Jiao nodded as her gaze landed on Jiang Shen and Jiang Xiaoli. "Deputy Team Leader Jiang, the two of you can join us as well."
Since he was a guest, he had to act as a host.
A few minutes later, in the restaurant.
At the huge mahogany dining table, Gong Lu and Yan Zhengchen looked at the delicious food on the table in front of them. They couldn't believe that this was made by Quan Jue.
If word got out that the men of the Quan Family knew how to cook, people would probably think that it was a fantasy.
But at the same time, their impression of Quan Jue had improved by a few degrees.
Their Jiaojiao was quite picky when it came to food. Since Quan Jue knew how to cook, it shouldn't be a problem for him to take care of her daily needs.
"Xiao Jue, it's really been hard on you," Ou Zhenglin said with a smile.
Quan Jue smiled humbly. "I just made some dishes. It wasn't hard at all."
When Chi Jiao saw that Quan Jue was treating her grandfather with more and more respect, her heart felt like it was smeared with honey.
How could she not know that it was precisely 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.
