Chapter 214 - Chef

"Grandfather!" If it was you, you wouldn't be able to calmly accept something that has happened between me and Li Li! This matter, can't be blamed on Chu Liang! " Xiang Chen Xi interrupted Xiang Shi Yun.

Xiang Shi Yun was stifled. She asked in a daze, "You and Li Li, really happened?"

Xiang Chen Xi did not say anything, he only covered his face in annoyance.

"It's all my grandpa's fault. If grandpa didn't object to all of you at the beginning, there wouldn't have been so much trouble." Xiang Shi Yun was also somewhat blaming herself.

Chen Shu advised: "Grandfather, you shouldn't say such a thing. If Li Li wants to ruin the relationship between Chen Xi and Chu Liang, it will be the same no matter what." With Chen Xi here, it would be inconvenient for her to explain to her grandfather why Chu Liang wasn't willing to marry Chen Xi.

The old man sat on the bedside as he looked at Xiang Chen Xi's depressed face. This grandson of his, when had he ever been so dispirited? It seemed that he really loved that Tao Chu Liang a lot.

"Chen Xi, it's alright. As long as you coax that girl Chu Liang, as a girl, you will always be easily moved. Don't be discouraged for now. It's also good to give each other a little more time. " Xiang Shi Yun began to advise Xiang Chen Xi.

"Grandfather, Chu Liang doesn't even want to see me right now. I didn't even get a chance to speak to her. " Xiang Chen Xi said helplessly.

Xiang Shi Yun went silent, she did not think that the situation would turn out like this. He pondered for a moment and said: "How about this, this girl has also helped our group so much, Chen Shu will treat her to a meal at home, she can't reject her, right?"

Xiang Chen Xi suddenly raised his head, and looked at Xiang Shi Yun with an expression of pleasant surprise, and laughed: "Grandfather, you still have a way!"

Chen Shu said: "Actually, even if you don't eat, Chu Liang should still be here. She comes to see Grandfather every week, if he knows that Grandfather has recovered, he would definitely be very happy. Alright, let me handle this matter. "

The time was set to be three days later, because Xiang Shi Yun still needed to rest for two more days. The doctor had come to see him and praised him for her health. At such an age, after experiencing such a serious illness, how could she still be in such good spirits? The old tutor was overjoyed to hear this and realized that blood had suddenly flowed out of his head. He was also slightly glad in his heart.

This person had died once before, so a lot of things had gone according to plan. He decided not to interfere in the group competition anymore and let Xiang Chen Xi take care of everything. In the future, all he could do was play ball and play everywhere. Whenever Chen Shu and Chen Xi had children, she would take them.

It had been three years since Xiang Chen Xi had visited Tao Chu Liang's home, and he was actually quite disappointed in his heart. Not long after Qing Hao sent her home that night, when he heard someone knocking on the door, his heart moved and he subconsciously wondered if it might be Chen Xi.

When he opened the door, he saw Sheng Jue and Chen Shu.

"Chen Shu! "Why are you guys here?" Tao Chu Liang was surprised.

"Chu Liang, are you alright?" Chen Shu and Sheng Jue entered the room, Chen Shu placed a few pills on the tea table, "These are some potions that I bought from overseas that can change blood stasis, you must insist on eating them. If you insist on eating it, you'll get better. "

Tao Chu Liang became sad. He would go to the hospital to check every few days, but the results were not any better. However, she still said: "I understand, leave it there." Tao Chu Liang took the kettle and poured some water for the two of them.

Sheng Jue and Chen Shu looked at each other, feeling a little uncomfortable in their hearts. Chu Liang's sickness did not seem to be getting better.

"Chu Liang, Grandfather is awake." Chen Shu pulled her over and held her hand.

Tao Chu Liang was startled, then revealed a smile: "Really? When did this happen!? "

"Three days ago, he was recuperating during these two days. His condition is much better now that he's in high spirits!"

"Great!" If Xiang Shi Yun woke up, then Chen Xi would definitely be very happy as well.

"Grandpa heard about the things you did for the corporation and wants to invite you over for a meal. We can have a nice chat." Chen Shu laughed.

"Family?" Tao Chu Liang muttered.

"Yeah, in our hearts, you have long since become a family, right?"

"That's right, Chu Liang, it's a joyous occasion for Grandfather to recover from his illness. You can go and take a look. It was Grandpa who asked us to invite you. " Sheng Jue said.

Tao Chu Liang was surprised: "Grandfather called you here? Did he, did he accept me? "

"Not only did he accept you, he also said that he would thank you well." Chen Shu smiled.

However, Tao Chu Liang quickly recovered from his initial happiness. Going to Grandfather's house to eat dinner meant …

"Is Chen Xi going as well?" Tao Chu Liang looked at the two of them nervously. Chen Shu nodded.

Tao Chu Liang withdrew his hand from Chen Shu's grasp and said indifferently: "Then I won't be going. It's better if Chen Xi and I don't meet each other."

"Chu Liang! It's just a meal, Chen Xi will not bother you. Besides, do you have the heart to reject your grandfather's request? "

Tao Chu Liang was silent for a moment, his heart struggling. Actually, she was also secretly rejoicing in her heart at being able to see Chen Xi again. But reason told her he shouldn't. Finally, Tao Chu Liang sighed and said: Alright, but I'll tell you in advance, I'm going to visit Grandfather.

Chen Shu had long seen through Chu Liang's thoughts, so she said: "Yes, we all know that you're going to see Grandfather."

When night fell, Chen Shu and Sheng Jue went to fetch Tao Chu Liang. Tao Chu Liang was wearing a set of white evening clothes, just like the first time she came to Xiang Shi Yun's house. He was still as simple and elegant as before, but now, her face was haggard and her eyes were not as lively as before. This was because Tao Chu Liang's eyes were slowly starting to lose focus.

Actually, the one who was most nervous was Xiang Chen Xi. He had already not seen Chu Liang for a few days, he missed her a lot, and wanted to perform better at this family banquet. Maybe Chu Liang would be able to notice him again this way, so this family banquet was made by Xiang Chen Xi.

Because Xiang Chen Xi had joined them, the kitchen of the Xiang Family had become extremely nervous. They had long heard that the son of the board of directors had cooking skills that could compare to that of Michelin, but now that Xiang Chen Xi was actually going to cook, they were extremely focused.

Tao Chu Liang entered the house under Chen Shu's lead. The butler greeted her very respectfully and she responded politely. Tao Chu Liang had already made up his mind. What he wanted to do today, was to maintain his cold attitude towards Xiang Chen Xi; furthermore, he wanted to do it in front of Xiang Shi Yun.

When Xiang Shi Yun heard that Tao Chu Liang had arrived, she personally went downstairs to welcome her.

"Chu Liang, sit. How about staying in the new company? That brat Chen Xi, he's quite considerate. He knows what you like. " Xiang Shi Yun brought Tao Chu Liang and sat face to face on the sofa.

"Grandfather, congratulations on your recovery!" The company is doing pretty well. We'll be opening our second offline store soon. " Tao Chu Liang used the corner of her eyes to observe his surroundings but he could not find Xiang Chen Xi's figure. She could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He thought that maybe Chen Xi was trying his best to avoid meeting him.

"If you don't feel good staying here, you should come back to the group at any time and take care of group affairs together with Chen Xi. I don't care about the group anymore, and since Chen Shu isn't an expert in this field, I can leave it to you and Chen Xi to handle, too. " The old man calls you and Chen Xi by their first names.

Tao Chu Liang frowned, did his grandfather not know that he had already separated from Chen Xi? She lightly said: "Grandfather, Xiang Group is still surnamed Xiang. With Chen Xi, it will be enough. Now that I have a new company, I just want to run it well. After all, this is what I really love. " Tao Chu Liang's words clearly showed his intention to refuse.

"Chu Liang, aren't you being too formal? You have merged the entire group into the Xiang Group, so you can say that the Xiang Group is also part of the group, if you really need to be clear about each other, then I can only get Chen Xi to return the shares of the Taur Group to you. "

Chen Shu listened from the side and thought, this ginger was indeed older and spicier.

It was naturally impossible for Tao Chu Liang to take back some shares of the Taur Group, so he could only say: "Grandfather is right. To me, Chen Shu is like a blood sister to me. Tao Chu Liang did not speak about Xiang Chen Xi.

At this moment, the butler came to serve tea.

Tao Chu Liang couldn't tell, but when he held out the coffee cup, she was stunned. It was his favorite coffee, the Blue Mountain of England. He took a sip and found that it was sugar-free. Was this too much of a coincidence that the kitchen people knew of his preferences?

But before Tao Chu Liang could continue to be surprised, the butler said: "Young Master has repeatedly reminded me, that Miss Tao does not like sweet coffee, and told me to specially prepare this Blue Mountain."

Tao Chu Liang was still holding onto the cup of coffee, and felt that the coffee had warmed his heart. She picked up the dessert from the bowl and brought it to his eyes. It was his favorite pineapple pie, and after taking a bite, it was made on the spot. The ingredients used were extremely exquisite. She knew clearly that this was the taste of the pineapple pie Xiang Chen Xi had made.

Tao Chu Liang put down the pineapple pie and suddenly felt that he couldn't swallow it anymore. She thought of the past, when Chen Xi had specially gone to Taiwan to study in order to make this for her. He had heard that there was a pastry chef who made pineapple pie that was especially authentic.

Xiang Shi Yun and Chen Shu saw what happened, so she coughed and said: "What's wrong, little girl, don't you like it?"

Tao Chu Liang turned his head around, wiping away the tears that had just leaked out from his eyes, and laughed: "No, it's just that it's been a long time since I've eaten such an authentic pineapple pie. It looks like Grandfather's kitchen has invited a great chef!"

"Haha!" Of course, and as a chef, I don't need money! I heard that you were coming to eat today. I started preparing the ingredients two days ago and even went to a lot of places! Some of the ingredients were even flown in by air. For today's meal, there has been quite a bit of torture! "

Xiang Shi Yun kept on talking, he could already tell that this girl only had Chen Xi in her heart, but why was she not marrying Chen Xi? He could not help but feel that it was strange.

Tao Chu Liang remained silent. She already knew who the chef was. So it wasn't that Chen Xi hadn't come, nor was he trying to avoid his, he was just using his heart to cook for his. Thinking about it, he really hadn't eaten anything personally made by him for a long time. Tao Chu Liang felt unwell in his heart. He was obviously moved, but he had to pretend that he didn't care.
