Chapter 827: My Request Is Too Abrupt.

Shi Caining was very depressed. If she had known that he would come, she would not have cooked. However, she did not expect that Su Ranqing was also a smart person. He had specially made a 'surprise attack' and did not even give her a chance to prepare.

The atmosphere at the dining table was exceptionally harmonious. Su Ranqing's eloquence was not bad and he was having a very good chat with Li Tingshen. Li Ensu also had a small chat with Shi Caining.

When they were about to have a full meal, Su Ranqing suddenly said, "Caining, I will be outside in a few days to find inspiration for my new song. Are you interested in going outside to relax?"

Shi Caining was stunned. Who was this Su Ranqing? It was only the second time they met, yet he asked her to go out to sketch?

Before Caining could reply, Li Tingshen smiled and said, "Caining has nothing to do during this period of time. Since you're so free, why don't you go out with Ranqing to relax your body and mind?"

Shi Caining's heart sank. Did this Li Tingshen really want to sell her out?

Putting aside Su Ranqing's character, how could she, Shi Caining, agree to an invitation from a stranger and even go out to sketch? Who knew how long he would be gone for?

"I'll think about it first, because I still have some things on hand..." Shi Caining said tactfully.

Su Ranqing smiled so much that her eyes were curved. He said gently, "It's fine. I can wait for you to have some time. Uncle Li, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid that if she really follows me out, you won't be able to eat such good dishes for the time being."

Li Tingshen smiled faintly. "Of course not. Although she's a good cook, you can't treat her like a servant. She's my daughter, so she has her own space."

Shi Caining laughed coldly in her heart. His words were better than his singing. She did not see him respecting her and giving her her own space!

Shi Caining was a little anxious and wanted to reject, but when she raised her head, she met Li Tingshen's gaze. His gaze carried a hint of warning.

As a result, the rejection that was almost at the tip of her tongue suddenly turned into this. "Let's take a look first. I'll inform Mr. Su when I have time."

This kind of tactful and ambiguous speech was neither a rejection nor an agreement. It also left Li Tingshen and Su Ranqing with face.

"Alright then, I'll wait for the good news." Su Ranqing said with a faint smile. His body had a hint of a scholar's aura.

Li Ensu secretly laughed, but Shi Caining's heart was extremely depressed.

After dinner, Li Tingshen asked Shi Caining to accompany Su Ranqing to walk in the back garden. She did not refuse and walked out the back door with him.

The two of them had just left when Madam Li smiled and said, "Haha, it seems that Ranqing really likes her. It's only the second time they've met and he's already asked her out!"

Li Ensu smiled lightly. "I didn't expect that kid to change so quickly."

When he first met Shi Caining, his eyes did not show any surprise. He looked rather calm towards her, but she did not expect that there would be a follow-up.

Li Shengyuan snorted coldly. "Maybe he's just going after sister's cooking!"

Li Tingshen rolled his eyes at him. "Caining isn't bad either. Can't you allow Ranqing to like your sister?"

Li Shengyuan pursed his lips. "I'll allow it. Although Su Ranqing is the son of the Su family, who knows what kind of character he has!"

Li Tingshen was about to say something when he suddenly realized something. When did the four of them have the time to sit together in such a harmonious manner?

In the past, it was either scolding or the atmosphere was cold. It seemed like the changes that Caining had brought to the family were really too much.

Shi Caining walked into the back garden. The streetlights were hazy, but they gave off a very hazy and romantic atmosphere.

"Caining, I'm really sorry. Just now, my request is too abrupt. But... don't misunderstand me," Su Ranqing said with a faint smile.
