Thank You for Stepping Aside (29)

"Yeah, the take-out from this restaurant is said to be delicious. Let's try it," Zhu Lingling answered with a smile.

"When Chief Gao told me that we'd eat at home, I thought…you'd cook." Chen Yuning continued to play coy and beamed at Zhu Lingling.

"I guess my Old Gao didn't tell you that I'm a terrible cook… I can't treat my guests with those horrible dishes… After all, you've done a deed of merit for the bureau."

"You flatter me… I just bumped into the thief."

They chatted for a while and then sat down at the dinner table.

To be honest, Chen Yuning had no appetite.

She had thought she'd eat with Gao Ran alone, but her plan had been totally disrupted, ruining her appetite.

But in front of Chief Gao, she had to pick up the chopsticks and nibble on the food.

"Auntie Chen, come on and eat more…" Boyuan pretended to be hospitable.

"Okay."
