At last, Father Jiang chose the restaurant. For them, to avoid being exposed to the public, it must be a restaurant with great privacy.
As for Ming Shu, she was open to anywhere as long as it offered food.
"Niannian, how's the company going recently?" Father Jiang asked, just to check whether the entertainment company had gone bankrupt under his daughter's control.
"Just as usual," Ming Shu said casually, her greedy eyes staring at the steaming pig's feet.
The dish serving is so slow! I'm going to die of starvation.
Father Jiang was clearly dissatisfied with Ming Shu's perfunctory attitude, so he turned to Jiang Xun, who had lowered his head toward the table. "Xun'er, tell me about it."
Hearing his name, Jiang Xun raised his head to reveal a poker face and answered, "Niannian is doing great with management."
"You don't have to cover for her. She isn't expected to do well with her loose personality. I heard that you were losing quite a lot of employees, right?" Father Jiang knew exactly everything about his own daughter.
"It's true, Niannian did run the company well. The empty positions have been occupied by new staff, and everything is operating normally now." Only, we're being choked by Jinyu.
Certainly, the last sentence was swallowed by Jiang Xun. But Father Jiang must have known this if he was at all interested.
Jiang Xun was reluctant to say it in front of Niannian for fear that she might be upset.
"Come on, you two. Can't we just enjoy this hard-won family time and have a meal leisurely? Don't talk about work anymore." Mother Jiang pinched Father Jiang, so Father Jiang had to shut up. "Xun'er, Mom has something to tell you. You see, you've grown up and you're at the perfect age for marriage. Maybe go find yourself a good wife?"
The topic changed to him so dramatically; Jiang Xun was still distracted, and he subconsciously looked to Ming Shu. Meanwhile, she was keeping a close watch on the pig's feet, not noticing his gaze at all.
In a dry voice, Jiang Xun said softly, "Mom... For the moment I don't want to talk about this."
"Stop saying that! You are not young anymore. If you really like someone, just bring her home. The Jiang family is not like other families. As long as the girl behaves herself, no matter what her family background is, you can stay with each other."
"As long as you like," Father Jiang also added.
"..." Jiang Xun wondered, Why is the birthday topic always the same? Can't they just change the channel?
Resting his eyes on Ming Shu, Jiang Xun asked tentatively, "Niannian, do you like someone?"
"The pig's feet!" Ming Shu blurted out.
"Pfft!"
Mother Jiang didn't refrain from laughing; even Father Jiang was shaking with laughter. Only Jiang Xun looked a little cloudy, but he hid it away as Mother Jiang looked over.
"If Niannian is hungry, just eat," Jiang Xun said considerately.
"Go ahead, go ahead." Father Jiang waved his hands, having no other choice. There were no guests today, so just forget table manners.
Hearing this, Ming Shu swiftly reached for the pig's feet, her eyes shining with joy. Yet the pig's feet were taken away by another hand immediately before her. Ming Shu's eyes opened wide at once.
