(58) I Wasn't Poisoned After All

However, Lin Yiyi was quite confident in her own cooking ability.

She smiled and nodded before pointing at the plates of food in front of them and said, “Mom, try them. I made these myself. You be the judge, okay?”

On the table, there were main dishes such as tomato and brisket and stew pork feet, and also delicate seafood dishes such as prawns and tofu, and baked wild red shrimp with mashed potato and cheese. Also a few more commonly seen dishes such as garlic and pork stir fry and sautéed eggplant.

Ms. Lin Ping was speechless.

Her hand was lifted up in the air for a long, long time without her picking up anything with her chopsticks. Finally, she still had to ask, “Did you really make all these?”

Would she get food poisoning after this meal?

An eerier thought crossed Ms. Lin Ping’s mind.

All of the dishes looked very appealing. In addition, they were placed on very fancy dishware, making them even more appealing.

Their aroma entered her stomach through her nose. She was getting hungry just from the smell!

She didn’t wait for an answer before she picked up a piece of pig foot and put it into her bowl and took a big bite out of it.

The taste was perfect. The piece of pig foot was fatty but not greasy. It was melting away in her mouth….

This was ridiculously delectable!

Ms. Lin Ping didn’t have time to critique. She couldn’t wait to take the second bite after the first, then the third…

Lin Yiyi, who was waiting for her to opine, “……”

She never knew that Ms. Lin Ping was a foodie.

Mr. Gu Chengyi, too, was also observing and waiting for his wife to opine. He didn’t expect her to just eat away.

What the… ?

How was it he had the sudden urge to try a piece just from watching his wife eat?

Mr. Gu lifted his chopsticks reservedly and also picked up a piece of pig foot for himself…

He was still slowly chewing the first two bites. After that, he stopped talking as well.

After an entire piece of pig foot, Ms. Lin Ping wiped her mouth and finally gave a positive comment, “Wasn’t bad.”

As she was speaking, she already picked herself up a piece of prawn. That same piece had found its way into her mouth as soon as she had finished talking. 

Gu Chengyi swallowed the meat from the pork foot and squinted his eyes, “Now that we know how well you can cook, your mom will feel much better about you opening up your own restaurant.”

Meng Yuran knew that his mother was trying to convince grandma and grandpa with her cooking.

His mom’s cooking had been attested by many, definitely no problem there.

As such, he remained quietly to one side and just let the other two sang her praises.

As her son, he, too, felt proud when she received compliments.

That being said, as the food started to deplete more and more on the table and the level continued to drop inside each individual plate, he finally couldn’t hold out any longer but joined the devouring team.

This was the same amount of food that used to only be for the three of them. Now they had added two more, how would there be enough?

Everybody was completely satisfied with the meal…

With the exception of Meng Yuran, who was a growing boy.

Ms. Lin Ping rubbed her belly afterwards and said, “I wasn’t poisoned after all.”

She was very relieved.
