Chapter 387 - He Played To Be Oblivious To Their Obvious Actions
Liwei was tired of hearing Jin Liang's rant and was about to hang up the phone when Xie Ming snatched his phone.
" Brother Liang, you can come here to stay. And if you come quickly, then you can enjoy dinner with us since it's hot." Xie Ming talked to Jin Liang on the phone with Jin Liang.
She knows that Liwei would have rejected him but she didn't have the heart to do so. She knows how much Jin Liang loved her cooking and after that kidnapping incident, they didn't have a proper chat since that day.
She knows that Jin Liang must have felt bad about it and she has heard this from Liwei as well that Jin Liang was in bad condition after he found out that she was kidnapped.
He blamed himself for not picking her up that day and telling her to take a taxi.
Jin Liang was surprised when Xie Ming suddenly took the phone.
But his expressions brightened when he heard her words.
" Okay. I'll be there in 5 minutes. But don't eat dinner without me." He said as he started the car engine.
-_-
Xie Ming was flustered as she stared at the phone which he had hung up.
It took them 30 minutes to reach here from the hospital then how can he come here in 5 minutes?
Even if there is no traffic and nothing, it would still take him 10-15 minutes unless he comes flying rather than driving.
But to her surprise, he came in exactly 5 minutes while she was busy putting the cutlery on the table.
She stared at him in shock and asked, " You came in five minutes. How?" She was in shock seeing him coming so early.
Jin Liang rubbed his hair in embarrassment as he walked towards the dining table and said, " Ahm, I was nearby so it didn't take much time for me to come here." He lied while smiling awkwardly.
He has already planned to sleep at Jin Villa and has driven to the area. But he stopped in front of Jin Villa's road to call Liwei and ask his permission.
Because he knows that if he would have barged without announcing, his brother would have thrown him out.
He couldn't possibly go to Jin Mansion tonight because his Mother is there and she will chop him off because he has annoyed his mother a lot in the morning.
His mother has given him a warning that she will see him at home.
It would be stupid of him to go to his house at this critical moment. He doesn't want to get beaten by his Mom, especially since he is no longer a child.
…..
Xie Ming nodded as she heard his explanation and said, " Hmm, it's good that you came early. Food is still hot and we're yet to start."
After washing his hands, Jin Liang sat on the chair opposite of Xie Ming while Liwei sat in the center chair.
Xie Ming was on his right and Liang on his left.
" Wow. The dinner is sure extravagant. Xie Ming, is today something special? Or did you know that I was coming in advance?" He asked in surprise.
" No, why did you ask?" Xie Ming asked while serving him his rice bowl.
" Because you cooked so much. Do you guys eat daily dishes like this? " Jin Liang was shocked because it was fine to cook many dishes for special occasions.
But today is nothing special and he came without notifying in advance, so she didn't have possibly prepared all this for him. If they eat like this daily, then they sure have a luxurious life.
There was sweet and sour pork, Kung Pao Chicken, fried dumplings and colored dumplings with fried cabbage and green colored rice.
It was colorful and beautiful. The meal was appetizing. He was already salivating.
Xie Ming smiled awkwardly as she glanced at Liwei. It was a special day because she was trying to coax him with her food.
But Jin Liang was lucky to visit them.
" I..just made them because I wanted to make something good for your brother. Also, the dumplings were already made. I just put it on the table."
Jin Liang nodded but his eyes widened in surprise, " Kung Pao Chicken? Wow, Xie Ming, you sure are talented. Even Mom cannot make this dish very well because it is very complicated to get its flavors right, and if you made this one good, then I have to acknowledge that you're a better cook than mom." He said while exaggerating.
Xie Ming waved her hands and said, " It's nothing. And don't compare me with Mother. I don't know anything about cooking in front of her." She felt weird when he compared her to Mother Jin.
Jin Liang doesn't know what to say. How could he compare her to Mother Jin?
It was better that she was not here otherwise it would have created a rift between them.
After that Jin Liang's gaze fell on rice.
" Xie Ming, why are rice in green color? Did you put food color in it?" He asked while looking at the rice strangely.
He doesn't like to eat food colors. As an artist and singer, he has to take care of his health and his vocals and food coloring are not good for health.
Xie Ming shook her head and answered, " I didn't use food coloring, instead I used spinach to make spinach rice. That's why they are green in color." Xie Ming explained it to him.
Spinach rice is not only healthy but delicious as well. It also looks beautiful in visual as well.
" Now stop talking and eat." Liwei hit Jin Liang with his chopsticks on his head to make him shut up.
Xie Ming smiled seeing the exchange between them.
.
" Here". Xie Ming was surprised when Liwei picked up a piece of pork and placed it in her bowl.
Xie Ming smiled and ate that piece lovingly. He was considerate towards her during the whole dinner.
He kept putting dishes on her bowl while Jin Liang was staring at them with a nauseated look.
He felt like puking seeing his brother acting so lovingly in front of him.
He can't believe that he was the same iceberg who never cared about anyone and never dated any girl in the past.
He ruthlessly rejected all the girls in the college when they confessed to him or tried to approach him. His family was worried about him because they were not sure if he likes girls or not.
However, despite his ruthlessness, girls never stopped coming after him. But he never looked at them even for a minute.
And it was unbelievable that he gets to see this revolutionary moment.
' Mr. Jin, the president of Jin Corporation is a wife slave in reality.' he shook his head helplessly while eating his food.
He tried to ignore their existence and ate his dinner unpleasantly.
It was unpleasant because he couldn't ignore the things that they were doing under the table.
However, he played to be oblivious to their obvious actions and flirting.
