Chapter 960: She was His Whole World “Yes. You have been here before, but you probably just don’t remember it.”
Ye Tianxin and her grandmother walked alongside Ye Linlang. As she gazed toward the Lang Garden, Ye Linlang felt incredibly familiar with all the grasses and trees.
Some fragmented images flashed across her mind, along with piercing pain.
Ye Linlang could not help but cry out in pain, “It hurts!”
“Mom, stop thinking about it. Uncle He has prepared many delicious dishes. Let’s go try them out.”
There were many visitors at the Lang Garden today. Even though Ye Tianxin and the others decided to go back to the Lang Garden at the last minute, the chefs at the Lang Garden used various culinary skills within a short time. They prepared a whole table of dishes with flavors from across the north and south regions.
Once they stepped inside the dining room, they could sense a warm atmosphere.
Accompanied by the warm air, there was a faint scent of winter plums.
“Uncle Shi Han, Uncle Zeus, please take your seats.”
The grandmother was old. Considering Ye Linlang’s emotional state, it was not appropriate for Xie Xuning to be the host. Ye Tianxin had to act as the young host, taking care of all the details and carefully attending to how everyone was feeling.
According to Ye Tianxin, Shi Han and Zeus were her benefactors. As such, they were entitled to sit in the top positions.
If Shi Han hadn’t rescued Ye Linlang back then, she might not be here today.
It would be unlikely for the family to reunite.
After everyone took their seats, Uncle He had people serve disinfected hot towels, which everyone wiped their hands with.
The Empire’s cuisines were rich and versatile. Additionally, it was a last-minute decision to hold a banquet; the kitchen did not get to prepare in advance.
To present a qualified family banquet in the shortest time, each chef made their signature dishes.
As Ye Linlang smelled the aroma of these dishes, she couldn’t help but put her hand on her stomach in hunger.
Xie Xuning was looking at Ye Linlang the whole time. He signaled for Uncle He to come next to him.
Xie Xuning poured a bowl of chicken soup and gave it to Uncle He.
“Miss, please have some chicken soup.”
Most people thought they were being served a bowl of clear water. The oil floating on the top had been taken away by the grease-soaking paper. Only clear chicken brow was in the bowl.
“Thank you.”
Ye Linlang accepted the soup and took a sip. The temperature was perfect, and it tasted delicious.
Everyone was eating while Xie Xuning remained silent as usual.
He was gazing at Ye Linlang quietly without saying a word. He looked at her in complete silence.
It was as if she was the only one there.
She was his whole world.
After lunch, Shi Han and Zues were ready to leave. Ye Linlang saw Shi Han leaving and immediately called out, “Let me go with you.”
Ye Tianxin looked at Ye Linlang with tears and said charmingly, “Mom, are you abandoning Grandma and me?”
“I…” Ye Linlang hesitated. She had her daughter and mother on one side and Shi Han on the other side. She was not sure if she should stay or leave. “I…”
Ye Tianxin looked at Shi Han. “Uncle Shi, maybe the two of you should stay. The two of you, plus my father and Brother Li, are four people, which is perfect for playing Mahjong. Whoever wins can treat us to a feast. How does that sound?”
Ye Linlang found it amusing as well. “That sounds wonderful; you guys should stay and play together.”
No matter what, it was best to keep Ye Linlang around. If she left, how could Xie Xuning cultivate a relationship with her?
Xie Xuning did not want to stay far away from Ye Linlang, even though she was frightened of being with him.
