Chapter 667: Scram!
“She doesn’t like those places.” Jiang Shenyuan smiled. “The two ladies do not have many chances to meet each other. Why not have a meal together?”
“Scram,” said Lu Chengzhou.
Just as he finished speaking, Gu Mang turned around. “Lawyer Jiang, do you want to join us?”
Lu Chengzhou said nothing.
Jiang Shenyuan glanced at Lu Chengzhou as he slowly smiled. “Sure, what do you guys want to eat?”
They had just stopped in front of Lu Chengzhou’s SUV. Holding Meng Jinyang’s arm, Gu Mang turned around and stood on one leg languidly. “Let’s go to the mart and cook ourselves.”
Hearing this, Jiang Shenyuan was dazed. He asked, “Who will cook?”
If he remembered correctly, both Gu Mang and Meng Jinyang could not cook.
Gu Mang raised her refined brows. “Don’t you know how to cook?”
Jiang Shenyuan was speechless.
…
On the way to the mart.
Meng Jinyang took Jiang Shenyuan’s car.
Lu Chengzhou stepped on the brake in front of the red light. Then, he turned to Gu Mang who was sitting in the front passenger seat. “Is Jiang Shenyuan good at cooking?”
Gu Mang was holding a small crystal box of sweets which she had retrieved from the storage box.
Judging from the packaging, it looked expensive.
Hearing Lu Chengzhou’s question, she glanced at him from her peripheral vision. “It’s not bad.”
He asked further, “Are you scared that I can’t cook?”
Looking at him, Gu Mang remained silent for a few seconds and said expressionlessly, “No.”
Lu Chengzhou spoke frankly. “You hesitated.”
Gu Mang was speechless.
“I put extra effort to learn things that I am not good at.” As Lu Chengzhou spoke, he shifted his gaze away. “You don’t have to trouble another man.”
Gu Mang raised her eyebrows. “It seems like Young Master Lu learned many things behind my back.”
Lu Chengzhou laughed, looking carefree. “It’s my first time after all, so I learned a lot. Sister Mang, do you wish to try everything?”
Gu Mang said nothing in reply.
Gu Mang stared at him for a few seconds before she said expressionlessly, “Can you not flirt with me so suddenly?”
The left turn light turned green.
Lu Chengzhou stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel to the left slowly. He said rather seriously, “I will give you a heads-up next time.”
Gu Mang said nothing.
Lu Chengzhou glanced at her and smiled gently. “Have you thought of what you want to eat?”
Gu Mang took a piece of chocolate from the box and held it in front of her fiance’s lips.
Lu Chengzhou opened his mouth.
Then, he heard her say nonchalantly, “I’ll think about it when we shop.”
…
Meanwhile…
Meng Jinyang was slightly concerned. “Big Brother Jiang, it’s not too nice of us to disturb Mr. Lu and Gu Mang, is it?”
“Gu Mang is fine with it.” Jiang Shenyuan was following Lu Chengzhou’s car. “Did you hear what she said earlier? She asked me to cook. I’m just a temporary handy-man.”
Meng Jinyang smiled. “Then I’m the third-wheel.”
Jiang Shenyuan looked at her using his peripheral vision. His gaze landed on her vivacious face. He smiled. “Just pick whatever you want to eat later. They are treating us, so there is no need to be restrained.”
Meng Jinyang shook her head, still smiling. “Mr. Lu can just shop for Gu Mang.”
Jiang Shenyuan shifted his gaze to the front and said in a gentle voice, “Sure. If you want anything, I can buy it for you later.”
…
At the mart they bought a lot of snacks for the two girls and all the ingredients they needed for dinner. Afterwards, they drove back to Royal Garden.
Once inside, Lu Chengzhou and Jiang Shenyuan carried the groceries as they walked towards the kitchen counter. Gu Mang hung her baseball cap on a hook in the entrance hall casually and followed them inside.
Lu Chengzhou had an open kitchen.
Gu Mang took out the ingredients from the shopping bags. She was prepared to help them.
Meng Jinyang removed the cling wrap from the vegetables.
Lu Chengzhou suddenly snatched the items from Gu Mang’s hands.
She stared at him.
