After Gao Jianxin came in, Xie Youshi greeted her and saw Yu Zhiyi pulling her to sit on the sofa opposite and telling her happily about winning the award last night.

And he was left alone.

After a moment of silence, he stood up and walked to the kitchen.

"Do you need help?"

Hearing a voice from behind, Yu Nanfeng turned his head and looked at Xie Youshi, "Second Young Master Xie can still cook?"

Remembering Yu Zhiyi's praise to Yu Nanfeng for "being able to walk out of the hall and into the kitchen", he took a few steps closer without giving up.

"Master Yu can cook, why can't I?"

After thinking about it, he added, "At least I can do it."

"..."

Yu Nanfeng raised his eyebrows and put the vegetables he was about to wash directly in front of him, "Okay, I'll ask Second Young Master Xie to wash these vegetables."

Seeing that he didn't just throw her out, the corner of her lips curled up when she thanked you, and she took it readily, "Okay."

Except for the sound of stir-frying in the pot, the kitchen was silent. Xie Youshi knew that Yu Nanfeng didn't want to have more contact with him, so he could only take the initiative to find a topic.

Glancing at the plum pork ribs he was cooking in the pot, Xie Youshi said, "Yiyi seems to like this dish very much. She won't get tired of eating it several times a week."

Xie Youshi knew that Yu Nanfeng would only say a few words to him if he mentioned topics related to Yu Zhiyi.

Sure enough, Yu Nanfeng was silent for a while and then answered, "Because this dish is my mother's specialty. She loved it when she was a child. Later, her mother passed away, so this became a way for her to miss her mother."

Hearing this, my heart trembled when I thanked you, and I suddenly understood something.

No wonder she always says she wants to eat this dish when she encounters something happy or unhappy.

It turns out that's why.

"Can you... teach me how to make this dish?"

Hearing these words, Yu Nanfeng moved his hands for a moment, and when he turned to look at Xie You, his unexpected eyes lost a bit of coldness.

When the meal started, Yu Zhiyi looked surprised when he saw Xie You taking off his suit jacket, wearing an apron, and holding dishes with his shirt sleeves rolled up.

Second Young Master Xie has never done this kind of work in his own family.

Why is this at her brother's house...

Thinking of something, she immediately approached him and whispered, "Did you go into the kitchen to promote your relationship with your brother-in-law?"

Xie Youshi: "..."

Why does this sound so awkward?

"He didn't kick you out. It seems your relationship has progressed." Yu Zhiyi gave him a thumbs up secretly.

Xie Youshi: "..."

From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yu Nanfeng coming over with dishes. Yu Zhiyi quickly stood up straight and said, "Um... Xinxin and I are responsible for opening the wine."

As she said this, she walked aside and took out the wine container.

After all the dishes were served, the red wine was sobered up.

Yu Zhiyi and Xie Youshi sat on the same side, while Gao Jianxin and Yu Nanfeng sat opposite them.

Yu Zhiyi looked around the three of them and couldn't help but sigh, "It's not easy. We can finally gather the four of us for a dinner tonight."

"Come on, let's raise a toast."

She was the first to pick up the wine glass, with a smile on her face, "To celebrate my winning the award, let's have one."

The other three people had no objection and raised their glasses at the same time. The four wine glasses touched together and made a crisp collision sound.

When the wine entered the mouth, it had a long and mellow aroma and a round taste. Gao Jian couldn't help but praise, "This wine is not bad."

"Yeah, drink more if you like it." Yu Zhiyi picked up the wine bottle and poured it for Gao Jianxin, who was sitting opposite, without forgetting to wink at her, "This is my husband's private collection."

These two bottles of red wine were specially selected by her from the wine cabinet where Xie Youshi collected famous wines.

Hearing this, Gao Jianxin smiled and raised his glass towards Xie Youshi, "Then tonight we will benefit from the Second Young Master."

"You're welcome." Xie Youshi responded with a polite toast, "If Miss Gao likes it, you are welcome to come to Xiziwan as a guest often. I also have some other wines in my house, and I can let Yiyi take you to choose and taste them."

"Yes, come to my house some other time, he has hidden a lot of good wine." Yu Zhiyi leaned close to the table, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered to Gao Jianxin, "If you like something by then, I will pack it up for you to take away. "

Gao Jianxin also imitated her approach and teased with a low smile: "Does your husband allow me to take him away?"

The two seemed to be whispering, but in fact everyone present could hear it. Xie Youshi rubbed Yu Zhiyi's head lovingly and naturally, smiled and said to Gao Jianxin, "Don't worry, she has the final say in my family's affairs."

Yu Nanfeng glanced at him and said nothing.

At the dinner table, the atmosphere was quite harmonious, but Yu Nanfeng didn't like talking to Xie Youshi very much, which made Yu Zhiyi a little depressed.

She said she was celebrating this game tonight, but actually she wanted to use this excuse to let Xie Youshi and Yu Nanfeng have more contact.

Seeing that the two of them couldn't talk together at this moment, and remembering what happened when the two men were alone in the kitchen just now, she couldn't help but think that if they were alone, maybe they could have more topics to talk about?

Xingmu turned and saw that Gao Jianxin had almost finished eating. Yu Zhiyi picked up another bottle of wine and pulled Gao Jianxin up to the rooftop.

The euphemistic claim is that he wants to chat with her about intimate things between besties, but in reality he just wants to leave the dining room to two men.

In fact, both Xie Youshi and Yu Nanfeng were well aware of her little thoughts, but they were both too proud to reveal it.

As soon as the two women left, the dining room suddenly became as quiet as a chicken.

Xie Youshi glanced at the cold-faced brother-in-law opposite him, picked up the wine bottle and added red wine to his empty glass.

"Can you tell me something about her childhood?"

He wanted to ease the relationship with his brother-in-law, but it was impossible in the business field because Yu Nanfeng wouldn't give him a chance at all.

It's better to trust Mrs. Xie's words and start from life, maybe it can bring the two of them closer.

Since Yu Nanfeng was willing to chat more with him on topics involving Yu Zhiyi, he could learn more about his wife's past from him.

However, Yu Nanfeng raised his eyes to look at him and said indifferently, "If you want to know, I won't ask her."

Xie Youshi was putting down the wine bottle gently. Hearing this, he couldn't help but chuckle and looked at him with deep eyes:

"When you have someone you like, you will know that sometimes, you want to know something about the other person... but you always dare not ask her directly. You will be afraid that she will not tell you the truth, and you will also be afraid that she will not tell you the truth. The truth she told was something she didn’t dare or didn’t want to accept.”

Hearing this, Yu Nanfeng's cold eyes trembled almost imperceptibly. He didn't know what he thought of, but a touch of bitterness flashed in his eyes. He picked up the wine glass and drank the red wine in one gulp.

"Do you have anyone you like?"

At the sudden question, Yu Nanfeng suddenly raised his eyes and met Xie Youshi's smiling but inquiring eyes.

Yu Nanfeng immediately turned cold and said, "It's none of your business."

Catching the flash of displeasure and wariness in his eyes, Xie Youshi quickly smiled and said, "I just mentioned this topic and asked casually."

"If you have someone you like, but you can't quite figure it out, as someone who has been there, maybe I can provide you with some useful information..."

"No need for you to bother me."

Yu Nanfeng interrupted him and warned with a stern face, "Thank you, you'd better stay less involved in my affairs and stop asking around. Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my back on him and not even giving away Yu Zhiyi's face."
