My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection

Chapter 306 - 286: Nie Cenjin is the only one_2

So, he never worried about these things before, not to mention he’s now married to Cen Jin, so freeloading meals is all legit and doesn’t require any excuses."You’re certainly thinking ahead, but yeah, my aunt and uncle are coming back on the 30th, so we won’t lack meals." Cen Jin gave him a playful look and laughed, "By the way, how many meals did you freeload at my house when you were a kid? Do you remember?"

"I don’t remember, but it was quite a lot anyway."

"Why do I sense a hint of shameless pride in your tone?"

"It’s only right to eat at your mother-in-law’s house with confidence."

"Tsk tsk, aren’t you proud of yourself?"

The two of them chatted and laughed all the way back to Jiang Baizhou’s house. Seeing nobody downstairs, they exchanged a glance, assuming everyone was still upstairs. After thinking for a moment, Cen Jin suggested, "You go call mom and dad down for dinner, I’ll take these things to the kitchen."

"Okay."

Jiang Baizhou placed the packed food on the table and turned to go upstairs. Just as he was about to take the last two steps, he froze, watching as Jiang Yuyang was holding Yu Hui’s hand, coming out of the bedroom, seeming reconciled.

Jiang Baizhou looked at them in disbelief. As their son for over twenty years, it was rare to see them holding hands and looking so sweet.

"See, I told you Bai Zhou and the others would be back! You didn’t believe me. Come on, let’s go eat your favorite three-cup chicken and braised ribs." Jiang Yuyang glanced at his son, and on the way down the stairs, he still held onto Yu Hui’s hand without letting go, walking past Jiang, and even complaining that he was in the way, "Why are you standing here? Can’t you see your mom and I are coming down?"

Jiang Baizhou was speechless, instinctively stepping aside to make way for them, feeling inexplicably bittersweet, thinking he must be really lucky to have grown up this well on his own!

"Ah, mom... dad, you’re down..." Cen Jin heard footsteps, turned around, and saw the old couple holding hands in the dining room. She was momentarily stunned and then saw Jiang Yuyang kindly pulling out a chair for Miss Yu Hui.

"Oh, Cen Jin, thank you for your hard work. Would you like to sit down and eat a bit?" Compared to how she treated her son, Miss Yu Hui’s attitude towards her daughter-in-law had changed dramatically, she smiled and waved.

After putting everything away, Cen Jin came out of the kitchen smiling and shook her head, "No, we’ve already eaten, you and dad go ahead. I just went to the supermarket and bought some fruits, you and dad can have some, we’re here today but haven’t greeted my mom yet!"

"Alright, then go quickly!" Miss Yu Hui nodded as she sat down, "Are you going back to your new place tonight or staying here?"

"We’re going to say hi and then we’ll head back. You and dad enjoy your time together, we’ll be back on the 30th." Cen Jin waved at them with a smile and, seeing Jiang Baizhou coming downstairs, quickly ran to him and took his arm, "We’ll be off then!"

"Come back early on the 30th, isn’t that when your aunt and uncle are arriving?"

"Yes."

"Good, then go quickly!"

After pulling Jiang Baizhou out of the villa, Cen Jin gave him a gentle shove with a laugh, "It’s only been what, half an hour since we left? And dad already managed to cheer mom up, did you see that? They were holding hands! Very efficient."

As soon as Cen Jin finished speaking, Jiang Baizhou also clasped her hand, raised it slightly, and raised an eyebrow, "Hmm, we’re holding hands too. I told you before, don’t worry about it, the mess my dad got himself into, he would clean it up himself. He’s not the type to make himself suffer. If it were before, he could go back to Bo Academy, but now that Bo Academy is on vacation, if my mom were mad, he’d have to cook for himself, do his own laundry, and sleep in the study. It’s a losing deal he wouldn’t make."

"Wow, now I finally know who you inherited your sneakiness and cunning from."

"Hmm, thanks for the compliment. Don’t worry, this is a Jiang family trait, passed down to sons only, and will continue for generations."

"Pfft, get out of here! I don’t want my son to end up like you, otherwise, my future daughter-in-law would suffer so much!"

Jiang Baizhou suddenly stopped his steps, pulled her closer, and arched his eyebrows, "Are you suffering?"

"No!" Cen Jin looked at him blankly, and seeing him squint his eyes, she suddenly realized her words had been misunderstood and laughed, "I mean, what ordinary girl can handle your introverted and aloof nature? If our son turns out like you, I’d really worry he’d be single forever! After all, someone like me can’t be found even with a lantern."
