Chapter 1794: Chapter 1794: You Really Know How to Rain on Their Parade

Lu Yichen, who had just entered the main gate, happened to hear Luo Chen’s words, and the corners of his mouth turned up as he thought: At least you’ve got the right idea, kid.

He walked up behind Luo Qiao: "Why are you so happy?"

Luo Qiao leaned back, ending up in Lu Yichen’s embrace: "Luo Chen and Jun Rui are here pledging to learn your culinary skills. Do you have anything to say?"

Luo Chen and Qi Junrui both looked over at the entrance at Lu Yichen: "It depends on actual action, not just words. Ultimately, it’s the results that matter."

Both of them laughed at this, realizing that their place was secure, and it seemed like they really needed to start honing their cooking skills.

Qi Junrui was the first to make a statement: "Okay, let’s start by choosing the ingredients. Whenever we come back here, we’ll take over the crucial kitchen tasks as assistants. Over time, we’ll learn a thing or two from Grandma Rong’s skills."

Luo Chen chimed in with a laugh: "Even if we don’t learn a thing or two, it would be nice to master a few signature dishes."

Yanyan chimed in critically: "That depends on whether you have any talent. If you spend all this time and still end up a kitchen disaster, then learning for a lifetime won’t help."

Luo Qiao burst into laughter: "Already getting discouraged before you have even started? You really know how to rain on a parade."

Yanyan pouted: "I’m just worried they’ll aim too high and miss, and if they don’t have the talent after trying for so long, they won’t be able to handle it. I’m just giving them a heads-up."

Luo Chen, hearing this, didn’t know how to respond. What if he made promises only to realize he lacked the talent? What would he do then?

Qi Junrui also didn’t dare to make big claims because he really hadn’t done anything like this before.

Yueyue watched Luo Chen and Qi Junrui’s confused faces and burst out laughing: "Look how scared you’ve gotten them!"

Rong Daniang also laughed: "Having the desire to learn is enough; results don’t matter. Besides, we’re not relying on cooking skills to make a living. Don’t overthink it."

Luo Chen and Qi Junrui exchanged a glance and also laughed.

Qi Junrui rubbed the back of his head, laughing: "I’ll try to learn well. I’d love to make a full table of dishes for my family myself."

Luo Qiao, looking at their expressions, amusingly said: "Alright, don’t listen to them. If you want to learn, just learn. It’s not a mandatory task."

Luo Chen smiled at his acknowledged future father-in-law and mother-in-law near the door: "You’ve also been busy all day, so go take a rest. We’ll finish up here soon."

Luo Qiao nodded with a smile, then left with Lu Yichen, who also wore a smile at the corner of his mouth.

After all, this is how they usually are, and there’s no need to avoid it just because Luo Chen and Qi Junrui are around. On the contrary, she hopes this will also become the way the kids interact in the future.

Before dinner, three dirty boys who played basketball came back.

Luo Qiao looked at the three of them, somewhat disgusted: "Hurry up and take a shower and change clothes. How did you become dirt-streaked just from playing basketball?"

Xiao Ye replied with a smile: "We’ll report back to you after we clean up."

The three of them joked and shoved each other into the backyard.

When the three reappeared, Luo Qiao didn’t wait for them to speak and said: "Your sister and the others helped with cooking, shouldn’t you go carry out the dishes."

Xiao Rui nodded at his two younger brothers, and the three headed to the kitchen.

Xiao Ye stepped into the kitchen first: "Hello, Brother Luo Chen, Brother Jun Rui. We’re here to carry out the dishes."

Luo Chen pointed with a smile at the stir-fried zucchini: "Xiao Ye, this is a dish guided by Grandma Rong. Try it later and give some valuable feedback."

Then he pointed at the stir-fried mushrooms and bok choy beside it: "This is your Brother Jun Rui’s debut dish. Give it a try later too."

Xiao Ye was baffled: "What’s going on here? Are you planning to switch careers to become chefs?"
