The old man quickly chased after him and said, “And don’t be so timid in front of your wife! Just look at how timid you are now, you even let women walk all over you! If you keep this up, don’t you ever tell anyone that you’re my son, I can’t afford to lose face!”

Gu Ye rolled his eyes again and said, “I’m just being considerate to my wife. Fine, I won’t say anything, as if I’m proud to be your son anyway!” 

The old man choked on his words, wanting to scold him, but felt a bit guilty and changed his tone. 

“Fine, be considerate, but you still need to stand your ground at home! You can’t just let her call all the shots… Hey! Why are you speeding up? I’m still talking to you!” 

But Gu Ye was already speeding away, leaving his father in the dust. 

The old man pedaled after him with his might, after all he was still hoping to have free lunch at his place.  

Later that morning, Chu Qiao was at home, studying the kidney-tonifying herbal formula, but she couldn’t focus, she was still worried about the old man’s health. 

After reading for a while, her mind was still in a mess and she was too lazy to study. So she prepared to make lunch. 

Gu Ye would come home for lunch, Dabao and Xiaobao ate at school. 

Chu Qiao planned to make chili oil noodles, Gu Ye’s favorite. 

-Chili oil noodles 

She scooped some flour into a basin, kneaded the dough, and left it to rest. 

Then she sat down to watch the TV, but the current programs were very monotonous and there wasn’t much to watch during the day. 

At almost 11 o’clock, Gu Ye came home, and behind him was the old man. 

Chu Qiao was momentarily stunned, then she quickly greeted, “Dad.” 

“Mm.” 

The old man responded with dignity, walked a few steps, then turned back and said, “The dumplings were not bad.” 

Although he was a little dissatisfied that Chu Qiao kept Gu Ye so submissive, he still sincerely praised the spring onion and pork dumplings from the morning, one thing at a time. He wasn’t an unreasonable father-in-law.

“You wolfed them down like a starving man, even licked the chili sauce so clean! Was one compliment too much to ask?” Gu Ye complained. 

Gu Ye was not happy anymore, his wife’s dumplings were so delicious, and his father just said ‘not bad’? 

“That’s because I was hungry.” 

The old man felt a little embarrassed, and glared at him fiercely. 

This brat just loved undermining him, he really needed a good scolding.

Gu Ye was about to retort with a few more words, but Chu Qiao stopped him. 

She was already happy that the old man gave her a “not bad.”

“There are still dumplings in the fridge. Do you want some more, Dad?” Chu Qiao asked with a smile.

Just as the old man was about to agree, he noticed the dough resting in the basin and immediately asked, “What are you making?”

“I just wanted to make chili oil noodles. Gu Ye likes to eat them,” she answered honestly. 

She saw the old man’s eyes shining brightly and said with dignity, “I also eat noodles, add more chili.” 

Ever since moving to Shanghai, the old man had yet to find proper chili oil noodles. 

The chili wasn’t right, the noodles weren’t right. 

The older he got, the more he craved those familiar flavors, but they were hard to come by. 

Gu Ye whispered in Chu Qiao’s ear, “He’s just greedy, shamelessly following me home for food. You can give him a whole big plate.”

Chu Qiao chuckled. 

Having a good appetite meant good health, it seemed that the old man was fine. 

“Okay, I will make more dough.” 

Chu Qiao readily agreed. 

Making noodles was easy for her, she had spent plenty of time perfecting the skill and her current skills were not inferior to those of northerners. 

Calling Gu Ye out of the room, Chu Qiao asked in a low voice, “Is everything okay at the hospital?” 

Gu Ye’s face suddenly changed and he snorted awkwardly, “It’s okay, his body is even stronger than a cow.” 

Chu Qiao finally felt completely at ease and smiled, “I said that he would be okay, your dad will definitely live to be a hundred years old!” 

“It’s our dad.” Gu Ye corrected, feeling somewhat dissatisfied with Chu Qiao’s current division between you and me. 

“Yes, our dad, got it.” 

Chu Qiao adjusted her words as she continued kneading the dough. 

But seeing that Gu Ye’s expression was not right, as if someone owed him money, Chu Qiao asked with concern, “Why are you so unhappy?”
