Chapter 65 Part 2 一 Lu Jin Falls Off the Horse While Chasing Star.

On the internet, the second season of <The Heirs> started airing for only half a day, and it ranked first in search volume across all platforms, with the live streaming app reaching a new all-time high in daily activity.

The discussion level on various platforms has directly increased.

Among the six top wealthy families, five heirs from the top wealthy families have participated in this variety show. Looking at the guest lineup, it’s much more impressive than the first season. However, the people from the top wealthy families are slightly more “reserved,” very lively, joking around and fooling around. This allows the audience to understand the status of the wealthy families while also finding it quite amusing.

It’s not only netizens who are enjoying it, but also Ruan Liuyu, Gu Youqian, Father Lu, Mother Lu, Mother Fu, Father Qi, and Mother Qi, who were eagerly waiting before the livestream and found it very interesting.

The relationships among this group of young people are much better than they had imagined.

Ruan Liuyu watched them busily working for money, haggling and bargaining with a ‘bittersweet’ yet amusing feeling. Without getting involved in the financial crisis set up by the production team, Ruan Liuyu and others are eagerly anticipating their performance on the variety show.

Just like the netizens, they were also watching with great enjoyment.

Shortly after, the old butler called Ruan Liuyu and mentioned a small segment in the production process that required the participation of a few members’ parents from the top wealthy families.

Ruan Liuyu, Gu Youqian, and the others listened to the director of the production team explaining it and found it quite interesting. So they instructed the butler to prepare small notes as Director Mu had suggested, writing a sentence on it and give it to Ruan Yōu and the others.

After Ruan Yōu, Gu Fuchen, Jiang Huai, Fu Jiazhan, and Lu Xuan returned from buying groceries, Qi Zhiyan started to cook in a busy and orderly manner.

Qi Nuo and Lu Jin were picking vegetables.

Before the variety show started, Lu Jin spent several days in the kitchen with the help of the Lu family chef. Later, the chef came to the conclusion一”Young Master Lu can’t handle anything that requires cooking, steaming, or any fire. He’s only suited for assisting and chopping small vegetables.”

Lu Jin’s dream of being a chef shattered, and he had to demote himself from a chef to a vegetable cutter.

Ruan Yōu wanted to watch Qi Zhiyan cook and see what she looked like while cooking. Just as she expressed this small wish, it was mercilessly destroyed by Qi Zhiyan.

“The kitchen is off-limits to idle people.”

Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan returned disappointed.

However, this small setback wouldn’t extinguish their desire to observe.

Taking advantage of Qi Zhiyan’s inattention, the two of them sneaked in unnoticed. Just as they were feeling pleased with themselves, a person’s figure appeared in front of them.

Wearing red-soled high heels that were five centimeters high.

Lu Xuan’s smile froze, and after two seconds of panic, she bent down with forced composure, “Wow, the floor in the kitchen is so clean, no need to sweep at all. Sister Yōuyōu, let’s go.”

Ruan Yōu nodded heavily: “Yes!”

Under the expressionless gaze of Qi Zhiyan, the two pretended as if nothing had happened and calmly returned to the living room.

Jiang Huai looked at the two who had returned disheartenedly and laughed, “You guys are bold, knowingly doing something you shouldn’t.”

Lu Xuan flopped onto the sofa, pouting unhappily, “Watching Sister Qi cook is much more interesting than watching financial news.”

Jiang Huai disagreed, “All that’s floating around here is glittering money; you don’t understand the joy of making money.”

Thinking of something, he glanced at Ruan Yōu, who was casually looking at the TV, his tone carrying two parts envy and three parts resentment, “Bodhisattva Sister understand even less.”

一No matter what she does, she can earn money (even more!

Ruan Yōu shifted her gaze away from the financial news, feeling a bit bored.

She was genuinely curious if her cool and aloof older sister had any expression on her face while cooking, even if the frying pan was sizzling; she remained composed, exuding a calm and aloof demeanor that seemed to say, “There’s nothing in this world that can make me lose my composure.”

Fu Jiazhan was reading on the side, and seeing Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan so disheartened, he absentmindedly turned a page in his book and casually reminded, “You guys can watch her livestream.”

Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan: !

That’s right.

Gu Fuchen was looking at the report sent by Song Wen on his tablet. He turned his head and met the hopeful gaze of Ruan Yōu.

Ruan Yōu curved her eyes into a pleasing smile and extended her hands upwards.

Gu Fuchen sighed, exited WeChat, handed the tablet to Ruan Yōu for them to watch the livestream, and went upstairs to find another one.

【The brother from other people’s families is truly reliable. Every time this happens, my brother would only ask if you don’t have legs of your own.】

【There are new ways to educate my little brother. Look at the brother and little brother from other people’s families. One helps with the tablet, the other assists in the kitchen. The former is the heir of the trillion-dollar wealth of Bozhan Group, while the latter is a genius jungler e-sports player. And then there’s you, so mediocre and yet you don’t even understand how to respect your sister. Don’t blame your sister for not giving you opportunities to beg outside in the future.】

【Gu Fuchen has single-handedly raised the national average level of big brothers.】

Ruan Yōu downloaded the livestreaming app, and their livestream room was already featured on the homepage.

Lu Xuan sat beside Ruan Yōu, and the two of them began watching the livestream from the kitchen’s perspective.

The camera was facing Qi Zhiyan’s frosty face.

There are a lot of bullet screens in the livestream room.

One comment said:【Qi Zhiyan didn’t let Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan in just now. She must be taking care of the two cuties and doesn’t want them to smell of cooking fumes!】

Lu Xuan saw this comment and said, “This is definitely overthinking. Sister Qi just doesn’t want us to disturb her.”

Ruan Yōu strongly agreed.

While cooking, Qi Zhiyan’s profile carried a faint gentleness, and she had a touch of liveliness about her, making her very approachable.

Lu Jin felt this “gentleness.” After spending close to an hour harmoniously with Qi Zhiyan in the kitchen today, their relationship had become more familiar. He put the chopped tomatoes into a bowl for Qi Zhiyan and asked, “Are we making tomato egg soup later?”

Qi Zhiyan’s tone was light: “No soup.”

Lu Jin: “Can’t request food?”

Before Qi Zhiyan could speak, Qi Nuo, who had been obediently cutting vegetables, muttered softly, “It’s good enough to feed you, yet you’re being picky.”

Lu Jin: …?

“I heard your complaints.”

Qi Nuo didn’t back down, continued to wash the vegetables while looking down, his voice was soft but firm: “I just wanted you to hear it.”

How else can I express dissatisfaction if you don’t hear it?

“I can’t talk about people behind their backs.” Qi Nuo looked innocent.

Lu Jin: …

I beg you to gossip about me behind my back.

【Hahaha, indeed a real little brother.】

【Both of you are dignified individuals. If you can settle it verbally, don’t resort to physical actions. So, I suggest that you have a fight. (bushi】

Lu Xuan in front of the screen was very excited.

“Start arguing! Start arguing!”

She really wanted to see a scene where Lu Jin would be defeated.

Unfortunately, the imagined scene did not occur.

The two people who had already prepared and washed the vegetables were mercilessly driven out of the kitchen by Qi Zhiyan after being fully utilized.

An hour later, when Ruan Yōu was starving, they finally had their first meal since recording the variety show.

Qi Zhiyan made braised beef with potatoes, braised fish, and black-boned chicken soup, along with tomato scrambled eggs and stir-fried vegetables 一 all home-cooked dishes.

There were meat dishes, vegetables, and soup.

Everyone was hungry and enjoyed the meal.

However, Lu Jin couldn’t forget his desire for the tomato scrambled egg soup. Until he gets to taste it, that desire will continue to linger in his mind.

As they were nearly finished with the meal, Lu Jin casually brought up the topic of dinner.

“It’s three o’clock now. Shall we eat again around seven or eight for dinner?”

Gu Fuchen: “Sure.”

“What would you like to eat tonight?”

Ruan Yōu eagerly raises her hand and says with a bright smile, “I really want to eat boiled prawns~”

After finishing speaking, her gaze inadvertently collided with the cold eyes of Qi Zhiyan. Thinking about the scene she had just witnessed in the livestream about ‘being criticized for requesting food,’ she silently and timidly retracted her hand, clasping her hands together, and with a shy voice, she said, “Of course… I don’t have to eat either.”

It’s already so difficult for 77 to cook, yet she still want to request food.

Big guts!

Qi Zhiyan put down the chopsticks, her voice cold and clear: “Okay.”

Ruan Yōu: !!

Lu Jin: ??

【77, you didn’t answer Lu Jin like this just now!】

【Lu Jin: I don’t deserve to request dishes anymore.】

Seeing Qi Zhiyan so easy to talk to, Lu Xuan clasped her hands together and coquettishly said, “Sister Qi, I want to eat Sweet and Sour Pork, pretty please~~”

Qi Zhiyan replied lightly, “Sure.”

Lu Jin: ???

He looked at his younger sister with burning eyes. He never expected that this approach would work for requesting food?

Qi Zhiyan had a bias towards Ruan Yōu, and Lu Jin was aware of this.

But her attitude towards her own younger sister has always been indifferent. Maybe she’s in a good mood now, willing to agree to anything.

With Lu Xuan’s successful approach in mind, Lu Jin was full of confidence. He smiled and said, “Sister Qi, I want to…”

Before he could say the word “eat,” Qi Zhiyan’s gaze pierced like a knife. Lu Jin shivered, swallowed the dish’s name, and smiled sincerely, his voice incredibly earnest and devoted, “I want to tidy up the dining table and then do the dishes. Would that be alright with you?”

“Alright.”

【Qi Zhiyan, you’re such a double standard! (Good job)】

【The right to choose dishes belongs to Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan, leaving Lu Jin with only a mess.】

【Tonight, Lu Jin might have to reflect under the blanket and come to a conclusion: not to fantasize about things he doesn’t deserve.】

【Lu Jin: Don’t take values so seriously, I just want a bowl of tomato and egg soup!!】
