Two or three hours passed, and Lin Chen had prepared a table full of dishes.
"Master Lin, isn't it supposed to be ten dishes?"
Chen Zhian asked, looking at the table in surprise.
Lin Chen had made twelve dishes for them.
Lin Chen said, "President Chen, the delay was my fault, so I made two extra dishes for you."
"There are takeout boxes in the cabinet. You can pack up what you can't finish."
Old Chen said, "Master Lin, please eat with us. We brought a few bottles of good wine to enjoy together."
Lin Chen shook his head, "Old Chen, I won't eat with you. My wife and daughter are waiting for me at home."
"Enjoy your meal."
Lin Chen quickly left with the food container after speaking.
Chen Zhian said, "Dad, I guess the relationship isn't deep enough yet. Master Lin will only stay and eat together when the relationship is strong enough."
"Yeah."
Old Chen nodded regretfully.
They quickly started eating.
They were stunned when the food entered their mouths.
They thought the leftovers they had eaten before were supreme delicacies, but now, compared to this, the leftovers were far inferior.
This was partly due to the leftovers, and partly because Lin Chen's cooking skills were constantly improving.
"Dad, what do you think?"
Chen Zhian asked.
Old Chen tasted two more dishes, "Exquisite delicacy, it's hard to imagine food can be so delicious. A table of such food for a million is too cheap."
Chen Zhian nodded.
"I used to think a million a table was expensive, but now I realize that a million a table is just Master Lin making friends, or perhaps Master Lin just wants a threshold."
"Now, I only hope this threshold can be higher."
Old Chen said, "Son, should we be able to order another table?"
"Hard to say."
Chen Zhian shook his head, "Three to five tables a month is too few. I'll try my best to order one table if I can. It will definitely be more and more difficult to order in the future."
"Yeah."
Old Chen pondered, "Help the Xu family's business if you can. You can interact more with Xu Guofeng."
Chen Zhian's eyes lit up.
Xu Guofeng only has one daughter, Xu Mengyao. His future belongs to Xu Mengyao. Helping the Xu family, Lin Chen's chances of drawing him should be higher.
"Pour the wine, I'll have a drink."
Chen Xingguo said.
He usually doesn't drink much anymore, but with such good food today, it feels like something is missing without wine.
...
"Beep beep!"
Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao and Lin Xiaoxi had finished eating when the phone rang. It was Xu Guofeng calling. Lin Chen quickly answered the phone, "Dad, what's the matter?"
On the other end of the phone, Xu Guofeng said, "Lin Chen, President Chen Zhian called me. He said he wants to invite me to dinner."
"Our Xu family and the Chen family didn't have much interaction before."
Lin Chen smiled, "President Chen is a good person. If he takes the initiative to invite you to dinner, you should accept his invitation."
Xu Guofeng asked, "President Chen is your connection. Is it appropriate for me to have dinner with President Chen?"
Lin Chen was stunned.
"Dad, we are family, don't worry about these things. I'm not afraid you'll steal this connection from me, am I?"
Xu Guofeng cleared his throat, "I can't steal it, but I still have to say something since the Chen family is your connection. Since you think it's okay, I'll agree to him."
"Dad, you don't have to ask me about this kind of thing in the future. Mengyao and Qianqian will benefit if the Xu Corporation becomes stronger."
"Why would I disagree?"
Lin Chen said.
Xu Guofeng laughed on the other end of the phone, "That's true. But I still have to tell you. Maybe there are some people you don't want to get too close to."
"Is Qianqian asleep?"
Lin Chen looked towards the balcony, "Not yet, she and Mengyao are on the balcony. I'll give the phone to Mengyao so they can talk to you."
Lin Chen quickly gave the phone to Xu Mengyao.
By the time he finished washing the dishes, Xu Mengyao had already hung up the phone, "Husband, my parents miss Qianqian. They said they'll come to see Qianqian this afternoon because she's sick."
Lin Xiaoxi giggled, "Mommy, Grandpa and Grandma must want to eat the dishes Daddy made."
Xu Mengyao: "..."
"Qianqian, don't speak such obvious truths. Husband, I'll have to trouble you again tonight. Is there anything I can help with?"
Lin Chen's eyes rolled, "I was busy for two or three hours this morning, and my back is sore. How about you give me a massage?"
Xu Mengyao glanced at Lin Chen.
A sore back is probably fake. Lin Chen can carry them up Mount Tai. Could making dishes for two or three hours really do that?
He really just wants her to give him a massage!
"Then lie down on the sofa."
"Roger!"
Lin Chen happily lay down on the sofa.
Xu Mengyao started massaging Lin Chen, and Lin Xiaoxi watched for a while and said, "Daddy, I'll help you too."
After she finished speaking, she started pounding Lin Chen with her little fists.
Xu Mengyao massaged his shoulders, and Lin Xiaoxi pounded his waist. Lin Chen lay comfortably, feeling very relaxed.
...
In the afternoon, Xu Guofeng and the others came over.
Lin Xiaoxi was learning math when they arrived.
"Qianqian!"
"Where is Qianqian, my sweetie?"
Xu Mengyao opened the door and Xu Guofeng and the others came in.
"Grandpa, Grandma."
Lin Xiaoxi ran happily towards Xu Guofeng and the others.
"Qianqian, Grandpa will hold you."
"Qianqian, Grandma has strength now, Grandma will hold you."
Yang Qingyue scrambled to pick up Lin Xiaoxi.
"Dad, Mom."
Lin Chen greeted them with a smile.
Lin Xiaoxi said in a childish voice, "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm doing a problem that Daddy gave me, and I don't know how to do one of them."
"Grandpa will teach you."
Xu Guofeng said with a smile.
Lin Chen went to the kitchen to cook, and Xu Guofeng called Xu Mengyao over, "Mengyao, are you sure this is for Qianqian? She's only two years old and doing this?"
Xu Mengyao nodded.
Xu Guofeng looked at the problem again.
He was a little doubtful of life. He actually needed to think carefully to solve the problem Lin Xiaoxi was doing.
"I thought of it."
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoxi's eyes lit up and she started writing.
Lin Chen's calligraphy is legendary level, and Lin Xiaoxi's calligraphy talent is not bad. She can write not very complicated Chinese characters, and there is no problem writing numbers.
After Lin Xiaoxi finished writing, Xu Guofeng also calculated the answer. He was surprised to find that Lin Xiaoxi's calculation was correct.
"Mengyao, what's going on?"
Xu Guofeng looked at Xu Mengyao beside him.
Xu Mengyao: "Husband said Qianqian has a strong talent for math, so he keeps teaching Qianqian to explore her math talent."
"Lin Chen has a strong talent for math, Qianqian should have inherited it."
Xu Guofeng said in surprise, "Lin Chen is good at math?"
They knew Lin Chen was good at calligraphy, painting, fairy tale creation, and cooking, but they didn't know Lin Chen was good at math.
Xu Mengyao said, "He's pretty good at math, but I haven't asked him how good he is, so I'm not very clear."
An hour later, Lin Chen had prepared the meal.
After a few rounds of drinks.
Xu Guofeng asked curiously, "Lin Chen, Qianqian is very good at math, what level is your math now?"
Lin Chen smiled, "I'm not sure exactly, but I estimate I should be able to reach the global top."
