Chapter 1514: Uncle, You're Here!

“No need! I’ll go back and tidy up today, tomorrow I’ll invite you to my place for dinner.” Huo Chengying has troubled Lu Tingshen for a while, so she understands these social niceties.

Sorting out these things, she can do it herself.

“Are you going to cook for me?” Lu Tingshen doesn’t believe Huo Chengying can cook.

“Of course not, we can order delivery. I only know how to make instant noodles, do you want some?” Huo Chengying herself doesn’t like eating instant noodles.

“Is that what you call inviting me to your place for dinner? Isn’t that a bit insincere?” Lu Tingshen knows that a pampered girl like her couldn’t possibly cook.

“No way! Cooking personally for you is the insincere part. I could watch cooking tutorials to learn, but would you dare eat it? Uncle, those tutorials don’t work for me. They look simple, but practicing is quite difficult. I found out the first time I cooked instant noodles.”

Lu Tingshen couldn’t really argue with Huo Chengying’s point.

Her hands are meant for playing piano, if she really started cooking, it would be a waste of talent.

Lu Tingshen decided to tease her, “If you really dare to cook, I’ll dare to eat it.”

“I don’t dare.” Huo Chengying admitted outright.

She doesn’t dare to hold a kitchen knife; if she accidentally cuts her hand, she’d be the one in pain.

“Alright! You always have a reason.” Lu Tingshen ruffled her hair.

Huo Chengying didn’t mind, and waved to him, “Uncle, I’m off now, make sure to come by tomorrow!”

“Mhm.” Lu Tingshen nodded.

Once Huo Chengying left, Lu Tingshen initially didn’t think much of it.

But when it was time to cook dinner in the evening, he realized he didn’t need to make so many dishes.

Little Crystal had already moved out.

He chuckled to himself, took out the ingredients, and decided to just make something simple!

In the evening, when he sat on the sofa preparing to read, he remembered he no longer needed to sit there specifically to accompany Little Crystal.

On the coffee table were fruits that Huo Chengying liked to eat.

This apartment even had many things that weren’t bought by him.

On the balcony, there was a hanging chair, and a storage shelf.

On it were many pots of succulents.

There were also two pots of money plants.

Little Crystal seemed to like succulents, she planted those in her free time.

On his wall, there was a painting, also brought by her to hang up.

Lu Tingshen thought, luckily Huo Chengying had already moved out, otherwise, he’d have gotten used to it.

—

The next morning, Huo Chengying sent Lu Tingshen a WeChat message.

[Uncle, you can come over now! I’ve already tidied up my place.]

Lu Tingshen had just finished breakfast, so he headed out directly.

It wouldn’t be right to go empty-handed, but what to buy?

After some deliberation, he finally bought a set of dinnerware.

Something that matched Huo Chengying’s aesthetic.

After all, he thought, Huo Chengying surely doesn’t lack anything in her home.

It feels redundant to buy anything else.

Besides the dinnerware set, Lu Tingshen also bought a box of cherries and strawberries.

Then, he went to Huo Chengying’s place.

“Uncle, you’re here!” When the doorbell rang, Huo Chengying knew it was Lu Tingshen.

“Congratulations on your new home.” Lu Tingshen went in and placed the items on the table.

He began to look around the place.

The white piano in the living room was striking, next to it, there was also a cello.
