NOVEL WEB Chapter 676: I Want You
Chapter 676: I Want You
Bai Ling's expression turned sour as he asked, "Why is there so much?" There was an abnormal amount of food on the table. And it seemed they might need another to hold it all. It was too much for 6 people to finish.
"..." "..." Lu Xiaotong and Lu Aotian said nothing. But the two knew who was the culprit. Bai Xiaoqing laughed as she explained, "Father, it's because brother Lu could finish it all."
"You can?" Bai Ling stared at Lu Chen.
"Kid, you're a glutton." Bai Geming retorted as he looked at Lu Chen. But the latter shrugged his shoulders, "I need to eat a lot because my metabolism is high."
Bai Geming shook his head, "Even if it's high, that doesn't mean you won't get fat if you eat too much."
"I beat a lot of idiots up. So I'm burning it up." Lu Chen gave Bai Geming a side glance as he said this.
You ain't going to let that go, huh. Bai Geming chuckled. That was a slight at Liao Yan.
No. There was no way he was going to let it go.
While Lu Chen and Bai Geming were talking with their eyes, a thought came into Bai Ling's mind, "Brother Lu?" There was a weird name coming out of her daughter's mouth.
"Yes. I think it sounds nice." Bai Xiaoqing smiled.
Don't look at me. Lu Chen sipped on his tea as everyone turned their heads at Lu Chen. But the man ignored it. Bai Geming sighed, "Since we have done everything for the
Most part? Lu Chen frowned when he heard that. But he didn't say anything as he started to eat. As he ate, Bai Ling and Bai Geming understood everything now.
How could someone eat so much? There was something very wrong with this. Lu Chen was eating at a quick pace without a thought about it. Lu Xiaotong and Lu Aotian looked at Lu Chen in embarrassment.
Son, can you not do that in front of everybody?!
Little Brother, stop pigging out!
They knew the answer was no. But the upside, Lu Chen was eating elegantly...somehow. He was elegant and ate so fast that it didn't look sloppy.
While Lu Chen ate, "Here, you might choke if you don't drink." Bai Xiaoqing poured some tea for him to drink. Lu CHen drank the tea.
"Thanks." And he noticed something strange, "Why aren't you eating?"
"I'm not that hungry." Bai Xiaoqing shook her head.
"Hmm?" Then why did you follow me out? Bai Xiaoqing added,
"I'm fat, and I need to go on a diet." But Lu Chen retorted,
"If you're calling yourself fat, then every other girl is fat." There was no way Bai Xiaoqing was fat. She was more than fit. He didn't understand why girls like Song Yanmei and Bai Xiaoqing thought of themselves like that.
"You're only saying that." Bai Xiaoqing looked away.
"I'm not. You look really beautiful. But I think you need a bit more on your arms." Lu Chen grabbed her hand, "See, pretty bony." He didn't hesitate as he placed an egg tart onto Bai Geming's plate.
"Try it." "...Alright." Bai Xiaoqing nodded and took a bite out of it. Her face brightened,
"is it good?"
"Mmhmm."
Lu Chen smiled, "Then try these as well." He placed a couple of more onto her plate. Bai Xiaoqing shook her head,
"I can't eat this much."
"If you can't, I'll finish it for you." Lu Chen added.
"...You know what you're implying?"
"Huh?" Lu Chen tilted his head, "What do you mean?" He was only going to eat the ones she couldn't finish.
"Ahem!" As Bai Xiaoqing was going to explain, a cold cough caught the two. The two turned to look at Bai Geming,
"You two need to stop flirting."
"How is this flirting?" Lu Chen was confused.
"..." Bai Geming grabbed his head and turned to Lu Xiaotong, "Your son is going to get into big trouble one day." He could see it now.
"...I know." Lu Xiaotong grabbed his head. Lu Chen tilted his head, confused.
"What did I do wrong?"
"Nothing, just eat your food." Bai Geming glanced at Lu Chen.
...
"...You actually finished it all." Bai Ling said with surprise when he saw all the finished plates on the table. Lu Chen nodded,
"Mmhmm. And I could go for dessert." Lu Chen thought as he turned to Bai Xiaoqing, "Want to get some coconut pudding?"
"Maybe later." This time, Bai Xiaoqing was full. Lu Chen kept putting food on her plate.
"Alright."
"Kid." Bai Geming placed his tea down and looked at him, "We need to talk about something."
"Oh, you mean the finalization of the contract, right?"
"It's the- How did you know?" Lu Chen took the words right out of Bai Geming's mouth.
"You said for the most part. That means you haven't finalized it." Lu Chen explained.
"..." Bai Geming turned to Lu Xiaotong, "Alright, how does he pick on cues like this. But he can't pick up cues on him picking up girls?"
"..."
Lu Xiaotong shook his head, "I'm sorry, Elder Bai. Even I have no clue why my son is like this either."
"....Get to the point." Lu Chen's expression was black. These two were trying to piss him off.
"Anyways, you're right. The contract isn't finalized. We have gotten down to everything. But I'm the one who had to put my word in." Bai Geming was still the head of the family.
What he said would go.
"Hmm? What do you need, Elder Bai?" Lu Chen asked.
"I want you to be the one in charge of the joint project."
"Hah?!"
