Chapter 146: CH 43.3

Mother He was a lady with gentle features and someone who would deliberately talk slower and softer in front of youngsters to make them feel more comfortable. Within a few exchanges, she had already earned the heart of Shang Jing and scaled to the top of his list as one of his most loved female elders.

Moreover, as the cooking process gained traction, with Mother Cen giving out step-by-step cooking instructions on cooking and Mother He, Shang Jing and Xiao Zhuang learning on the side and assisting when required, there was no opportunity for Shang Jing to feel nervous.

After all, it was easier to foster closer relationships through shared experiences.

Two hours flew past in the blink of an eye. By 11.30AM, Zhuang Qin and Shang Jing were already out of the kitchen arranging a fruit platter and mixing condiments.

Shang Jing was previously taught some aspects of it at Aunt He’s house, and also had a hand in arranging food after watching the video on transforming Shaxian street food into Michelin three stars cuisine, so these tasks were nothing out of his level of capability.

After they were done, the two men sat down on a chair to rest.

Zhuang Qin whispered, “I feel so nervous!”

Shang Jing: “Auntie Chen is so skilled! No wonder Cen Feinuo can cook so well.”

Zhuang Qin: “Their ancestor seem to be a royal cook in the palace so everyone in their household is well-versed in cooking.”

He was previously worried about being scorned upon for being a kitchen idiot but Cen Feinuo had assured him that it was no necessary to have so many cooks in the family.

Zhuang Qin took out his phone to take a photo of the decorated dining table as momento and sent it to his mother. After all, this was He Jiang’s house and something similar might not happen again.

Shang Jing looked at the photo. Thinking it had captured the atmosphere well, he requested, “Can you send a copy of that photo to me too?”

Soon, his phone vibrated and a few notifications appeared.

Photo. Photo. Photo.

Just before he clicked on the notification to open the photo, he noticed the origin of the message. In a low voice, he questioned, “Why did you send it to the Coy Wives group chat?!”

Help! Did anyone get captured in that photo?

“What?” A chill ran down Zhuang Qin’s spine. Memories of the day his side account got exposed surfaced in his mind. With haste, he opened his hand and recalled his messages. “I meant to send the photo to my mother…”

“Wait, something’s not right…”

He was not logged into his side account so how could he send it to the wrong group?

At the same time, Shang Jing had opened the group chat message. The photo sitting there was, as expected, familiar to him. It was the garlic-infused lobster, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall… they made today…

But the problem was, the photo was sent by ‘Yang Yue’s fiance’!

What was even scarier was that the lobster and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall were still in the pot!

And the only people in the kitchen right now were the two elders.

So the question was, who took the photo?

Shang Jing and Zhuang Qin looked at each other helplessly. In that instance, it was as though they had been transported to an endless horror-themed escape room and all they could do was to huddle together for warmth.

The phone vibrated again.

Shang Jing and Zhuang Qin looked down at it at the same time.

Yang Yue’s fiance: 【Sisters, it’s time for lunch! Men are just other worldly possessions. Let’s treat ourselves well by eating and drinking well.】

Yang Yue’s fiance: 【He Jiang’s wife, Cen Feinuo’s secret girlfriend.】

Shang Jing: “...”

Zhuang Qin: “...”

Slowly, very slowly, Zhuang Qin logged into his side account, and there they were, those few messages, no more, no less.

Without a second to lose, the two young men rushed towards Shang Jing’s room at the speed of light and locked the door.

Shang Jing held his breath and licked his lips. “Who… do you think she is?”

He remembered Mother He saying she was once the president of He Jiang’s fan club and was well-versed in everything related to the entertainment scene.

His face paled. In his mind, he was already 60% sure ‘Yang Yue’s fiance’ was Mother He.

But no matter who it was, it was horrifying! How could they fantisize about He Jiang and Cen Feinuo in front of their mother?!

What if… What if they were found out. Would she whip out a five million yuan cheque and order them to leave her son?

Zhuang Qin could remember the time when the chat was still fairly active and how ‘Yang Yue’s fiance’ would often remind them to disregard men and be themselves.

He closed his eyes. What if she turned our to be Mother Cen… Help, this was even scarier than being caught by Cen Feinuo red-handed!

Shang Jing pushed the phone towards Zhuang Qin. “Say something.”

“What… What should I say?”

“Why… Why don’t we just delete the group chat?”

Zhuang Qin pushed the phone back to Shang Jing. In a moment of plastic friendship, he suggested, “ You were the one who started the group chat, it would only be fitting if you’re the one to end it.”

“I don’t have the courage.”

“Neither do I.”

[Translator’s Notes: I apologize if there’s a confusion regarding the names. Auntie Chen is Mother Cen, they are one and the same. Chen is her maiden surname and Cen is the family name of the family she married into.]
