Chapter 370: Chapter 362:

After Lin Chengdong finished his meal, he felt that it was still not enough.

Now he understood why these respectable older people fought for the food.

The dishes were simply delicious.

Someone who had tasted gourmet food all over the world, came to realize that all those so-called delicacies he had before were nothing in front of these dishes.

Lin Chengdong sincerely praised, “Mrs. Xiao…”

Xiao’s mother laughed and said, “Mr. Lin, my name is Ji Fangqin, everyone calls me Xiaofang. How old are you? I am fifty-three today.”

Fifty-three?

Lin Chengdong opened his mouth wide, utterly incredulous.

At first glance, he thought she was a woman in her early thirties, but knowing that she was the mother of Xiao Junxuan, she must be much older than that, even if someone has children late, they should be in their forties, right?

Who would have thought, Xiao Junxuan’s mother was actually fifty-three.

If it weren’t for the noticeable resemblance between Xiao Junxuan and his mother, he might have mistaken her for Xiao Junxuan’s stepmother.

What mattered most was, such a beautiful and charming woman was so diligent and capable. What a wonder she was.

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at her father’s stunned face, her cheeks turning a little red. She gently tugged at her father’s sleeve, then smiled and said to Xiao’s mother, “Auntie, my dad is fifty-six this year!”

No wonder her father was dumbstruck by his future mother-in-law.

The main reason was that the future mother-in-law was so beautiful, no wonder she gave birth to a little fairy like Xiao Jinli.

Xiao’s mother laughed and said, “Then I seem older, let’s call each other brothers. Brother, if you don’t mind, you can call me sister.”

The two kids weren’t married yet, nor were their engagement settled, so calling each other in-laws wasn’t appropriate yet.

Lin Chengdong laughed and said, “I’ll just call you sister.”

Then he praised, “Sister, your cooking skills are so good that you could outshine those so-called five-star chefs in a five-star hotel.”

As he said this, he gave a thumbs-up.

Xiao’s mother laughed and said, “I only know how to make some ordinary home-cooked dishes, how can I compare to those chefs? If big brother likes my cooking, you’re welcome to come over anytime.”

Lin Chengdong found it hard to refuse.

He nodded and said, “Okay.”

Now he finally understood why these dignified old gentlemen were fighting for the food for lunch like they were in a battle.

At this moment, Xiao’s mother said, “Brother, the children’s father will be back in the afternoon. Let’s sit down and chat together in the evening.”

Lin Chengdong didn’t refuse, he nodded and replied, “Okay!”

He was very curious to see what kind of man could marry such a beautiful, virtuous, and capable woman, and raise such outstanding children.

As for his daughter Lin Xiaoxiao getting married to the Xiao family, he had no objections now.

Before, he thought Su Yichen was the first choice, not just because he was the wealthiest young man, but also because his family had no messy relatives. Well, there were, but he could keep them in check and protect his wife well.

But having seen the people of the Xiao family and the warmth and happiness they have, he thought to himself, “It must be happiness for my daughter to marry into such a family.”

If she married Su Yichen, although there would be no in-laws or siblings to interfere, Su Yichen would be busy at work, leaving her alone at home, which would be cold and devoid of any happiness.

After having his lunch, Lin Chengdong returned to the hotel to rest.

He had rushed here from the Capital City and was looking for Xiaoxiao non-stop. Before he was certain about his daughter’s condition, he couldn’t rest well.
