The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 877 - 297: Two Words to Describe Lu Jingchen—Childish
Not far away, there was a four-sided table at the BBQ street stall. It wasn’t very big, but not too small either. Four people sat one on each side, and quite a lot of grilled food had already been placed on the tabletop.
There were chicken wings, grilled beef, grilled corn, grilled ribs, grilled eggplant... With so many varieties, they had almost ordered everything from the barbecue menu for five people, and the table was hardly big enough to hold everything. Some plates were even stacked together.
Lu Yulin sat opposite Song Qiao, while beside him were Chu Munan and Mu Shinian. He originally wanted to sit on the side where Chu Munan was, aiming to separate Chu Munan from his second aunt, but when he returned after ordering, they had already seated themselves.
Only later did he realize what Chu Munan meant by casually telling him to order while he covered the bill.
Feeling annoyed, he ended up ordering everything from the BBQ stall’s menu, which made the boss look at him as if he were seeing God.
Lu Yulin was somewhat puzzled. He had glanced at the menu earlier, and the prices weren’t expensive. Everything was just a few bucks per skewer, the most costly item being the fish, which was less than twenty bucks. The table full of food amounted to just two or three hundred.
He really couldn’t understand why the boss looked at him with such a delighted expression, as if he’d seen a deity.
Having grown up in the Lu Family, as the little master of the Lu Family, everyone in the family treated him like a little ancestor, living a life where everything was handed to him on a silver spoon. How could he possibly understand the lives of those at the lowest rungs?
Especially those like the street vendors who rely on their stalls for a living. Their income is extremely unstable, sometimes earning a few hundred a day, sometimes nothing at all.
So when Lu Yulin ordered such a large table of food, of course the boss was overjoyed.
Chewing on his third skewer of grilled fruits and vegetables, Lu Yulin found the taste surprisingly good, his initial low expectations overturned after realizing the quality wasn’t worse than that of a restaurant. The difference mainly lies in the hygienic environment.
Chu Munan was smiling as he recounted amusing anecdotes from his university days to Song Qiao, who enjoyed the stories while eating BBQ, occasionally bursting into laughter.
Lu Yulin, after finishing the skewer in his hand, frustratedly poked at the meat in his bowl, watching Chu Munan and his second aunt with great displeasure, unable to fathom whether his aunt didn’t notice this man’s ulterior motives?
Or perhaps she noticed and liked this man too, wanting to be with him, eventually ditching his second uncle?
After all, he had attended his uncle and aunt’s wedding just over a week ago as the elder nephew, and witnessed everything happening there, including Murong Rui’s annoying remarks.
No matter if those incidents were true or not, he still disliked Murong Rui and liked his aunt.
His aunt was beautiful, had a good temper, treated him well, and was, most importantly, Mu Shinian’s cousin, so... he liked his aunt.
But seeing his aunt getting along so well with Chu Munan now, it’s hard not to let his mind wander.
Thinking about this, Lu Yulin suddenly shivered, his gaze landing on Song Qiao and Chu Munan with a strange look.
Hopefully... he’s just overthinking.
Just as he was about to continue eating his grilled meat skewers, while still watching Chu Munan, he caught sight of someone walking towards them in the corner of his eye, causing Lu Yulin to momentarily panic and then rejoice as he suddenly stood up, expression full of excitement.
His dramatic action drew everyone’s attention to him, and Song Qiao, slightly stunned, instinctively asked, "Yulin, what’s wrong?"
Lu Yulin glanced at Song Qiao, then at the man slowly approaching them, and exclaimed joyfully, "Second Aunt, it’s Second Uncle!"
Song Qiao naturally knew who Lu Yulin referred to as Second Uncle, and even Mu Shinian looked up at the person behind her and politely called out, "Brother-in-law."
