The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend-Chapter 86 - 0 Basking in Your Glory
Chapter 86: Chapter 086 Basking in Your Glory
Qi Yue coughed lightly upon hearing the words, “Master, you’re flattering me too much. I’m honestly just telling the truth. As for meeting the in-laws and whether I’ll be nervous when the time comes, I don’t know; after all, I’ve never met them…”
Gu Huai nodded slightly and spoke calmly, “It’s alright, consider it a practice run, practice makes perfect.”
Qi Yue: “…”
The Master has started showing off his unique command of idioms again…
After changing her shoes, Qi Yue entered the house, handing the bouquet and fruit to Madam Shen, “Madam Shen, I wasn’t sure what you and Professor Shen like, so I bought a bouquet and some fruit…”
“Oh my, there was no need to bring anything, you’re too polite. You’re Ah Huai’s friend, which makes you family, no need to be so formal!” Madam Shen said warmly and kindly.
...
Qi Yue felt a bit sheepish because of Madam Shen’s enthusiasm and politely said, “One must adhere to social niceties. I heard from Gu Huai that you like tulips, so I bought a bouquet of them…”
Madam Shen arranged the petals, looking very pleased: “Thank you for your thoughtfulness, I really like them!”
“As long as you like them,” Qi Yue sighed in relief and said, while sneakily glancing inside the house.
She didn’t seem to see Professor Shen around?
However, there seemed to be the sound of cooking coming from the direction of the kitchen…
Could there be someone else at home?
As Madam Shen carefully placed the flowers into a vase, she said, “Qi Yue, you and Ah Huai go ahead and take a seat. Professor Shen is in the kitchen cooking, it will be ready soon!”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue’s jaw almost dropped in surprise, she turned stiffly with wide eyes to look at Gu Huai, “Ma… Master… Professor Shen is cooking himself?”
Gu Huai glanced at the girl, “What about it?”
Qi Yue’s face was a picture of shock as she used the words Gu Huai had just said to her not long ago, “Isn’t… Isn’t this a bit too grand?”
Gu Huai had called her grand, but who was really being grand here!
Professor Shen was personally cooking a meal for her, ahhhh!

Gu Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, “Too grand?”
Qi Yue incredulously, “Isn’t it grand?”
Heavens! Her idol was personally cooking for her; she wouldn’t even dare to dream of it!
Was this a dream she could have without paying for it?
Qi Yue’s eyes sparkled as she stared at Gu Huai, “Thanks to the Master! I’m really basking in your glory!!!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Huai let out a light laugh, glancing at the girl with a half-smile, “Basking in my glory? President Qi might have it the other way around.”
Qi Yue was taken aback, “Ah…? What do you mean?”
Gu Huai spoke softly, “It’s me who’s basking in your glory.”
At this moment, Madam Shen, with a smile, chimed in, “Ah Huai is right to say that. Old Shen is usually very busy, and it’s rare for him to have time. Hearing that Gu Huai was bringing a friend over, he specifically finished his work early to come back and insisted on cooking himself as a treat.”
Qi Yue: “…!!!”
She truly was, overwhelmed by the honor!
With a look of astonished doubt on her face, Qi Yue turned to Gu Huai and after hesitating for a long time, asked in a whisper, “Master, just… what exactly did you tell Professor Shen…”
Gu Huai, with an usual expression, said, “I didn’t say much, just that I was bringing a friend over.”
“Is that so?” Qi Yue had a head full of question marks and murmured, “Is Professor Shen always this enthusiastic when entertaining your friends?”
Gu Huai seemed to recall and ponder for a moment before replying, “When it comes to guys, Jiang Lang and Ling Feng have been here; my uncle ordered us takeout. As for the girls, I’m not sure, since it’s the first time bringing a girl home.”
