Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: It’s Nothing That Impressive

"At that time, she not only had our family to care for but also her husband’s family and her own family. There’s just one of her, divided into three parts, and she still has to work, so that’s four. How busy must she be?"

"Regardless of what others do, as parents, shouldn’t we be the first to understand her? If we don’t, how can we expect others to? The best thing is to try to reduce her burden." Mrs. Li said, "If we can let our child rest, then let her rest."

"We’ve all been through those times ourselves. How difficult, how busy, aren’t we aware of it?" Mrs. Li said.

"Hmph!" Mr. Li said, "You know how to care for daughters, you know how to be the good person. Do you think I want her to be tired?"

"I’m just thinking that, before she gets married, we should spend more time with her if we can." Mr. Li sighed, "You’ll think I don’t care for my daughter, don’t want her to rest more."

"But once she’s married, she will have her own family. You said it yourself, we’ve all been through this. Naturally, we know that once one starts a family, their parents’ family takes a backseat. Her priority will definitely be her own small family now." Mr. Li said.

"Most of us undergo this transformation. I’ve mentally prepared myself for it. So I want to spend more time with Xiao Yun before she gets married. After she gets married, we’ll all take a step back." Mr. Li said quietly.

"Besides her own little family, she’ll have to care for her in-laws, won’t she? Especially since she will be someone’s wife, she can’t afford to leave any ammunition for gossip. She needs to balance both sides, and even be more dedicated to her in-laws to satisfy them."

"By then, for her sake, we’ll also have to step back and not make things difficult for her." Mr. Li thought about it and felt melancholic.

Having a daughter and caring for her like a treasure.

But once the daughter is married, she has to make such huge sacrifices.

How can he not feel uncomfortable?

The daughter he raised for over twenty years, treasured, now has to be cautious in someone else’s family.

Which father would be pleased?

Mr. Li isn’t harboring malicious thoughts about the Zhao Family.

Mr. Li isn’t as detail-oriented as Mrs. Li and didn’t consider Li Xiaoyun’s future in-laws to be the Zhao Family.

It’s just a comparison.

Mr. Li currently doesn’t have a concrete idea of who the in-laws will be; he simply made an assumption.

Mrs. Li sighed.

Although she knows about Zhao Dingli’s feelings for Li Xiaoyun.

She didn’t dare to arrogantly assume the Zhao Family is the in-laws yet.

So she understood Mr. Li’s words.

"Let’s just wait and see; it’s not that time yet." Mrs. Li said.

Mr. Li nodded, conceding, "Hearing you say that, Xiao Yun is quite exhausted. Let’s tell her she doesn’t need to come home every weekend; she can come visit when she misses us."

"Alright!" Mrs. Li nodded with a smile.

Ye Fei was at home pondering new dishes.

Zhao Gushen sat at the bar accompanying her.

Watching Ye Fei cook made him happy, not bored at all.

Occasionally chatting in the 8864 group, replying a sentence or two.

"By the way, the competition for the remaining nine spots in the International Cooking Competition will be held in Changping next month." Zhao Gushen said, "Do you want to participate?"

Ye Fei hadn’t mentioned it, and Zhao Gushen wasn’t sure what she thought.

Ye Fei shook her head, saying, "I don’t plan to participate this year."

"Why?" Zhao Gushen asked, "Is it because of the previous incident with Zhuang Mingyan?"

"Am I the type to retreat due to unfair treatment?" Ye Fei said, "The more unfair it is, the more motivated I am. I just want to win and show them that no matter what tricks they try, it won’t work. Against absolute strength, any tactics are useless."

While stirring some eggs, Ye Fei said, "But after participating in this domestic cooking competition, I’ve found there are many areas I need to learn more about."

"This time, the contestants sent by Changping Academy were newcomers." Ye Fei said.

"Not really new, just not counting fourth-year graduates," Zhao Gushen reminded.

Ye Fei shook her head, "That still means missing a year of learning and experience. What grade is Tian Pengpo in?"

Zhao Gushen was momentarily stunned before responding, "Second year."

"See, even beating Tian Pengpo was tough for me," Ye Fei said, "Even without Zhuang Mingyan’s interference, Tian Pengpo and I are evenly matched; either of us winning would be agreeable. It’s just because of Zhuang Mingyan’s disruption that most people felt it was unfair and thought I should win."

"In reality, if Tian Pengpo won, it would also be justified," Ye Fei said.

"Facing the entire Changping Academy, involving more people, not just limited to those under 30, how far can I go with my abilities?" Ye Fei said, "I don’t know, but I’m sure there are people far better than me in Changping Academy."

"Simply judging the level of Changping Academy, I don’t even know if I can make it to the top ten," Ye Fei doesn’t have a clear understanding of Changping Academy’s level.

So, she can’t really assess it accurately.

But Zhao Gushen knows, "You’re definitely in the top ten."

"If you participate this time, you’ll definitely be in the top ten, and you’ll surely be able to go to the international event," Zhao Gushen said.

"I want to try guarding the fort," Ye Fei said.

"Guarding the fort?"

"Yes." Ye Fei nodded, "This year’s International Cooking Competition rules state that official players will go to various countries to earn badges, eventually selecting the top ten countries by badge count to compete in Gaul, right?"

Zhao Gushen nodded.

"The official players from various countries are out earning badges, so they naturally don’t have time to stay in their countries waiting for others to compete. Naturally, there needs to be a defending side," Ye Fei said.

The official regulations haven’t been announced.

Yet, higher-ups like Zhao Gushen are aware of it.

Zhao Gushen knows Ye Fei’s personality well, so even though he knows, he hasn’t told her.

Ye Fei doesn’t want him to inform her beforehand.

Unexpectedly, even though he hasn’t mentioned it, Ye Fei managed to guess accurately.

Zhao Gushen smiled at Ye Fei, his eyes full of pride.

Ye Fei is so clever, even if he didn’t say, she guessed it so accurately.

That’s Ye Fei for you.

She’s incredibly impressive!

Zhao Gushen’s face was full of pride.

His expression embarrassed Ye Fei.

With a flushed face, she focused on her work, but Zhao Gushen’s gaze was too prominent.

Ye Fei couldn’t ignore it.

She couldn’t quite concentrate on her tasks.

She had to speak, red-cheeked, "My little guess isn’t anything too remarkable."
