《Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!》Chapter 56: Chase Her Out Again
Advertisement
"Mom, the bird's nest is almost ready, right? I can't wait to try it."
Zhou Mo's eyes were sparkling. He began to look forward to his mother feeding him delicious food.
"Don't be in such a hurry. Let these yellow rock sugar be boiled a bit more, then you can take some and eat, you little glutton."
As Qian Yun spoke, it was obvious that she doted on her child.
"It's done. Quickly go and get two small bowls. I'll scoop some out for you to taste."
Qian Yun poured a small handful of goji berries and placed them in a small bowl. After putting them aside, she picked up two porcelain bowls and prepared to scoop out the bird's nest.
"Take this bowl to your father. I'll scoop more for you when you're back."
Qian Yun looked at the half of the bird's nest left in Zhou Mo's bowl and said with a smile.
"Okay, Mom."
Zhou Mo answered and took the bowl of bird's nest away.
"Momo, slow down. There's no need to rush." Zhou Mo walked into the living room. Zhou Zheng was still sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.
"Dad, the bird's nest is ready."
"Okay, you can just leave it there." Zhou Zheng still had a calm expression.
When Zhou Mo came back, he saw that his mother had prepared half a bowl of bird's nest for him. It seemed that she had not prepared Yun Lian's portion.
"Good child, I saw that you've finished eating a whole apple. I believe that you've lost your appetite. I'm afraid that you won't be able to digest your food properly, so I didn't prepare your portion. Stay for dinner tonight. I'll treat you well later."
Yun Lian could obviously hear the hidden meaning in the noble lady's words. It was fine if she did not want to let her eat the bird's nest, but what did she mean by asking her to stay for dinner tonight? It was obvious that Zhou Mo's mother wanted to chase her away.

Despite that, Zhou Mo's mother used very appropriate words, so Yun Lian did not know what to say. Sure enough, in front of Qian Yun, Yun Lian was still too inexperienced.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Although Yun Lian felt uncomfortable, she still had a smile on her face. She maintained the gentle and virtuous image in Zhou Mo's heart.
"You're welcome. Momo, come and drink this first. I see that you seem to have lost a lot of weight recently."
As Qian Yun spoke, she picked up the bowl of the bird's nest and handed it to Zhou Mo. . Yun Lian could only gulp silently, but she did not dare to say anything. In the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner. Qian Yun did not know how to cook, but her family was relatively wealthy, so they ordered dishes from outside every day. These dishes were most likely cooked in a way that Yun Lian had never seen before. She suddenly felt that her trip was not in vain and that she had learned a lot.
"Son, go sit with your dad. I'll sit with Miss Yun Lian!"
Qian Yun saw that her son, Zhou Mo, had sat next to his dad. She was very satisfied. As expected, her son's heart was still on her side. No matter where he went, he would still listen to his mother. Yun Lian could only sit on Qian Yun's side.
"Miss Yun Lian, try this. This is specially prepared for you. See if you like it"
Qian Yun still had her usual courtesy. The dish was not specially prepared. It was ordered in advance.
Yun Lian had a rough idea of what was going on, but she could only curse internally. She smiled and responded, "Thank you, Auntie. This is very delicious. I like it very much!"

"It's good that you like it!"
Qian Yun looked very happy. She then beckoned to Yun Lian. "Try this. It tastes pretty good too."
The dishes cooked by a special chef were much more delicious than the ones cooked at home. In a short while, half of the bowl of rice in Yun Lian's bowl disappeared.
Qian Yun looked at the way the girl ate and did not feel happy at all.
"Son, it looks like it's getting late. After you finish eating, send Miss Yun Lian home!"
'Home?!
Yun Lian was shocked. She had just arrived and was planning to stay here for a few nights. How could she be sent home so soon?
She hesitated and did not know how to respond.
"Mom, I brought her back to stay. Her house is very far from here. She won't be able to go home today."
Zhou Mo had been staring at Qian Yun the whole time. He saw the anger shooting out of his mother's eyes. It was a sign that she was about to lose her temper, so he quickly explained.
"Mom, just let her sleep in the guest room for one night. I'll send her to the station tomorrow."
