Chapter 1629: Chapter 1623: Agree to Stay

“Mr. Ye, can we…”

“No, you’ll both come back with me later.” Before Pang Chao could finish speaking, Ye Junhua interrupted him. His daughters were girls, so it was fine for them to stay, but Ye Li and Pang Chao were boys. What would people say if they stayed? It could affect his daughters’ reputations, so he definitely wouldn’t agree.

“Mr. Ye, we don’t want to stay. We were just wondering if we could stay a bit longer. I heard them saying something about making something delicious, so I wanted to try it and see how it tastes.” Pang Chao had no intention of staying anyway. He knew there were things girls could do but boys couldn’t.

Therefore, he never thought about doing something that would affect others’ reputations. His family had strict rules about this kind of thing.

Although Ye Li also wanted to stay, he knew he couldn’t, so he didn’t hint at wanting to stay. He didn’t want to leave a bad impression.

“Uh, you guys are really…” Ye Junhua’s face felt a little embarrassed. So, it was his mistake, misunderstanding their intentions.

But anyone would misinterpret their words, and now they’re saying they want to taste the food being cooked? Didn’t they just finish eating? Why are they thinking about their next meal already?

“Mr. Ye, please agree. We promise we just want to taste it and won’t be greedy.” Pang Chao thought if Mr. Ye didn’t agree, he might start crying. Didn’t he see the hand pinching him from behind?

Honestly, couldn’t the boss speak up for himself if he wanted to stay? Why make him do it?

“Can you not do such embarrassing things?” Ye Junhua was blushing. What kind of students were these? How could they embarrass him like this? But he couldn’t help but pamper them. Ah, why was his life so difficult?

“It’s fine, you can stay. Lele, are you going to cook anything later?” Qin Lei was laughing inside as he saw Ye Junhua’s utterly embarrassed expression. Having students like these, who knew whether it was a blessing or a curse.

To think his daughter’s cooking could get these two youngsters so excited, even to the point they’d throw away their dignity.

“Dad, why are you asking? Do you want something to eat? Or do you have something in mind? If there’s anything I can make, I’ll make it for you.” Qin Jiale, chatting with Xu Shaoqin and the others, had no idea what was happening on this side. She thought her father wanted to eat something.

“Just tell me what you’re making later.” Nangong Shulan saw the men’s faces were a bit embarrassed and called out to her daughter.

“I was planning to make stir-fried whelks and fried rice sweets, oh, and shrimp pancakes. Why, is there a problem?” Qin Jiale looked puzzled at her parents. Wasn’t she allowed to cook?

“Nothing, go ahead and cook. Remember to make a bit more.” Nangong Shulan thought it was typical foodie behavior. Her youngest daughter loved these foods, and it was normal for her to want her friends to try them. But she found it amusing that the boys liked these snacks too.

After all, boys rarely put aside their pride to eat snacks they thought were for girls.

She didn’t think it was bad for them to want to eat, but they could just say so. She almost misunderstood and thought they wanted to stay overnight. Even if her husband agreed, she wouldn’t consent to that. They weren’t relatives, and letting them stay could lead to gossip.
