After the Groom Ran Off, I Convinced a Military Commander to Marry Me - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Master, I Can Only Help You This Much!

Entering the lounge, Qu Xiaowan poured a cup of Da Hong Pao1 for Jing Yu. “Are you forced to stay for dinner?”

Jing Yu answered, “It’s alright. After all, they’re your elders.”

Although Jing Yu would not call Qu Xiaowan ‘Grandpa’ and ‘Dad’ with her status, he would still respect them. This was also respect for Qu Xiaowan.

Qu Xiaowan stole a glance at him and suddenly felt that he was not as cold as he looked.

The Qu Family treated Jing Yu warmly. Old Master Qu even personally cooked and asked his son and nephew to help him make a table full of dishes.

Throughout the entire meal, Jing Yu gave the Qu Family face. He did not reject Old Master Qu when he took out his precious baijiu[2.Baijiu is a clear liquid usually distilled from fermented sorghum, although other grains may be used. The strong distilled spirit is unavoidable at Chinese social functions.].

Qu Xiaowan did not know how good the Commander’s alcohol tolerance was, but the Qu family’s alcohol tolerance was very good. Moreover, this baijiu was very strong. She did not want to make the Commander drunk again!

“Commander Jing, shall I drink it for you?”

Jing Yu turned to look at Qu Xiaowan. As he was already a little tipsy, his eyes were half-closed and the corners of his eyebrows were raised. He looked less cold and more adorable like Ah Yu. “I can do it.”

Qu Xiaowan instantly shut up. She thought that she suddenly remembered that men did not want to be helped in any field.

The Qu Family also thought that the two of them had a good relationship, especially Old Master Qu. The more he looked at his grandson-in-law, the more he liked him.

Qu Xiaoman, who was sitting at the side, had a dark expression the entire time. She had just quarreled with Yi Han and now that she was being shown off by Qu Xiaowan, she felt that she was about to go crazy!

Old Master Qu asked Jing Yu, “I wonder if these dishes suit the Commander’s taste?”

Jing Yu was a man of few words. “They’re pretty good.”

This time, Qu Xiaoman finally seized the opportunity. She said innocently, “Commander, you don’t know, right? Our Qu Family knows how to cook! Aiya, no, Big Sister doesn’t seem to know how to cook. You haven’t eaten her cooking before, right?”

Old Master Qu was a little unhappy. Why was she saying this now?

Even Qu Zhen looked at Qu Xiaoman unhappily.

However, Qu Xiaoman could not care less. She could not let go of any opportunity to ruin their relationship. If their relationship was too good, how could she have the chance to fight for the management rights of the branch?

Qu Xiaowan felt that Qu Xiaoman was really crazy. Qu Xiaoman was constantly making her presence known. Qu Xiaowan turned around and was about to explain to Jing Yu when he said, “Xiaowan’s cooking is very delicious.”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

Jing Yu continued, “She cooked for me before. It’s especially delicious.”

Qu Xiaowan was stunned. When did she cook for him? How could the dignified Commander lie so calmly?

Qu Xiaoman’s face turned red and white. The chopsticks in her hand were about to break!

Although the Qu Family did not believe that Qu Xiaowan’s cooking was really delicious, they believed that Xiaowan had a very good relationship with the Commander! This was much more important than Xiaowan’s cooking skills!

Finally, after dinner, Qu Xiaowan boarded the aircraft with Jing Yu under the gazes of her family.

After boarding the aircraft, Jing Yu instructed Azure Dragon to return to the mansion. Then, he sat on a chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Qu Xiaowan said, “Commander, why don’t I go back and cook some hangover soup for you?”

“Why don’t you call me Ah Yu?” Jing Yu looked up at her. His face was still cold, but his tone was very aggrieved, a little like Ah Yu…

Qu Xiaowan realized that she still liked Ah Yu very much, so she could not be too distant from the Commander. She probed, “Didn’t you say that you don’t remember what happened after you entered the manic period?”

Jing Yu: “I remember a portion of it.”

That was too vague. Which part was it?

Qu Xiaowan’s ears burned at the thought of what happened during the manic period. Who knew what he remembered! However, this was in view of the fact that this big shot was a little tipsy now. After all, the Qu Family’s vintage wine was the same formula as the ancient Earth’s Maotai. The concentration was very high and was very precious in this galactic era. Jing Yu had just drunk a lot!

Qu Xiaowan could only take a step back. “Alright, I’ll call you Ah Yu in private in the future, okay?”

She could not say it in front of others.

Jing Yu didn’t seem very satisfied. He frowned slightly but didn’t say anything. He just continued to close his eyes.

The aircraft soon arrived at the mansion. All kinds of robots were busy.

Azure Dragon flapped its small wings and said, “Madam, please send Master to the bedroom to rest. It’s the room you rested in previously.”

“Alright.” Qu Xiaowan said.

Fortunately, Jing Yu was not drunk. At least he knew how to cooperate with Qu Xiaowan. Otherwise, she would not be able to support the tall Commander.

On the other hand, Azure Dragon narrowed its electronic eyes. Master! That’s all I can help you with!
