Chapter 1646: Stolen Joy

Lu Jin looked at Gu Nianzhi's delicate and lively smile, and her eyes that were as clear and lingling as ice springs from snow mountains, and he felt a deep love and reluctance in his heart.

What he is most proud of in his life is not winning two Nobel Prizes, discovering parallel spaces, or realizing the perfect optimization of human genes, but having such a lovely and intelligent daughter.

He is content.

Lu Jin suddenly showed a satisfied smile, and he nodded, "Okay, I will test your DNA."

Gu Nianzhi heaved a sigh of relief, walked around behind Lu Jin's seat with a smile, thumped his back with his fists, and said flatteringly, "Thank you, Dad! I'm going to think about how to get their hair now." Or blood samples, saliva samples are also okay? But saliva is too disgusting, it is more accurate to test with blood."

Lu Jin couldn't help but laugh, turned around and tapped her a few times with his hand, "Whatever, hair is fine, and blood is also disgusting. Besides, if I test your DNA, are you afraid that it will be inaccurate? Even if I only use one of their cells, I can measure it accurately."

"I know, I know! Dad is the best!" Gu Nianzhi was so happy that he didn't know what to do, subconsciously hugged Lu Jin's neck from behind, and kissed him on the cheek.

Even Gu Nianzhi was stunned after the kiss.

Lu Jin was even more stunned, and his face full of wisdom appeared in a rare state of stagnation.

"...I'll go see if dinner is ready..." Gu Nianzhi was very embarrassed, and ran out of the study in a hurry.

Didn't they grow up beside Lu Jin? Although the nature of father and daughter is indelible, this rare intimacy has never happened before. It is a brand new experience for Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi.

Seeing Gu Nianzhi leaving in a hurry, Lu Jin sat motionless on the computer chair, even the expression on his face was like a specimen frozen in time.

There was no sound in the room, and soon, the voice-activated overhead light gradually went out, and the study room with blackout and soundproof curtains was pitch black.

Lu Jin just sat in the darkness like this, letting the thick night surround him.

He thought, let him alone bear those dark, dirty, filthy, and shady things.

The happiness during this period was like something stolen, how could he have the heart to let his sunny daughter be attacked by darkness again?

He will never allow anyone to stretch out his sinful claws to his daughter again.

Just let him end it all.

It is up to him to end all darkness and give his daughter a bright future.

Lu Jin closed his eyes and let himself become one with the darkness.

...

Gu Nianzhi ran out of the study excitedly, caught off guard, and plunged into someone's arms.

Gu Nianzhi's mood suddenly calmed down when he smelled that familiar yet unfamiliar atmosphere.

She hurriedly took a step back, raised her head, saw Huo Shaoheng standing at the door of the study, and stammered, "What are you doing here?"

"I said that dinner is ready, so I invite you to eat. What's the matter? Where's Uncle Lu? Don't you want dinner?" Huo Shaoheng looked up at the door of the study.

When Gu Nianzhi ran out, there were still lights in the study.

Looking back now, it was pitch black in the study.

"The light is voice-activated, and it will turn off automatically if there is no sound." Gu Nianzhi said shyly, "I'll go to the restaurant first, is dinner ready?"

She ran away quickly without looking back.

Huo Shaoheng looked at her back, then at the door of the study room, pondered for a while, then knocked on the door, coughed, and said, "Uncle Lu, dinner is ready, please move to the dining room."

There was no sound in the study for a long time.

Huo Shaoheng was about to open the door to take a look, when the door of the study opened in front of him with a bang.

Lu Jin's nose is not his nose, his eyes are not his eyes, he stared at him angrily, and said, "What are you doing here, sneaky?! This is my daughter's home, don't act like it's yours!"

Huo Shaoheng: "..."

After thinking about it with downcast eyes, Huo Shaoheng said quietly: "...Mr. Lu made your favorite stewed cherry blossom red snapper.

"

As expected, this trick also worked for Lu Jin.

His eyes lit up immediately, and he said eagerly, "Is it stewed with soy sauce, shredded ginger, burdock, king oyster mushrooms and plum wine?"

Huo Shaoheng showed a troubled expression, "...I don't know, Mr. Lu did it, and I was there to help. I saw plum wine, but I'm not familiar with the others."

"Hmph! I don't even know how to cook! I'm worthless!" Lu Jin raised his face, walked past him, and walked quickly into the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Lu Yuan washed his hands and was introducing to Gu Nianzhi the special dish he made today, "This is called plum Huang Shiyu, and it is cherry blossom red sea bream stewed with soy sauce, shredded ginger, burdock and king oyster mushroom with plum wine. Have you ever eaten red sea bream? When this fish is the most delicious, its whole body is cherry blossom-colored, the meat is very tender and sweet, and it is rare that it has no fishy smell at all, so there is no need to add cooking wine to destroy its delicious taste."

Gu Nianzhi listened with gusto, and the little embarrassment just now disappeared.

Lu Jin hurried in, looked at Gu Nianzhi eagerly, but didn't dare to sit beside her.

Gu Nianzhi looked up and saw it, and waved to him with a smile on his face, "Dad, sit here!"

Lu Jin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like he was alive again.

He smiled and went to sit next to Gu Nianzhi, and said to Lu Yuan who was sitting on the other side of Gu Nianzhi: "Boss Lu, I never thought you would be willing to be a cherry blossom snapper today."

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, moved the seat back, and said, "I'm here to give Nianzhi something delicious, so you eat less today, I only made four cherry blossom snappers."

The four of them happened to be one person and one.

Lu Jin distributed it unceremoniously: "Nianzhi eats two, and I eat one and a half. You and Peter share the remaining half."

Lu Yuan: "..."

Huo Shaoheng took two serving chopsticks to Gu Nianzhi and put them into her bowl, and said, "I don't eat this kind of fish, you can eat it."

"Hmph! No food!" Lu Jin rolled his eyes, and quickly said to Gu Nianzhi, "Nianzhi, let's eat, ignore them."

Gu Nianzhi nodded with a smile, looked at the light cherry pink fish in the bowl, used chopsticks to pry a small piece of golden meat the size of soybeans under the fish's eyes, and put it in his mouth to chew slowly.

At the beginning, the light and lingering taste was like the fog in the autumn morning, soaking the mouth little by little.

Sip it again, just like the autumn sun suddenly bursting out, dispelling the mist, the delicious and sweet taste almost exploded on the tip of her tongue, awakening all her taste buds.

Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened suddenly, and he almost swallowed his tongue.

"It's so delicious!" Gu Nianzhi swallowed the best piece of golden meat reluctantly, and gave Lu Yuan a thumbs up: "The taste of the fish itself is not covered by the stewed seasoning at all, there is soy sauce, but But it doesn't have the salty taste of soy sauce. Mr. Lu, your craftsmanship is really superb!"

"Is it delicious?" Lu Jin was complacent, as if it was a fish he made himself, "Come on, I'll give you this too!"

Gu Nianzhi quickly shook his head: "No need, no need, this one weighs a whole catty, it's not bad if I can finish one."

She looked at the two fish on her plate, then glanced at the people around the dining table, and said apologetically, "Mr. Lu, Mr. Peter, I'm sorry, I let this fish go on my plate. So I'll give it to someone else, so I'll give it to my dad. My dad won't mind eating what's on my plate, will he?"

Lu Jin shook his head again, nodded again, smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and proudly made a V-shaped scissors hand towards Lu Yuan and Huo Shaoheng.

Lu Yuan: "..."

Huo Shaoheng hung his head expressionlessly, took a piece of eggplant box and ate it.

...

The whole dinner was spent in the rhythm of Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi's father and daughter chattering and praising how delicious the cherry blossom snapper was.

In the end, Huo Shaoheng "reluctantly", under the banner of "not wasting food", voluntarily ate the half fish left by Gu Nianzhi.

As for Lu Yuan, he didn't eat at all, saying that he was full after seeing Lu Jin's appearance, and couldn't eat anything else at all.

After dinner, Gu Nianzhi and Lu Jin were full, made Pu'er tea, and went to the living room to chat and digest.

Lu Yuan was going to clean up the kitchen, but Huo Shaoheng raised his hand to stop him, "Mr. Lu, I interrupted a meal today, so I'm the only one to clean up the dishes."

Lu Yuan was not polite to him, but he didn't want to go to the living room to see Lu Jin's "little man's success" face, so he sat in the kitchen and chatted with Huo Shaoheng while looking at his mobile phone.

"Have you ever eaten cherry blossom red snapper before?" Lu Yuan actually asked whether Huo Shaoheng had eaten cherry blossom red snapper in that world.

Of course Huo Shaoheng had eaten, but he just didn't want to argue with Lu Jin and Gu Nian.

While putting the dishes in the dishwasher, he said, "No, the wild ones are too expensive, and the farmed ones don't taste good, so I'm not interested."

"The wild ones have already risen to five or six thousand pounds. Although they are not unbearable, they can't afford to eat them every day." Lu Yuan shook his head with a smile, "It's also because of the Chinese New Year. It's the first time that Nianzhi will celebrate the New Year with us. Lu Jin can't wait Get all the delicious things in the world for Nian Zhi to eat."

Gu Nianzhi was chatting with Lu Jin in the living room when he suddenly heard the ringing of his cell phone. He took it out and saw that it was Luo Piaopiao's call. He immediately answered it with a smile on his face and asked, "Piao Piao? Are you home yet? Is your brother okay?"

Luo Piaopiao was flattered and hurriedly said, "We are all fine. But..."

She looked at Mr. Qin who was sitting in front of her, and said with a smile: "Cousin Gu, are you free tomorrow? Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. I want to invite you to my house for a New Year's Eve meal."
