I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 144 The Familiar Fried Dumplings

Inheriting his father's career, this is something that Lin Zengxian has thought about thoroughly.

But it was not an idea that Lin Zengxian had long ago.

At least when Hanyu Airi was still alive, he hadn't thought about it that way.

The previous plans are no longer important now, those things that he locked and lost the keys are just a "past".

Now, he wants to become the good doctor Hanyu Airi expected, and he also wants to be the successor of the family business.

"excuse me."

Following Mingjing Yang's back and walking into the residence of Mingjing's family, Lin Zengxian glanced at the furnishings briefly and met the strange gaze.

"Sachiko, my wife."

Reaching out his hand to his wife and introducing his family members to Lin Zengxian, Mingjing Yang smiled loosely, but it was not as easy as imagined.

He knew that Lin Zengxian had come to seek cooperation.

He also needs cooperation, more precisely, he needs an opportunity to "break the situation" within the family.

Out of such importance, he put today's meeting in his own home.

"Hello, ma'am."

Bowing to the friendly Mrs. Mingjing, Lin Zengxian exchanged glances with Mingjing Nan who had just walked to his mother.

The two of them couldn't talk about the purpose of looking at each other this time, it was more like a subconscious action, looking at each other.

From Osaka to Kyoto, Lin Zengxian drove for more than an hour. Today, from Kyoto to Osaka, the two of them took the Shinkansen, which didn't take much time.

However, the two still chatted all the way.

There always seems to be no shortage of topics.

In this "topic", Lin Zengxian did not mention "Mitsui", and Mingjing Nan never asked Lin Zengxian about his plans for this trip.

This kind of tacit understanding without communication made Lin Zengxian prepare the door-to-door gift that Mingjing Nan had brought into the house just now.

"Welcome, child."

How to call Lin Zengxian, Xingzi had thought about it.

"Mr. Lin" is normal, "Doctor Lin" is fine, and "Chairman Lin" is actually fine too.

But in the end, Sachiko decided to use the title "child".

Although she can indeed say that because of Professor Mikael, but this decision is more for the sake of her daughter.

She knew how Lin Zengxian took care of her daughter in Seoul, and she also noticed some details of her daughter when she talked about "Lin Zengxian".

Therefore, she decided to face "Zengxian" who came to the house as a guest as an elder, instead of facing "Lin" who came to discuss cooperation as a member of "Mitsui" like her husband.

"What about the sea?"

Looking into the depths of the room, and then to the quiet second floor, Ming Jingyang led Lin Zengxian to the living room without finding his eldest son.

I said last night that we will entertain guests at home today. Is this kid having a football game at school today?

"He'll be back in a while, there should be a traffic jam on the road."

Smiling and nodding to Lin Zengxian, Xingzi answered her husband's question, and after the two entered the living room, she turned and looked at her daughter.

Her eyes are bright, her steps are light, and she doesn't feel any fatigue from the journey. My daughter seems to be in high spirits today.

Shouldn't it be said that it was beyond my expectations...?

Looking away, pursing her lips and shaking her head with a smile, Sachiko also walked into the living room.

"Thank you Lin Jun for taking care of Nan all the time. I have troubled Lin Jun again these two days."

Sitting opposite each other by the small case by the window, Mingjing Yang looked at Lin Zengxian again with friendly but not soft eyes.

When I met Lin Zengxian before, it was "Dr. Lin" who was "Professor Mikael's student".

Today, he wants to confirm with his own eyes whether this young man has the stamina to be in charge of Great Wall Heavy Industry in the future.

"I'm going to the kitchen to prepare lunch, so I won't entertain Mr. Lin for the time being."

Hearing his wife's "exit" as expected, Nai Yang picked up the kettle from the simmering stove next to the desk, poured the boiling water just boiled into the teacup on the desk, and then swirled it gently to let the boiling water warm the teacup and pour the water into the teacup. Pour it into a small jar specially filled with "waste water".

"I regard Nai-san as a friend, and traveling together is a small matter."

Putting his hands on his knees, he bowed and watched Sachiko leave. Lin Zengxian saw Mingjing Nan following behind his mother and winked at him.

"I'm going to help in the kitchen."

Different from his father's solemnity and mother's kindness, Mingjing Nan's diction and voice have the intimacy and softness that can only be seen when he doesn't see the outside world.

Mingjing Yang knew that her daughter's words were not meant for herself.

"Nan is working as an artist in Seoul alone. Thanks to Mr. Lin, Sachiko and I can finally feel at ease."

First put two spoons of tea powder into the tea bowl with a teaspoon, and then add a spoonful of boiling water from the kettle with a long-handled wooden spoon. Mingjing Yang stirred gently with a cylindrical bamboo brush. The whole process was always slow and calm. Can't afford the slightest disturbance.

And Lin Zengxian, who was sitting opposite Mingjingyang, remained motionless, just watching his movements quietly.

Regathering his mind, which was mostly focused on the movement of the opposite side, Mingjing Yang watched the tea powder melt little by little with his eyes down. He gently rotated the tea bowl in his hand, turned the patterned side to the opposite side, and bent over to serve the tea.

"grateful."

Bending down to take it with both hands, Lin Zengxian first turned the tea bowl clockwise twice, turning the patterned side towards Mingjing Yang to show respect, then drank the tea soup, then turned the tea bowl counterclockwise twice, turning the pattern towards himself, and finally He looked down at the tea bowl with appreciative eyes.

From the perspective that Lin Zengxian couldn't see, Sachiko, who was about to enter the kitchen, withdrew her gaze, and raised her foot to cross the threshold of the kitchen.

"These etiquette can't help him."

Sachiko heard her daughter walking into the kitchen behind her, talking to herself with a mixture of laughter and an upswing.

A sentence that seemed to be watching the excitement.

"Nan, I'll leave this to you."

The voice was heard, and Xingzi's heart moved. She pointed to the dumplings she had prepared in advance, and then began to prepare today's lunch, which is not just "lunch".

Her husband told her last night that today she would entertain "Chairman Lin" instead of "Doctor Lin".

So, she specially prepared the ingredients and menu this morning.

"Hey? Shall I do it?"

Knowing that his mother meant to let him make this Japanese-style gyoza, Minami couldn't help but look at her more.

I do happen to be able to do this, and I did come to help in the kitchen, but on an occasion like today, wouldn't it be better for my mother to directly control this kind of matter that needs to be controlled by the oily smoke?In case I make a mistake...

"Yes, Mom remembers clearly, you did a good job doing this."

The original intention was not to let her usually busy daughter do the cooking, but Sachiko decided on the spur of the moment and chose a dish that her daughter was familiar with and handed it to her.

As for what name this dish will be served on...

Sachiko turned around and looked in the direction of the kitchen door, narrowing her eyes slightly.

Then it depends on the outcome of the conversation in the living room.
