Chapter 475 Unsatisfied

The next day, Rao Qingsong brought Rao Che to pay New Year's greetings.

The New Year was a lively and festive time.

Huo Chenzhou looked at Rao Che and felt that Rao Che was much thinner than when he was a child, but he was still gentle and fair-skinned.

Shen Zhixia quite liked Rao Che. Rao Che seemed like a very serious person. He didn't talk much, but when he sat there, he looked very proper.

Most importantly, he didn't grow up to be ugly. When he was a child, Rao Che was a soft and glutinous dumpling. When he grew up, he looked like a scholar.

Shen Zhixia smiled. Since there were guests all of a sudden, she went out to buy groceries. She wanted to buy more so that the meal would be more plentiful.

Rao Qingsong looked around and then asked about Da Bao's situation. When he learned that Da Bao was still outside, Rao Qingsong started talking about his own son.

He kept praising his position, making it sound like he was doing a sales pitch.

Huo Chenzhou only glanced at Rao Che.

He found that Rao Che was indeed quite good; this guy was very shy, unlike Wang Xiaojian, who was very outgoing.

Most importantly, Rao Che is quite handsome.

Huo Chenzhou exclaimed, "Your son is quite good; he doesn't look like you at all."

“I also think my son is pretty good, but Lao Huo, what do you mean by saying we don’t look alike? I feel like he looks exactly like me when I was young.” Rao Qingsong felt unconvinced.

Rao Che is indeed his proud son. He was admitted to a top university, majoring in aerospace technology. After graduation, he will be a technical talent who studies aircraft.

The key point is that he is truly knowledgeable; not everyone can get into that university.

Huo Chenzhou understood his meaning; he wanted to introduce Rao Che to Da Bao. In the past, Huo Chenzhou would have refused outright, thinking that Da Bao was too young and not suitable to find a partner.

But then he remembered that Da Bao and Xiao Bao had said they would never get married, so he started to get nervous.

"Once Da Bao returns, let the younger generation get acquainted with him," Huo Chenzhou said.

Rao Qingsong understood what he meant and said happily, "This isn't the first time they've met. I remember when we were little, I wanted to arrange a marriage between them, but you refused."

"If you had agreed back then, our two families might have ended up together."

Rao Che listened from the side, his cheeks flushed slightly, but he didn't say anything. It was clear that he had no objection to the arrangement.

After a while, laughter came from outside.

It's Da Bao, Xiao Bao, and Wang Xiao Jian who are back.

Upon seeing Da Bao, Huo Chenzhou greeted him, "Da Bao, come here quickly, we have guests today."

"Guests?" Da Bao was taken aback.

She wasn't surprised that there were guests, but rather found it strange that they only notified her and not Xiaobao at all.

Huo Chenzhou said, "Yes, you two knew each other when you were kids. Come and meet him. This is Rao Che."

Rao Che quickly said, "Sister Wangshu."

Huo Wangshu is Da Bao's name, but everyone is used to calling her Da Bao, so hearing this name made Da Bao pause for a moment.

Rao Qingsong said happily, "Dabao has grown into a beautiful young lady. She's so cute and pretty now."

Huo Chenzhou said, "You don't need to tell me that. Of course my daughter is very beautiful."

Rao Qingsong said, "Xiao Che doesn't have any plans for this holiday, so let him stay here for a few days."

These were blunt words, but Huo Chenzhou agreed.

He knew what Rao Qingsong meant: he hoped that Rao Che and Da Bao could develop a relationship.

Huo Chenzhou's feelings were somewhat complicated. He didn't really want Da Bao to get married so early, but he also didn't want Da Bao to never get married. After thinking about it, he felt that the best way was to find someone he thought was reliable and keep that person under his watchful eye, so that the other person couldn't do anything about it.

Rao Che is not bad.

Huo Chenzhou thought the idea was pretty good.

He then gave the two some time to spend together. Da Bao seemed completely oblivious to romantic feelings; she didn't understand Huo Chenzhou's intentions at all and thought they were just ordinary friends. So she calmly greeted Rao Che, while Rao Che seemed rather shy.

By this time, Wang Xiaojian would usually have already left. He's a very reasonable person and never stays here to eat. But today he was acting very strangely, plopping down in the middle, right between Rao Che and Da Bao.

Isn't this just a big light bulb?

The scariest thing is that no one noticed.

Huo Chenzhou coughed and said, "Xiao Jian, shouldn't you go back too? Your mother must be worried about you."

Wang Xiaojian was shameless: "Uncle Huo, my mother has something to do today and won't be back for a while. I'll just eat here. In return, I'll cook and wash the dishes for you."

Huo Chenzhou: "?"

No, when did he ask Wang Xiaojian to stay for dinner? He never mentioned it, yet this guy took the initiative to ask for a meal.

Is his face big?

He really didn't like Wang Xiaojian at all.

Upon hearing this, Huo's mother took a liking to Wang Xiaojian: "Xiaojian, I really didn't expect you could cook! These days, it's rare to see a boy who can cook."

Wang Xiaojian laughed and said, "I learned it later."

Mrs. Huo smiled and said, "Good, really good."

Wang Xiaojian stood up and said, "Grandma, let me help you prepare the vegetables. I can also wash vegetables and cut meat."

Rao Che adjusted his glasses and said somewhat awkwardly, "I... I can cook too, I can help you."

Mrs. Huo was surprised that young men these days actually enjoyed cooking so much. She shook her head and said, "No need, you all rest. I can manage here. How can we let our guests cook?"

Da Bao touched his face, and said thoughtfully, "I didn't expect everyone to know how to cook. I can't cook, so I'll learn from them in the future."

Neither she nor Xiaobao knew how to cook, because Huo's mother was such a good cook, and no one had ever taught them.

But she loves to eat, so she thought she should learn to cook for herself in the future.

Wang Xiaojian quickly said, "Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you anytime."

Rao Che frowned and said, "I... I can make it for you too."

Their eyes met in mid-air, sparks flying everywhere.

Da Bao was completely unaware of what was happening. She said speechlessly, "If I want something to eat, I can ask my grandma to make it, or Xiao Bao to make it. I can also learn to make it myself. I don't need you to make it for me."

The two looked away without saying a word.

Huo Chenzhou: "..."
