If grandma were not here today, there would be at least three people who would be hungry after this meal.
While grandma was eating the food, she looked at Li Chenghao and Li Chenghao who had already finished three glasses of wine.
"Eat some food first, drink wine slowly"
With that said, grandma gave Li Chenghao a piece of beef.
Iu tried to stop her grandma from caring, mainly because she didn't know whether Li Chenghao would accept the food given to him. If he had any mysophobia, the atmosphere would be even more embarrassing.
However
Li Chenghao calmly picked up the chopsticks and ate the beef his grandma gave him.
This is not over yet
Looking at iu's mother sitting diagonally opposite, Li Chenghao actually gave a thumbs up: "The food cooked by my aunt is really delicious."
What cooks love most is to hear positive praise from diners.
iu's mother did not deliberately hide her happiness. She imitated her grandma and gave Li Chenghao a chopstick dish: "If it's delicious, eat more and try this braised pork ribs."
Li Chenghao held the bowl with both hands and took the ribs from iu's mother. He took a big bite and finally let iu's family see his smile: "The ribs are also delicious."
I don’t know if it was because Li Chenghao smiled, but the somewhat depressing atmosphere at the dinner table instantly dissipated.
Iu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his mother's happy expression and his father's relaxed brows.
That boy Lee Jong-hoon should continue to be in his current state, just don't say a word about eating.
Grandma's eyes were always on Li Chenghao. Seeing that he was eating deliciously, she kept nodding and saying: "My daughter-in-law is good at living in the living room and in the kitchen. She is also beautiful and has a very kind heart."
iu's mother was a little shy after being praised.
Grandma said again: "Young man, you eat so well. You are a child who understands etiquette, which is very good."
Iu didn't understand the meaning of grandma's words and took a sneak look at Li Chenghao. He really enjoyed the food, but he didn't look like he was gobbling it down.
We ate happily for about ten minutes, and drank about a bottle and a half of soju. iu's father asked Li Jongxun to get two more bottles from the refrigerator, and asked Li Chenghao: "How's your drinking capacity?"
Putting down his chopsticks and wiping his mouth with a tissue, Li Chenghao answered honestly: "I haven't calculated it. I usually drink more foreign wine."
"Then you must have a good drinking capacity. Today is a rare opportunity to have dinner together, so let's have a good drink."
Li Chenghao did not refuse and nodded: "Okay, uncle."
Iu said with some worry: "Dad, please drink less. Chenghao has a lot of work tomorrow."
Seeing that his daughter started to openly protect her boyfriend, the father was a little jealous.
Li Chenghao replied directly: "It doesn't matter, tomorrow's work schedule has been moved to the day after tomorrow."
IU couldn't believe this fact. She tugged on Li Chenghao's clothes under the table and whispered: "Did you really change your schedule?"
Li Chenghao tilted his head and leaned into IU's ear: "I will prepare countermeasures in advance for anything I do."
The scene of the two whispering was seen by the family as a show of affection.
iu's father coughed twice to attract attention and picked up the wine glass: "Since we don't have work tomorrow, let's drink slowly tonight."
Grandma also started to assist at this time: "Zhien's father hasn't drank like this for a long time. You just drink slowly."
half an hour later
After finishing the meal, Lee Jong-hoon apologized and left the table.
Grandma couldn't eat anymore, so she sat with her for a while and then said she would go to her room to rest first.
iu's mother and iu helped grandma to the room together.
Only iu's father and Li Chenghao are left.
After pouring another glass of wine, iu's father raised the glass and asked Li Chenghao: "What kind of person do you think our Zhien is?"
After the toast, Li Chenghao poured wine for IU's father and said, "Ji-eun is a very kind-hearted person, polite, hard-working, and a very talented singer."
iu's father agreed with Li Chenghao's words and nodded: "These are very similar to her mother, what else?"
besides?
Li Chenghao was suddenly speechless and his mind was racing.
"She looks pretty, has a gentle personality, and her acting skills are pretty good."
iu's father was stunned.
I'm not so sure about what I said next, except for the fact that my acting skills are very good, and it's really convincing.
"Then do you think she has shortcomings?"
Just talking
Iu and her mother just returned to the restaurant and heard what Li Chenghao said next.
"What are the shortcomings? She always thinks about unrealistic things, her thoughts are too simple, and sometimes she behaves like a primary school student. She attaches too much importance to feelings and is easily taken advantage of. She is not confident and is greedy for money..."
What Li Chenghao said was smooth, but iu's father couldn't find a reason to refute it, because the shortcomings Li Chenghao mentioned were true in iu.
iu's mother was worried that iu would be too emotional and that she would make the same mistakes as herself, so all the money iu earned was given to her mother.
Feeling a sense of resentment drifting over, he turned his head and Li Chenghao looked at Iu who was standing in front of the restaurant.
He cleared his throat, picked up the wine glass and had a drink with iu's father. After finishing the drink, Li Chenghao sat on the chair calmly and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will protect her when I'm around her. I can accept her shortcomings."
.”
Did Li Chenghao take the initiative to express his position before the temptation reached this point?
Being able to accept the shortcomings of the other party, not to mention 100%, 99% is only possible on the basis of feelings.
In this way, Li Chenghao is not the kind of playboy who just wants to play with his daughter.
iu sat back next to Li Chenghao and whispered: "Accept my shortcomings?"
Li Chenghao ignored iu, picked up the wine glass and continued drinking with iu's father.
When I got tipsy, my father talked more and more.
From how the chaebols started to accumulate capital in his era, to the negative interest rate loan support they received from banks, and then to the difficult living conditions of ordinary families after the financial crisis, he talked about the recent changes in the international market.
Li Chenghao thought that iu's father was engaged in the financial investment industry and his analysis was very clear and logical.
It turns out that this happens every time I drink because I talk too much with my friends.
The only difference is that iu's father asked some questions about Li Chenghao's family and learned about Li Chenghao's hobbies.
When the food on the table was cold, iu's mother and iu took it to the kitchen to heat it up.
It was served from about six o'clock until eleven o'clock.
iu's father, who was still unsatisfied, dragged Li Chenghao to go outside to continue drinking.
iu's mother apologized for her husband's gaffe. Li Chenghao spoke normally, but his eyes were a little blurry.
iu's father was helped back to his room to rest.
IU followed Li Chenghao for fear that he would suddenly lose his balance and fall to the ground.
Mom took out the packaged side dishes and handed them to Iu: "Send Cheng Hao home safely and put these side dishes in his refrigerator, okay?"
"You know mom, I'm not a child anymore."
Seeing iu helping Li Chenghao put on his shoes at the entrance, iu's mother reminded him: "Don't go out drinking, I'll wait for you to come home." This chapter has been completed!
