 Chapter 189: Someone wants to touch Third Master's Golden Nugget

Qin Jingcen and Qin Meiyin paused their movements upon hearing Qin Ruan's words.

The three of them stood frozen in place.

It was Qin Anguo who reacted first. He rubbed his eyes and stammered, "Okay, okay, I'll make it for you. I'll go to the kitchen now!"

He hurriedly walked towards the dining room, almost running away, not daring to let his daughter see his moist eyes.

"I'll go too," Qin Jingcen put aside his calculations and followed his father's footsteps.

Only Qin Mei hesitated and walked up to Qin Ruan.

She whispered, "Ruan Ruan, do you really want to eat it?"

Until today, he did not know that Qin Ruan had experienced being forced to eat hot tomato stewed beef at the orphanage.

Just by imagining it, he could imagine how painful it was.

With a nervous expression, Qin Mei softly spoke, "I want to eat the tomato stewed beef that you and father and elder brother made. I have eaten it before, and it was very delicious."

"You've eaten it?!" Qin Meiyin widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Yes, I have," Qin Ruan smiled without saying a word, her eyes curving upwards in a crescent shape.

"Could it be..." Qin Meiyin understood what had happened and looked incredulous.

The first time he and his father and elder brother made this dish, it was Han Xian who told them that it was the dish that their little sister liked the most.

After they made it and presented it to Qin Ruan, she was angry and threw it all on the ground without taking a single bite.

Even now, Qin Meiyin still remembered the disappointment and sense of loss he felt at that time.

Looking back now, he could only feel regret.

If Qin Ruan said she had eaten it, there was only one possibility.

Qin Mei didn't know what he had imagined, his eyes turned red, and he wanted to say something but couldn't utter a word.

"I'll go make it for you again!" He turned and rushed into the kitchen.

Qin Mei couldn't keep a secret and immediately told his father and elder brother about the conversation between Qin Ruan and him.

Inside the Qin family kitchen, three big men cooked while secretly wiping away tears.

...

Next door to the criminal investigation bureau was a tea house.

In a private room, Hou Yirong sat across from a man exuding a strong aura and righteous energy, the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Han.

The matter started at noon.

The six major families of Su, Nangong, and Xiao had not restrained themselves, and the Hou family was bound to take action.

Hou Yirong decided to meet with Lu Han and inquire about the Lu family's attitude towards the Xiao family before the Hou family took action. After all, the Xiao family and the Lu family were in-laws, and the Hou family had to inform the other three families before taking action, especially the Lu family.

Hou Chuan was tasked with inviting Lu Han to meet with them, but he didn't expect that Lu Han would take the initiative to meet with him today, and his attitude was quite urgent.

Only when they met did Hou Yirong find out that what Lu Han wanted to discuss with him was related to Qin Ruan.

Qin Ruan was currently a key protected person of the Hou family and was the golden cash cow of the three halls. Hou Yirong couldn't make any decisions regarding this matter.

Inside the antique private room.

Hou Yirong held a Qinghua porcelain teacup in his hand and calmly brought it to his lips, elegantly taking a sip.

The young man sitting across from him with an upright posture and handsome appearance couldn't sit still.

Lu Han occasionally glanced at the watch on his wrist, revealing a hint of urgency in his brows.

"Ding!"

The sound of a text message on Hou Yirong's phone rang out.

As if not hearing it, Hou Yirong blew on the tea in his cup and brought it to his lips again.

His arrogant and noble aura was unreservedly displayed from beginning to end, ignoring Lu Han completely.

There was no choice, as this person had specifically asked for him by name and surname to summon his younger siblings for questioning.

This was poking at his third younger brother's gun barrels.
