What matters isn't the expensive gifts but the companionship you can offer when they need it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai gave a bitter smile, \"But I can't let Nuannuan make decisions lightly, this is a big deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's up to you, the father. As children grow up, they will inevitably face these situations. You have your considerations as a parent, but you also have to consider from the child's perspective. There are some gaps between you and your daughters, but I think the appearance of this young man is a good opportunity to bridge those gaps.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grandmother spoke earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai also nodded for a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, Xu Musen brought the dishes to the table, all of them were homely, but complete with color, aroma, and taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai too was surprised by his cooking skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dish of sweet and sour ribs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nannan was happily eating, her little mouth shiny with grease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan picked up a rib and almost instinctively tried to give it to Xu Musen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Musen cleared his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle An, my cooking skills are limited to a few home-style dishes, please try some.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Xu Musen gently touched An Nuannuan's arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan blinked and placed the rib she was holding into the eager hands of her father beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, try this, Xu Musen's cooking is really tasty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Nuannuan offered the food to her father, but the tone of her voice was proud as if boasting about her man's capabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah, alright, I'll try it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai nodded, he had seen Xu Musen's subtle gesture and felt a bit uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he also acknowledged the thoughtful little act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And eating the food his daughter offered washed away some of his sourness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, not bad. It's rare for a guy to be able to cook such good dishes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai commented as he nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm glad you like it, and when there's a chance, I will try other cuisines for you to sample.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Musen answered humbly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to An Shanhai's ears, these words seemed a bit awkward no matter how he listened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when he said that, An Nuannuan and An Nannan's eyes sparkled, eager to get their father's agreement on his behalf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a father, he felt a bit melancholy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if he had complimented a street racer, telling him his racing skills weren't bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the street racer said, given the chance, he'd take his daughter out racing every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it would have been one thing if only Nuannuan had reacted, but seeing Nannan get excited too was just too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Shanhai looked at Xu Musen, surrounded by his two daughters, one on each side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the taste of the ribs in his mouth wasn't appealing at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine, fine, so I'm the only \"outsider\" in this house, huh?\u003C\u002Fp>",1543,"2026-06-06T13:36:44.620Z",1,"novelbin.me","7cdef64489a75cb0f57170c8f64d85a7b69624078a4b41b86d13df9fc8b704ed","after-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-chapter-341","after-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-chapter-339",1091,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-cover.jpg"]
