Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Giving Haute Couture to Silu

In the time that followed, Lu Fan waited in the presidential suite for the three girls to come back with the lemons.

Honestly, this was the kind of small task that Chen He could have handled.

But Jiang Silu said she wanted to pick out the lemons herself, to make it more meaningful.

So Lu Fan let them do as they pleased.

As he waited, he found himself smiling unconsciously.

It had been a long time since he’d felt this happy.

He could only recall a few times he’d felt this way.

One was on his wedding night with Jiang Yixia.

Another was when he successfully earned his first million.

He couldn’t remember any after that.

After all, his threshold for happiness kept getting higher, and very few things could truly make him happy anymore.

But now, here he was, sitting on the sofa, waiting for a glass of lemon water.

A "Scumbag Lemon Water" made by his own daughter’s hands.

The name just wasn’t very flattering.

But that didn’t matter.

As long as he got to drink the lemon water, who cared if he was a scumbag or not?

Besides, he wasn’t the first person to call him a scumbag.

Before long, Jiang Silu and the others returned.

Not only did they have lemons, but they had also bought some snacks.

"Uncle Lu, we’re back!" It had to be said that Lu Yao played the role of the icebreaker in Lu Fan and Jiang Silu’s relationship.

Sometimes Jiang Silu was too shy to speak, and Lu Yao would be the one to chime in and keep the conversation going.

Lu Fan knew that Jiang Silu’s roommate, Lu Yao, seemed a bit materialistic, cozying up to whoever came from a wealthy family.

But this straightforward nature of hers made it hard to dislike her.

It was much better than people who were two-faced.

Those were the most disgusting kind of people.

Lu Fan smiled. "Besides lemons, what else did you buy?"

"We also bought some oden," Lu Yao explained. "Lulu bought a portion for you too."

Jiang Silu, blushing slightly, walked forward and placed Lu Fan’s portion of oden on the table, saying softly, "I don’t know if you’ll like it. It’s okay if you don’t."

"I love it, of course I do." Lu Fan laughed. "You don’t know this, but your mom and I used to love buying oden from a street stall. She would always steal mine."

Hearing Lu Fan talk about the past, Jiang Silu grew curious.

She really wanted to hear stories about her mom and dad’s past.

Because Jiang Yixia had never talked about it before.

She rarely mentioned anything about her father.

Jiang Yixia would only say a few words when Silu insisted on hearing about him.

But right now, she had to make the lemon water, so she went to the bar counter and started slicing lemons.

Naturally, Lu Yao and Song Miaomiao couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. They joined Jiang Silu.

One helped wash while the other helped slice the lemons.

Watching Jiang Silu diligently slicing the lemons, Lu Fan couldn’t help but marvel at how beautiful his daughter was.

Although Lu Yao and Song Miaomiao were also considered pretty by college standards, when the three girls stood together, it was immediately obvious that Jiang Silu was the most beautiful one.

Thinking of this, Lu Fan mused to himself, ’Yixia and I have some great genes. Both our son and daughter are so good-looking.’

Just as he was admiring his own handiwork, Jiang Silu walked over to him.

She was holding a glass of lemon water, and she looked at Lu Fan with a blush. "It might be a little sour..."

"That’s fine, I love sour drinks." Lu Fan smiled, took the glass, and took a big gulp.

The moment he swallowed, his eyes widened slightly.

Then he finished swallowing and said with a smile, "This is delicious."

"Really?!" Hearing this from a short distance away, Lu Yao eagerly poured herself a glass.

But not two seconds after taking a sip, a pained expression appeared on her face. "Whoa, this is pretty sour."

Hearing that, Jiang Silu asked awkwardly, "Is it that sour?"

Then she tried a sip herself and found that it was indeed quite tart and zesty.

But Lu Fan just chuckled. "It’s not sour. I actually really like it. Is there more? Can I get another glass?"

Seeing how much Lu Fan liked it, Jiang Silu felt a little happy.

So she poured a full glass and handed it to Lu Fan. "There’s a lot left. If you like it, you can have more..."

"Great."

Lu Fan smiled as he took the full glass of lemon water. He took a sip and praised Jiang Silu, "It really is delicious. If you have time in the future, you can make me a couple more glasses."

"Okay." Jiang Silu was secretly delighted by the praise.

After all, receiving praise from her father was a form of self-validation.

Just then, Lu Fan took out his phone and said to Jiang Silu, "I’m going to step out to take a call." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

With that, he took his glass and walked out of the presidential suite while on the phone.

Watching his retreating back, Jiang Silu thought to herself, ’Since Dad likes it so much, I’ll make some more.’

So she turned to Lu Yao and Song Miaomiao and asked, "Yaoyao, Miaomiao, how many lemons are left?"

"There are still four or five," Song Miaomiao explained.

"Why don’t we slice them all and make more lemon water?" Jiang Silu suggested.

Lu Yao was a little surprised. "This lemon water is pretty sour, you know. Are you sure you want to slice so many more?"

"It’s fine... My dad likes it," Jiang Silu said in a small voice.

Meanwhile, after walking out of the presidential suite, Lu Fan looked at the glass of lemon water in his hand and ended up drinking more than half of it.

With a small amount left, he looked at Chen He behind him and said, "Here, help me finish this."

Chen He was a bit puzzled. "Boss, isn’t this the lemon water the young miss made especially for you?"

"It’s your reward."

"Oh, sweet. Sure, I was getting a little thirsty anyway." Saying that, Chen He took Lu Fan’s glass and took a sip.
