Chapter 376: Chapter 365: The Little Surprise Prepared by Zhan Qipei

The scene shifted, and Qiao Jing and Su Manhan returned to Purple Garden.

Qiao Jing saw the chefs in the kitchen bustling around non-stop, probably preparing dinner.

“I can go over and help stir-fry a few dishes.”

Because Zhan Qipei had taken over the household chores, she hadn’t cooked for a long time and inexplicably felt an itch to do so.

Su Manhan refused Qiao Jing without hesitation.

“No, what if you get tired? Just sit and watch TV with me.”

Zhan Yao, who had been sitting on the sofa watching the news, stood up and vacated his seat upon hearing this.

“You guys watch.”

He deliberately changed the channel from the news and handed the remote to Su Manhan.

Su Manhan muttered under her breath.

“That’s more like it.”

Zhan Yao didn’t stay any longer, returning to the study.

Qiao Jing was pulled by Su Manhan to sit on the sofa, and the remote was stuffed into her hand.

She was startled and looked at Su Manhan.

Su Manhan enthusiastically pushed the fruit plate on the table in front of Qiao Jing.

“Eat some fruit, what drama do you want to watch?”

She was considering which of the recently premiered romance dramas were worth watching to recommend to Qiao Jing but decided to let her choose instead.

Qiao Jing shook her head and placed the remote back on the table.

“You watch.”

She was clueless about TV dramas, as she usually watched the news.

Su Manhan thought Qiao Jing was being shy and stuffed the remote back into her hand again.

“Choose whatever you want to watch, I don’t have any preferences.”

Then, Su Manhan silently watched as Qiao Jing switched back to the news channel.

Her expression grew complex; she had assumed that Qiao Jing, like most young people, would enjoy TV dramas, but it turned out that she actually wanted to watch the news.

she didn’t like the dull and flavorless news, her daughter-in-law wanted to watch it, so she had no choice but to sit by and watch the news on the screen with Qiao
