Marrying a rough chief, a cold diplomat gave birth to three babies

Chapter 243 Shen Tingyu's Past

Ruan Qingge's words only caused a little ripple in Shen Tingyu's heart, but it disappeared after a while.

She can't be so selfish.

Besides, Qin Zhan probably no longer has that intention towards her.

I let go of my past self because I wasn’t good enough and didn’t deserve it.

After the wedding ceremony, Shen Tingyu went to the kitchen and told the waiters to start serving the dishes. They had been trained on how to set up the table beforehand, and Shen Tingyu personally watched over it to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Qin Zhan was there too. He stared at Shen Tingyu intently. The affection in his eyes was so strong that Shen Tingyu didn't know what to do with his hands and feet.

After the waiter served all the dishes, Shen Tingyu saw Qin Zhan still standing, so he said, "The dishes are ready. If you are tired, go and have a rest. I will do the rest of the work."

Qin Zhan just looked at Shen Tingyu without moving. Shen Tingyu knew that he was stubborn, so she went into the kitchen to pack up.

There were footsteps behind him. Qin Zhan walked to Shen Tingyu and gently took the knife from her hand. When he touched her hand, Shen Tingyu quickly withdrew as if she had been electrocuted.

Qin Zhan concealed the disappointment in his eyes, cleaned the knives and put them away one by one: "I'll do these things, Tingyu, you also go to the banquet. I know you are also a friend of the newcomers. Leave the kitchen to me, you can rest assured."

Being in the same space with Qin Zhan, Shen Tingyu felt her heartbeat was too fast. The air was filled with Qin Zhan's scent. She couldn't pretend to ignore it. The temptation of adult Qin Zhan was too great for her. She left in a hurry: "Okay, thank you for your hard work here."

Shen Tingyu went back to the dressing room, took off her apron, changed her clothes and went to the wedding banquet hall. The newlyweds had already started toasting.

Watching Shen Tingyu leaving as quickly as possible, Qin Zhan's heart was torn again.

After so many years, he finally saw her again. Learning that she was single, he found ways to become the chef of her private restaurant, thinking that he could get close to her and maybe there was still a possibility between them.

He was naive.

Even after divorce, Shen Tingyu is still the young lady of the Shen family who has the support of her parents.

There has always been a world of difference between her and him.

Qin Zhan smiled bitterly.

Shen Tingyu arrived at the banquet, sat next to Ruan Qingge, teasing the child, absent-minded.

Ruan Qingge took a glance and it was rare to see Shen Tingyu like this. It was probably that something happened between him and Qin Zhan in the kitchen. It was a bit subtle.

"Sister Tingyu, why don't you be brave for once and follow your heart? Whether a relationship succeeds or not is an explanation for your youth."

Shen Tingyu looked up, with bitterness in his eyes: "Pigeon, if you were me, would you choose to be together?"

Ruan Qingge thought for a while before answering: "Yes, I don't want to have too many regrets in life. Besides, how do you know that you can't finish it in this lifetime if you don't try?"

"let me think again."

Ruan Qingge: "I think you should have a good talk with Qin Zhan."

From the look in Qin Zhan's eyes when he looked at Shen Tingyu, one could tell that the man loved this woman.

But whether he can withstand the gossips from people around him will depend on time.

Shen Tingyu was a bit of a tortoise: "Let's talk about it later."

After the wedding banquet, Ruan Qingge and the others went back, and Shen Tingyu went back to the kitchen. The wedding banquet was not over for them, as the table and dishes had to be cleaned up, and many things had to be put away.

Seeing that Shen Tingyu was working hard, Qin Zhan asked her to go and rest. If she was confident about the work here, she could let him do it.

"I'm not worried. You're so steady in your work."

The private restaurant hired a total of six employees. Qin Zhan was enough to cut vegetables and cook, and Shen Tingyu would also come over every afternoon.

She was at the dessert shop in the morning. Qin Zhan knew that she worked very hard and was worried that her body couldn't take it.

"I'll watch over the people in the store, you go to your room and take a rest."

This courtyard house was previously purchased by Ruan Qingge and renovated into a private restaurant. A rest room was left at the back for the convenience of accommodation for people working in the restaurant.

"No, I didn't do anything today."

Shen Tingyu stayed in the kitchen to clean up with everyone. In fact, Qin Zhan had almost finished cleaning up.

His cooking habits are similar to Shen Tingyu's. Qin Zhan is actually the grandson of Master Shen Tingyu. Qin Zhan's grandfather is an excellent cook. When he was young, he learned the skill from a chef who worked as a royal chef in the palace. However, as the world changed, his life became increasingly impoverished.

At that time, the Shen family asked his grandfather to cook, and Shen Tingyu also learned some cooking skills.

Once, Qin Zhan went to Shen's house to visit his grandfather, and Shen Tingyu got to know Qin Zhan.

Later, when the movement began, the Shen family dismissed Qin Zhan's grandfather.

When Qin Zhan's grandfather left the Shen family, he left a lot of recipes for Shen Tingyu. Shen Tingyu learned from them and figured it out on his own, which led to his current cooking skills.

Later, Shen Tingyu and Qin Zhan met again in high school and fell in love with each other, but Shen Tingyu did not say it out loud.

Qin Zhan braved the rain to express his feelings, but before the two of them could say anything, they were noticed by Shen's father, who finally interrupted them.

Shen Tingyu still feels a little painful when she thinks about these things now, but she doesn't want Qin Zhan to suffer the same pain.

Qin Zhan finished his work and poured Shen Tingyu a cup of hot drink, which contained white fungus and red dates that he had carefully cooked. "Drink some, it will warm you up."

"Thank you."

Qin Zhan looked at Shen Tingyu: "You're welcome. You never have to say thank you to me."

In fact, Qin Zhan knew that Shen Tingyu was not doing well. He had been keeping track of her, but Shen Tingyu didn't know.

Shen Tingyu lowered his head, took small sips, and felt warm in his heart.

The two didn't speak again. When Shen Tingyu and Qin Zhan met again, he knew that his grandfather had passed away. Now Qin Zhan was alone and had not married.

Now he is almost thirty years old and has lost the youthfulness of his youth. Shen Tingyu once imagined whether Qin Zhan would be very handsome when he grows up. Now Qin Zhan is indeed very good-looking, so good that she is not worthy of him.

"How was today's wedding?" Qin Zhan took the initiative to speak.

"The newlyweds are very satisfied, and the guests also think the food is delicious. Your cooking skills have improved rapidly over the years."

After the reunion, Qin Zhan did not talk about his experiences in the past few years. He only said that his grandfather had passed away and he was unmarried. Shen Tingyu wanted to ask other questions, but he was not qualified to ask.

Qin Zhan stared at Shen Tingyu and said, "Well, I have been practicing hard for more than ten years, hoping that one day I can cook a meal for you."

He wanted to see Shen Tingyu's eyes, but Shen Tingyu kept her head down. He was worried that his recklessness would scare her, so he could only test her step by step.

When he learned that Shen Tingyu was going to open a private restaurant, he became interested, quit his original job and came to apply.

In fact, Shen Tingyu was very hesitant at first, but it was Ruan Qingge who persuaded her.

Shen Tingyu: "Where have you been all these years?"

Qin Zhan: "Do you want to listen? If you want to listen, I'll tell you. If you don't want to listen, forget it."

I guess Shen Tingyu doesn't want to know about his past.

The two were silent, and Shen Tingyu finally said, "I'm sorry, I apologize for what my father did. That was not my intention."

Qin Zhan: "I know."

How can a girl like her rebel against her family?

He knew it all, and he hated himself for not being capable at the beginning and hated the injustice of the world. However, when he learned that Shen Tingyu was not living well and was divorced, Qin Zhan's heart, which had been silent for more than ten years, began to stir again.
