My buildings have attributes

"Don't worry, absolutely not. I love you for who you are, not for your looks. Besides, wouldn't you be even cuter if you gained weight? And if you get old, I'll get old too. You'll definitely have a different kind of charm when you're seventy or eighty," Chen Ling said firmly.

"Hmph! You're quite the smooth talker, but it's still quite pleasant to hear," Li Lili said with a smile.

At this moment, Chen Ling suddenly said to Li Lili very seriously, "Ningxue, don't worry, I will never despise you in my life. I will definitely be with you in the future and always stay by your side."

"Okay, I'll remember what you said. You're not allowed to reply like that again." Li Lili said with a smile.

"How are Mom and Dad doing now?" Li Lili turned to Chen Ling and asked.

"Huh? I don't know either, they're probably still arguing. But they're an old married couple, no need to worry," Chen Ling said with a smile.

By this time, Mr. and Mrs. Chen had already stopped arguing in the living room and had returned to their room to go to sleep.

"Let me tell you, you need to practice this game more from now on," Mr. Chen said.

"I understand. Then please teach me more in the future. I'll leave my skills to you," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

At this moment, Mr. Chen excitedly said, "Okay, okay, I'll take care of it."

I don't know what method Chen's mother used to make Chen's father's attitude change so quickly.

"I'm going to take a shower and go to bed," Mrs. Chen said happily to Mr. Chen.

Then I saw Chen's mother stride towards the bathroom, in a really good mood.

However, at this moment, Mr. Chen also had a smile on his face.

Chapter 361 Eating Alone

Night fell quickly and went quickly. In the blink of an eye, dawn broke.

"Xiaoxue, Chen Ling, wake up," Chen's mother said, knocking on the door.

“Okay, Mom,” Li Lili and Chen Ling said in unison.

"It's not time yet, Mom, why are you up so early?" Li Lili said after glancing at the alarm clock beside her.

"I don't know either," Chen Ling said, shaking his head immediately.

Despite their uncertainty, they started getting dressed and preparing to get up. Soon, Chen Ling and Li Lili were ready and came to the living room.

"Mom, why are you waking us up so early?" Chen Ling asked his mother.

"It's not good for Xiaoxue to eat right after she gets up, so you should all get up early, have a glass of water first, and then eat," Chen's mother explained.

"Has my dad already gone downstairs?" Chen Ling asked again.

"Yes, they went down again," Chen's mother said quickly after hearing this.

There was no way around it; Mr. Chen was just that kind of self-disciplined person. He insisted on exercising every day, rain or shine.

"Alright," Chen Ling said calmly.

Then Li Lili poured two glasses of water for Chen Ling and her.

Soon, Mr. Chen returned home, and Mrs. Chen had already prepared breakfast.

"Mom, this is too bland." Chen Ling was immediately surprised when he saw the breakfast his mother brought over, and then he began to say.

“Oh, Xiaoxue didn’t ask you to look at the recipe, I just followed the recipe.” Chen’s mother began.

All that could be seen in the food that Chen's mother brought was radish.

"Mom, could you cook two meals from now on, one for Ningxue and one for us?" Chen Ling asked again.

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother immediately and firmly stated, "Impossible."

"Mom, am I still your son? How can you treat me like this? It's one thing if you don't care about me, but look at Dad. He's so thin from hunger. Aren't you going to give him some nourishment?" Chen Ling hurriedly pulled his father for support and said anxiously.

"Don't worry about your dad, this is all something your dad and I discussed. This is very nutritious for him, didn't you see? There are boiled eggs here, so it's got enough nutrition," Mrs. Chen said with a smile.

"Ah~" Then Chen Ling's painful scream was heard.

“Son, I think your mother did a great job. This recipe is really nutritious. Your mother and I have already studied it. Just accept it and eat it without worry. Besides, it’s pretty good. Don’t be so pessimistic.” At this moment, Mr. Chen quickly advised Chen Ling.

"Oh," Chen Ling replied casually.

Not long after, Chen Ling and Li Lili finished breakfast and prepared to go to the company.

"Ningxue, I'm so hungry," Chen Ling said to Li Lili with a troubled expression. "I know I'm sorry you've had to go through this. Make sure you eat something good for lunch," Li Lili said to Chen Ling with a smile.

"And what about you?" Chen Ling asked.

"I'll do as Mom says and have porridge. She said the food outside isn't clean and she doesn't want me to eat fried food. She insisted on cooking for me and bringing it over, but I stopped her," Li Lili said with a smile.

Chen Ling was deeply moved after hearing this.

“I think you’re the real biological son,” Chen Ling said, turning to Li Lili.

"Haha." Li Lili, who was standing nearby, laughed and said.

"Let me tell you, I was initially worried that the diet my mom made for me would make me gain weight, but it seems I won't," Li Lili said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling immediately said, "Won't you lose weight if you keep doing this?"

"No, Mom's menu is indeed very nutritious and includes meat dishes, but they're all served at lunchtime. We have to go to work, so we don't have a chance to eat them," Li Lili quickly explained on behalf of Chen's mother.

"Never mind, I'll eat more at noon without them on my back," Chen Ling said quickly.

"You're hogging all the food," Li Lili said to Chen Ling with a smile.

Then Chen Ling's laughter was heard. After he finished laughing, he said, "You're the one who told me to eat more at noon. You've already forgotten about it."

“I may say that, but you still eat all that food by yourself,” Li Lili continued.

"No, you want to eat with me, don't you?" Chen Ling suddenly realized the meaning behind Li Lili's words.

“Yes,” Li Lili said sweetly.

"Come on, don't eat yet. Mom specially prepared this for you to soothe your stomach. If you don't listen, she'll be heartbroken," Chen Ling advised Li Lili.

"Alright then. I won't be greedy anymore," Li Lili muttered to herself.

The two chatted like this, and before long they arrived at the company.

"Ningxue, why do you look pale?" Chen Mengyao asked Li Lili.

"Oh, no, I don't think so," Li Lili asked, touching her cheek.

“Yes, there are some,” Chen Mengyao continued.

"I don't know either, maybe I didn't get enough rest," Li Lili said casually.

"What did you eat yesterday? How's your stomach-soothing plan going?" Chen Mengyao asked curiously.

"This recipe is pretty good, it's all vegetarian, but Chen Ling can't quite handle it," Li Lili said with a smile.

"Haha, I can imagine. He's a carnivore, how could he stand eating only meat? He'd feel uncomfortable all over." Chen Mengyao said with a laugh.

"Yes, so I'm planning to eat a lot at lunchtime," Li Lili said with a smile.

So, by noon, Chen Ling indeed ordered a lot of takeout.

All the takeout orders were meat dishes.

"Big plate chicken, crispy fried pork, braised pork..."

Seeing this table full of dishes, you can tell how much Chen Ling loves meat.

Chen Ling had already arranged to have lunch with Liu Yuyang.

At that moment, Liu Yuyang pushed the door open and came in.

"Brother, how much food did you order? That's too extravagant. Even if you're rich, you can't be this lavish. There's absolutely no need for the two of us to eat so much, especially since it's all meat. Won't you get tired of it?" Liu Yuyang said in surprise when he came in and saw the table full of meat dishes.

"You don't understand my life right now. I don't eat anything at home, and it's rare for me to have lunch at the company, so of course I have to eat more," Chen Ling quickly explained.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang was filled with surprise, wondering how long Chen Ling had been starving.

Chapter 362 Killing Two Birds with One Stone

Liu Yuyang stood quietly to the side, watching Chen Ling without making a move to sit down. Then Chen Ling asked Liu Yuyang, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you come and eat?"

"Oh, eat up, eat up!" Liu Yuyang quickly said. Chen Ling was seen eating the meat with gusto, muttering "Delicious."

"Boss, I have a suggestion for you," Liu Yuyang said to Chen Ling.

"What is it?" Chen Ling asked while eating. "I think that for the sake of our company's development and the relationships between employees, we could hold a team-building activity this week," Liu Yuyang said.

"No, I think you have ulterior motives. What are you trying to achieve by talking about this?" Chen Ling said with a smile.

"Look at you, you really can't hide anything from me. I just wanted to take advantage of this event to strengthen our relationship. Besides, team building activities are really beneficial for our group. It's a win-win situation," Liu Yuyang said firmly.

Just then, Chen Ling said, "You know what, I was just thinking about this too. We haven't had a team-building activity in a long time. So, how about this, I'll leave this to you." "Okay, boss, I guarantee I'll complete the task."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuyang immediately began to speak. "Oh, and also, are you going to be eating and drinking like this in the office from now on?"

"Yes, but isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Chen Ling asked casually.

"It's nothing bad, it just gave us a fright," Liu Yuyang said with a smile after hearing this.

Chen Ling quickly said, "No, I think Ningxue actually has some objections."

"You mean Goddess Shen? Maybe she is. But she eats such bland food outside, while you're eating and drinking so much here. It's definitely not appropriate for her," Liu Yuyang nodded and said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling pouted and, looking at all the delicious food in front of him, said, "Alright then, I won't eat these anymore." After saying this, Chen Ling's face was full of reluctance.

However, at this moment, Liu Yuyang began to laugh and said, "Boss, it's not that serious, it's not that serious."

Then they saw Chen Ling glaring fiercely at Liu Yuyang.

"Boss, don't glare at me like that. I'm getting scared and my back is getting cold," Liu Yuyang said calmly.

"How are things between you and Chen Mengyao now?" Chen Ling asked.

"What else can we do? We're just normal colleagues. But things are a bit better than before. We didn't contact each other at night before, but now we keep in touch a little more." Liu Yuyang said this with a hint of sadness in his voice.

"Oh, things are much better than before. Don't rush things, take it slow," Chen Ling said with a smile.

Liu Yuyang is now fully aware of his relationship with Chen Mengyao. He knows he hurt Chen Mengyao before. So he's already quite content that they've developed a normal working relationship. The rest, naturally, depends on his future actions.

So Chen Ling and Liu Yuyang chatted about other things for a while, and soon it was time for work. Liu Yuyang then prepared to go back to work.

However, after Liu Yuyang passed by, Chen Ling quickly got into work mode.
