Chapter 944 - Finale (16)

Li Beinian chuckled, looking most satisfied.

Everyone fell silent.

How street-smart!

But, could a man like Mu Xichen really cook?

Nico thought to wait and see.

They’d get an answer soon enough.

Mu Xichen prepared a lot of food, it was a meal enough for five to six people.

Although he used a simple method of cooking, the food smelled very different from the usual food one could buy outside.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

One had to admit, the aroma was appealing.

The man looked at the bowl of noodles that had been served up, then glanced towards Li Beinian.

Her serving was separate from the rest, it had been set aside for flavoring, and had a heavy dose of vinegar in it. There were bits of red chili floating in the soup.

Seeing how much the girl was enjoying the food, Nico took a bite and found... it was actually not bad?

He took two more mouthfuls, and noted that although the taste was simple and light, it was actually quite fragrant.

He was extremely surprised.

Being a soldier and a businessman, Mu Xichen actually had good culinary skills as well. Such a man... was really suitable for his daughter.

His daughter deserved to be treated like a princess and doted on.

Obviously, Mu Xichen was able to do this.

Nico was very relieved.

However, having taken two bites of the food, he put the bowl down.

Well, he preferred more exquisite dishes.

Although this simple noodle dish was quite delicious, it did not really suit the taste of a British aristocrat like him.

Nico quietly changed the topic and went to the living room to chat with Dylan.

Dylan had just returned from the meeting with Lin Ya and it had been a very fruitful trip.

After Dylan told him everything, Nico understood and chuckled. “He’d been putting on an act for so many years... I’ve really underestimated this uncle of mine.”

Will also heard it all very clearly and asked, “Do we need to take remove Mr. Robor’s authority in the company?”

“No.” Nico already had a plan and continued, “Let’s wait for a while. I have my ways.”

Dylan understood Nico’s capabilities and wasn’t too worried about this. However, he looked rather concerned now and said, “Sir, Miss Beinian seems a little arrogant and willful. Furthermore, with her temper, it will be difficult for her to fit into the Rothschild family. Have you really decided to hand over the inheritance to her?”

As soon as Dylan said this, Will, who had always been good-tempered, glared at him coldly.

Dylan was a little stunned. He looked at Will and said, “Isn’t it so?”

Nico didn’t look too thrilled and said to Dylan with a rare tone of displeasure, “Are you saying that my daughter is no good?”

Dylan had been serving Nico for many years, so he naturally wanted to hear an answer.

However, precisely because he had served Nico for many years, Dylan understood what Nico needed. A girl like Li Beinian was indeed not suitable for the Rothschild family.

If she were to come into such a family, she could very well get into trouble all the time unknowingly.

Under Will’s and Nico’s gazes, Dylan braced himself and said, “It’s not that Miss Beinian isn’t good, it’s because she’s too good. She looks innocent and adorable, but in the Rothschild family, such a personality... isn’t a good thing.”

Nico’s coldness dissipated a little. Then, he said, “I don’t need her to go back and be my successor.”

Dylan was taken aback. “What?”

“The Rothschild family is too big. It’s too tiring to manage.” Nico sighed. “She’s used to her current life. As her father, why would I upset the peaceful life she’s living now?”
