My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 729

Chapter 729 That Is Another Matter

Of course, Tang Jing could not let Feng Jialing leave just like that. After all, she did not purposely rush back from Livingsfill because she missed Ouyang Qi and wanted to see him. Instead, her true main objective was to meet Feng Jialing.

As for Tang Jing’s motive for doing so, it was, naturally, to interact with Feng Jialing more and have the latter get to know her. In fact, it would be better if they could get close. From there, she would develop their relationship and be deeply involved in the mother-and-son duo’s life. Thus, all her efforts would be wasted if Feng Jialing left.

At that thought, Tang Jing hurriedly said, “Mrs. Ouyang, did I do something wrong? Please go ahead and scold me if I’ve upset you. It is my great honor that you’ve come to stay in this shabby place of mine. I’d offered to prepare a meal for you because you are Qing’s mother. Ouyang Qing and I were schoolmates. In fact, we were best pals back in school. We’re still great friends even after we reunited with each other. She’s unlucky to be set up by the Nan family and is serving a prison sentence. I’m even planning to visit her tomorrow. If you don’t like having me here, I’ll leave now.”

With that, she picked up her bag and got ready to leave. “What’s going on? Why is everyone leaving? What’s wrong with letting Tang Jing make us a meal and enjoy it together?” Ouyang Qi hurriedly voiced.

It was no doubt that Tang Jing was incredible. As soon as she realized Feng Jialing was upset, she quickly put on a humbler attitude and even brought up Ouyang Qing’s matters.

Since Feng Jialing had always adored her second daughter, she would surely waver if Ouyang Qing’s name was mentioned.

Initially, Tang Jing’s plan did not include visiting Ouyang Qing, but she decided to lie to win Feng Jialing’s heart.

As expected, her trick worked. “You’re going to visit Qing? In that case, I’ll buy some stuff tomorrow. Please help me give them to her,” Feng Jialing said.

The older woman then turned to her son and chided, “Learn from Ms. Tang, Ouyang Qi. Even Qing’s friend could think of visiting Qing. What about you? I bet that has never crossed your mind.”

“Thank you so much, Ms. Tang. Please go ahead and start cooking. We can talk more later. Now that you mention you’re Qing’s friend, I’m starting to see some similarities between you two…” All of a sudden, she behaved like a drama queen, her voice becoming tearful.

No one knew if she was acting or if the sight of Tang Jing made her feel melancholy and recall her daughter.

“Don’t be sad, Mrs. Ouyang. Let’s think of a way to reduce Qing’s sentence. But first, you have to take good care of your health. We must let Qing see you in a healthy state when she’s released.”

Feng Jialing was deeply touched by Tang Jing’s words, and she was beginning to think more fondly of her.

“Please get some rest while I cook. By the way, what dishes do you like? I can run to the supermarket downstairs to get the ingredients if I don’t have them,” Tang Jing asked.

“Oh, I’m fine with anything. Just cook whatever you want. Thank you again. Ouyang Qi, help Ms. Tang out,” Feng Jialing replied.

When Ouyang Qi followed Tang Jing to the kitchen, he gave her a thumbs up. “You’re amazing! My mom’s already begun to like you.”

However, Tang Jing could not help but wonder if she had gone overboard and made him think she was the kind of person who had an agenda for everything she did.

“I mean it when I say I want to cook for your mom, but your family is rich, and rich people are the pickiest eaters. I’m afraid I can’t cook anything I want just because your mom said so. Tell me. What does she like? I don’t want to make something that doesn’t suit her palate,” she said.

Ouyang Qi thought for a moment and answered, “Well, she doesn’t like spicy food. Oh, she doesn’t eat meat at all.”

Tang Jing immediately understood the reason behind it. “Right. That’s because she wants to keep her skin healthy. Anything else? What does she like?”

He then thought long and hard. “She likes steamed sweet potatoes. It’s a dish that she always orders when we go out for meals in the past.”

“I have to get some sweet potatoes then. I’ll be right back,” she said in a hurry.
