I Met The Female CEO While Escaping A Blind Date

Chapter 9: Complimented by Little Aunt

William Scott didn’t know what Larry Zion was thinking. He was busy introducing wild vegetables to Yvonne Shaw.

“Auntie, there are many types of wild vegetables. Look at this one. It looks like a cat’s paw. This wild vegetable is very tender. There’s also this one. It looks prickly, but the newly sprouted teeth are quite delicious.”

William Scott taught Yvonne Shaw how to identify wild vegetables that she did not know. Then, he chatted with her about food and nourishment.

“For wild vegetables like these, if they’re just eaten with some sauce or eaten fresh like this, it’s a bit of a waste.”

“Then what can I do to not waste it?”

“These wild vegetables actually have some medicinal properties. Just like these wild vegetables with thorns. If you add some White Peony and Wild Chinese Yam to make porridge, it can nourish the kidney and boost your energy, especially for men.”

Yvonne Shaw couldn’t help but feel a little awkward. It seemed like they shouldn’t be talking about this topic. However, William Scott immediately said, “There are also wild vegetables that look like cat paws. Coupled with some apples and pears, be it fruit salad or juices, they are good for beauty and to prevent aging.”

“Really?” Yvonne Shaw looked at William Scott skeptically.

William Scott smiled. “Auntie, this is just a side recipe. But I’ve really done some research in this area. I definitely won’t lie to you. Besides, these things don’t usually have any toxins. There’s absolutely no harm in trying them out.”

“Oh, you’re right. You really know a lot!”

Yvonne Shaw nodded. Now, she liked William Scott from the bottom of her heart. She thought that if William Scott’s identity as a soldier was confirmed, it would be good for her daughter to be with him!

William Scott smiled humbly. “Auntie, you’re flattering me. Sometimes, if you want to survive, you have to grasp all sorts of knowledge.”

Yvonne Shaw said admiringly, “No wonder you became the captain at such a young age.”

......

“That’s all in the past. I’ll work harder in the future.”

Although Larry Zion was fishing with Yoel Quinn, he kept glancing at William Scott from time to time. When he saw that William Scott and Yvonne Shaw were chatting so well, he felt a strong sense of jealousy.

This William Scott was simply a demon. Yesterday, Auntie was still dissatisfied with him. He had just come out for a short while, yet he had already made auntie smile and nod her head from time to time. It was obvious that she approved of William Scott.

Larry Zion wished he could expose William Scott’s identity right now, but he knew that this was not the best time. If he said it now, it would only ruin everyone’s mood. In the end, even if he made William Scott stink, he would not be liked by others. Hence, it was best to wait until the tour was over and on the way back!

“Hmph! I’ll let you be smug for a while longer!”

Larry Zion snorted and thought to himself.

At this moment, William Scott came over to Yoel Quinn. He took a fishing rod and started fishing.

It didn’t take long before he caught two big fish.

“Not bad.” Yoel Quinn was also interested.

“Uncle, the fish here are a bit different from the ones outside. Their bites are a bit more crafty. When the bladder moves, you have to hold the rod. If you hold it too late, it will spit it out.”

Yoel Quinn touched his chin and said, “Oh, I see. No wonder my food is eaten every time I reel in my rod.”

“This is also one of the characteristics of the fish here. Raise the rod!”

Yoel Quinn subconsciously raised his rod, and a big fish took the bait.

William Scott gave him a thumbs up and said, “Uncle’s skills are truly amazing. You’ve only just found out about the fish’s characteristics, but I’ve already caught it.”

Yoel Quinn laughed and said, “Kid, you don’t have to suck up to me. Without your guidance, I’m afraid I’ll have to sit here for a day in vain.”

Even though he knew that William Scott was sucking up to him and giving him pointers on how to fish, the way William Scott spoke really made him feel comfortable. It wasn’t the kind of unprincipled flattery, but the way William Scott spoke pointed out the problem. This was definitely an ability, a level of skill.

When the barbecue grill was set up, William Scott once again displayed his skills. Yoel Quinn and Yvonne Shaw had a better impression of him.

As parents, the expectations of a son-in-law were not only to treat their daughter well, but also to be capable. A capable son-in-law would not only benefit his daughter in the future, but the two of them would also enjoy life together.

It was obvious that William Scott was very capable in this aspect. He had thought through almost everything for them and did not need them to worry at all.

The old couple did not say it out loud, but Xenia Lewis praised William Scott to the skies!

“William, your barbecue skills are really not bad. The meat skewers are fragrant and tender. This is the first time I’ve eaten such delicious meat skewers. Ah, Yvette, I also want a boyfriend like William…”
