Lu Jinzhou's car was parked in front of the main villa, and Xue Shuyi got on the passenger seat as a matter of course.

He paused for a moment, then started the car. "Where do you want to eat?"

Xue Shuyi chuckled, and compared to her well-educated and well-mannered appearance at the Lu family before, she was more playful.

"Who eats dinner at two or three o'clock? Grandma Lu just wanted us to be alone, and you took it seriously. I'm saying, can you please get out of being single soon? Every time Grandma Lu looks at me like she's her granddaughter-in-law, it really puts me under a lot of pressure, okay?!"

Lu Jinzhou's expression was still as cold as usual, but his tone seemed less cold than usual, with a hint of familiarity between good friends. "I'm the one pushing you, why are you so stressed?"

"Nonsense, as long as I'm here, every time I urge you, I'm trying to bring us together. Seriously, if you can't get away from being single, why don't we get together? It'll just please grandma. What do you think will happen if we really get together?"

After Xue Shuyi finished speaking, she stared at Lu Jinzhou's profile, her tone a bit joking, but it seemed like she was asking a serious question.

Without even turning his head, Lu Jinzhou stared at the road ahead and said indifferently, "Since you don't want to be dragged down by the old lady to get married, why don't you find a way out as soon as possible?"

A trace of sadness flashed across Xue Shuyi's eyes, and she withdrew her gaze.

"No, I won't. There are so many interesting things in the world. What's the point of falling in love? I can't let the single persona I set up back then fall apart."

"If Cheng Che heard you say this, he would be heartbroken and cry."

"You're good at this, are you kidding us too?"

Lu Jinzhou really didn't mean to joke at all. Cheng Che had liked Xue Shuyi since their school days. It was well known to everyone, but Xue Shuyi was not interested in love.

“It’s rare to find someone who is loyal and devoted. If you meet one, you should cherish him or her.”

Xue Shuyi didn't respond at all. "I can only imagine how you'll urge your grandchildren to get married when you're old. You'll definitely be no less than Grandma Lu."

Lu Jinzhou: “…”

Grandchildren... When he and Shen Nianchu are old and their teeth have all fallen out, it would be nice to have a house full of children and grandchildren.

He really can't help but think of that heartless little woman all the time now.

We will be separated again the day after tomorrow. Chen Nianchu has to go to Haicheng for filming, so it is not possible to see her right away. We have to hurry up and be together.

Lu Jinzhou was anxious and sped up the car. "Take you home?"

"No, I've only been back for a year. How can I just stay home and waste my time? Jiang Qinian called me before I left and said he'd arranged a meeting with those people at Jue Se to welcome me. They asked me to call you. Let's go?"

"I won't go. Have fun. I'll take you there."

"No way?" Xue Shuyi's almond-shaped eyes widened.

"It's been almost a year since we last met, and you didn't even come to the welcoming party. That's so rude. Are we good friends? I've been trying to smooth things over for you so many times in front of Grandma Lu..."

Xue Shuyi kept chattering, and Lu Jinzhou was annoyed by her nagging. Finally, he decided to go inside to meet her. Anyway, he had to send her there, so he just went in to say hello.

It just so happened that Chen Nianchu had made an appointment with Ye Huan to go out for a walk, so he probably wouldn't be home for a while.

Jazz is the most advanced and expensive entertainment venue in Beijing. You can't afford to play there without a little money, and you can't even enter if you don't have a certain status.

When the two arrived, the others were already there. They started playing a game of billiards and arguing at the same time.

After saying hello, Jiang Qinian casually asked, "Is your sister-in-law home?"

Lu Jinzhou sat casually on the sofa and lit a cigarette. "I went shopping with Ye Huan."

"Sister-in-law?" Xue Shuyi was completely stunned. She looked at Jiang Qinian in confusion, "Who is the sister-in-law you are talking about?"

Jiang Qinian instantly realized that he had said too much, "Brother didn't tell you that he is no longer single."

Xue Shuyi: "What?"

Jiang Qinian had never seen a woman with such an expression of disbelief.

"What's with that expression on your face? You look like the sky is falling... But this is truly shocking. It took me a long time to accept it."

Cheng Che missed the shot and the ball didn't go into the hole. Looking at Xue Shuyi's expression that was unable to recover for a long time, he felt bitter in his heart, but he managed to hide it well.

"It's really hard to accept. I never thought I'd be able to eat the dog food that Brother Jin spreads in my life, and I never thought that Brother Jin could be so tender and affectionate to someone."

Xue Shuyi once thought she was hallucinating. Is Lu Jinzhou no longer single?

He actually... is no longer single?

What kind of woman can win Lu Jinzhou's favor?

Lu Xingzhou holed his last ball and lit a cigarette. "Look, I bet Sister Shuyi wouldn't believe it, right?"

Xue Shuyi realized her own loss of composure and saw that these people did not seem to be joking, so she quickly adjusted her state.

"It's really hard to believe. I said just now that Jin Zhou didn't plan to come. Is he planning to go back and be with his girlfriend?"

Jiang Qinian: "No, we haven't been together for a long time. Big brother, why don't you ask your sister-in-law to come over, or ask someone to pick her up so we can play together. Anyway, except for Shuyi, we all know each other."

Of course, he had other plans in mind. "If sister-in-law feels embarrassed to stand others up, she can call Ye Huan over as well. It will be more lively with more people."

Lu Xingzhou chuckled, "I think it's you who wants to date Ye Huan, and you're even trying to be nice to Big Brother."

"Go! Go! Go."

Xue Shuyi: "Yeah, just ask her to come over and play with us. Every time we get together, I'm the only woman. It's a good opportunity to ask her to come over and play with us. Then I'll have more sisters, right?"

Lu Jinzhou had no objection. He was now eager to drag Chen Nianchu with him to the streets all day long, so as to announce their relationship to the world. This way, she would not think of leaving him. He took out his phone from his pocket and said, "I'll ask her."

Shen Nianchu felt that she was really crazy. She was absent-minded even when shopping. She didn't know why Lu Jinzhou came home. Is Mrs. Lu okay?

Just as I was thinking, my phone rang. The man's deep and magnetic voice sounded, "What are you doing?"

"Waiting for Ye Huan to try on clothes."

Lu Jinzhou stood alone on the terrace, lighting a cigarette and puffing away. "Did you buy anything?"

"No, maybe it's because the things you prepared at home are too beautiful, so these are not pleasing to the eye. It's all your fault." Shen Nianchu said coquettishly.

Lu Jinzhou chuckled a few times, "Yeah, blame me. Is it almost over? Do you want to come out and play?"

"Is the old lady okay?"

"He was just pretending to be sick to trick me into going back. A friend of mine is coming back to China, and he and Jiang Qinian are having a welcoming party at Juese. Do you want to come?"

"Male friends or female friends?"

"Female, childhood friend. If you want to come, I'll have someone pick you up and bring Ye Huan with you."

Female?

Shen Nianchu was a little hesitant before, but possessiveness took over and she just wanted to go and take a look. Just then, Ye Huan said he was tired of shopping and said, "Go! I'm driving. Just have someone pick me up at the door."

She had heard of Juese, and that people who didn't know it couldn't enter.

"Okay, drive carefully."
