When Bai Qi arrived, the people in the living room were having a lively conversation.

"Am I late? How come you're already chatting?"

Song Lanzhi greeted him warmly, "Bai Qi, you're here! Come and sit down. Bai Ying is still in class. I'll ask Auntie to go and call her."

"No need to call me, I came out by myself when I smelled the aroma of the food."

She stepped forward, took her brother's arm, and sat down next to Lin Wanwan.

"Bai Qi, this is my eldest son, Lu Anyang. You are about the same age."

Lu Anyang nodded to him as a greeting.

Bai Qi was also sizing him up. "Aunt Song has finally been waiting for you to come back."

Song Lanzhi was delighted, "Yes, yes, the whole family can be reunited now."

My aunt came over to call us for dinner.

“My aunt told me not to bring gifts, so I brought back two roast ducks on my way back. You’ve been away for so long, you must be craving them.”

Lu Anyang smiled and said, "I wasn't really thinking about it at first, but looking at the roast duck on the table, I felt my mouth watering."

"Yes, yes, this roast duck is so delicious!" Lin Wanwan couldn't wait to try it.

Song Lanzhi was happy, drank two glasses of wine, finished her meal, and went to bed early.

The white players moved their pieces to the living room.

It's unclear when Lu Feng made the call, summoning Jiang Dongsheng and Xia Yang; Zhou Ming also didn't know when he returned.

Zhou Ming is a bit chubby, very tall, and has a smile like that of Maitreya Buddha.

As soon as he came in, he put the things he was carrying in Lin Wanwan's arms. "Sister-in-law, this is a gift. I was in Shenzhen and couldn't come back before. Please don't mind."

"It's not my fault, it's not my fault," Lin Wanwan said as she went out to ask the aunt to make tea.

Zhou Ming called out to him, "What are you guys doing drinking tea? We'll drink alcohol, we brought some with us."

Jiang Dongsheng kicked him, "You think you're so good at being a good person? You prepared a gift for us without even saying a word."

Zhou Ming wasn't angry. He sat on the sofa with a smile and said, "Who knew you would be so inconsiderate, not even preparing a gift for our first meeting? Luckily, my sister-in-law has a good temper and welcomed you in with a smile. If it were me, I would have kicked you out long ago."

Jiang Dongsheng threw a cushion at him, yelling, "You bastard!!"

Zhou Ming chuckled and accepted the gift. "Big brother, welcome back! We didn't want to bother you since you just got back today. Lu Feng called, so we came over. Please don't mind, big brother."

Lu Anyang smiled. These were all Lu Feng's childhood friends. He was a little older and hadn't spent much time with them before, but he was still familiar with them. Now they were all much more mature.

"You've come at the perfect time. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight. Now that you're here, you can keep me company and have a chat."

"That's great, we're all night owls."

Jiang Dongsheng and Xia Yang had met Bai Qi before. Bai Ying lived at the Lu family's house, and Jiang Dongsheng and the others frequently visited, bumping into Bai Qi several times.

"Brother Qi, what brings you here today?" Jiang Dongsheng greeted him.

"I'm just here to freeload a meal. I'm off tomorrow, so I can have a good chat with you guys tonight."

"That's great."

Of these people, Zhou Ming was the only one he hadn't met before. Zhou Ming raised his wine glass at him, offering a brief greeting without saying much.

White Chess also raised the wine glass in his hand, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Lin Wanwan couldn't drink alcohol, but she was very interested in their conversation.

Seeing that she was listening attentively, Jiang Dongsheng seemed to remember something and asked, "Sister-in-law, I heard you just bought two courtyards?"

"Aren't you too well-informed? I just signed the contract and the property was transferred, and you already know?"

"Then you can look at other people's news, but I'm not interested. I'm very concerned about my sister-in-law's affairs."

Lin Wanwan was speechless. "Don't try to flatter me. I'll definitely do what I promised you last time. I took his measurements last time and I've already drawn the picture."

Jiang Dongsheng's eyes lit up. "That's great! I'll be waiting."

"Sister-in-law, what did you promise him? Don't show favoritism, I want it too."

"You can have whatever you want, but it's none of yours."

Zhou Ming's eyes darted around. "Sister-in-law, you didn't agree to give him clothes again, did you? He didn't even give you a gift when you first met him. Don't give them to him, give them to me instead."

"Why should I give it to you? Who do you think you are?"

Lin Wanwan found their bickering quite amusing, and she almost started eating sunflower seeds in front of them.

Lu Feng could tell from her expression that she was enjoying the show, so he patted her head and smiled.

The two bickering men were speechless. "Are you blind? Our Young Master Lu has really changed."

Lu Feng ignored what they were saying and pulled Lin Wanwan into his arms.

Lin Wanwan looked up and smiled at him, then naturally leaned into his arms.

Zhou Ming looked hurt. "Can you two stop this? It's too much for us single folks to bear."

"Sister-in-law, clothes, clothes, otherwise it really won't get better," she said, then poured them onto Xia Yang.

Jiang Dongsheng kicked him, "Die if you want, don't fucking try to extort money from me."

“Okay, what they have, you have too, but you have to wait. Dongsheng got me some business, and I have to finish his before I can do it for you.”

Jiang Dongsheng said proudly, "See? I'm very grateful and I don't take my sister-in-law's things for nothing."

"You're acting as my free models, which is also a form of advertising for me."

"Sister-in-law, Zhou Ming's physique is not suitable for being a model. Don't ruin your reputation."

Zhou Ming almost smashed the wine glass in his hand in his face.

"You have a great figure, don't worry."

When Lu Anyang heard that Zhou Ming was in Shenzhen, he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

Lin Wanwan was also very interested and asked about the policies and situation there.

"Is your sister-in-law also interested in that area?"

Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "I'm a little interested."

Lu Anyang was also very interested and asked many detailed questions.

Zhou Ming was very patient and explained in detail, "Some policy documents haven't been approved yet, but judging from what I've heard from above, they'll be issued sooner or later. If you're interested, why don't you come with me and take a look? You'll have many advantages if you invest there as a foreigner."

Lu Anyang nodded, "That's exactly right."

I asked him when he was going back to Shenzhen, and we agreed to go together.

Lu Feng looked at his older brother, "You want to go see it?"

"Yes, there must be many opportunities to make money over there. I am a businessman after all."

Lin Wanwan looked on with envy, "If I weren't pregnant, I would want to go too."

Lu Anyang chuckled, "Go and take a look after the baby is born."

"This is the only way."

Around midnight, Lin Wanwan was extremely sleepy, but she still really wanted to listen to their conversation.

Zheng Yan didn't go home either; she and Bai Ying had already taken the three children to sleep. There were more rooms here, so there was plenty of room.

Seeing that Lin Wanwan's eyelids were drooping, Lu Feng stood up and said, "I'll take Wanwan back to rest. You two talk first."

Lin Wanwan was indeed extremely tired. After washing up, she went to bed and fell asleep immediately.

Lin Wanwan didn't wake up until almost 11 o'clock, and when she woke up, she found that Lu Feng was still sleeping next to her.

They probably talked until very late last night before coming back.

Lin Wanwan wanted to get up, but Lu Feng held her tightly, saying, "Sleep with me a little longer."

She didn't say anything, and snuggled back into his arms to continue sleeping.
