"You guys are too late. All the dumplings have been made."

Xue Ning glanced at the two of them with a half-smile.

"I went to get something." Xue Du didn't care much.

When he tilted his head and grabbed Shen Yinan's fingertips, the circle of red bite marks happened to be completely exposed to the air, and it looked even more ambiguous under the dim light of the garage.

But he acted as if he didn't know what was over there, and touched it with his fingertips, forcing everyone else to turn their attention there.

Xue Ning: “…”

She couldn't help it: "Did you know I broke up yesterday and deliberately provoked me? Are you very proud of it? Is having a boyfriend so great?"

She became more and more angry as she spoke, and raised the file bag in her hand and said, "If you provoke me again, you can forget about this."

Xue Du didn't feel threatened at all, he was used to it.

The young man patted Shen Yinan on the back and asked him to go in first, as he and Xue Ning still had something to say.

A kiss almost drove Xue Ning crazy, and Shen Yinan couldn't help feeling guilty, lowered his head, and quickened his pace.

When he reached the door, he didn't dare to look at the people passing by and hurried into the house.

The temperature in the house was like spring, and the Xue family members were scattered in the living room. A few of them gathered around the coffee table. Shen Yinan gave the gift to the servant beside him, took off his scarf, walked in, and greeted everyone.

Shen Hua was chatting with Xue Jingshan, and his expression looked quite serious. Shen Yinan didn't want to disturb him, so he went to the coffee table.

When I got closer, I found that Xue Huaizhi and Lu Zhi were sitting in front of the chessboard playing chess.

On the chessboard, black and white chess pieces are scattered.

Xue Huaizhi sat upright holding the black chess piece, his bony knuckles holding the chess piece, his wrist bones resting loosely on the side, which was already a pleasing sight.

Lu Zhi, who was sitting opposite him, scratched his head and sighed.

The phone next to him was video chatting with Qi Yuying. The old lady sipped her coconut water and gave instructions: "That one on your left, listen to me! Hey, not that one, the one a little above!"

"Grandma, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lu Zhi sighed in frustration, picked up the wrong chess piece and put it back.

"Brother, don't regret your move!" Lu Xiaoling, who was lying on the side watching, was disgusted. "Brother has made things much better for you, how can you be so embarrassed!"

"Can you please keep your voice down? I just made a move to see the effect. What does it mean to regret a move? Be careful with your words." Lu Zhi was lectured by his sister who was watching him. His face turned red and he moved the chess piece back hesitantly.

Xue Huaizhi watched him from the opposite side, waiting calmly and not caring about these pranks.

Under Qi Yuying's guidance, Lu Zhi quickly filled the chessboard. When there were only a few spots left, he sighed, "Brother, you could have won half an hour ago, right?"

"It's rare that you want to play, so I'll accompany you for a while." Xue Huaizhi's lips curled up.

"You're torturing me..." Lu Zhi put away the chess piece in a wronged tone, "Who's next?"

"Come here, dear boy, come next time!" Qi Yuying, who had long noticed that Shen Yinan was watching from the side, hurriedly called out.

Although Shen Yinan had learned some Go, his level was no different from that of an elementary school student. Just as he was about to wave his hand, Lu Zhi excitedly pushed him to sit down.

"Sister-in-law, please sit down. Would you like some tea? I'll pour it for you!" Lu Zhi had been tortured for a long time, and this time someone finally came to replace him, and he immediately smiled.

“No need.” Shen Yinan waved his hand.

Xue Huaizhi handed him the chess piece: "Yinan, you go first."

“Okay.” Shen Yinan picked up a chess piece.

Xue Huaizhi smiled gently as usual, but Shen Yinan always had the illusion that he was facing the dean of teaching, and he became nervous unconsciously.

"Let's play Gobang, you go first." Xue Huaizhi saw his discomfort and said gently.

Shen Yinan nodded, he was quite proficient in Gobang.

The two of them got off for a while and it was time for dinner.

Everyone moved to the restaurant.

Since Qi Yuying was not there, Shen Hua was pushed to the main seat. Shen Yinan sat next to Lu Zhi. There were two empty seats in the middle, which were given to Xue Ning and Xue Du.

Lin Xiuchun turned to Shen Yinan and smiled: "Yinan, today's dumplings are made by ourselves. They don't look very good, but they won't taste bad. Cabbage and pork, you try it."

There were ten dumplings on the plate, all of them looked very strange, some were round like buns, some were flat like sailboats, and some were even crooked... In short, each one had its own characteristics.

Lu Zhi brought him a plate and poured some vinegar on it: "Sister-in-law, which dumpling do you think is the best looking?"

Looking at him, Shen Yinan estimated that there was something he had made inside. After hesitating for a moment, he pointed to the dumpling that was bulging like a bun.

"this?"

"You have good taste!" Lu Zhi gave him a thumbs up. "My mom made this. Doesn't it look like a big fat boy?"

Ana Shen nodded, “Which one did you pack?”

Lu Zhi scratched the back of his head. "There's no place for me here. The division of labor in my family is that my uncle and I knead the dough, my second uncle, my mother, and my eldest brother roll the dough, and the rest of us make the dumplings."

"It's a good thing that the dumplings he made didn't break! Grandpa used to say that he had endless energy!" Lu Xiaoling came over and exposed his shortcomings with a smile.

"Lu Xiaoling! How many times have you met grandpa? Why are you spreading rumors here?" Lu Zhi pulled his sister's ponytail in annoyance.

Lu Xiaoling covered the back of her head and stared.

Before Lu Zhi could even open his mouth, someone slapped him on the back of his head: "What are you doing? Do you deserve a beating?"

Xue Ning arrived late. When she reached that station, Lu Zhi didn't dare to speak. He went back to eat dumplings in a timid voice. Lu Xiaoling looked up proudly and said, "Sister is still the best to me!"

When the two siblings made such a fuss, the other elders also started laughing.

Shen Yinan was infected by the atmosphere, and his lips couldn’t help but curl up.

But he suddenly remembered something and quickly turned to look at the person sitting next to him.
