Lin Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hand, a smile playing on her lips.

From mutual competition to mutual respect, one went abroad to lie low for many years, while the other devoted all his efforts to climbing the ladder, sacrificing personal interests for the greater good.

They're evenly matched, a love-hate relationship—who understands? I'm totally shipping them!

Not only was Lin Xiaoxiao excited, but Chu Wuyan, who had eaten so many expired melons, was also somewhat moved when he suddenly tasted a real melon.

"It hasn't been easy for Boss Han. He's getting on in years, and he's finally going to find a partner."

In reality, Han Xiu is only twenty-eight, not even thirty, not old at all.

But compared to those who become parents at fifteen or sixteen, he is much later than expected.

It wasn't easy.

Lin Xiaoxiao replied crisply, "Okay, you call me Brother Han, and I'll call you Xiao Qiqi."

Chu Wuyan, who was enjoying his meal at the table, raised his hand and asked, "Can I come?"

Good heavens, Qin Yushen's cooking is so delicious, it's so good that he wishes he could stay here forever.

"Sure, why not?" Lin Xiaoxiao laughed. "Just remember to bring your partner."

"You like gnawing on bones so much?" Lin Xiaoxiao turned her chopsticks and chuckled as she picked up the chicken leg. "I like gnawing on meat, so I won't be polite."

Chu Wuyan (tears streaming down his face) (actually, he was completely dazed by the fragrance): "..."
