Her response was a loud slam of the door: "Bang!"

Seeing this, she couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "Prioritizing romance over friendship!"

A few seconds later, after calming down, she still felt resentful.

Why did Lin Congzhi only invite Yao Yao to dinner, and not her? Was it because of what happened yesterday? That's a bit too stingy, isn't it?

She was extremely puzzled, and the corners of her mouth turned down like a weeping willow; and in the context of cooking, she looked exactly like a resentful woman.

Lin Congzhi never expected this scene. He thought that Jiang Yimei, who had not broken up with Jiang Ze, would be very averse to having dinner at a man's house, especially with elders present.

If Xiao Kai knew that Yao Yao was coming to eat, he would definitely turn the car around, change the route, and find a place to hide; so Lin Congzhi let Yao Yao come alone.

There might be some danger on the way, but with bodyguards protecting us secretly, we should be fine, it just takes a bit longer.

At first, Gao Jiakai thought that Brother Lin was going to his sister-in-law's place to pick her up for dinner; after discovering that Brother Lin's route remained unchanged, he finally felt relieved.

Brother Lin's visit to Sister-in-law's apartment will definitely alert Yao Yao, and once she finds out he's coming for dinner, she'll pester him relentlessly, begging him to take her with him. Then he'll be bothered by that quirky girl again, and he'll have to take her home once more.

Back at Tianxin Residential Area, after parking the car, the two went upstairs side by side.

In the elevator, there was a moment of silence before Lin Congzhi abruptly asked, "How are you? Nervous?"

"I've already gotten along very well with my uncle and aunt, so why would I be nervous?"

Gao Jiakai felt that Brother Lin's question was inexplicable. Did he not understand it, or did he really not understand it?

"Don't be nervous!"

Lin Congzhi curled his lips slightly, then continued to stand elegantly.

Gao Jiakai felt that Brother Lin's smile was very strange, and he had a feeling that something was going to go wrong during this meal.

But Brother Lin didn't go to Sister-in-law's place, so Sister-in-law shouldn't know, right? Besides, at this time, Sister-in-law and that girl should have already eaten.

Even if we invite them over, they won't come.

I don't understand, I really don't get it.

"bite!"

The elevator arrived, and following the familiar route, Lin Congzhi returned home.

Seeing their son and Xiao Kai return, Mr. and Mrs. Lin, who had been watching TV on the sofa for a long time, smiled again.

"Oh, I've finally been waiting for you to come back."

After giving his parents a hug, Lin Congzhi asked them to sit at the dining table. They put down their things, washed their hands, and came over.

Lin's parents didn't say anything more and went to wait at the dining table.

After putting down their briefcases, changing their shoes, and washing their hands, Lin Congzhi and Gao Jiakai sat down to eat.

Seeing that it was just the two of them, Lin's mother, who was about to uncover the covered vegetables, asked curiously, "Where are Yao Yao and Miss Jiang?"

Lin Congzhi replied with a slightly disappointed look, "They didn't come!"

Brother Lin's answer pleased Gao Jiakai greatly.

As long as that brat doesn't come, he can enjoy a hearty and pleasant meal.

Lin's mother pressed, "Why didn't you come?"

Lin Congzhi explained, "They've all eaten."

"Oh, that's a real shame."

Lin's mother and husband cooked a whole table of dishes tonight, enough for six or seven people.

I originally wanted to use this meal to try and bring Xiao Kai and Yao Yao together, and to apologize to Miss Jiang on behalf of my son; now it seems that all of that is going to fall through.

Well, well, man proposes, God disposes. Besides, there's plenty of time and opportunities. Let them start eating now.
