Sun Ziru consulted Gu Yueji about the layout of each house. Under his guidance, Gu Yueji shared more and more of her ideas, and they even discussed going to the home improvement market together next week.
However, at the time they had arranged for the following week, Sun Ziru dropped a bombshell on her.
My parents are here, and they said they'd like to invite you to dinner. Is that okay?
Gu Yueji was so startled that she choked on her water. "Cough cough cough... This, so sudden?"
"Sorry to scare you, they knew my house was handed over and said they wanted to come and take a look. Then, while we were chatting, they said they wanted to invite you to dinner. If you weren't ready, I just said I had to go on a business trip and it was okay."
The parents have personally come to invite us to dinner, so there's no reason for me to lie and avoid them. Gu Yueji wiped her mouth with a tissue. "If you want to meet them, set a time and restaurant and let me know in advance. Also, tell me what your aunt and uncle like so I can prepare some gifts."
"No need to buy a gift, just come over for dinner."
"I'm still going to buy it even if you don't tell me. Just tell me quickly, or I might end up buying something they don't like."
Seeing that he couldn't stop her, Sun Ziru said, "I'll buy it for you. You just need to go there." Gu Yueji wanted to say that this wasn't right, but Sun Ziru said first, "Let's buy it when you officially meet me at my house next time."
So, in order to make a good impression on Sun Ziru's parents, Gu Yueji got a haircut beforehand and also bought a new dress.
On the weekend, Sun Ziru went to the high-speed rail station to pick someone up and was on his way back when Gu Yueji went to the restaurant to wait for him.
Ren Jin saw Gu Yueji again at the entrance of this restaurant.
That day, Zhao Weiwei ostensibly introduced him to her friend, but Ren Jin understood that Zhao Weiwei had invited her friend to come and assess him.
After meeting a few times, Ren Jin found his interactions with Zhao Weiwei increasingly boring. Each meeting consisted of nothing more than eating, drinking, watching movies, and shopping. He found the routine meaningless after repeating it three times, but Zhao Weiwei seemed to enjoy it immensely.
Although he didn't know how much longer he could continue dating Zhao Weiwei, he still made sure she would treat her best friend to dinner, booking a high-end seafood restaurant in the city.
When he drove his car to the restaurant entrance, he immediately recognized Gu Yueji standing there.
She had a new hairstyle, with slightly wavy long hair, a pink sweater paired with a dark red straight-cut long skirt, showing off her slender waist and gentle, charming temperament.
She stood still by the restaurant entrance, clearly waiting for someone.
Ren Jin parked the car a little away from the gate, at the bottom of the steps, and let Zhao Weiwei and her best friend get out first. "You and your friend go up first, I'll go park the car."
"Okay, Donghai House, is that right?"
"Okay, you can order the food, you don't need to wait for me. Don't let your sisters go hungry."
Ren Jin's thoughtful manner made Zhao Weiwei feel very proud. "Okay, hurry up and come up. We've ordered the food and are waiting for you."
After Zhao Weiwei left, Ren Jin parked the car where he could see Gu Yueji.
She stood there calmly and patiently, not playing on her phone. Apart from work, she didn't really like using her phone. In her free time, she preferred watching movies and reading books. He once laughed at her for pretending to be cultured, and then she kicked him.
As he was still reminiscing, a car pulled up in front of her. A middle-aged couple got out, and the woman in the car took Gu Yueji's hand, chatting and laughing for a few moments. Gu Yueji went to the passenger side window, spoke a few words to the driver, and then accompanied the two middle-aged people into the restaurant. As the car drove towards the parking lot, through the window he saw that the driver was none other than the man he had met on a blind date with before.
It seems she's already reached the point of meeting the parents.
It's been less than three months since their last major disagreement, and it turns out she's really eager to get married.
