This "new" family dinner was not affected by the small incident at the beginning; on the contrary, after a few drinks, everyone was in high spirits.
Even Chen Jing, who was initially a little uneasy, was gradually swayed by the emotions of the young people. She, who doesn't usually drink, drank a few small cups at the urging of the Luo brothers. Her cheeks turned rosy, and although she was over forty, she looked like she was only in her early thirties.
Upon seeing this, Luo Xian secretly sighed to herself, thinking that in the end, her father was still a looks-obsessed person. He said he appreciated her talent, but in the end, it was just because she had a pretty face.
Of course, the initial attraction is mostly based on appearance, but the deeper feelings and ties that follow are likely sparked by talent and mutually attractive personalities.
If the two brothers had some uncertainty on the plane, by this point, that uncertainty had almost completely disappeared.
After the meal, the two brothers kept teasing Zizai, making him call them uncles.
"Zizai is so smart," he said, tilting his head and speaking in a serious tone.
"That won't do! Grandpa Luo has to propose to my mother-in-law first. Only after she agrees, we get our marriage certificate, and we have a wedding can I call you uncles!"
The little guy's words made everyone in the living room burst into laughter again. Fortunately, Chen Jing, the person involved, was not in the living room, otherwise, she would have been embarrassed.
The Luo family father and son stayed in the apartment until the afternoon. They were originally going to go out to find a hotel, but after listening to Zhu Qianying's suggestion, the whole group headed directly to Wanghaiju.
Zhu Qianying's main point was that since we were going to that place anyway tomorrow, why not go and stay there together tonight, so we wouldn't have to rush around so much tomorrow?
Zhu Qianying's suggestion implies that they consider each other family.
Luo Yifan was naturally delighted, and the Luo brothers also felt that given their current relationship, there was no need to be too formal. So, a large group of people boarded the car sent by the Yan family and drove back to Wanghai Residence in a grand procession.
Zizai is a crazy person. With so many people suddenly in the house, he didn't want to go to sleep for the whole afternoon. Even Bai Xiaolu joined in his craziness.
After all, he's only five years old, yet he's already worried about his grandparents and mother, and his emotions are easily influenced by external factors.
In addition, Yan Shao, Zhu Qianying, and Zizai all treated her very well, and the warmth she felt in the Yan family greatly alleviated her unease.
Zhu Qianying watched Bai Xiaolu and Zizai laughing together, amused by the Luo brothers, and couldn't help but lean close to Yan Shao's ear and ask.
"There hasn't been any movement from the Zong family these past two days, has there?"
Yan Shao shook his head, "Not for now. I guess they'll wait for Bai Shao to come back."
In reality, Zong Mao still stakes out Yanhuang every day, while Young Master Yan hasn't gone anywhere these past two days, working directly at the seaside villa.
Regarding Xiao Luzi's matter, Yan Shao couldn't afford to fall out with Zong Mao. After all, Zong Mao was indeed Xiao Luzi's grandfather, and Yan Shao had no right to decide Xiao Luzi's fate or whereabouts. However, he also couldn't let things escalate to the point where there was no room for maneuver.
For now, he can only stall and wait for Bai Shao to return so he can make a decision.
When her friend was mentioned, Zhu Qianying fell silent. She secretly calculated the days since her friend and her father left, and thought that they should be back by now.
"Silly girl, don't worry, everything will be alright."
Young Master Yan patted her head and comforted her.
Zhu Qianying smiled at him, got up and went to the kitchen to get some fruit to serve everyone.
After lunch and an afternoon together, they had become quite familiar with each other. After sitting for a while, they suggested going for a walk on the beach.
Anyway, dinner has already been decided – we'll eat seafood at a nearby seafood restaurant. That way, Chen Jing can go for her walk without worrying about dinner.
The beach at dusk was very peaceful and beautiful. The crimson sunset dyed the sky and the sea a vibrant red, and the fine sand on the beach was also gilded with a layer of gold by the sunset.
The group walked on the clean, fine sand, chatting and joking softly. Zizai and Bai Xiaolu were still running in the lead.
The group of young people, in perfect unison, followed Zizai and Bai Xiaolu in front, leaving the last seats for Luo Yifan and Chen Jing.
Luo Yifan, of course, understood the good intentions of the group of young people, and naturally took Chen Jing's hand, leaving her no way to avoid it.
He deliberately slowed his pace, and only after he had put some distance between himself and the young man in front of him did he glance sideways at Chen Jing, who was silent beside him.
"Jing, are you satisfied with today's meeting?"
He himself was quite satisfied with today's meeting.
Both the Zhu sisters and their two sons were far more accepting of him and Chen Jing than he had expected.
To be honest, he actually had a lot of confidence in the Zhu sisters. After all, after spending some time with them, he could tell that the sisters liked him quite a bit.
Compared to his two sisters, he was actually more worried about his two sons.
Although their mother passed away from illness, it is not easy for them to accept another woman as their mother.
To his surprise, his two sons were very friendly. They got along very well with the Zhu Qianying sisters and showed no resistance to Chen Jing. In fact, they seemed to like her quite a bit.
Chen Jing was in a daze for most of the day. It wasn't that she was not clear-headed, but rather that everything that happened today felt like a dream, completely unreal.
Perhaps it was because she had seen too much of the scheming and slanderous way of getting along in the Zhu family before, that the loving and happy atmosphere of this big family made her feel unreal.
Hearing Luo Yifan's question, she nodded slightly, "Yes, satisfied..."
Seeing that she was still a little dazed, Luo Yifan reached out and touched her face. "Did you drink too much at noon? Those two brats are always causing trouble. You don't need to worry about them anymore!"
That being said, Chen Jing didn't want to leave a timid impression in front of the Luo brothers, so even though she wasn't a big drinker, she forced herself to drink all the drinks they offered.
It seems the effect is quite good.
Thinking of this, Chen Jing smiled faintly, "It's nothing, everyone's having a good time, a little drink is fine. Besides, I'm not drunk, am I?"
Chen Jing's smile, illuminated by the glow of the sunset, was especially radiant. Luo Yifan stared at her, completely mesmerized.
He couldn't help himself, so he leaned in and gently pecked her lips, then asked with deep emotion, "Has anyone ever told you that you are beautiful!"
Chen Jing's face flushed instantly. Fortunately, the glow of the sunset softened the redness.
