The third wheel was finally gone, and Chu Jiangyi was secretly pleased. He and Xi Ran could finally enjoy some time alone together!
I thought the meal would be less than ideal with Chu Jiangning there, but things took an unexpected turn!
Ha ha!
My parents are awesome!
Love you all!
An unexpected turn of events can lead to unexpected success!
That was awesome!
Mom and Dad wanted to sneak out for some alone time, but Chu Jiangning still managed to see them!
Chu Jiangyi's face was full of smiles!
Xi Ran frowned and asked worriedly, "Is it really okay for Ningning to go and bother Aunt Yu and Uncle Chu like this?"
Chu Jiang smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with it! It's more lively when the three of us eat together!"
Xi Ran seemed thoughtful. "What about you? Aren't you going over? Wouldn't it be more lively with the four of you?"
Chu Jiang smiled and said, "I want to stay with you. Besides, I don't want to be a third wheel."
Xi Ran looked helpless as she saw Chu Jiang talking nonsense with a straight face.
Just now you were saying that family meals are lively, and now you're saying you don't want to be a third wheel? I don't believe you!
"Stop thinking about all that and hurry up and eat!"
Xi Ran smiled, took the hairy crab that Chu Jiangyi had peeled, and began to eat it with relish.
The two got along well, chatting and laughing together!
About ten minutes later, while Chu Jiangyi and Xi Ran were enjoying their delicious meal together, the little third wheel returned, and Chu Jiangyi's face stiffened!
Didn't you go and become a third wheel for your parents?
What does "now" mean?
Is she coming back to cause him trouble again?
Is Chu Jiangning blind? Can't he see that the atmosphere between them is harmonious right now?
Chu Jiang also looked disgusted. "Why are you back again? I saw you eating quite well over there!"
Chu Jiangning pouted. She didn't want to come either. She had gone there to ruin her parents' time together, but her dad said he could pay the bill as long as there was no waste. He wouldn't acknowledge the extra cost of the food, so she came back to deal with the food she had taken!
"I came back to deal with the food I brought myself. My dad said we'd pay for anything over the price of the food ourselves, which scared me so much that I came back here like a puppy."
Hearing this, Chu Jiang felt a tiny bit better!
It turns out I misunderstood this girl!
"You can take the food over to eat with your parents; they'll be very happy!"
Chu Jiangning's eyes lit up, and he slapped his forehead. "That's right! How come I didn't think of that! I'll go over now and won't disturb you two!"
Xi Ran blushed. This girl is getting more and more unserious; she's learned to tease her now!
Chu Jiangning arranged the items on the tray, picked it up, and left!
He stopped halfway and turned around, saying, "Dad said you should come over here after you finish eating, and we'll go out together. He'll pay!"
Chu Jiang also gave an OK sign!
Xi Ran was a little worried and suggested, "Why don't we learn from Ningning and bring the food to eat with Uncle Chu and Aunt Yu?"
Chu Jiang also shook his head, "I'm not going to be a third wheel."
Xi Ran was puzzled?
"A third wheel? Didn't Ningning go there already? We shouldn't be considered a third wheel now that we're going there!"
"Why not! Chu Jiangning is their little darling. When I was in college, she was always the third wheel, and she's already used to that role. Besides, my parents are used to being the third wheel. It'll be different if I'm the one in the future; they won't be used to it!"
"Why?"
"Silly girl! Figure it out yourself, okay?"
Xi Ran racked her brains trying to figure out what the reason could be.
never mind!
This has nothing to do with her, so why bother digging into it and causing yourself trouble?
"Whether you say it or not is none of my business!"
Are you angry?
"No."
Chu Jiangyi smiled and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. Let me tell you directly. I've grown up, while Chu Jiangning is still a little kid who doesn't understand what embarrassment is. But I'm different. I understand everything, and even... you know, they're too embarrassed to be all lovey-dovey in front of me, understand?"
Xi Ran's cheeks flushed!
He's a complete scoundrel!
He even acted like a hooligan while eating!
They're worse than animals!
snort!!!
Chu Jiang also saw that Xi Ran's face was as red as a little apple, and he couldn't help but feel a little tempted to take a bite. It must taste delicious!
