That day.
Rong Jing went to the company.
His phone kept popping up with messages all morning.
At first, he thought it was sent by Su Yinwan.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be sent by Luo Mengyun.
Her gentle face instantly turned cold.
I quickly skimmed through the messages she sent.
It turns out today is the day she returns to China.
Luo Mengyun thought of having Rong Jing pick her up.
The man replied immediately.
[I'm busy today, I have to go to work and attend a meeting.]
The next second, the other party sent a message.
[Don't you even have time for lunch? How about I come to your office for lunch after I get off the plane? We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I have so much to tell you.]
No, I need to pick up my wife for lunch.
Rong Jing's brief remark cut off Luo Mengyun's escape route.
[Okay then, I'm hosting a comeback party in Rose tonight, just a few close friends and I. I hope you can come.]
Rong Jing frowned, but ultimately agreed.
[good.]
Thinking back to Luo Mengyun, whom he hadn't seen for two years, Rong Jing felt quite calm.
This unfamiliar feeling made it seem as if the two of them weren't very familiar with each other.
At noon, Rong Jing went to the dessert shop to pick up Su Yinwan for lunch.
There was a newly opened, trendy restaurant nearby, and Su Yinwan suggested that they go there to try it out.
After sitting down and ordering, Su Yinwan realized that the only difference between this trendy restaurant and other ordinary restaurants was the decor.
The store's exquisite decorations and meticulous preparation of ingredients highlight its variety.
The visual feast is the gimmick of this restaurant.
Soon, the steak that Su Yin had ordered was served.
Rong Jing was the first to take it, and then he picked up a knife and fork and slowly cut the whole steak into small pieces.
Su Yinwan rested her chin on her hand, waiting quietly.
She had become accustomed to such considerate care from men.
Five minutes later, Rong Jing placed the plate of sliced steak back in front of Su Yinwan.
"Eat."
"Thank you, honey."
Su Yinwan eagerly ate a small piece of steak. The meat was tender and juicy, and the taste was fresh and delicious, which did not disappoint her.
"It's delicious, have a bite too, ah~"
After saying that, Su Yinwan forked a small piece of steak and put it to Rong Jing's mouth.
The man took a bite.
"Would you like another bite?"
"No need, you eat it yourself, I'll just have noodles."
After that, Su Yinwan ignored him and quietly enjoyed the delicious steak.
"Rosé is having a party tonight, do you want to come with me?"
"Hmm? What kind of gathering? Who's going?"
After finishing the last bite of her steak, Su Yinwan wiped her mouth with a tissue and looked at Rong Jing.
"Ali, Achen, and Yunxin will all be there. An old friend is returning to China today and is holding a homecoming banquet there."
"Oh? Really? Then I'll come along too. How come I've never heard you mention this before?"
"We haven't seen her for several years, and we only just found out that she's back in China."
Rong Jing remained calm, showing no surprise whatsoever.
This made Su Yinwan feel that her friend didn't seem to have a very good relationship with them.
"I'll go home and change my clothes after get off work, and you can come back to pick me up then."
"Um."
After lunch, Rong Jing took Su Yinwan back to the dessert shop and then went back to the company.
While things were calm on one side, turmoil was brewing on the other.
"What? Sister Mengyun is back? She even invited us to ROSE tonight. What is she thinking? We don't welcome her back."
When Rong Xueer heard the news from Li Yanli, she couldn't sit still any longer.
"Exactly, what's the point of her coming back? It would be so much better if she stayed abroad, out of sight and out of mind."
Shangguan Yunxin gripped the doll in her arms tightly, her tone equally dissatisfied.
"Hey, you two, anyone who didn't know better would think you had some deep-seated grudge between you."
Looking at the two of them making a ruckus, Li Yanli shook his head helplessly.
"Absolutely, it's almost like a deep-seated hatred."
"Please sit down first, everyone around us is watching."
Li Yanli gestured to Rong Xueer to be mindful of her image and asked her to sit down first.
Will my brother go tonight?
I'll probably go.
Li Yanli said uncertainly.
“Then let’s go tonight too, and keep a close eye on that woman. What if she accidentally runs into my brother’s arms again? I don’t want this to affect my sister-in-law and brother’s relationship.”
"Let her go. There are plenty of us, we can keep an eye on her."
Shangguan Yunxin echoed earnestly.
"Alright, alright, you two shouldn't say anything too harsh tonight, after all, the relationship between our families is still public knowledge."
"knew."
Rong Xueer and Shangguan Yunxin reluctantly agreed.
Afterwards, the group changed the subject, not wanting this incident to spoil their fun.
7 PM.
Luo Mengyun appeared at ROSE dressed up carefully.
Immediately afterwards, Li Yanli led Shangguan Yunxin and Rong Xueer there.
Out of consideration for their past relationship, they still went and bought a bouquet of flowers.
After getting off the bus, neither Shangguan Yunxin nor Rong Xueer wanted to take the bouquet of flowers.
In the end, it was Li Yanli who took it.
The three of them walked into the private room that Luo Mengyun had booked.
"Ali, Yunxin, Xue'er, you're here."
Luo Mengyun had just finished ordering drinks and snacks when the three of them opened the door and walked in.
"Sister Mengyun, welcome back to China."
Li Yanli stepped forward and handed over the bouquet of flowers.
