Chapter 99 A Dinner Party for Three



In the afternoon, Yunhe called Su Yinwan and said that she had also returned to Beicheng and wanted to have dinner together.

Yunhe on the other end said happily, "Wanwan, Yubai came back with me. It's rare for us to get together. How about we go to our usual restaurant tonight?"

Rong Jing was not next to Su Yinwan when the two were on the phone.

At this moment, she was in her room on the second floor, while Rong Jing was on the first floor with his grandfather.

"Sure, it's been a long time since I've been there."

"Okay, it's settled then. See you later."

Su Yinwan hung up the phone and went downstairs.

She said to Aunt Qin, who was busy in the kitchen, "Aunt Qin, you don't need to cook for me tonight. I'll eat out."

"Okay, aren't you taking A-Jing out?"

"No, let him stay home with his grandfather."

After giving instructions to Aunt Qin, Su Yinwan went to the living room.

"Who are you going out to eat with?"

Rong Jing had keen hearing and naturally overheard her conversation with Aunt Qin.

"Yunhe".

Su Yinwan didn't tell Rong Jing that Jiang Yubai was also there, otherwise, given his possessive nature, he would have caused a huge uproar.

"You should have dinner with Grandpa tonight, and I'll try to come back as early as possible."

Su Yinwan walked up behind him very attentively and pressed his shoulder.

"Does it feel good? Want me to use a little more force?"

"No need, it's just right."

Rong Jing enjoyed Su Yinwan's technique.

The treatment is acceptable.

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiang Yubai made a reservation at the restaurant in advance.

The Su family's and the Yun family's houses were not far apart.

Su Yinwan and Yun He then went out together and walked to the restaurant together.

"How did Yu Bai come back with you?"

Along the way, Su Yinwan kept asking Yun He questions.

"It was quite a coincidence. My grandfather asked me to go back to Beicheng that day. I thought it was the weekend, so I drove back. I ended up running into him at a service area on the way."

"He said he hadn't been back to Beicheng for a long time and missed it, so we came back together."

"Alas, it's a pity that Grandma Shi is no longer here. He must be very sad to go back to Beicheng now."

Grandma Shi is Jiang Yubai's maternal grandmother. She is a hardworking, kind, and amiable old lady.

Back then, Jiang Yubai's mother became President Jiang's mistress, without any official status or recognition.

Although Mrs. Jiang had passed away, Jiang Yubai's mother was unable to gain entry into the Jiang family through her son.

Her status is what it is; she can't be presented in a respectable way.

She was furious when she saw that the son she had finally given birth to was not acknowledged by the Jiang family.

She felt that Jiang Yubai was a burden.

So she sent him directly back to Beicheng to be supported by his mother.

Jiang Yubai's mother was a cruel and selfish person.

She left without ever participating in her son's growth process.

She felt no remorse whatsoever for this.

The people in the town pitied Jiang Yubai, and they also pitied Grandma Shi.

It's truly unfortunate to have such a relative.

Fortunately, Grandma Shi loved Jiang Yubai very much.

She gave him all her love.

Jiang Yubai was raised by Grandma Shi, and they had a very close relationship.

Moreover, his original surname was Shi, and his given name was Shi Yubai.

During his senior year of college, the Jiang family asked him to acknowledge his ancestors and return to his clan, which is why he changed his name to Jiang Yubai.

However, Grandma Shi passed away from illness that same year.

The old lady passed away before she could even enjoy her retirement.

Her life was filled with suffering; her husband was abusive, and her children were unfilial.

In his old age, he finally had Jiang Yubai as a companion.

There was someone to rely on, and a touch of warmth.

But he still didn't get to enjoy his happiness.

The rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds its way to the unfortunate.

Thinking of this, Su Yinwan and Yun He felt very sad.

The two took a deep breath, composed themselves, and continued walking towards the restaurant.

Twenty minutes later.

A restaurant with a breeze.

This restaurant serves local specialties and home-style dishes from the northern part of the city.

It's economical and affordable, and the portions are generous.

Su Yinwan and her group came here to eat mainly because of the sentimental value they had.

A dish of steamed perch with a peacock-shaped grill was served, and Jiang Yubai immediately picked up his chopsticks.

He specifically chose the meat from the belly of the fish and put it in Su Yinwan's bowl.

"Xiao Wan, this piece of meat has few bones, eat it while it's hot."

"Yu Bai, that's enough, you can't be so biased," Yun He teased from the side.

Because the three of them were very close, they joked around very casually.

"You eat too."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yubai also put a piece of fish on Yunhe's plate, but it was the tail part.

This comparison clearly shows who he cares about more.

Yunhe was not surprised.

"Alright, Yu Bai, stop putting food on your plate. You should eat too."

Su Yinwan looked at the mountain of food piled up in her bowl and smiled helplessly.

"With such delicious food, how can we not have some wine?"

Yunhe then realized that Jiang Yubai hadn't ordered any drinks for them.

They raised their hands to beckon a waiter to bring them a pot of wine.

"Can't you go a day without drinking?"

"Isn't this great? It's been so long since we've gotten together in the North City."

"Fine, fine, I can't argue with you, you drunkard."

Su Yinwan and Yun He have known each other since childhood and understand each other's temperaments, so such bickering is a common occurrence in their daily lives.

Jiang Yubai looked at the two of them, smiled, and said nothing.

He simply felt that he liked and cherished this atmosphere.

After the waiter brought over a pot of wine, Yunhe poured the wine.

She first offered a glass to Su Yinwan, then to Jiang Yubai, and finally filled her own glass.

"Come on, let's wish our friendship lasts forever, and may we all be safe, happy, healthy and joyful forever. Cheers!"
