Didn't I just mean to say hello to her?
Why did it turn into going back to eat again?
Honestly, Hua Xiaojiu doesn't want to go back.
"Let's not," he said, feeling conflicted. "Wouldn't it be better if we just stayed home and had some egg noodles?"
“No.” Rong Shang refused him outright. “If you want to eat, cook it yourself.”
"Then..." he tried to back down, "Shall we order takeout?"
"No," Rong Shang still refused.
I'm so distressed.
Hua Xiaojiu shook his head and rubbed his forehead.
"Never mind..." He tossed his phone down. "You can tell me if you want to go."
“Okay.” Rong Shang smiled when she saw him throw his phone on the table, picked it up, and dialed Madam Hua’s number.
What followed left Hua Xiaojiu speechless.
Let her say it.
Why do you put his name first in every sentence?
"I'm not going."
After she hung up the phone, Hua Xiaojiu glared at her with a sharp look.
Rong Shang didn't care. She shrugged and handed the phone back to him.
"If you don't want to go, then don't go. I'll go by myself."
Tell Madam Hua that he has something come up and can't make it.
Hua Xiaojiu, "..."
What are you saying?
Why can't I understand?
There's nothing he can do. It's his own business if he doesn't want to go; he can't very well tell her not to go either.
In the end, Hua Xiaojiu couldn't resist the hunger and went back to the Hua family with Rong Shang.
Of course, when Rong Chang mentioned coming back for dinner, she realized that since Madam Hua and Chen Xinlan couldn't make plans to have dinner together, she would definitely invite her to their home.
Unsurprisingly, the moment she dragged Hua Xiaojiu through the door, she met the eyes of the woman in the living room.
The two bumped into each other head-on.
Chen Xinlan, however, remained quite calm.
It was obvious that Mrs. Hua had informed her beforehand.
Upon seeing her here, Rong Shang deliberately pretended to be nonchalant and greeted her.
"Xinlan, what brings you here too?"
The other person quickly understood her meaning and followed suit, saying, "I was invited by your aunt."
"Really?" Rong Shang smiled and shifted her gaze away from her.
Behind Chen Xinlan, Madam Hua, wearing reading glasses, was playing the latest model of game console.
They probably knew they were coming, but they didn't really pay them any attention.
Chen Xinlan had only said a few words when she was immediately touched by her hand from behind. "Xinlan, how do you play this game? Please sit down and teach me."
"Auntie." Madam Hua was so warm to her; she was on a completely different level from Huo Qiyan.
Chen Xinlan was somewhat smug. When she was about to sit down, she raised an eyebrow at Rong Shang, with 80% of her expression being boastful.
Rong Shang lowered her head and gave a cold laugh, but said nothing.
But then, the man beside her suddenly broke free from her hand and stepped forward.
Rong Shang was stunned for a moment, and then she looked up.
Hua Xiaojiu walked up to Chen Xinlan and started talking to her.
Not only that, he also touched her pink dress.
Rong Shang's face darkened instantly, "..."
The man was overjoyed. "Oh my god, your clothes are so beautiful! Where did you buy them?"
The man's initiative to approach her made Chen Xinlan feel flattered.
She covered her mouth and looked up.
This also caught the attention of Madam Hua, who asked Hua Xiaojiu, "What's wrong?"
"Why are you being so sweet-talking today?"
As soon as he arrived, Madam Hua praised Chen Xinlan's dress.
She felt that there was still a possibility between the two of them.
Who knew that Hua Xiaojiu would say something so shocking, "Why don't you buy me a set? I don't think you deserve such a beautiful dress. Our Qiyan's looks are a better match for this dress."
