But his partner's salary was being spent on him, and he was filled with a feeling of shame. How could a grown man like him spend a woman's money on this lousy show!

After everyone had finished eating, as Liu Zeyu was cleaning up and washing up, the soon-to-be thirty-year-old began to seriously consider that perhaps it would be better not to invite friends to his home in the future.
