The five people in the private room ate and drank, chatting occasionally.
Yang Qi stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a piece of firm and tender chicken and put it in his mouth: "Xiao Yu, I will try my best to finish renovating the house for you in the next quarter. The high temperature in summer will help remove formaldehyde, and you can move in by the end of next year."
"Brother Qi," Yu Huan said, holding chopsticks in his right hand and giving a thumbs-up with his left, "So thoughtful!"
As time went by and the wine was drunk in several rounds, only a little bit of rich broth remained in the clay pot of Farewell My Concubine, and the Wuliangye liquor bottle was completely empty.
Yu Huan and Yang Qi, who had been eating until the very end, both put down their chopsticks.
Yu Huan, thoroughly enjoying himself, tore off a tissue, wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth, and a satisfied and joyful smile appeared on his face.
He had already paid the bill earlier, under the pretext of needing to use the restroom.
The meal cost about four thousand yuan, not including the drinks we brought ourselves.
Only wild giant soft-shelled turtles are this expensive. At this soft-shelled turtle restaurant, you can eat very comfortably with a regular soft-shelled turtle for 100 yuan per person.
The uncle, beaming with pride, didn't forget to tell Yu Huan, "Little Yu, drive Brother Qi's car and take him home."
"Don't worry, Uncle, leave it to me." Yu Huan nodded in agreement, then glanced at her uncle and Old Lin and scratched her head: "What about you two?"
Old Lin laughed and said, "Your mom has a driver's license, but she doesn't usually like driving and rarely does. With me sitting next to her, she can easily drive back home."
"Oh." Yu Huan nodded in realization. "Then please be careful on the road."
He's already experienced Lin Yourong's driving skills firsthand, so his mother-in-law probably isn't much better.
Old Lin got up, glanced at the wall clock, and continued gently, "It's already 8:15. Xiao Yu, go home and rest early after you drop them off. You have to go to work tomorrow."
Yu Huan nodded: "Okay."
The group parted ways happily, splitting into two groups outside the shop.
Yang Qi was swaying unsteadily, unable to walk steadily.
Seeing his drunken state, Yu Huan, after having her uncle verify his address, confirmed his home address and exchanged phone numbers with Yang Qi.
After saying goodbye to his uncle and promising to see him again during the New Year, he took the car keys from Yang Qi, got into the driver's seat of the Phaeton, and started the engine.
After reversing slightly, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and drive onto the main road.
The rear of a regular Volkswagen car usually displays Chinese characters such as "SAIC Volkswagen", while the Phaeton displays the English name "PHAETON".
This car looks unremarkable, but it is actually handcrafted and is in the same class as the Audi A8 under the Volkswagen Group.
Yang Qi was the youngest among the seniors at the drinking party, and in order to keep his two elders company, he drank half a bottle of Wuliangye.
At this moment, he was drowsy and confused, his words were incoherent.
"Little Donkey, leave your doorknob key with me for now."
Yu Huan gripped the steering wheel, saying with a wry smile, "Brother Qi, no problem."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Yang Qi suddenly opened his throat and howled at the top of his lungs, "Is this me? I have absolutely nothing!"
Once he started talking, he wouldn't stop.
"Dark Onion~ How~ Explore your hand~"
Yu Huan, whose ears had been tormented, stepped on the gas pedal and arrived at Shuyuan Road in just over ten minutes, driving the car to the bottom of his apartment building.
Seeing the familiar surroundings, Yang Qi finally calmed down, only repeating foolishly, "I'm home, I'm home..."
Yu Huan helped the erratic, thin bamboo pole up the stairs to the fifth floor. After carefully confirming the apartment number, she knocked on the door.
In order to make sure that the people inside could see Yang Qi clearly, Yu Huan deliberately pointed his head towards the peephole.
A moment later, the door opened, and a face covered with a face mask peeked out.
Yu Huan wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and said politely, "Are you my sister-in-law? Brother Qi had a few drinks, so I specially brought him back."
Upon hearing this, the door immediately swung open.
The woman behind the door, wearing a bulky, thick cotton nightgown, hurriedly stepped forward to support Yang Qi's arm, guiding the somewhat disoriented drunkard as he stumbled through the door.
She looked up at Yu Huan and said, "Thank you for bringing him back."
"Here are the keys." Yu Huan smiled and handed her the car keys.
The woman took the car keys, but before she could say anything, the tall, handsome young man outside turned and left, saying, "I've already delivered the person to you, sister-in-law, so I'll be leaving now."
Watching his figure disappear into the stairwell, the woman's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she only weakly uttered a few words: "What sister-in-law... I'm his daughter..."
That guy is so handsome!
The sudden visual impact left her speechless!
She quickly raised her voice and shouted into the room, "Mom! Dad's drunk again, and a handsome guy brought him home!"
The shouts echoed urgently in the corridor, but Yu Huan, who had already quickly walked to the first floor, did not notice them.
He left the residential compound, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for his rented room in the Shizishan community.
The first thing Yu Huan did after opening the door was to take a hot shower.
Mei Naihe was sweating profusely because of Yang Qi, that drunkard.
He stood under the shower, letting the hot water wash over his body, washing away the fatigue of the day.
Around nine o'clock, Yu Huan had just crawled into bed when her phone vibrated. She reached for her phone from beside her pillow and saw that it was a video call from Lin Yourong.
He quickly answered the call, but because he wasn't warm in the blankets yet, he was hunched over, only revealing half of his face above his nose. "Hello, Rongrong~" Yu Huan's mouth was hidden under the blankets, and his voice sounded a little muffled.
Lin Yourong, listening to the strange Taipei accent on the phone screen, couldn't help but chuckle: "Going to bed so early?"
Seeing that she was sitting in a light blue nightgown, Yu Huan immediately flirted and said, "You didn't even call me, so I don't want to answer your questions."
"Darling~" Lin Yourong called out sweetly.
The sound is a little strained, but it's very pleasant to listen to.
"Yes!" Yu Huan responded immediately, a satisfied smile in her eyes.
Suddenly, Ru Jie's voice came through the phone: "Would you two die if you didn't show off your love?"
Lin Yourong immediately rolled her eyes at the direction diagonally opposite: "Mind your own business!" After saying that, she turned her head back to look at this side.
Yu Huan revealed her mouth and said, "Without you by my side, every day feels like an eternity. It's been almost seven years since we last met, and I've really missed you terribly!"
"Pooh!"
Lin Yourong spat, a bright smile on her face.
But then she seemed to realize something, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared: "I have to go straight to the Broadcasting Center after I get off the plane tomorrow. The company has also booked a hotel there to prepare for recording a program. I can only come to see you after the recording is over on Saturday night."
Seeing that her expression was becoming unhappy as she spoke, Yu Huan quickly changed her tone: "It's okay. If two people are truly in love, why should they be together every day? We won't be in trouble for a little while."
Ru Jie's voice came from afar: "My God! No wonder she was able to win over my Su Su. Her mouth is as sweet as honey, she's so good at sweet talk."
Hear the words.
Yu Huan selectively ignored Sister Ru's presence and turned to talk about serious matters with Lin Yourong: "Uncle has already finished the interior design for us today and found his apprentice to be in charge of the house renovation. The construction period is about three or four months, and it should be completed before next summer."
Lin Yourong smiled broadly: "Really? We'll have a new house to live in in a few months!"
"Uh……"
Seeing her excited expression, Yu Huan scratched his head and reminded her:
"The house has just been renovated and can't be lived in yet. It needs to be left for at least half a year to remove formaldehyde and benzene."
"Oh, that seems so." Lin Yourong immediately lowered her head.
Seeing this, Yu Huan hurriedly said another piece of good news: "Your mother had a long talk with me today and said that she wants you to move with me to her company's apartment."
Lin Yourong raised her head, her slender fingers touching her pointed chin, and pressed one cheek close to the front camera, giving the impression that she had seen through your little scheme.
"Am I coming with you?"
Yu Huan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Otherwise what?"
"Pah!" Lin Yourong spat again: "I asked you to come and stay, and you didn't want to, but you're willing to come and stay when my mother asks you to, right?"
Yu Huan coughed and got straight to the point: "The important thing is, you're with me."
Although he has only nibbled on her lips so far, the thought of living in the same room with Lin Yourong has already made his mind wander to taking a bath with her.
On the phone screen, Lin Yourong's ears slowly flushed red.
She pouted slightly: "I'm going to put on a face mask, I'll contact you later."
"Okay—" Before Yu Huan could finish speaking, the video call was abruptly ended with a "beep".
He remained in the position of talking on the phone, forgetting to put it down.
On the screen, Yu Huan's silly grin was faintly reflected.
She didn't seem to object at all throughout the entire process?
Suddenly, a message notification sounded on her phone, breaking Yu Huan's reverie.
He initially thought it was Lin Yourong sending him another message, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Wang Xuanjiao messaging him privately.
"Brother Yu, it's like this. As one of the temporary leaders of this Lin Su fan welcome event, I've arranged for us to meet at the Shanshui Hotel near the train station at 5:20 PM. There are currently six of us, and with you, that makes seven."
In the blink of an eye, a second message arrived asking: 'Brother Yu, are you sure you want to go?'
Without hesitation, Yu Huan typed out a single word: 'Go.'
I just clicked send.
The other side replied with a funny emoji from the forum.
"Brother Yu, I'll prepare a support item for you."
Yu Huan typed a line of text with some confusion: 'What support item?'
"There are small light boards that can be raised with one hand, as well as posters. Of course, our group will also be holding up a banner."
After reading the message word by word, Yu Huan sent a classic emoji from Stephen Chow's movie "Kung Fu Hustle":
This is called a professional.
"Brother Yu, then I won't disturb your rest any longer!"
As Lin Su's husband, Yu Huan expressed his gratitude to this hardworking little bee who contributed both money and effort: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work at all!"
