"Yangzi, why are you only back now? If you didn't return soon, we would have prepared to go to a restaurant."
Li Minxi complained as soon as she saw Guo Xuyang.
"Let's eat at home, don't go out. Didn't I have the ingredients delivered these past two days?" Guo Xuyang said.
"Besides, your health isn't fully recovered yet. Although you're out of confinement, you still need to be careful," he added.
"Little Guo is right, let's eat at home," Xu Yifan said.
"Yes, eating at home is much quieter than outside," Li Shengyun stated.
"So, my parents have said, shall we all eat at home?"
"Let's eat at home. Wu Jia, go help in the kitchen and ask the chef to hurry up," Guo Xuyang instructed.
"I'll go right away." Wu Jia said, placing the little Guo Yili in her arms into Li Minxi's embrace.
"Give her to me, let me hold her for a while," Xu Yifan said, taking the baby.
"At first glance, she doesn't look like a baby who just turned a month old. If you said she was a hundred days old, people would believe you."
"It's mainly because Xiao Xi fed her so well. Xiao Xi suffered a lot this past month," Wu Shangqing remarked.
"Mom, please don't say that. If you hadn't been here to keep me company, I would have been driven mad. Some people disappear without a trace, and after a short while back, they run off again."
Li Minxi gave Guo Xuyang a sidelong glance.
"Xiao Guo is busy, isn't he? Don't complain about him," Xu Yifan said.
"If it weren't for Xiao Guo this time, your father wouldn't have known how much trouble he would have been in."
"He's just doing what he should, who else but your son-in-law is he?"
"The food is ready, let's eat," Wu Jia said, returning.
"So soon?"
"They were all semi-finished, easy to prepare."
"Uncle, Aunt, I had some matters to attend to this afternoon and couldn't pick you up. I apologize," Guo Xuyang said, raising his wine glass.
"It's alright, we've all arrived home safely, haven't we?" Li Shengyun replied.
"I truly owe you this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know how I died."
"It's mainly because President Jiang had foresight, I merely followed suit."
"Regardless, I must thank you."
"Uncle, please don't be so polite. I'll toast you."
Guo Xuyang downed the wine in his glass. Li Shengyun followed suit without hesitation, finishing his drink.
"Drink a little less. How old are you, to still be acting like a young man?" Xu Yifan said, nudging him.
"It's alright, I'm happy today. I'm a grandfather now," Li Shengyun said.
"Let's give the meeting gift today."
"Uncle, you don't need to be so polite. Xiao Xi has money, she doesn't need yours."
"Your affairs are yours, and our feelings are ours. It's not a matter of more or less."
"Thank you, Uncle."
"Why are you being so polite? Father is giving this to his daughter, not to you."
Li Minxi shot Guo Xuyang a look.
"My daughter is just not good at speaking, so I have to help her," Guo Xuyang said.
"You're the only one who knows how to talk."
"Come, come, everyone, eat your dishes," Wu Shangqing quickly urged.
Everyone ate harmoniously, and the evening passed by quickly.
"I say, Xiao Jun, why haven't those women you mentioned arrived yet?"
The bald man asked, looking at the monitor.
"Are they at some bar drinking? Shall we wait a little longer?"
"Wait for what? I've already had almost two jin. I'm not playing today, maybe another time. Anyway, they live here, they can't run away. I'm leaving."
"Big Brother, aren't we waiting any longer?"
"No more waiting. I'm off." The bald man waved and staggered out of the property management office.
