"Busy, sure you’ll run yourself into the ground!" Chen Shan was genuinely disappointed, "If I were you, breaking up with Lan Li is just breaking up. Hard to find three-legged toads, but there certainly isn’t just one two-legged man in the world like Lan Li! If I were you, I’d imdiately find soone new to piss Lan Li off, make him die of jealousy! Best to hurry up and get married, have a baby, and let your child call him Uncle Lan!"
"With all your skills, your..."
Before Ding Jinshi could say the na, Chen Shan glared at Ding Jinshi with gritted teeth, "If you dare to say that dog of a man’s na, I’ll strangle you right now! Dealing with you is already making upset, and you want to bring up sothing even more upsetting?"
Ding Jinshi wisely shut her mouth and quickly changed the subject, "Have you ordered yet? If not, hurry and call the waiter to order, and if you have, get the waiter to serve the food." She patted her stomach, "Actually, I’m really hungry."
"Cousin has gotten chubby after a few years abroad." Zhou Chenyue was probably the most tactless at the table, speaking quite bluntly, "I was always worried cousin would be affected, but seeing her put on so weight, it looks like she’s been doing well overseas."
"No respect for elders?" Ding Jinshi waved a fist at Zhou Chenyue, "Looking for a beating?"
But she couldn’t deny it — she truly had gained weight. After breaking up with Lan Li, she returned to school and initially lost weight drastically, especially during her illness. But ever since Ding Long started taking care of her, she couldn’t resist when Ding Long sent boxes of food from their holand every two or three months, enough for her to eat for quite a while. After two or three years of that, if she hadn’t gained weight, she’d be letting Ding Long down.
"Jinshi has put on a bit, but looks quite healthy." Zhou Hongjin smiled lightly as he continued, "It’s good you’re back; we were worried you wouldn’t return after graduating."
"Soone pretty much wasn’t planning to co back if Boss Ding hadn’t personally invited them, hehe..." The implication in Chen Shan’s ’hehe’ was clear.
This group of people were all forr friends, and chatting while eating didn’t fully satisfy them. Once they’d finished eating, they noisily decided to head to a nightclub to get a room, then one by one left the private room for the nightclub.
Sotis events unfold in such a way that you can’t tell if it’s a stroke of luck or a curse.
As soon as the group stepped outside, they ran into Gu En and Lan Li, among others. Initially, these people hung out with Gu En and Lan Li, but tonight was for welcoming Ding Jinshi back ho, so naturally, everyone tacitly agreed not to invite Gu En or Lan Li, who had just returned to the capital.
Nonetheless, they hadn’t expected that the Lan Family and Gu Family would be dining here, leading to an unexpected encounter.
Such is fate — the more you dread seeing soone, the more unexpectedly that person appears.
Among the Gu Family and Lan Family, the first person Ding Jinshi spotted was Lan Li in military uniform. He’d beco much darker after several years, his angular face devoid of expression, except his lips were pressed into a thin line, leaving no clue as to what he was thinking.
Ding Jinshi and Lan Li were like this, staring at each other across their past friends and elders, neither making a move to greet but neither willing to break the stare first.
Until Grandma Gu spoke, prompting Lan Li to imdiately avert his gaze, his expression cool as if looking at a stranger.
