Ling Lin looked shy and looked at Wen Chi from time to time. Of course, Wen Chi had long felt her passionate gaze.
He couldnât help but feel a little puzzled. His mother had already put on such a show. Wasnât this a blind date?
He could not help but sigh in his heart. He was really unfilial. For the sake of his marriage, his parents were also worried to death. However, if he really wanted to get married, he would not mistreat himself. He would definitely find someone like-minded and he liked them as well.
Suddenly, he heard Ling Linâs voice again. âBig Brother Wen, my family just came back not long ago and we plan to live in Bin City from now on. However, Iâm still unfamiliar with the environment here. Can you show me around?â
Before he could speak, Auntie Su had already said, âLinlin, donât be ridiculous. Your Brother Wen is very busy with work. How would he have time to show you around?â
She sounded like she was reprimanding Ling Lin, but it didnât sound real. She was just reminding Ling Lin to be well-mannered.
Wen Chi could not say anything and could only nod.
Mrs. Wen came out and happened to hear what was going on. She said excitedly, âItâs okay, Wen Chi is free these few days. He just came back from a business trip, so he can bring Linlin around. Su Mei, look, we havenât seen each other for almost ten years, right? Time passed so quickly. The last time I saw Linlin, she was still in junior high school. Now, sheâs a big girl.â
Mrs. Wen smiled.
âYeah, itâs all because of her fatherâs job. He was transferred everywhere, and we had to follow him. Now that heâs finally transferred back to Bin City, we can see each other often in the future,â Su Mei sighed.
Mrs. Wen nodded happily. She and Su Mei had grown up together. Before they got married, they were inseparable. After they got married, they kept in touch. When they moved out of the city, they rarely saw each other. However, they still kept in touch on the phone.
It wasnât easy for her good friend to come back, and her daughter had also come back. She looked slim and elegant, like a daughter from a noble family.
She had watched Linlin grow up. Linlin graduated from a famous university and was now a fashion designer. She had only graduated for two years and was already in an important position. It could be seen how outstanding she was.
She suddenly remembered the joke she had with Su Mei. If one of them had a boy and the other a girl, they would be engaged when they were young. That way, they would be closer.
If they were both girls or boys, they would become sisters or brothers.
Although it was a joke, it was not impossible. After all, Wen Chi was already at the age of starting a family. She just did not know if Linlin had a boyfriend. She would inquire about it later.
âItâs great that youâre back. Iâm not that bored anymore. Look at the father and son. Theyâre both very busy. Iâm often the only one at home. Itâs very boring,â Mrs. Wen complained.
Su Mei nodded slightly. After returning to her hometown, she felt a sense of belonging.
âIn the future, if we hang out more, youâll find me annoying,â Su Mei teased.
âYouâre welcome to bother me. Haha, the food is ready. Itâs getting cold. Letâs eat and talk,â said Mrs. Wen warmly.
âMmm, it smells so good. I can definitely eat a lot.â
âEat more and try Auntieâs cooking. Girls are so considerate. I really envy you, Su Mei.â Mrs. Wenâs tone was not joking. She really felt that the girl was considerate, unlike her own son. Although he was filial, he was not considerate enough and sometimes, he was very infuriating.
Wen Chi couldnât help but roll his eyes. So he was annoying in her eyes.
ââm the one who envies you. Your son has a successful career and is elegant. Many people canât get it even if they beg for it.â Su Mei was very satisfied with Wen Chi.
