Qin Buyu finished squeezing the watermelon juice, and Liang Yuchen also washed the fruit. The two came out of the kitchen to greet the guests for dinner. Chen Junyan got up and called Fang Qingqing and the others.
Yang Nieyuan looked at Liang Yuchen, who was wearing an apron, with surprise and a hint of approval in his eyes.
The image of Liang Yuchen was completely different from the first time Yang Nieyuan met him.
At that time, he was a rich second generation who spent a lot of money, but now he has become a virtuous and capable man. The contrast is really big.
After Qin Buyu greeted the guests to sit down, he went back to the kitchen to make dipping sauce for everyone. Seeing that Liang Yuchen wanted to follow her in again, he said softly: "You can eat with the guests first. I'll be ready in a moment."
Liang Yuchen sat down obediently.
Ye Xi watched the interaction between Liang Yuchen and Qin Buyu and found it very interesting. He couldn't help but lean into Fang Qingqing's ear and said, "These two look very much like a couple. It seems like your brother is really in trouble."
Fang Qingqing saw the look of gloating on her face, and said sarcastically: "Yeah, unlike you and my brother, we don't look like husband and wife at all."
Ye Xi was so angry that she wanted to hit her again.
Chen Junyan saw that the two girls were just fine as if they were one person, but in the blink of an eye they were about to start a fight. He quickly stood up and advised: "If you have something to say, please speak it carefully, don't hurt the harmony."
However, Yang Nie Yuan pulled him to sit down and said, "Eat yours. Ignore them. Just pinch them when they meet. You're used to it."
When Ye Xi saw it, she said sourly to Fang Qingqing: "Okay, everyone is feeling sad."
Fang Qingqing rolled her eyes at her, said nothing, and turned to cook beef for the two children.
Nian Nian and En En felt so happy when they saw how lively their home was, and their appetites improved a lot.
Liang Yuchen asked Chen Junyan and Yang Nieyuan if they wanted to drink.
"I drove here, so forget it." Yang Nieyuan waved his hand.
"Brother, just go back and let Ye Xi drive." Fang Qingqing said, and Ye Xi nodded in agreement.
Seeing that Yang Nieyuan didn't say anything else, Liang Yuchen got up and went to the wine cabinet to get a bottle of white wine and a bottle of red wine. He was about to ask the guest whether he wanted to drink white wine or red wine, but Qin Buyu came out of the kitchen and saw that he had a bottle of red wine in his hand. The wine blurted out: "You have a bad stomach, drink less."
After saying this, she realized that she was in front of so many outsiders, and her face turned red. She put the sauce on the table and went back to the kitchen.
"Then drink some red wine." Liang Yuchen said and handed the red wine to Chen Junyan for him to drink. He turned around and put the white wine back into the wine cabinet.
Women and children drink juice as usual.
Liang Yuchen poured half a glass of wine for Chen Junyan and Yang Nieyuan each, and poured a third of a glass for himself. Then he raised his glass and said, "I would like to toast everyone. Thank you for taking care of Buyu and the two children. From now on, you will all be my friends, Liang Yuchen."
After speaking, he drank the wine in one gulp.
Qin Buyu sat next to him, thinking that he drank too fast, could his stomach bear it? But looking at the table full of people, I swallowed the words that came to my mouth.
Yang Nie Yuan also raised his glass and said, "As long as you treat Buyu well, you are my friend, but if you treat her badly, I won't be polite." He drank the wine in one gulp.
Ye Xi couldn't help but said: "Senior, you can just drink. I'm only responsible for driving, not taking care of drunk people."
"Don't worry, I've never seen my brother drunk once." Fang Qingqing immediately retorted.
Seeing that both of them had drank, Chen Junyan had no choice but to raise his glass and said, "Then I won't say anything and just do it." After that, he drank it all in one gulp.
"The way you drink is a waste of such good wine." Ye Xi said, "This bottle of wine costs tens of thousands of dollars."
Qin Buyu and Fang Qingqing clicked their tongues after hearing this.
But Liang Yuchen shook his head and said: "What matters about wine is not the price, nor the way to drink it, but who you drink it with, drink it with friends, no matter how expensive the wine is, it is not a waste." After that, he started pouring the wine again.
"Don't just drink and eat more food." Qin Buyu advised. She was not afraid of wasting money, but she was really worried about Liang Yuchen's health.
Fortunately, the next three men did not take a sip like before, but took small sips normally, and she felt a little relieved.
How refreshing it is to eat hot pot in an air-conditioned room in the summer.
Qin Buyu's own dipping sauce was well received by everyone. Everyone put down their chopsticks after they were almost full, which was very honorable to the hostess. Qin Buyu was very happy when he saw that the ingredients he had prepared were almost eaten. He felt that he had bought so many ingredients in the supermarket just now and finally there was no waste.
After dinner, Liang Yuchen wanted to help Qin Buyu clear the table, but she refused.
"I can do it alone." She said, "You can sit and chat with Brother Yuan and the others for a while."
Seeing Liang Yuchen and Brother Yuan sitting together is what she is most happy to see happen.
Liang Yuchen didn't insist anymore, turned around and went to the living room, asking Yang Nieyuan if he wanted to continue the chess game from the last time?
Yang Nieyuan was a little surprised and asked him: "Do you still remember the chess game that day?"
"I took a photo." Liang Yuchen shook his phone and said.
The two then reset the chess game, while Chen Junyan made tea for them and watched the game.
Qin Buyu packed up the kitchen and went to Nian Nian and En En's bedroom first. Seeing that they were having fun with Fang Qingqing and Ye Xi, he didn't bother them. He turned around and went out to the living room to watch Liang Yuchen and Yang Nieyuan play chess.
She couldn't tell whether to win or lose, so she asked Chen Junyan: "Can you do it?"
"Know a little." Chen Junyan said, at least he could see that Liang Yuchen was at a disadvantage, but after Qin Buyu arrived, he made a few beautiful moves and turned the situation around.
"You win." After Yang Nieyuan said that, he stood up and said goodbye to Qin Buyu, saying that he would not bother him if he had something to do tomorrow.
Upon seeing this, Chen Junyan stood up and said it was getting late and it was time to go back.
Qin Buyu went to call Fang Qingqing and Ye Xi, and the two children also ran out.
"Mom, should we sleep here or go home today?" Enen asked her mother.
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Qin Buyu, who was so embarrassed that she was speechless for a long time.
"Let's go back with Aunt Qingqing." She finally said softly, not daring to look at Liang Yuchen.
Although Liang Yuchen felt a little disappointed, he didn't show it on his face. He went up and picked up the two children and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the car."
The group of people followed him out of the door, Qin Buyu walked at the end and closed the door.
Ye Xi and Yang Nieyuan drove away first.
Liang Yuchen carried the two children into the car, and Qin Buyu followed suit. Chen Junyan sat in the passenger seat and Xiaoxiao was responsible for driving.
"Dad, don't forget to take us out to play this weekend." Enen asked her father worriedly.
"Okay, dad must remember."
"If you drink, go back and rest early." Qin Buyu said.
Liang Yuchen nodded, "Give me news when you get home."
"good."
After the car disappeared from Liang Yuchen's sight, he turned around and walked back. The watery moonlight poured down, making the shadow behind him grow longer.
