Mother Zhang immediately scolded, "How can you say we have nothing in common if you haven't even spent time together?"
“Yes.” Zhang Liangzhi nodded. “Indeed, I was too subjective in my judgment. But I’m not wrong either. Miss Ran and I are not familiar with each other. We can only get along as friends at the beginning. If it is suitable later, it is not too late to change it.”
Zhang Liangzhi's words made a lot of sense. Everyone only had a first impression of each other, didn't know each other's personalities, and didn't take advantage of the woman in any way.
Both sets of parents were educated people, so they naturally understood what he was saying. Ran's father was very satisfied with Zhang Liangzhi's education and nodded repeatedly.
Soon it was time for dinner, and Rong Changqing, Lu Yunxi, and Long Lin'er came in together, instantly adding a lot of vibrant color to the room.
Ran Wenqi was also stunned when she saw Rong Changqing and Lu Yunxi. Although Zhang Liang had a good appearance, she had seen him since she was a child and was somewhat immune to it.
Then she saw two other outstanding men, especially Rong Changqing, whose lazy handsomeness fascinated her.
"You're here?" Lu Qianqian rushed out of the kitchen upon hearing the voice, ran to Rong Changqing's side, took his arm, and snuggled close to him affectionately. "Why do you have to come at mealtime? Couldn't you have come earlier?"
Upon seeing this, Ran Wenqi withdrew her outburst of gaze.
"Of course, we should only come over when it's mealtime." Long Lin'er answered arrogantly for Rong Changqing, then glared at Zhang Liangzhi with a very displeased look and said, "You came uninvited, Attorney Zhang, won't you be angry?"
Zhang Liangzhi could be sharp-tongued in front of anyone, but when facing Long Lin'er, his mouth would get tied in knots.
"I'm not angry." After holding it in for a long time, she finally managed to squeeze out three words.
Long Lin'er was clearly unhappy. She snorted and walked past him toward the dining table. Only when she saw the four elders did she greet them politely.
Both Zhang's parents and Ran's parents were a bit confused. How did a simple blind date turn into a big dinner party?
"Let me introduce you," Zhang Liangzhi immediately stepped forward to introduce, "This is the master of the Imperial Palace, Rong Ershao, Rong Changqing."
When Ran Wenqi heard the name Rong Changqing, her eyes lit up immediately, as if she had seen a mountain of gold.
She had naturally heard of Rong Ershao's name before, but she never expected to actually meet him in person!
Moreover, the entire imperial palace actually belonged to him!
That's incredibly wealthy.
"This is Lu Yunxi, who lives in Villa No. 7. She is my friend and neighbor."
Ran Wenqi gasped again. Lu Yunxi! This is the heir of the Lu family!
"This is Long Lin'er, she lives in villa number ten, she's my neighbor." When Zhang Liangzhi introduced Long Lin'er, he paused a few times, almost stammering.
Ran Wenqi had also heard of Long Lin'er's reputation; the eldest daughter of the Long family, she was truly blessed with good fortune in her birth. She was very envious.
"Attorney Zhang, you haven't finished speaking, have you?" Long Lin'er's voice was slightly cold as she spoke, "Why don't you say that I'm your ex?"
Suddenly!
The world is quiet.
Ran Wenqi's face immediately turned from red to white, and Ran's parents were also somewhat displeased, while Zhang's parents were completely baffled as to what had happened.
Their son did have a girlfriend before, could it be this Miss Long?
"Cough cough..." Lu Qianqian felt that Long Lin'er's words were too damaging, but if this continued, would they still eat hot pot?
"Uncles and aunties, the hot pot broth is boiling! Everyone, hurry up and put in the food. We've been busy all afternoon just to show off our cooking skills to you. Eat up, eat up!"
The four elders also took the opportunity offered by Lu Qianqian to back down.
Zhang Liangzhi continued by introducing his parents and the three members of the Ran family.
However, the atmosphere was no longer as harmonious as before. Everyone had their own thoughts, especially the Ran family of three, who kept glancing back and forth at Long Lin'er.
Long Lin'er didn't care at all and continued to choose her favorite dishes to put into the pot to cook rice.
Lu Qianqian nudged Rong Changqing's arm with her elbow, whispering, "Is this what you mean by watching a show?"
"Yes!" Rong Changqing nodded.
Lu Qianqian took a deep breath, gritting her teeth in anger: "What's so interesting about this? How can we enjoy hot pot in this kind of atmosphere?"
“Qianqian, as Liangzhi’s good friend and neighbor, we should help him out. Besides, Liangzhi has handled many cases for you for free.”
"Cough cough..." She almost choked on the hot water and said, "I thought you paid the bill!"
"of course not."
"Then what should I do?"
"Let's look at Yunxi's first."
"Ok?"
"Is this your first time visiting the capital, Uncle and Aunt?" Lu Yunxi said, sitting opposite Ran's parents.
Ran's parents were surprised that the young man in front of them would suddenly speak to them. "Yes, it's my first time here."
"I happen to be free tomorrow, so I'll take you out for some fun as a way of showing hospitality."
Faced with Lu Yunxi's invitation, Ran's parents were even more surprised and somewhat at a loss for words. "This is so embarrassing."
“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. I’m Liangzhi’s brother too. Helping out is no big deal.” Lu Yunxi then looked at Ran Wenqi, his peach blossom eyes full of gentleness. “Miss Ran, please come along too.”
Ran Wenqi's face turned from white to red again, and she lowered her head shyly.
Now it was Zhang's parents' turn to be dizzy. What was going on? Was this still their son's blind date?
They are Zhang Liangzhi's parents. As Zhang Liangzhi's friends, shouldn't you invite them first before inviting others?
Lu Qianqian was practically lying on Rong Changqing, laughing until her stomach hurt: "Don't tell me that Young Master Lu is selling his body to help his brother."
"Maybe he'd actually be willing?"
At this moment, Ran's parents also came to their senses and realized that something was wrong. The Zhang family's parents were still there. Ran's father immediately said with a smile, "It's so good that Liangzhi has such an outstanding friend."
“That’s because he’s outstanding.” Long Lin’er said casually as she ate a piece of beef. “If his wife didn’t have enough ability and couldn’t stand on the same level as him, they would be unhappy after marriage.”
A group of people looked at Long Lin'er with strange eyes once again. Was this person here to cause trouble?
Ran Wenqi's eyes gradually reddened, and she looked at her parents with a wronged expression, saying, "I know I'm not good enough, but the sea of knowledge is boundless, and I will continue to study hard. No matter whether I can be with Brother Liangzhi in the future, I will try my best to become better."
Lu Qianqian gave her a thumbs up in her heart. This statement was indeed true: one should never stop learning and constantly improve one's experience and abilities.
but.
These words should be said to one's parents at home. Saying them in front of everyone is just like Long Lin'er, implying something else.
