I'm in love

Chapter 26 Easing Relations 1

With heavy and unhappy moods, everyone scattered like a flock of frightened birds and returned to Ode to Joy. Tan Zongming carefully protected Lin Yan and returned to Ode to Joy together. As the Spring Festival approached, Lin Yan fell into deep thought, recalling every detail that happened in the villa, and planned to have a good meal with them, hoping to use this opportunity to ease the current tense atmosphere.

Ever since the incident with Qu Xiaoxiao at the villa, the relationship between the six beauties had taken a sharp turn for the worse and reached a freezing point. Even Andy, who was always the most insensitive to interpersonal relationships, could keenly sense the abnormal atmosphere.

Lin Yan knew that although Fan Shengmei was a little vain at times, it was not a serious sin. Overall, she had a good impression of Fan Shengmei. Besides, if the relationship between neighbors was too tense, it would be difficult for everyone to live in harmony in the future.

In order to allow everyone to speak freely and have fun, Lin Yan took great pains to invite everyone to her home for dinner. Although Lin Yan is not very good at cooking, this does not bother her at all - after all, the power of money is endless! Nowadays, many restaurants have launched very considerate home cooking services, and Lin Yan's home is fully equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils and household appliances. After the chef arrives, it only takes two hours for a table full of mouth-watering delicacies to be presented in front of you.

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer were the first to arrive at the Lin family. The reason was simple: today was the weekend and they did not need to commute to the company.

Lin Yan: "By the way, little earthworm, Guan Guan said that you are in love, what about the boy?" When saying this, Lin Yan smiled, and her eyes revealed a hint of curiosity and expectation.

When Qiu Yingying heard Lin Yan mention this topic, she was originally happily telling about the interesting things she had encountered recently, but suddenly she was like being cast under a spell, her mouth opened wide, but she couldn't make a sound. A faint blush appeared on her face. She was always carefree and casual, but at this moment she actually showed some shyness and timidity of a girl.

After a long while, Qiu Yingying stammered, "Oh, don't... don't talk nonsense! He's not my boyfriend yet, we haven't even started dating yet! But... but he is really a nice person." When she said this, the corners of Qiu Yingying's mouth rose unconsciously, and her eyes sparkled with happiness.

Then, she took a deep breath, calmed down her excitement, and continued to introduce him to Lin Yan: "His name is Ying Qin, and he is a programmer. We met in a coffee shop. I went to buy coffee and found that I left my wallet at the company. When I was anxious, he paid for me. Later, we met there a few more times and gradually became familiar with each other. Maybe he thought we were from the same hometown, so he took good care of me."

Lin Yan listened carefully to Qiu Yingying's story and nodded gently to show her understanding. She noticed the change in Qiu Yingying's expression when she spoke, and couldn't help but feel happy for her. At this time, Lin Yan stood up, went to the kitchen to get a bottle of soda, opened the bottle cap, and poured a full cup for Qiu Yingying. In fact, Lin Yan's family didn't have soda. She knew that Qiu Yingying didn't like drinking, so she specially prepared some drinks suitable for girls in advance.

After Qiu Yingying gulped down a big gulp of soda, she burped. Fan Shengmei happened to come over and joined their conversation.

Qiu Yingying asked curiously, "Guan Guan, why don't you talk about me? Why do you only talk about me and not your senior brother Lin? I think he is very attentive to you! And I think senior brother Lin is really nice! Not only are you classmates from the same school, but you are also from the same hometown. You know each other inside and out. Senior brother Lin is a civil servant with a very stable job! Besides, he has both a car and a house in Shanghai. If it were me, I would have agreed to be with him a long time ago!" Qiu Yingying has always been outspoken and casual, but she did not notice the envy and jealousy that flashed across Fan Shengmei's face when she mentioned that senior brother Lin had a house and a car.

After the last incident, Wang Baichuan took the initiative to find Fan Shengmei and apologize to her. At this moment, Fan Shengmei clearly realized that as time passed, she was no longer young and beautiful, but Wang Baichuan was undoubtedly still one of the few high-quality targets she could hold. More importantly, Wang Baichuan was obedient to her and obeyed her in every way.

If time could go back to the past, a man like Wang Baichuan would never enter Fan Shengmei's sight. However, times have changed, and facing the current difficult situation and the huge pressure from her family's frequent urging for remittances, she had to make compromises and concessions, and appropriately lower her standards for choosing a spouse.

Compared to Qiu Yingying's passionate attitude and her unconcealed envy, Guan Juer on the side showed a sense of discomfort as she found it difficult to fit in.
