Spring River Chasing the Moon

Chapter 109 The Eve of the Banquet

The biggest gossip in Nancheng recently is that the Nan family changed their previous low-key style to celebrate the hostess's birthday and sent invitations to all the aristocratic families in Nancheng.

Everyone was discussing and saying that Nanzhou Yue loved his wife the most. They never expected that one day he would go to such an extent for her.

There were rumors all over the place, and people believed everything they heard, saying all sorts of things.

Only the Nan and Chen families remained indifferent, and didn't care what outsiders speculated, because Luo Zhong finally went home on vacation.

Luo Zhong returned to Chen's house as soon as possible. He missed Chen Lili and Luo Youyou very much.

"father!"

Luo Youyou didn't know what time Luo Zhong would be home today. She had been looking around in the yard. When she saw Luo Zhong, she immediately ran over, threw herself on him, and hugged him tightly.

Luo Zhong also squatted down and picked up Luo Youyou.

"Dad, you seem a little darker."

Luo Youyou looked at Luo Zhong and felt that he was not only darker but also thinner than the last time they met. However, he looked younger and in better spirits.

Luo Zhong looked at his arms and found that they were indeed a lot darker.

"Yeah, Dad has been out doing missions lately and he's been exposed to the sun. Does that mean Dad won't look good if he gets tanned?"

Luo Youyou stretched out her little hand and touched Luo Zhong's cheek. She leaned her head on Luo Zhong's shoulder, shook her head and said, "Dad will always be the best in my heart."

Luo Zhong carried Luo Youyou into the house, and Luo Youyou couldn't wait and shouted loudly.

"Mom, grandpa and grandma, Dad is back."

Chen Lili and Chen Ze were washing and preparing vegetables in the kitchen. When they heard Luo Youyou's voice, they hurried out to see what was going on.

"Mom and Dad, Li Li, I'm back."

Chen Lili stepped forward and took the luggage bag from his hand. "Are you tired from the journey?"

Luo Zhong looked at his wife's beautiful face and shook his head, "I'm not tired. I'm just so happy just thinking about going home."

For Luo Zhong, his mentality this time going home is completely different from the last time.

This time when he returned home, he was more expectant and excited. He had never been so eager for the car to arrive home soon.

"Ah Zhong, have you had breakfast?"

Li Muzhi was worried that Luo Zhong would rush back from the northern suburbs early in the morning without even having breakfast.

"Mom, I ate before I came out." Luo Zhong replied.

"Okay, put the things upstairs and go take a rest first. It's still early for lunch."

After Li Muzhi gave his instructions, he winked and pulled Chen Ze, who wanted to say something, back to the kitchen, leaving the space to the young couple.

"Oh, Dad, Xiaomei is here, and so is her grandma."

Luo Youyou was afraid that Luo Zhong was too tired, so she asked him to let her down and talked happily while holding his hand.

Luo Zhong was a little confused and looked at Chen Lili, as if asking what was going on.

"When Big Brother goes to Haicheng, we ask him to bring Xiaomei and the others over to play for a few days."

Chen Lili explained.

"Oh, where are they?"

Luo Zhong looked around but didn't see Xiaomei and the others.

"Youyou said that Xiaomei's grandmother seemed unwell, but was too embarrassed to tell us. We lied to her that the hospital had free physical examinations today, so we asked my eldest sister to take them to Jinghe Hospital, and Xiaomei also did some basic examinations while we were there."

"I didn't expect that Youyou is so caring. You don't know that after Xiaomei and the others came, Youyou took care of them. She arranged everything properly, and we all followed her arrangements."

Speaking of Luo Youyou's recent performance, Chen Lili is really proud. The whole family didn't expect her to be so thoughtful.

Luo Zhong was also very surprised and reached out to touch Luo Youyou's hair.

"We have been so well behaved recently. Daddy is very happy."

Luo Youyou felt a little embarrassed by such straightforward praise.

"Okay, go to your room and rest for a while. You came back from the bus early this morning. Did you get a good rest last night?"

Luo Zhong nodded. He had been very busy recently and fell asleep almost immediately every day. The only good thing was that his sleep quality was very high and he could sleep until dawn.

After entering the room, Luo Zhong took a set of home clothes from the closet and went to the bathroom. "I'm going to wash my face first and change into something more comfortable."

Chen Lili was not idle either. He packed up the clothes and items he brought back and put them away one by one.

Luo Youyou sat obediently aside, waiting for Luo Zhong to come out after washing up.

After a while, there was a knock on the door and Li Muzhi pushed it open and came in.

"Where's Ah Zhong?"

After looking around the room, Li Muzhi didn't find Luo Zhong.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Luo Zhong just came out of the bathroom and saw Li Muzhi looking for him.

"Ah Zhong, your parents are here."

Li Muzhi didn't expect that Nanzhou Yue and Zhu Yuying would also come today. As soon as Luo Zhong went upstairs, the Nan family's car stopped at the gate of the yard, and Nan Youmin's family also came with them.

When he heard that his parents were coming, Luo Zhong was stunned at first, then he slowly reacted.

"Then please ask them to wait for a moment while I dry my hair first."

When he was washing his face just now, the front of his hair was also wet. Luo Zhong found a towel and started wiping his hair.

"Should I go downstairs and greet your parents first?"

Chen Lili took the towel from Luo Zhong's hand and helped him wipe his hair, but she was worried that it would be bad if she didn't go downstairs.

"It's okay, we can just go down together. I think they are all good people and won't care about this."

Luo Youyou also agreed with Luo Zhong's statement. The Nan family are really good people. Although they are in high positions, they never make people afraid to approach them.

Except for her grandfather, Nanzhou Yue.

When he doesn't speak occasionally, he is still a little serious.

Soon, Chen Lili helped to tidy up Luo Zhong's hair, and the family of three went downstairs together.

In the living room, Nanzhou Yue and Zhu Yuying were chatting with Chen Ze and others.

Nan Youmin brought his wife Wang Jing and two children to meet Luo Zhong's family today.

Seeing Luo Zhong and the others coming down the stairs, Zhu Yuying hurried up and reached out to hold Luo Zhong's hand.

"It's only been a few days, how come you've lost so much weight?"

Zhu Yuying was heartbroken. This child had not been with her since he was a child. He was not like this when she saw him last time on his birthday. How come he has lost so much weight this time?

"I'm fine. I just got a lot darker, so I look thinner. Actually, my weight hasn't changed much."

Luo Zhong explained.

But Zhu Yuying didn't believe it. She looked at it over and over again, and had already silently thought about how to nourish Luo Zhong's body in the next few days.

"Mom and Dad, is he my uncle?"

Nan Sibei is Nan Youmin's eldest daughter. Before Nan Yinbei was born, she was the only girl in her generation and was loved by everyone.

She had always hoped to have a younger sister who could be with her. However, after Nan Yinbei was born, their interests and hobbies were very different: Nan Yinbei liked beautiful gadgets and liked to go out and play, while Nan Sibei preferred to stay at home and read books.

When she heard that her uncle was someone else, her first reaction was to ask her father, "Does the real uncle have children? Is it a brother or a sister?"

When Nan Youmin told her that it was a younger sister, she was so happy. But Nan Youmin said that this younger sister was a little younger than Nan Yinbei. Nan Sibei was very shocked. Such a little girl was probably like Nan Yinbei, who only liked children's toys.

Wang Jing stared at Luo Zhong and the others with curiosity, but she actually didn't quite understand.

She felt that the recent events in her family could be written into a piece of gossip news. It turned out that her brother-in-law Nan Younian was not born to her parents-in-law.

"Well, that's my uncle, go say hello."

Nan Sibei felt that her uncle's eyes were very similar to her grandfather's. The person she admired most since she was a child was Nanzhou Yue, and she also had an inexplicable liking for Luo Zhong.

He then pulled his younger brother Nan Zhili and walked in front of Luo Zhong.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, my name is Nan Sibei."

"This is my younger brother, Nan Zhili."

Nan Zhili usually doesn't talk much, but his father said that this is his uncle and a family member. He looked up and looked at Luo Zhong seriously and greeted him politely.

"Hello, uncle, hello, aunt."
