The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

"Hahahahaha!"

Shen Mingxing laughed so hard that even her little hand holding the chopsticks was shaking.

Xia Zhi's face turned red.

"Oh, Dad..."

Ji Xinyue picked up a piece of beef tenderloin with chopped peppers for Shi Rong and watched her eat it happily. She seemed to suddenly remember something.

"Uncle Xia, even though Xia Zhi loves food, she and Shi Rong rarely get to eat together.

Because Xian'er likes spicy food and Xia Zhi likes sweet food, they get together, one adds a lot of spicy food and the other adds a lot of sugar.

The restaurant's kitchen was completely stunned."

"Hahahaha!"

After she mentioned this, Shen Mingxing also remembered this incident belatedly.

Thinking of that 5-star chef, with his gloomy expression at the time, I smiled even more.

"Yes! The next day, the restaurant even posted a notice specifically prohibiting Shi Rong and Xia Zhi from entering."

"Hahahaha!"

After hearing this, Shi Yang and others slapped their thighs in laughter. How could it be so funny?

……

"Yingtai, there is something I want to discuss with you."

Halfway through the meal, Huo Jiuzhou felt that it was about time.

Following the purpose of this trip, he kept a serious expression and focused his attention on Shi Rong the entire time. His burning and deep gaze returned to normal and turned to Feng Qingning.

Although the latter guessed what Huo Jiuzhou was going to say, out of respect for others, he still raised his hand and made a "please" gesture.

"Jiuzhou, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. There's no need to be so polite."

Worried that Shi Yang might turn against her in public, Feng Qingning gave her an extra warning.

"Today is New Year's Eve, and according to the Ying family's rules, we cannot have any quarrels with foreign guests.

I think Yang'er, as the pillar of the family, can understand your feelings, Jiuzhou."

Shi Yang knew that Feng Qingning's words were meant to remind him to be careful with his words and actions, so he smiled and followed her advice.

"My grandson understands."

Huo Jiuzhou nodded and got straight to the point.

“Before coming here, the old man had entrusted me with something, hoping that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he could invite the entire Ying family to visit the Huo family’s Lanting.

He also asked the younger generation to convey that before this, he had brought his family to the Ying family many times to bother them.

However, he has never let you, Madam Ying, enjoy the treatment of a guest of honor at the Huo family. Taking advantage of the auspicious opportunity of the New Year, he hopes that you will do him the honor of leading the group to stay at the Huo family's house.

Just think of it as accompanying the sick Ah Rong, going out for fun, and giving him a chance to host a banquet, that's all."

Tsk tsk tsk!

When Shi Yang heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. These nice words sounded so nice. If they hadn't come from Huo Jiuzhou's mouth, he would have almost believed them.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Huo Yan did this mostly to help his precious grandson and keep Shi Rong in the Huo family.

He even invited them to dinner... No one would believe his excuse that only makes things worse!

Fortunately, Feng Qingning spoke out to mediate in advance, otherwise, with Shi Yang's impulsive personality, he would have been furious.

In contrast to his sneer, Feng Qingning was not surprised by Huo Jiuzhou's statement. She knew very well that once Shi Rong fell ill, the Huo family would sooner or later have uncontrollable thoughts.

"Jiuzhou, I understand what you said.

Senior Brother is a very reserved person. It is an honor for the Huo family of North City to be our guest at the Ying family of East City.

In fact, we are all family, so why beat around the bush when we speak or act? If you want to take Rong'er away, do so on the premise that you can ensure that nothing happens to her.

I have no objection. After all, according to Yi Xiu, this is also a way to help her recover as soon as possible.

But to be honest, it is really inconvenient for so many people from the Ying family to visit the Huo family at the same time."

It seemed as if he knew from the beginning that Feng Qingning would reject his proposal, so Huo Jiuzhou was not in a hurry.

"Mrs. Ying, please don't misunderstand my intentions. The Huo family's move is definitely not to take Ah Rong away, but to sincerely invite everyone in the Ying family to visit my Huo family's Lanting.

To be honest, I do have my own selfish motives in this matter. Lanting has been under renovation since Arong left Beicheng.

I just wanted to change it into the style that Ah Rong likes. The reason why I was anxious to let Ah Rong go to the Huo family in North City was precisely because of this.

I want to know whether the current Lanting can make Ah Rong feel satisfied and no longer afraid of it. If not, I will repair it until she is satisfied.

For me, home is where Ah Rong is. As long as she is willing to come to Lan Ting again, even for a day, I will feel at ease."

???

Huo Jiuzhou's touching expression of his true feelings stunned not only the three men Chu, Xing and Song, but even Xie Yixiu who was listening was stunned!

Is this still the taciturn Huo Jiuzhou?

Since he met this man face to face, it seemed that even if all the days were added together, he would not have said as much as he did this time.

He really went to great lengths to get Shi Rong back.

Having said that, if Feng Qingning still refuses to comply, she will appear to be heartless and disloyal.

Before she could make a proper decision, Chu Yu spoke up at the right time and took over the conversation.

"Grandma, please agree to Jiuzhou.

Xin'er couldn't guarantee anything else for him, but it was true that Huo's Lanting had been renovating since Shi Rong left.

The whole North City knows about it, so it’s not difficult to find out.

Naturally, this invitation was not only from the Huo family, but also from the Chu, Xing and Song families, who had the same idea.

I have been in Dongcheng for quite some time. During this period, Shi Rong, Shi Yang, and everyone in the Ying family have taken great care of me and treated me like their own child.

To be honest, Xin'er is truly grateful to the Ying family. If grandma is willing to do me the honor, the Chu family will host a dinner for the Ying family on the second day of the New Year!"

Xing Jiashan nodded in agreement.

"Yes, grandma, please take everyone with you and go with us!

It's no exaggeration to say that my parents have even prepared the menu, waiting for you to visit the Xing family on the third day of the Lunar New Year."

After he finished speaking, Song Qianchen came up to Feng Qingning like a lackey and massaged her shoulders attentively.

"Grandma, please agree to let us go out and have fun for a few days, okay?

It's the New Year, you should let your uncle, aunt Mingxing and the others relax.

The Song family feast on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year is guaranteed to satisfy you! I even bought you mahjong~"

Chu Yu and Xing Jiashan were not willing to be outdone, so they followed suit, coming over to flatter Feng Qingning, serving her tea, serving her food, and massaging her.

The old woman was so annoyed by the three enthusiastic young men that she immediately looked over to Shi Yang, who was still busy feeding Shi Rong.

"What do you think, Yang'er?"

Shi Yang smiled. After all, he was not going to just the Huo family's Lanting. Since every family had a share, he could do whatever he wanted.

"Grandson listens to grandma."

Feng Qingning nodded, then looked at the elders of the three families. Seeing that they also remained neutral, she agreed.

"Okay, okay, then go ahead. Oh~ you clingy people!"

"Hahahaha!"

The goal was achieved and everyone was overjoyed.

From a certain perspective, this can be considered a disguised form of meeting the parents, right?

They thought contentedly.
