A pond full of blooming flowers, an ultimate addiction.

Jiang Yang had booked a private room in advance, located downstairs from Chi Ruiche's company. Jiang Yi, wearing a baseball cap and keeping his head down, followed behind Chi Ruiche.

"Brother, are all you big CEOs this free?" Jiang Yi wondered if it was just a coincidence that these guys were having dinner together today.

"You heartless little brat, it's only because you're back that we have to keep you company."

Abu bluntly stated that since they hadn't seen her for so long, these grown men had all come together on their own initiative, so they would treat this meal to her as a welcome-back dinner.

"Sigh, I'm still as likable as ever." Jiang Yi shrugged, with a cheeky expression.

Chi Ruiche couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Jiang Yi's appearance; seeing Jiang Yi always made him feel good.

Abu shook his head. "How could you be so shameless as to say that?"

Abu and Jiang Yi are about the same age and love to bicker. Neither of them will back down verbally, and they used to fight often when they were younger.

Soon all the dishes were served, and everyone relaxed. Lü Haotian poured each of them a glass of Riesling, while Chi Ruiche slowly ladled a bowl of sweet soup for Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi glanced at Chi Ruiche, who met her gaze and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it anymore?"

Chi Ruiche remembered her likes and dislikes from before, but since they hadn't seen each other for three years, he wondered if they had changed.

No, I like it.

Jiang Yi quickly took a sip of the sweet soup; it was sweet but not cloying. She was pleasantly surprised; he remembered that she loved sweet soup.

"Little Four, does Grandpa Jiang know you're back this time?"

Abu picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. He thought it was pretty good, so he picked up another piece and gave it to Jiang Yi.

"know."

Jiang Yi lowered his head and took a sip of wine. Perhaps feeling guilty, he drank too quickly and choked, coughing violently, "Cough-cough-"

"You came back secretly, didn't you?" Lü Haotian directly exposed Jiang Yi's lie.

Chi Ruiche handed her a glass of water and gently patted her back.

Jiang Yi recovered and glared at Lü Haotian. "How could I possibly get on the plane without Grandpa's permission?"

Jiang Yi did not intend to tell the truth.

"Then I'll take you to a bar and let you experience the new charm of Shanghai."

Abu loved to hang out with Jiang Yi, which always drew criticism from their parents.

Jiang Yang glanced at Jiang Yi. This kid had secretly run back while his grandfather was away from the country. If his grandfather received the news now, he would come to arrest him at any time.

The whole family revered their grandfather, and no one dared to contradict his decisions, just like three years ago when Jiang Yi went to New Zealand, despite her mother's disagreement.

"Great! I'm going to really enjoy it."

Jiang Yi had finally waited for her grandfather to return to China, but because of the renovation of the old house, it wouldn't be completed so quickly. She acted first and informed him later, so even if he found out, it would be too late.

After the group finished eating, the waiter brought them a cup of tea. Abu let out a satisfied burp and leaned back comfortably in his chair.

"Little Si, Third Brother will take you to a fun place this afternoon."

Abu looked at Jiang Yi with a mischievous grin. He was just worried about not being able to find anyone, and he couldn't let Jiang Yi, who had delivered himself to his doorstep, slip by.

"Okay." Jiang Yi didn't want to stay in Chi Ruiche's office any longer. "Then what about you guys, Chi?"

"I have a meeting this afternoon. I'll have Abu lead you around. I'll come find you after the meeting."

Chi Ruiche glanced at his watch; it was almost time. He got up and left.

Jiang Yang and Lü Haotian both had things to do in the afternoon. Seeing that Abu was with Jiang Yi, they felt relieved and went back to work. However, when Jiang Yang left, he glared at Jiang Yi, who pouted and pretended not to see it.

"Walk."

Abu was dressed in sportswear, seemingly having made prior arrangements, and Jiang Yi happily followed him.
