As soon as the two entered, Shen Yizhou stood up from the sofa.
"Yo, the birthday boy arrives fashionably late!"
"Perhaps someone was busy rolling between the sheets, it’s already good enough that they’ve made it here," Leng Zirui joked with a laugh on the side.
Tong Ya, who had been sitting on the sofa, immediately laughed, "Zirui, watch your mouth a bit, Xiao Qian is shy."
"Alright then," Leng Zirui put down the playing cards he was fiddling with, "then I’ll pick someone with thicker skin. Sister Tongya, Qin Lan and Huangfu Ruo are about to get married soon, my brother has found a sister-in-law, aren’t you and Brother Yizhou also due to tidy up and move in together?"
"Cut it out, can’t you be serious? You’re still single yourself, what right do you have to meddle in my business!" Tong Ya gave him a dismissive glance, then laughed and patted the seat next to her, "Xiao Qian, come, come sit, don’t mind this evil spirit. One of these days, we’ll find a Fahai to take care of him!"
"Fahai won’t do, we need a Bai Suzhen!" Shen Yizhou said with a laugh, making room for Luo Xiaoqian to sit.
As the young people chatted and joked, Father Leng had already come down from upstairs. Luo Xiaoqian immediately greeted him; Leng Zimo, who was sitting on an armchair, saw him and stood up too, "Dad, please sit here."
Hearing the long-lost word "dad," not just the people in the room, but even Leng Lin was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.
"Good, good, good!"
He said the word "good" three times before he walked over and sat down on the armchair.
Shen Yizhou and Tong Ya looked at Leng Zimo sitting next to Luo Xiaoqian and exchanged knowing smiles.
The relationship between father and son, as of today, had finally been fully restored with that one word, "dad."
