The two of them went downstairs and saw Lu Licheng staring at the family portrait hanging in the small living room.
Huo Shanhe asked loudly, "When did Lu Xiaosan come back?"
Lu Licheng turned around, "Uncle Huo, I’m all grown up now, and you still call me that?"
Huo Shanhe laughed, "I’ve been calling you that since you were small, forgot to change it."
Lu Licheng knew very well that Old Master Huo was doing this on purpose, so he turned to Jiang Jingya, "Hello, Aunt Huo, it’s been years, and you haven’t changed a bit. You’re still so graceful, beautiful, and elegant."
Jiang Jingya didn’t expect Lu Xiaosan to be so articulate now; he used to be quite a taciturn person, "You’ve changed quite a lot."
Upon hearing this, Huo Shanhe laughed, "Indeed, he’s finally got his tongue untied."
Lu Licheng gave a light cough, trying to make an impression but ended up being teased instead.
Once they all sat down, Auntie Zhang came over with tea.
Jiang Jingya invited Lu Licheng to sit down, "When did you get back?"
Lu Licheng replied with a smile, "Came back last night."
Huo Shanhe picked up his cup and downed his tea in a couple of gulps, making Jiang Jingya frown, thinking this man would never change his rough ways, "Aren’t you afraid of burning yourself?"
Huo Shanhe finished his tea and poured himself another cup, "I just got back, haven’t had time to drink water, besides, Licheng is not an outsider, what to be afraid of?"
