Huo Jingrui and Lu Licheng chatted and drank, and after a bottle of white liquor, both were just flushed.
Yunyi thought to herself, it seems Lu Licheng is not a simple character.
Seeing how he has always taken care of Jia Huan attentively, and Jiayuan’s transition from initial embarrassment to eventual acceptance, there’s no need to ask; it’s clear her future sister-in-law has already developed feelings.
However, Lu Licheng as a man is indeed quite good-looking, and it’s obvious he has long had Jiayuan in mind, with his heart and eyes full of her.
Huo Jingrui swallowed a dumpling and looked at Lu Licheng sitting opposite him: "When are you returning to the team?"
Lu Licheng turned to Jiayuan: "I’ll have to leave soon."
Huo Jingrui put down his chopsticks, opened another bottle of liquor: "Are you going back to Beijing first, or directly to the team?"
Lu Licheng took the bottle from Huo Jingrui, filled his glass: "Directly returning to the team."
Huo Jiayuan said a bit regretfully: "In a few days, my fourth brother and sister-in-law will host a banquet here, and you’ll just miss it."
Lu Licheng smiled at her and said: "No worries, I still have holidays during the New Year; I can attend their wedding banquet in Beijing then."
After eating, Lu Licheng helped tidy up and prepared to leave.
Huo Jingrui didn’t let his sister see him off, and instead went out himself.
The two walked quite a distance before Huo Jingrui spoke: "Have you made up your mind?"
Lu Licheng tossed his cigarette butt to the ground and extinguished it: "Hmm, you know, I’ve always liked Jiayuan, and I don’t want to miss another chance."
