At this time, Xue Liangyu joined in, "So it was you who cured Gui Kailan’s illness?"
Yunyi smiled and nodded, "It was just luck."
Xue Liangyu waved his hand, "Her illness has been untreated for years, with both Western and Chinese medicine tried. I didn’t expect it was you who helped cure it, truly remarkable."
Each of them spoke like this, making Yunyi feel a bit shy.
Huo Jingrui, not wanting it to be obvious to them, quickly spoke up, "Alright, as long as you all know, let’s stop with the compliments, or my wife will get embarrassed."
There’s nothing a meal can’t bring closer.
By the time they left, Yunyi’s relationship with them was already very close, even Gao Rongrong, who was usually hard to converse with, hadn’t said anything discouraging.
As they left the private restaurant, everyone exchanged a few pleasantries before going their separate ways.
Yunyi supported Huo Jingrui, "Are you alright?"
Huo Jingrui saw everyone walk away, then changed from his previously drunk demeanor, "With the hangover pill you gave me, how could I be anything but fine?"
Yunyi reached out wanting to pinch him, but unfortunately, he wore too many clothes, so she was busy in vain, "So now, are we going home or somewhere else?"
Huo Jingrui used his wide sleeve as cover and held Yunyi’s hand, "Tonight we’re meeting at the state-run restaurant near the compound, let’s rest at home and go there just in time."
Yunyi nodded, "Let’s take a trip to the department store along the way to buy some candies."
Huo Jingrui made a face that whatever the wife says goes, causing Yunyi to burst into laughter.
Over time, she became a bit dazed, the memories of past lives seemed to drift further away, and the daily essentials of this life are what she truly desired.
Returning to the Huo Family house, they heard the sound of a child crying from inside before even entering the yard.
The two exchanged glances and quickly walked indoors.
They didn’t expect Zhang Xiaomei to be so principled, once she said something, she was determined to stick to it, not cutting corners.
Seeing them return, Zhang Xiaomei gestured with her eyebrows and eyes, "Fourth Brother Huo, Fourth Sister-in-law, you’re back."
Yunyi looked at the child whose crying had subsided slightly since they entered, "What’s going on?"
Zhang Xiaomei picked up the child, "He ran too fast and fell, and I should be taking them back now. This little one must be tired, I’ll take him back to sleep."
Yunyi quickly grabbed a handful of candies from her pocket and stuffed them into the child’s pants pocket, "Take these candies home to eat."
Zhang Xiaomei did not refuse and thanked them before taking the two children away.
Huo Jiayuan watched Zhang Xiaomei leave with the two nephews, then she sat down on the sofa, "My goodness, I never thought Grandpa Zhang’s grandsons could be such troublemakers, but at least they’ve left."
Yunyi cautiously asked, "How long were they here that made you so tired?"
Huo Jiayuan pouted in annoyance, "Just after you all left, they arrived, and said today the Zhang Family went out to handle things, so no one would be back for lunch. Thinking that it’d be inconvenient for her to cook lunch with the two kids, I decided to keep her here for lunch.
But I never thought the two little guys would never stop, if it weren’t for Brother Lu San, we’d be fumbling around, let alone having lunch."
She didn’t find anything strange about it, whereas Lu Licheng, who came out after tidying up the kitchen, looked at Huo Jingrui for a long time before leisurely speaking, "You really have good luck, you leave they arrive, you return for a rest, they leave as well, what a coincidence."
Luckily, Yunyi stayed calm, or else it would’ve been exposed.
