Gui Hua found herself fond of Lin Hun’s anxious demeanor. She quickly nodded, gently pulling him back with her. Her voice was filled with the tenderness that was so often present in their daily interactions. “Of course, I should be the one you toast with. I am your wife, after all. Who else would you toast with? I was merely trying to give Jin Long a hint. There’s no need for you to worry…”

Jin Long stood still, mulling over Gui Hua’s words. To familiarize himself with Gong Xin, he would need to engage in more conversations with her, wouldn’t he?

Once he understood this, he didn’t hesitate. He promptly returned to Gu Zi’s table. By this time, everyone at Gu Zi’s table had nearly finished their meal. Jin Long shamelessly took the seat that Su Bing had just vacated, as it was right next to Gong Xin.

Upon seeing him return, Gong Xin couldn’t hide the joy in her eyes. However, fearing that her feelings would be noticed, she kept her head down, pretending not to see him. She continued to eat her braised meat, a fresh serving that Gu Zi had just fetched for her.

As she ate, she heard Jin Long awkwardly explaining to Gu Zi, “I’ve had too much to drink and I’m feeling a bit tipsy. I thought I’d eat something to sober up. Sister-in-law, would it be alright if I sit here?”

Gu Zi elegantly swallowed her last bite of food. She saw through his intentions but chose not to expose him. She nodded and replied, “Of course, you’re welcome to sit here. If you don’t mind that we’ve already eaten from these dishes, then I certainly don’t mind. Unfortunately, I’ve finished eating and can’t accompany you. But luckily, Gong Xin is still eating. You two take your time. I’ll go and order some fresh dishes for you.”

Gu Zi had no intention of playing the third wheel and obstructing the two. In her eyes, Jin Long was indeed a good man. He came from a good background and was hardworking and resilient. She believed that Gong Xin also had feelings for him. Encouraging them to spend more time together was a good thing. As for whether they would end up together, that was up to them.

On the other side, Aunt Yang and Yang Zhen had finished their meal and were sitting under a large tree, having a heart-to-heart conversation. The mother and daughter, who hadn’t seen each other in years, had a lot to talk about. Not knowing where to start, Yang Zhen began to share her experiences from the past few years with her mother, only mentioning the good parts.
