It came from Wei Ying. Huo Mian was surprised since she wasn’t very close to Wei Ying.
“Is it a special occasion?”
“Sister Mian, Mingxi and I got remarried.”
“Congratulations.”
Huo Mian had heard Jiang Xiaowei mention it but didn’t ask for the details.
“We’d like to invite you guys to dinner.”
“Oh, that’s a good thing. Just send me the restaurant address and time.”
“We sincerely invite you and President Qin to come,” Wei Ying added.
“Okay, we’ll be there.”
In the evening of the next day, at the invitation of Wei Ying and Shen Mingxi, the friends came to a private restaurant that the Shen Family owned.
The location was in the suburbs, but the renovation was classy.
Shen Mingxi chose this place to avoid reporters since the media had been following their scandal for a long time.
In the compartment, the guests included Qin Chu, Huo Mian, Su Yu, An, Tang Chuan, and Qin Ning.
Gao Ran wasn’t familiar with Shen Mingxi, so he and Lingling didn’t come.
But Wei Liao and his wife were late…
“Shall I call Mr. Wei?” Tang Chuan said.
“No. My brother might… not come.” Wei Ying sounded uncertain. After all, Wei Liao had objected the most adamantly against her remarrying Shen Mingxi.
Then the door opened, and Jiang Xiaowei entered, but she was alone.
“Sister-in-law, where’s my brother?” Wei Ying hurried over to take Jiang Xiaowei’s bag.
“Oh… He had to return to the company to deal with something and told us not to wait for him.”
Jiang Xiaowei was subtle, but everyone knew that it was only an excuse. Wei Liao just didn’t want to come.
Shen Mingxi glanced at Jiang Xiaowei a bit embarrassedly.
“Sister Wei, please sit down.”
“Don’t call me that. Since you two are back together, you must call me sister-in-law as Ying does.” Dr. Jiang was always open-minded.
During the dinner, the atmosphere was quite lively. Shen Mingxi hadn’t eaten with the others for a long while, but Huo Mian and Qin Chu showed their support by coming earlier than the appointed time.
They drank a lot and began to chat lively. Even Su Yu, a man of no nonsense, couldn’t stop babbling.
With one arm around Shen Mingxi’s neck, he said drunkenly, “Brother, I tell you… It’s truly difficult for you to meet someone you like and likes you back. So, you must cherish it. You guys have known each other most of your lives, playing with each other since you were children. You two are destined to be together. Cherish the second chance you have.”
“I will, Mr. Su.” Shen Mingxi listened to him earnestly.
“Old Shen, don’t listen to Mr. Su. He’s drunk and tomorrow he won’t even remember what he says now.” Tang Chuan’s words made everyone laugh.
“Bullshit. I’m very somber,” Su Yu retorted.
“Mr. Su, we’re all settled down. You’re the only single guy among us… You’re not qualified to lecture us on love.”
Only Tang Chuan dared to mock Su Yu to his face.
“I’ll settle down soon…”
“It sounds like you have a girlfriend?” Tang Chuan teased him.
However, An felt his boss wasn’t himself tonight; he looked cheerful but wasn’t truly happy.
