Lin Liye’s eyes shone. “Your is brother dating someone!”
Lin Liye was excited. “Heh heh heh, only a girlfriend can be so thoughtful as to even care about supper. Moreover, if he didn’t have a girlfriend caring for him, would he get off from work this early?”
Han Zhuofeng felt obligated to remind Lin Liye to not be too optimistic. “If he really had a girlfriend, would he be back home this early?”
Lin Liye: “…”
This rascal. But he has a point.
“Moreover, maybe it’s Lu Man who cooked? Big Brother and Second Brother attended the gala at the National Film Academy today, and it’s normal for Big Brother to go to Second Brother’s home for supper when they left together,” Han Zhuofeng stated.
Lin Liye thought that that was possible too.
Her bubbling enthusiasm was doused by Han Zhuofeng’s words, so Lin Liye glared at him. “Prattle on!”
Why did he have to ruin her blissful imaginings?
Han Zhuofeng: “…”
To cement his status as the favorite youngest son in the family, Han Zhuofeng decided to sell out the older Young Master Han at once.
“Mom, you’re right,” Han Zhuofeng cut in. “I think it’s possible that my brother has a girlfriend. Why don’t you call and verify it with Second Brother and Sister-in-law? Ask them whether Big Brother followed them home for supper?”
Lin Liye thought he made sense and looked at him approvingly. “You’re so considerate.”
Now she was not at all scornful like she was just a moment ago.
Han Zhuofeng smiled sweetly, looking on as Lin Liye dialed for Han Zhuoli.
“Auntie.” Han Zhuoli and Lu Man had long since reached home.
Lu Man was searching for details about the exchange students.
Not everyone’s information could be found, but those regarding Shana and Howard were plentiful.
Lu Man even watched the movies they starred in.
It’s a pity that Shana had acted mainly in movies suited to teen idols, for the plots didn’t require great acting skills. She only had to act sweetly, and there wasn’t much to be gleaned from there.
But Lu Man still put in an effort to find the good parts of Shana’s acting.
Howard’s movies were easier to study.
Howard had never gotten a main role before, but he had acted in quite a few artistic films and had been a supporting actor in some historical films.
One of them even won the Oscars award for Best Film. Oscar-winning films were not like typical blockbusters. They usually had deeper meanings and might be too uninteresting for some viewers.
But though not everyone loved the film, the actors were good.
Howard had a minor supporting role in it with only a few shots, but he had seized the chance to present himself to better advantage precisely because he had fewer scenes.
Hence, Howard’s acting skills were actually better than Shana’s acting as a protagonist.
Lu Man paused the video after hearing Lin Liye call.
Lu Man couldn’t hear what Lin Liye was saying over the phone. Meanwhile, Han Zhuoli heard Lin Liye ask, “Zhuoli dear, did Zhuoling follow you both home after the gala?”
Upon hearing this, Han Zhuoli laughed and switched on his phone’s loudspeaker while asking Lu Man to come over. He told Lin Liye, “Man Man’s beside me, Auntie, let me switch on the speakers so we both can hear you.”
Even though what Lin Liye spoke of wasn’t that big of a deal, Han Zhuoli thought it’s better to inform her.
