You have such a low EQ. Didn’t you feel that the Feng family doesn’t like me at all? thought Luosang. However, she decided not to mention these things, as Nian Xi was getting married soon, and she didn’t want anyone to be unhappy.

“No. He and Leng Shuangwei are close friends, after all. It’s reasonable for him to invite her. Why would I be angry about that? I just felt a little uncomfortable in his place. Besides, I don’t really have any shared topics with you guys.”

Nian Junting pressed his thin lips together. “But, Nian Xi is going to marry Ji Chuan and become a part of his family. We still need to get together at festivals and New Year’s.”

“I understand that. If I’m married to you, I’ll certainly agree to hang out with them, but we aren’t married yet...” said Luosang.

Nian Junting interrupted her and said, “But you’ve accepted my proposal already, unless you want to go back on your word.”

“I don’t, but we haven’t gotten married, after all. Your father doesn’t want to accept me, and Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng are good friends with your father...”

Nian Junitng understood her meaning. “Are you worried that Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng might not like you? You’re right, though. I won’t ask you to come next time. You’re my woman, so you have to be comfortable when we hang out. You don’t need to come again if you don’t want to.”

Hearing that, Luosang finally felt slightly comfortable. Thankfully, he wasn’t unreasonable about those things.

...

At ten o’clock that night, Mr. Feng helped the awfully drunk Xiao Si into the front seat. After that, Feng Ji Chuan said to Leng Shuangwei, “Don’t drive too fast. Text me when you’re home.”

“Alright, I will... certainly... text you...” Xiao Si burped and waved his hand.

“I wasn’t talking to you.” Ji Chuan smiled.

“This kid gets drunk a lot more easily than before. That’s because he hasn’t been drinking in years.” Mr. Feng laughed and said, “Come and visit us again.”

“Uncle Feng, see you.” Leng Shuangwei started the car and drove Xiao Si away from the Feng family.

Watching the car driving away, Mr. Feng patted his son on the back and said, “I’ll go back in. You drive Nian Xi home.”

The yard suddenly fell into silence. Feng Ji Chuan reached out a hand toward Nian Xi and said, “Give me the car key, I’ll drive you home.”

“No need. You haven’t recovered completely yet. You’d better not drive for now,” said Nian Xi. She lowered her eyelids in the darkness, opened her mouth slightly, and continued, “Ji Chuan, why didn’t you tell us that you invited Shuangwei tonight?”

“If I had told you about it, would you have agreed to let her come?” Ji Chuan threw the question back at her. “Shuangwei took the military academy examination with us that year. She rarely comes home. She doesn’t have many friends here anymore. In fact, we’re her only friends now. I know you’ve been having issues with her because of what happened before, but she’s also a victim. Her parents got divorced. For some certain things, one person alone can’t make it happen. This may sound bad, but I think your father and her mother are both responsible for what happened. Xi, I hope that we can all still be friends, like we used to be.”

Nian Xi raised her head and said, “I know that she did nothing wrong. My brother and I aren’t unreasonable people, so I’ve chatted and laughed with her just now, but tonight was different. I told you that Sangsang would be here, too. If she hadn’t come, everything would have been fine. I’m happy to see Shuangwei again. She’s my friend, too. But, didn’t you see the awkward expression on Sangsang’s face?”

“She felt awkward, so did Shuangwei.” Ji Chuan frowned. “Xi, in fact, I wanted to ask you this before. How long have you known Xu Luosang? Do you know her really well? Why do you always try to help her? Don’t forget that Shuangwei grew up with us.”
