In the evening, Lu Yichen arrived at the Zhong family house and picked up Zhong Niangyao before heading to the agreed-upon restaurant.
Wu Shi and his girlfriend Xiao Min had already been waiting in the private room for a while, and they were there especially to thank Zhong Niangyao. After learning of Zhong Niangyao's family background, the couple knew there wasn't much they could do to express their gratitude, so they had decided to simply invite Zhong Niangyao out to dinner.
Upon entering the private room, Zhong Niangyao saw Wu Shi and his girlfriend.
Compared to his previously dispirited appearance, Wu Shi couldn't exactly be described as radiant at this moment, but he did look much better. When he glanced at the girl by his side, he did so with tenderness and love. It was clear that he genuinely liked her.
