Chapter 582 Luo Shengtian Invites Me to Dinner
After completing her mission of getting free meals, Jiang Duoduo flew back to T country and spent more than half a month working before returning to J city.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's December again, the coldest month of the year.
The twelfth lunar month is both the coldest and the warmest time of the year.
Because once the twelfth lunar month arrives, it means the end of the year is approaching.
Chinese New Year is a holiday, a warm time for family members to get together.
Jiang Duoduo felt that since graduating from university, time had been flying by and each year seemed to pass by more and more quickly.
In that year, Chen Shuyue owned three breakfast shops in J City and also got her driver's license and started driving a car. This year was a breakthrough for her.
Now that the store has hired staff, Chen Shuyue no longer needs to stay in the store all day long.
Sometimes she would work half a day at her own shop, and then drive to Lao Si's place to help her take care of Hu Bao.
Sometimes I would drive to Daxi Village and stay for a few days, basking in the sun, planting flowers, and chatting with Aunt Wu across the street. Life was easy and comfortable!
This year was also a year of major breakthroughs for Jiang Duoduo.
Thanks to the system, in addition to the overseas hotels opened by the treasure chests, Jiang Duoduo's own brand, Huayue Chain Hotel, has also opened branches in T country, H country and M country.
After a busy year, Jiang Duoduo doesn't plan to travel around this December. She wants to give herself a proper vacation, stay home, eat, drink, and watch TV shows.
Chen Shumin is taking her child back to her parents' home for the Chinese New Year this year, and Chen Shuyue, as the second sister, wants to prepare the best for her younger sister's family.
It's only the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and she's already planning to go back to Daxi Village to tidy up her house, do some cleaning, and dry some more soy sauce chicken wings and chicken legs.
This summer vacation, Jiang Duoduo had promised her aunt's children that she would pick them up and take them to J City for a visit.
Unfortunately, Jiang Duoduo was too busy at that time, as she needed to travel all over the world for work.
Wu Xiaozhu happened to have found herself a part-time job during the summer vacation, while her younger cousins were going to summer classes.
Chen Shumin said that she would wait until the Chinese New Year, and that she would definitely take some of the children back to her parents' home for the New Year this year.
Therefore, the trip to J City during the summer vacation was changed to the Chinese New Year.
Jiang Duoduo immediately perked up when she heard that her aunt and cousin were coming. Since she was going to stay at home anyway, it didn't matter which house she stayed at!
So, Jiang Duoduo followed Chen Shuyue back to Daxi Village.
Little did she know that just one day after arriving in Daxi Village, before she could even settle into a comfortable position, a phone call from Luo Kai disrupted Jiang Duoduo's plans to lie down.
Luo Kai's father, Luo Shengtian, actually invited her to dinner at the Luo family home!
Upon hearing the news, Jiang Duoduo's first reaction was that she didn't want to go.
To be honest, Jiang Duoduo's impression of her father, Luo Kai, was much worse than that of her mother, Wen Jiayi.
She felt that a father who neglected his own children from childhood and only doted on other people's children was just like Jiang Shubao!
"Why...why does your father suddenly want to invite me to dinner?"
Jiang Duoduo wondered if Luo Shengtian had any other intentions in inviting her to dinner, such as choosing someone as his successor.
If there were an opportunity, Jiang Duoduo felt that as Luo Kai's girlfriend, she would definitely have to go to the dinner.
Anyway, I've already experienced all sorts of awkward situations when I was doing free meals, so having a meal with Luo Shengtian won't make a difference.
"He said he wants to meet you, his future daughter-in-law!"
Luo Kai said this with a smile. Actually, Luo Shengtian's original words were, "I heard you've been dating this girlfriend for quite a while. Shouldn't you bring her home to meet your parents? How about tomorrow?"
Actually, Luo Kai didn't want to eat this meal either.
He hadn't sat down at the same table to eat with that so-called family of three for many years.
Now, suddenly sitting together and pretending to eat amicably is somewhat awkward.
He himself didn't like such a scene, and naturally didn't want Jiang Duoduo to go along and fawn over others.
Unfortunately, his father, who had always lived in S City, actually made a special trip back to J City just to have a meal with him and Jiang Duoduo.
This made Luo Kai a little reluctant to refuse him directly, so he said he would ask Jiang Duoduo if she was free first.
The New Year is just around the corner, and everyone is busy. If Jiang Duoduo is not available, we can talk about it next time.
"That's definitely not what your father said, is it? Luo Kai, stop teasing me! Also, I'd like to ask, will Luo Zifeng and his mother be here for this meal?"
Jiang Duoduo seemed to suddenly remember something and asked Luo Kai another question.
"He should be there! I heard that Luo Zifeng will bring his girlfriend back for dinner. But Duoduo, don't worry, if you don't want to go, we won't go."
Luo Kai knew Jiang Duoduo's personality; if she were interested in this meal, she would have agreed long ago and wouldn't have asked so many questions.
If she didn't want to go, Luo Kai could go and tell his father himself.
Anyway, if his unloved son doesn't eat this meal, doesn't he still have another filial son he likes?
"Sure! It's rare for your father to invite me to dinner, so of course I'll go! When?"
When Jiang Duoduo heard that Luo Zifeng was also bringing his girlfriend, she felt that Luo Shengtian's invitation to dinner was not a simple matter.
In any matter that involves Luo Kai's interests, Jiang Duoduo doesn't want Luo Zifeng to benefit from it.
"Huh? Duoduo, are you serious? Are you sure you want to go eat this meal?"
Jiang Duoduo's sudden suggestion to go surprised Luo Kai.
"Really?! Tell me which day? I just arrived in Daxi Village, it can't be tonight, can it?"
Jiang Duoduo asked somewhat anxiously.
"No way! I'll pick you up from Daxi Village tomorrow night!"
Luo Kai said with a smile.
For Jiang Duoduo, tomorrow and today are pretty much the same; she'll just have to go back to J City after arriving in Daxi Village.
But that’s it!
Luo Kai said he would pick her up in Daxi Village tomorrow, so she wouldn't have to drive all the way back to J City herself.
Not having to drive herself made Jiang Duoduo feel much better.
But since this is my first time going to my boyfriend's house for dinner, should I bring a gift?
Thinking of this, Jiang Duoduo, who had just put down her phone, called Luo Kai again.
Luo Kai said he would prepare the gifts, and Jiang Duoduo only needed to enjoy her meal.
Beautiful?
How much more beautiful do I need to look? Do I need to dress up in the most elaborate way?
Jiang Duoduo thought to herself, "Don't let Luo Kai's usual aloofness towards his father fool you; he actually cares a lot about Luo Shengtian, his father."
……
"Zifeng, you and Feilin should come back early tomorrow. Luo Kai promised to bring his girlfriend home for dinner, and your dad is so happy! He keeps telling me that the iceberg in his family has finally melted."
"Luo Kai just dated a country girl, so why is he so happy? If you bring Fei Lin home tonight, your dad will be grinning from ear to ear!"
While directing the nanny to clean their home in J City, Ye Qingqing called Luo Zifeng.
