Upon hearing Ming Zixi's words, Li An immediately became wary and sized him up from head to toe. "What important guest are you talking about Do we know them"
"Of course! Otherwise, why would I bring someone here" Ming Zixi chuckled at Li An’s stupidity. "How did marriage turn you into a dunce Are you an idiot now"
Li An's expression remained serious. He had just reconciled with Yan Luoxi and didn't want any complications. Especially not some woman who would cause trouble.
"Could it be a girl that I could introduce to you With a great guy like you around, no girl would even look at me."
Ming Zixi laughed merrily.
Li An snapped impatiently. "Stop talking nonsense and tell me who's coming!"
Ming Zixi looked at the charcoal fire set up not far away, then at Yan Luoxi beside him, who was full of joy over the lively scene before her. He said softly, "Doudou is coming back tonight. I’ve sent someone to pick him up from the airport. He’ll be here soon."
As soon as Li An heard that Shao Junhe was coming, he froze.
The other side had already started barbecuing with the help of the staff, and the air was filled with the mouth-watering scents of lamb skewers, chicken wings, and seafood. These aromas mixed together, making everyone's appetite spike.
"Li An, Doudou is our friend. This has always been his home; he’ll always be coming back here. We can’t avoid him, nor can Luoxi…" Ming Zixi thought Li An didn't want Shao Junhe to come and was trying to persuade him.
"What are you thinking Would I be someone who values lust over friendship Doudi has always been my good brother. Moreover, when Luoxi was in trouble, he stayed by her side the whole time. In a way, he's also my benefactor." Li An sighed softly. "He’s been gone for so long; I miss him and worry about him. I really hope to see him soon, just like before..."
“It's good that you think this way. We will meet eventually. I want to gather everyone together and have them meet in an organized manner instead of meeting separately. That’s better.” Ming Zixi always had his own ideas when it came to handling matters.
Li An nodded slightly; he still felt uneasy, not for himself but because of Yan Luoxi.
Since the time Yan Luoxi separated from Shao Junhe, she hadn’t seen him again. And due to being his good friend, Li An had never discussed Shao Junhe with her. He wondered what kind of feelings Luoxi harbored towards Shao Junhe now.
The meat skewers were done and crackled on the charcoal grill. Ming Zixi's girlfriend beckoned him over to eat; Li An couldn’t leave Yan Luoxi alone, so they both walked over.
Yan Luoxi was very excited today. Normally, Li An wouldn't let her eat these kinds of grilled seafood items, but now she could finally indulge herself.
She took advantage of the fact that the barbecue wasn’t done yet and quickly ate some skewers. The chef Ming Zixi brought with him had excellent skills; his skewers tasted authentic, with the dipping sauce perfectly balanced. Each bite left a lingering fragrance on her palate, making Yan Luoxi sigh in delight at how fresh it was.
"You should eat less of these things; they're not good for the baby." Li An tried to stop Yan Luoxi, feeling anxious and unsettled.
“Mm-hmm. I know. I won’t eat anymore.” Yan Luoxi obediently put down her skewers, eyeing the barbecue grill nearby. She nudged Li An. "Can you get me two meat skewers More rapid updates can be found at."
Li An had no choice but to stand up and fetch the skewers for her.
Yan Luoxi looked at Li An, who had handed her something. Her pretty face sank with displeasure, saying, "I told you to bring two skewers. Did you really bring two"
Seeing that Yan Luoxi was unhappy, Li An hurriedly explained, "This is all for your own good. Look at how much weight you've gained recently. Just now, Shao Meizhu secretly mocked you."
Yan Luoxi looked down and saw her plump arms. She unwillingly took the meat skewers from Li An's hand and began to savor them while glancing at the slim Shao Meizhu and Wu Tiantian nearby.
Seeing Yan Luoxi look pitiful, Li An sighed and got up again to fetch another skewer. He then gently pushed her loose strands of hair behind her ear, saying, "Luoxi, someone else is coming."
"Mm," Yan Luoxi stared at the meat skewers in Li An's hand and responded indifferently.
"Do you know who it is" Li An asked with a hint of melancholy.
"No." Yan Luoxi shook her head honestly, not wanting to make any guesses.
Seeing that his topic didn't hold as much interest for Yan Luoxi as the meat skewers did, Li An gave up on asking and directly told her, "It's Shao Junhe. He's coming back soon."
"Ah." Yan Luoxi finally stopped chewing and looked intently at Li An.
Seeing how strong her reaction was, Li An suddenly felt hesitant. "Luoxi, if you don't want to see him, I can tell him not to come or we could leave right now."
Yan Luoxi finally reacted and slowly lowered her head, picking up the skewer of lamb again but at a noticeably slower pace. After a while, she looked up at Li An with a smile. "I don’t want to leave. I really miss Brother Douzi."
Upon hearing this, Li An felt an internal storm brewing inside him.
Seeing that he was acting like a stubborn child again, Yan Luoxi pinched his arm and said, "You’re being difficult again, aren’t you Didn’t you hear me call him Brother Douzi In my heart, there’s no difference between him and my own brother."
Li An still had an unhealthy pallor on his face but grunted in acknowledgment.
"Li An, Shao Junhe did have a favor to repay. Actually, I’ve been quite concerned about him lately. It was only because of your petty jealousy that I didn’t dare ask you about where he went," Yan Luoxi rolled her eyes helplessly. "I truly don’t have any other thoughts towards him. I just miss and worry for him. And I’m grateful."
"I know." Li An exhaled lightly. "Actually, I know that you don’t mean anything by it. It’s just that when I see you being nice to men other than me, I feel uncomfortable."
"Then if the baby in my belly turns out to be a boy, would you not allow me to be nice to him either" Yan Luoxi teased Li An with a smile.
Li An nodded seriously. "My father was like that when he was young. He didn’t really like my mother being close to me and my brother. He said boys should stay away from their mothers, or they wouldn’t have any backbone."
Yan Luoxi laughed. She knew how much Li Haonan cared about Gu Xiaobei. Even eating his son’s jealousy now. It seemed that Li An was going to inherit his father’s fine tradition.
Hearing the news of Shao Junhe returning, Yan Luoxi lost her appetite completely. Her heart fluttered up and down with mixed emotions. She gently tugged on Li An beside her and whispered softly, "When Brother Douzi comes back, you have to be nice to him. Don’t say anything nasty." "Luoxi, rest here while I go take a look around now to see if there are any suitable villas available for rent.""You don’t need to be so busy," said Yan Luoxi worriedly as she saw Shao Junhe rushing...
