Bai Zhi got home around noon, and shortly after she arrived she went out again to order a cake for Father Bai.
By the time she came back, her eldest brother's family was already there.
No one knew yet that she and Duan Xingzhi had broken up, so even though her Sister-in-law had a lot of prejudice against Bai Zhi, she was still quite warm toward her.
Bai Zhi, on the other hand, was rather subdued, because she knew exactly what everyone's attitude would be once she told them about it.
At first everyone was getting along, chatting and laughing. When the meal was almost over, Sister-in-law finally seized the chance to ask, "Xiao Zhi, how are things going with Xingzhi lately? Didn't you say you've already met his parents? When are you planning to get married?"
Bai Zhi finished her last bite of rice, set down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and said, "He and I… broke up."
"Broke up?"
Clearly, the news was too shocking for everyone.
