Li Jianqing saw that his sister had returned and, without any delay, he finished his noodles, wiped his mouth, and sat down in the living room. Iro, feeling somewhat embarrassed, lingered at the table, slowly eating.
Li Xianglu saw this but didn't rush her, sighing and pointing to the items she had brought: "These are some gifts. Go with Iro later, and it's better to go early and clear things up."
Hearing this, Iro put down her bowl and sat down in the living room with a worried expression: "Xiao Xiang, you've met my mom too. She's a snob, calculating everything in terms of benefits. Could you and Qin Xi go with me later?"
Li Xianglu sighed. Actually, she was planning to go with them, considering it concerned her third brother, and their presence might help sway things, especially with Iro's mother's personality. Li Xianglu had offended her last time, but this time she was willing to humble herself if needed.
Mr. Li spoke up: "How about I go as well?"
