Xie Yunhai, standing aside, felt mentally exhausted.
With the addition of two men, it wasn't easy for best friends to chat.
But the dinner table was still lively, thanks to the bickering between the two siblings.
The table was set with fried pork ribs, braised pork, braised fish, sautéed asparagus, beef slices with pickled peppers, fennel tofu soup—six dishes in total, four bowls of rice, and eight meat buns. These dishes were only available on-demand at Lan Hua State-owned and the Second State-owned Restaurant; other state-owned restaurants required a three-day advance reservation for even just braised fish due to shortages.
Jiang Ming'an kept making comments, yet his hand was constantly placing food into his sister Jiang Mingyue's bowl. Ming Yue was speechless—a girl, too, but luckily there was someone who loved him, or he'd truly be doomed to singlehood.
Gu Xiaoxiao felt no discomfort; in fact, she envied Yueyue for having such a caring brother.
"Did Yan Jinzhi leave?"
