Chapter 2634 - 438: A Bit of Fondness (9)
Momo was amused by Ye Zhan’s words.
She glared at him playfully, then looked up at Feng Yize and Qinghuan and said, "Although Yi Ze is too stingy to let me visit his new house, I’m not mad. Don’t leave tonight, come to our place for dinner."
"Sister-in-law, I knew you were the best."
"Don’t let Ziyang possess you."
Momo was inexplicably reminded of Ziyang praising Qingling in the group chat this morning.
It ended up causing a group attack.
Feng Yize’s lips twitched slightly, and he said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I’m telling the truth, unlike... let’s go for dinner, is big brother cooking?"
Momo smiled with pursed lips.
Feng Yize responded quickly.
What was he trying to say after "unlike"?
Momo looked up at Ye Zhan.
Ye Zhan met her gaze, understood her thoughts, and smiled indulgently, patting her head with his large, gentle hand.
He replied to Feng Yize, "You can cook if you want."
"Alright, I’ll cook."
Feng Yize glanced at Qinghuan and agreed readily.
"Then let’s go buy some groceries. Momo, Qinghuan, you head home first."
Ye Zhan noticed Feng Yize wanted to show off, so naturally, he would support him.
Momo laughingly reminded, "Buy a bit more, I’ll call Sister Tongtong shortly to have them join us, and, oh, do you want to call Junming as well, Yi Ze, could you bring Aunt Yan over later?"
Yan Zhidong was alone in G City, Momo was worried about her being alone.
"Third Brother is going back to the Imperial City tomorrow, didn’t you know?" Feng Yize seemed surprised that Momo hadn’t noticed Chu Junming was leaving.
Indeed, Momo raised an eyebrow, "Junming is leaving tomorrow?"
"Yes."
Feng Yize nodded, choosing not to mention he was going back for a matchmaking meet.
Ye Zhan didn’t know either, hearing Feng Yize say this, he gently said to Momo, "Momo, you guys go back first, I’ll call Junming and check with him later."
Momo took Qinghuan home, while Ye Zhan and Feng Yize went grocery shopping.
Qinghuan made a quick call home, letting them know she wouldn’t be back for dinner tonight.
Momo then called Tongtong.
Tongtong and Tang Jinchen were out somewhere, upon hearing there was food, they agreed to come back soon.
"Sister Momo, are you really not going on a honeymoon?"
Entering the living room, Qinghuan, holding Momo’s hand, walked towards the sofa.
Momo smiled lightly, "Yes, really not going, it’s nice to stay home."
"Sister Tongtong was supposed to go, but because she’s pregnant, she’s not going either," Qinghuan giggled, "Actually, staying home is quite nice too... Sister Momo, is this?"
Momo looked down at the place Qinghuan pointed.
Well... as expected...
She playfully glared at Qinghuan, pulling her collar up a bit, "No laughing."
"Alright, I won’t laugh."
Qinghuan obediently nodded, indeed refraining from laughter.
Momo hummed twice, then began to grill Qinghuan, "You and Yi Ze just went to see the villa earlier, did he confess to you?"
Qinghuan was caught off guard by the question.
Her eyes flickered as she sat down in front of the sofa, taking the remote to turn on the TV, "No, he just took me to look at his villa, said they’re starting renovations soon."
Momo stood in front of the sofa, looking down at Qinghuan, "He’s already starting to renovate the new house, Qinghuan, just wait for Feng Yize to confess to you."
"Sister Momo, it’s not like you said."
Qinghuan looked up in shock, how could she say something so outrageous?
What new house.
"Everyone knows Feng Yize likes you, Qinghuan, I see you seem happy with him, there’s no one here now, quietly tell me, do you have feelings for him too?"
Momo bent down, gossiping as she looked at Qinghuan.
The remote in her hand was being pressed aimlessly.
Clearly, Momo’s words had thrown her heart out of rhythm.
Momo watched her with a twinkle in her eye.
Qinghuan was made uncomfortable by the scrutiny, blushing.
The warmth of Feng Yize’s grip on her wrist seemed to linger, she pushed Momo away with a laugh, "I don’t know, I don’t dislike him anyway."
Momo leaned closer again, eyeing Qinghuan’s rosy cheeks, "Qinghuan, are you embarrassed?"
"Maybe I kind of like Feng Yize."
After a long while, Qinghuan replied uneasily.
Momo laughed happily, "If Feng Yize hears this, I bet he won’t sleep at all tonight."
"Momo, don’t tell him."
Qinghuan hastily stopped her, still unsure herself.
"Alright, I’ll keep your secret."
Momo agreed cheerfully, hearing Qinghuan admit she sort of likes Feng Yize was joy enough.
She’d give her some time.
Love affairs can’t be meddled in by others, Momo only hopes Qinghuan will be happy and fulfilled.
She and Feng Yize coming together doesn’t need intention, letting it develop naturally is good.
"Sister Momo, call Sister Qingling too, see if she wants to come?"
Qinghuan changed the channel to a drama and turned to Momo.
Momo sat down next to her, this drama she was following recently, already up to the latest update, Qinghuan had only heard about it from them a few days ago.
She hadn’t seen it yet.
So she started watching from the first episode.
Momo dialed Qingling’s number next to her.
After several rings, Qingling’s voice came through.
She had the speaker on, so Qinghuan also heard Qingling’s voice, "Sister Momo, what’s up?"
"Come over for dinner, Qinghuan and Sister Tongtong are here, head over after work."
"Sister Qingling, it’s quite lively tonight." Qinghuan chimed in, proving she was indeed present.
Hearing Qinghuan’s voice, Qingling wailed over the phone.
"I can’t, I have to work overtime tonight."
"Working overtime, huh, then do it well, we’ll invite you some other day." Momo heard Qingling mention working overtime, so she didn’t dare tempt her anymore.
If she skips overtime for the sake of fun, Ziyi would come looking for her.
"You’re not including me?"
Qingling asked pitifully.
Momo was amused by her words, "Include you, come over after your overtime ends, we’ll wait for you before ending the night."
Anyway, she wasn’t working, she wasn’t worried.
A bit of late-night fun was no harm.
Seeming to think it over for a dozen seconds, Qingling responded, "Alright."
After a few more words, she hung up.
Qingling placed her phone back on the desk, and the office door was knocked.
Opening the door, Chu Junming entered.
Meeting Bai Qingling’s gaze, his warm voice sounded, "My big brother called to say Yi Ze and the others are having dinner at his place tonight."
"Ah, I just got a call from Sister Momo too."
Qingling’s eyes sparkled, did Chu Junming not need to work overtime either?
Chu Junming seemed to know what she was thinking, the corner of his mouth curved, "If you want to go, let’s head over after your overtime."
Qingling put the keys she had grabbed back into the drawer.
Standing up, she walked out from behind the desk, "We’ll see then, if it’s too late, we won’t go. What time’s your flight back to the Imperial City tomorrow?"
