The array of delicious foods made the already hungry group of friends even hungrier.
Everyone was pointing at the duo, joking that they had no martial ethics while planning a weekend gathering.
The happiness of middle-aged n is quite simple. In their busy lives, sitting with a group of childhood friends, drinking, and chatting is incredibly relaxing.
"Is it Saturday or the weekend specifically?"
Seeing soone ask this in the group chat, Shen Guofu replied:
"Let’s go with Saturday. I have plans for the weekend. My son-in-law is taking Dundun to the car exhibition, and I’ll tag along for fun, helping Lin Xu pick a car while I’m at it."
As soon as he said this, the chat beca even more lively.
"Tut-tut, what a model father-in-law!"
"Only old Shen is shaless enough to claim Lin Xu ahead of ti. Otherwise, who knows who he’d call father-in-law?"
"Oh, co on! You don’t even have a daughter, just trying to join the fun."
"And you? Why were you secretly trying to bring your daughter back from abroad during that ti?"
"I... I just miss my daughter a lot. Now, when I go to Lin Ji to eat, I am happy enough when Lin Xu calls uncle. Several clients can’t believe I am so close to Lin Xu."
"..."
Lin Xu finished a piece of marinated fish and picked up a piece of Xianghe at pie. This thin-crusted, thick-ated pie was satisfying enough to skip the dishes, perfect to eat along with millet porridge.
While he was eating, Chen Yan said:
"By the way, we’re signing the contract tomorrow. Let’s also get a pet certificate for Dundun to confirm its ownership. Otherwise, if soone else carries a British Shorthair and claims it’s Dundun, that’ll be a hassle."
"Sure," Lin Xu agreed, planning to handle this after visiting the Yanjing Hotel tomorrow.
Having a pet certificate is like having a household registration.
Shen Guofu finished his fourth at pie and was about to eat his fifth when he noticed Han Shuzhen’s disapproving look. He chuckled awkwardly:
"Just checking if it’s cold; Yuanyuan hasn’t eaten yet, and it won’t do if it is."
To cover his embarrassnt, he asked Lin Xu:
"Lin Xu, what car do you think is the most comfortable and thrilling to drive?"
Why the sudden talk about cars?
Lin Xu wasn’t thinking about changing cars, as he’d been driving his X5 for less than three months.
Seeing his father-in-law ask, he thought for a mont and said:
"Personally, I think the G-Wagen. I like its boxy and stylish look. If it’s modified a bit, it’d be even more comfortable to drive."
The G-Wagen?
The Shen father and daughter both lit up at the ntion.
If so, let’s really look for one at the car show.
The G-Wagen Shen Guofu gifted Chen iliang was a standard G63 model, nearly three million.
But for this purchase, a standard edition wouldn’t be as appealing. They should look for a factory-modified version, preferably carbon fiber with a sports kit—sothing that matches the unique temperant of his son-in-law.
anwhile, Shen Baobao was calculating her small savings.
After pondering for a long ti, she realized she could only afford a car in the over four-million range. Anything pricier and her spending money would run out; she might even need her dad’s support.
She couldn’t even afford to give her fiancé a decent gift.
Sigh... life is just too tough!
After dinner, when Han Shuzhen went downstairs to accompany Dundun, Shen Guofu snuck a couple more at pies.
As he put it, it was just "filling the gaps."
Getting to eat them once, he had to indulge enough.
Lin Xu put the remaining at pies in the oven, using low heat to save them for Chen Yuanyuan.
When she returns, even if the taste isn’t as optimal, they’ll still be warm, and won’t feel too greasy.
After dinner, Lin Xu started working in the kitchen while Shen Baobao took Dundun to the villa to shoot another VLOG and helped her tipsy dad by driving the car back.
At the villa, Shen Baobao and Dundun went straight to the gym on the lower level to start filming.
A little kitty’s gym journey.
Shen Guofu went upstairs to change into gym clothes for a ga of pool.
He had eaten quite a bit and needed so activity to avoid indigestion.
Plus, after eating so much at, if he didn’t exercise, he’d snore at night, and the outco of snoring was being kicked awake without any reason.
As he pushed open the bedroom door, ready to find his gym wear, Han Shuzhen followed him in.
Seeing his wife’s serious expression, old Shen knew she intended to ask about those two pounds of at pies.
Director Han only ant well; if one eats a low-fat al at ho but goes out secretly for rich foods, there’s no point in dieting—it’s a recipe for weight gain.
So she wanted to get to the bottom of it.
To prevent her from nagging endlessly, Shen Guofu decided to seize the initiative.
Taking advantage of his slight inebriation, after Han Shuzhen entered, he suddenly embraced his still-beautiful middle-aged gastroenterology director wife.
"Old Shen, what are you doing... Yueyue is still downstairs, you’re acting like a brute!"
Being swept up, Han’s face was a mix of embarrassnt and anger, and the words she’d intended to say were left unsaid.
Shen Guofu gave her a devilish grin:
"Call Guofu Brother!"
Surprised by the embrace, Han Shuzhen instinctively wrapped her arms around Shen Guofu’s neck.
She pinched his shoulder a couple of tis:
"You only know how to fool around, put down, I’m so heavy now, and you’re no longer young."
Afraid she’d bring up the at pies again, old Shen carried Han Shuzhen toward the large bed at the center of the bedroom, joking as he went:
"You’re not heavy at all. Zhenzhen, you used to call Guofu Brother all the ti, but now I never hear it..."
