When bai yiting received the call, jiang mingxuan was already preparing lunch. It was li zhilan who called. Bai yiting glanced at jiang mingxuan who was busy in the kitchen and told him to discuss it with him before deciding.

Hanging up the phone, jiang mingxuan came out of the kitchen and asked if there was anything wrong. Bai yiting told jiang mingxuan about qiao ruichen's birthday today.

Hearing this, jiang mingxuan frowned and looked at bai yiting." Yesterday, when we went home, didn' t yueran still say that she invited us for a birthday dinner in front of qiao ruichen? What? So they didn' t discuss their birthday together? "

"I don' t know ..." Bai yating shook her head, but she was guessing in her heart," maybe qiao ruichen didn' t take jiang yueran's words to heart at all. He didn' t even hear what jiang yueran said. "

Bai yating knew qiao ruichen too well. Otherwise, she wouldn' t have had such a phone call today.

"Shall we go? "Asked bai yating, looking at jiang mingxuan.

Jiang mingxuan weighed his options and decided that it wouldn' t be good for jiang yueran if he went. If she didn' t go, it was a call from her mother-in-law. It was obvious that li zhilan still hoped jiang mingxuan wouldn' t argue with qiao ruichen, and the whole family would attend the dinner.

Jiang mingxuan thought for a moment before nodding his head." It's free lunch. There's no reason not to eat it. Let's go. I don't have to work at noon. "

The two of them changed their clothes and drove out. When they arrived at the qiao residence, li zhilan called again and asked where bai yiting was.

Bai yiting hung up the phone and carried her things upstairs with jiang mingxuan.

"After dinner, apart from my parents, uncle qiao, and auntie qiao, meng jie's parents will be there as well. You don't want to fight with brother rui chen, okay? Bai yating stood at the door of the corridor and looked at jiang mingxuan.

Seeing that bai yating had said this, jiang mingxuan could not object. Although he was reluctant, he still nodded and agreed," okay, don' t worry. I won' t make things difficult for qiao ruichen. "

"Yes. Bai yating looked gratefully at jiang mingxuan and nodded with a smile.

By the time they arrived at the qiao family home, they had almost arrived. Qiao yu and zhang lan didn' t expect jiang mingxuan to come with them today.

In the room, zhang lan took advantage of the time to put things in qiao yu's ear and whispered," look, you should have listened to me earlier! Since rui chen and miss jiang were together, don't you think his circle and status are more stable? "

"No matter how stable he is, he did not earn it with his hands. He is still unreliable! It was all thanks to the jiang family, otherwise, do you think our family will have today? "Qiao yu was very helpless. If he could, he was still very opposed to qiao ruichen's relationship with a family like the jiang family.

However, qiao ruichen himself didn' t seem to object to being with jiang yueran, so qiao yu couldn' t say anything else. If the two of them were fated, no one would be able to separate them.

Qiao ruichen was cooking in the kitchen. Jiang mingxuan and bai yiting sat down on the sofa. Li zhilan poured jiang mingxuan a glass of water." Mingxuan, I didn' t expect you two to come. "

"Mom, you called yourself. How could we not come? "Said jiang mingxuan, glancing at bai yating.

Li zhilan nodded with a smile. Although it was just a simple matter, it was enough to tell jiang mingxuan's feelings towards bai yiting.

Not long after bai yating and jiang mingxuan sat down, the doorbell rang again. Zhang lan hurriedly opened the door and saw jiang yueran and meng jie standing at the door.

"Oh, it's you, come in and sit down. Zhang lan didn' t know who to greet first, so she greeted them together.

The last time jiang yueran and meng jie met was at bai yating's wedding, and the two of them fought and got married.

Meng jie didn' t show jiang yueran any good looks when she met her downstairs. Jiang yueran didn' t bother with meng jie and walked upstairs with meng jie in a haughty manner.

Now, they were standing at the door of the qiao family home. Meng jie was the one who rang the doorbell without any hesitation. Now that zhang lan invited them into the house, both of them naturally wanted to go in first, so they walked towards the house in unison.

However, the qiao family's main door was not the jiang family's main gate. It was not so spacious that it could accommodate two adults. As a result, the two of them were stuck at the door together! Neither in nor out ...

"Hey, get out first! Or neither of us is going in there! Jiang yueran turned her head unhappily and glared at meng jie. She felt that she was qiao ruichen's girlfriend, and meng jie was just an outsider. She naturally wanted her to go out first and go in first.

However, meng jie did not think so. She and qiao ruichen's childhood sweetheart knew qiao ruichen earlier than bai yiting! Moreover, meng jie had long disliked jiang yueran and wanted her to move away, but there was no way!

"Why didn't you go out first and let me go in first? Aren' t you the eldest daughter of the jiang family? Isn't tutoring great? How could she not understand this courtesy? Meng jie was also displeased. She was not afraid of jiang yueran!

"What are you talking about? I was the one who got here first. I already let you down there once. Shouldn' t you have let me down this time? Jiang yueran's tolerance was also limited. The last time she fought meng jie, she was already magnanimous. Meng jie didn' t expect that meng jie would still be so tense when she saw her.

"You asked me? Are you kidding me? There are surveillance cameras in the neighborhood. Let's go to the security room and get the surveillance footage. Who asked who? Before you say anything! Meng jie was also unhappy and pushed her way through the door.

However, jiang yueran's arm was stuck on the door frame, and it hurt as soon as she squeezed it.jiang yueran was in the same situation at the moment. Therefore, neither of them dared to move.

Jiang mingxuan looked helplessly at jiang yueran and meng jie, who were fighting at the door. She stood up and walked to the two people at the door.

"Brother! Jiang yueran was immediately unhappy when she saw that jiang mingxuan had dragged meng jie in first. Jiang mingxuan was obviously turning his elbows towards the outsiders to bully him.

"Yueran. Jiang mingxuan looked at jiang yueran and said nothing more.

Zhang Lan Railway Station could see clearly from the door. Although he didn' t know why the two of them had a grudge against each other, jiang mingxuan's attitude was very clear. He had sided with meng jie because of bai yating. Everyone present could tell that.

Jiang yueran was not someone zhang lan could offend easily. She quickly went up to jiang yueran and took her slippers. She changed the subject and said," come in quickly. Rui chen has been waiting for you for a long time. "

Hearing zhang lan say that qiao ruichen had been waiting for her for a long time, jiang yueran was a little happy. After calling for someone to come in, she went to the kitchen to see qiao ruichen.

It was the first time jiang yueran had seen qiao ruichen cooking in front of the stove in an apron. She secretly took out her phone and took a photo before smiling and patting qiao ruichen on the shoulder.

Qiao ruichen thought it was zhang lan, and without looking back, he casually said," mom, pass me the salt. "

Jiang yueran didn' t say anything. However, she did not know where the salt was. It was so easy to find the seasoning box, but she did not know which one was salt ...

Because of jiang yueran's dawdling, qiao ruichen was in a hurry to use it again, so he turned his head impatiently. However, when he turned around and saw jiang yueran, qiao ruichen was surprised.

"Why you? When did you get here? Qiao ruichen did not expect jiang yueran to come into the kitchen.

"Which one is salt? Jiang yueran pointed to the seasoning box and looked at qiao ruichen.

Qiao ruichen was a little helpless. He smiled and asked jiang yueran to sit in the living room outside to eat. He took the salt and turned around to continue cooking.

Jiang yueran couldn' t help her in the kitchen and didn' t want to go back to the living room.she stood at the door and watched qiao ruichen busy.

"Go to the living room. Don't be here. The smoke is terrible. "Said qiao ruichen, putting the dishes away and taking out a handful of chili from the cupboard." I'm going to stir-fry the chili. It'll be very hot later. "

"You are not afraid, nor am I. Jiang yueran, a young lady born with a golden key, naturally did not smell the stir-fried pepper.

When qiao ruichen saw that he couldn' t chase her away, he had no choice but to turn around and quickly heat up the chili oil! When the pungent smell of the pepper exploded, jiang yueran couldn' t hold it in any longer and started coughing violently.

"Cough, cough, cough ..." Jiang yueran coughed as she came out of the kitchen, her tears choking on the smell of chili.

The guests in the living room also smelled chili and could not help but cough. Li zhilan looked at zhang lan and asked," where did you buy the chili? Why is it so hot? "

"It was the pepper that old qiao brought back from his business trip to Chongqing last time. It was spicy, but it tasted delicious. You'll find out later. "Said zhang lan, glancing at bai yating and saying," I remember that tingting likes fried clams, so she specially prepared this dish. "

"Thank you, aunt. Bai yating thanked zhang lan with a smile, but meng jie was displeased. She pursed her lips and looked at zhang lan and said," yes, aunt only remembers what tingting likes to eat. I met brother rui chen first." "

Zhang lan couldn' t help but laugh. She looked at meng jie and said," this child is about to get married. He's still like a child. Aunt of course remember you love to eat oil carp, rui chen is early to the market to kill fish, later on under the pot. "

"I knew aunt wouldn't forget me. Meng jie smiled happily, but bai yating was a little embarrassed.

She didn' t want jiang mingxuan to misunderstand her because of this small matter. What jiang yueran said to her last night was still in her ears. However, bai yating had no choice. She grew up with qiao ruichen as childhood sweethearts, but it wasn' t her fault.

Qiao ruichen was sweating profusely in the kitchen. It was after twelve o 'clock that he put a large table full of dishes on the table.

Meng jie's parents didn' t come because they were on a business trip. Li zhilan went to the kitchen to help zhang lan open the cake she had bought and took it to the table.

"Child, thank you. "Said li zhilan, looking at qiao ruichen. If it was not jiang mingxuan, li zhilan still preferred qiao ruichen as her son-in-law.

"It's not hard, auntie. Sit down quickly. "Qiao ruichen quickly took the stool and asked li zhilan to sit down next to bai yating.

Because the qiao family's space was really limited, it was a bit difficult for jiang yueran and jiang mingxuan to have a large family of people crammed into a small living room of ten square meters.

However, it was qiao ruichen's birthday today and the conditions were limited. Although jiang yueran was unhappy, she didn' t say anything.

Moreover, this was the first time she had eaten qiao ruichen's personally cooked food. She was so excited!

After pouring the wine, qiao ruichen raised his glass and looked at everyone present. He smiled and said," today's birthday, thank you for your support. "

After that, qiao ruichen finished the beer in his glass. The others also gave face to qiao ruichen's happy birthday and dried the wine in their cups.

After qiao ruichen gave thanks to the toast, qiao yu pulled the plug on the cake and lit it." Come, ruichen, make a wish to blow out the candles." "

"Yes. "Said qiao ruichen, putting his hands together and making a wish, and blowing out the candle.

"What wish? Meng jie looked at qiao ruichen and asked jokingly.

"I won't tell you. Qiao ruichen chuckled and took the cake aside to make room for more places on the table for everyone to put cups or something.

Qiao ruichen was his birthday today, so meng jie picked up a piece of fish and tasted it." Well, your skills have improved." "

"Thank you. Qiao ruichen looked at meng jie with a smile. After that, he took the fish with his own hands and gave it to zhang lan, then put another piece into jiang yueran's bowl.

"Thank you. Jiang yueran was somewhat flattered. She did not expect that qiao ruichen would take care of her like this.

"You' re my girlfriend, do you still have to be polite to me? "Said qiao ruichen, holding a prawn with sugar and vinegar, and placing it in jiang yueran's bowl. I knew you loved it that day, so I went to buy it today. "

Qiao ruichen looked at jiang yueran. It wasn' t really because jiang yueran liked to eat, but qiao ruichen had specially prepared it.

However, jiang yueran was now blinded by love and believed qiao ruichen's words. Plus, he personally picked up fish and peeled shrimp shells for her, so jiang yueran really couldn' t extricate herself.

"Tingting, try this. You like it. Qiao ruichen couldn' t help but point at the fried clams placed on bai yating's plate with his chopsticks.

Bai yiting nodded.she looked at the clam skin on her plate and said," I' ve eaten a lot. It's still delicious." "

Jiang mingxuan sat by the side and didn' t say anything. Bai zhiming's eyes were bright and bright as he watched, his heart was filled with comfort. It was said that once they entered a rich family, it was as if the ocean was deep. Seeing how well their daughter and son-in-law got along, bai zhiming, as his father-in-law, was still very gratified.

However, when jiang yueran, who was sitting beside qiao ruichen, heard this, she was unhappy. The joy in her heart disappeared in an instant ...

She thought that qiao ruichen was only taking care of himself and zhang lan, did not expect qiao ruichen is who are taking care of.

After a meal, li zhilan stood up to help zhang lan clean up the table.bai yiting and meng jie also helped her with the table.only jiang yueran stood by the side and didn' t know how to do it.

Zhang lan glanced at jiang yueran and knew that such a rich lady wouldn' t do this. She smiled and asked jiang yueran to sit in the living room for a while.she was a guest and deserved to rest.

Jiang yueran was helpless.she really didn' t want to touch the oily leftovers, so she could only follow qiao ruichen and sit down on the sofa in the living room.

After bai yating and meng jie helped to take the plate down, they went to the bathroom to wash their hands. Meng jie closed the door behind her. Like when they were young, their best friend secretly hid in the toilet and whispered something.

"I didn't expect you to come today. Meng jie whispered as she approached bai yating.

"I didn' t want to. I don' t want to be jiang yueran's public enemy anymore. However, my mother called me, and mingxuan felt that it was not good not to come, so he came with me. Otherwise, you think I want to get involved? Bai yating rubbed her hands with soap.

"I don' t think jiang yueran will be happy today. "Said meng jie, curling her lips.

Bai yiting was stunned when she heard that.jiang yueran looked quite happy today.how could she not be happy? Bai yiting couldn' t help but look at meng jie and ask curiously," why did you say that? "

Seeing that jiang yueran was dressed so beautifully, everyone knew that she was the heart of si ma zhaoming - everyone knew that. "Meng jie said, sneering disdainfully." Last time, I really should have hit her harder. I' ll see if she dares to bully you in the future! "

"She's getting along well with me now, not against me like she used to. "She thought, not knowing what to say. When she was in front of others, jiang yueran was polite to her. However, when the two of them were alone, jiang yueran felt a little strange.

"It would be best if I really became friends with you, but I think it's very difficult. Tingting, you better have a snack! As long as qiao ruichen didn' t give up on jiang yueran for a day, jiang yueran wouldn' t treat you sincerely. "Said meng jie, wiping her hands with a towel.

When she came out one after another with bai yiting, zhang lan had already cut the fruit and brought it up.she even cut a few pieces of cake and brought it over.

Seeing meng jie come out of the bathroom, zhang lan greeted with a smile," meng jie, come quickly. Mother tingting knows that you like strawberry cake. She specially ordered it early in the morning and tried it. "

"Thank you, aunt. Meng jie said as she sat down next to bai yiting on the sofa.

Zhang lan looked at meng jie's happy eating and secretly let out a sigh of relief. Among the people present today, jiang mingxuan was the biggest.

Although jiang yueran was very important and was zhang lan's best friend, compared to jiang mingxuan, jiang yueran was not worth mentioning.

The reason why zhang lan did not avoid being nice to meng jie was because meng jie was happy and bai yating would be happy too. Bai yiting's heart relaxed, and jiang mingxuan felt more comfortable.

The relationship between this person and people was so delicate, and zhang lan had a very good grasp of this aspect.

Bai zhiming was chatting with qiao yu, and jiang yueran pestered qiao ruichen to look at his school photos.

Qiao ruichen had no choice but to take jiang yueran to his room. The door was closed and the two of them were alone in the room.while qiao ruichen was looking for the photo, jiang yueran continued to look around his desk.

The books on the table were the same ones she had seen when she came to take care of qiao ruichen with a fever, but the pages of the bookmarks were changed.

When jiang yueran looked at qiao ruichen's desk, she accidentally saw an old photo of him on the table. She didn' t know if he had put it on recently or if it had been before.

Jiang yueran frowned and picked it up. The photo was probably taken by qiao ruichen in high school. It was the school basketball court in the summer. Qiao ruichen was dressed in a ball suit and had an orange basketball on his arm.

The petite girl standing next to qiao ruichen, with her bangs tied in two ponytails. The eyes are big and the skin is very white.

Jiang yueran looked carefully, and the more she looked, the more she felt that the girl looked familiar. In the end, she suddenly realized that the girl standing beside qiao ruichen was bai yiting!

Jiang yueran was a little surprised. She looked at qiao ruichen, who was squatting by the bed looking for a photo album, and asked curiously," is the person in this photo my second sister-in-law?" "

Qiao ruichen heard that and turned to look at jiang yueran. Noticing that she was holding a photo of him on the desk, she nodded and said," it was a photo from freshman year. At that time, tingting was still in junior high school. She especially came to my school to watch me play in the afternoon. Because they won the first place, they took a photo together. "

"Oh, have you always kept it on the desk? Jiang yueran looked at qiao ruichen and probed.

"It must have been years, and I don't remember. I've just been busy with my work lately, so I don't have time to change. Now that she remembered, she took advantage of her time and put it away. "As qiao ruichen spoke, he walked to jiang yueran with a few albums and placed them on the desk. Then he took the photo in jiang yueran's hand and took it out.

"Yueran, don' t misunderstand. This photo has been a long time, I just did not put up, please do not because of this and I have any misunderstanding. Qiao ruichen was afraid that jiang yueran would have a knot in his heart, and he was even more afraid that jiang yueran would take advantage of the situation. He went back to the jiang family to target bai yiting, so now, he explained clearly to avoid trouble in the future.

Jiang yueran didn' t expect qiao ruichen to explain to her. Was he afraid that she would misunderstand? However, jiang yueran did not deny it. At the moment she heard qiao ruichen's explanation, she was very happy.

Not to mention anything else, as long as qiao ruichen explained, it was because he cared about her. Therefore, jiang yueran was happy.

"Why would I misunderstand you? We agreed that we would get along. You have to accommodate me and I will try to change my temper." "Said jiang yueran, standing up from the chair and hugging qiao ruichen. She whispered in his ear," rui chen, I still hope we can be together. Really. "

Qiao ruichen initially rejected jiang yueran's hug, but now he was getting used to it, so when jiang yueran hugged him, he also raised his hand to hug her.

"Yes. Qiao ruichen let go of jiang yueran and said," here, take a look at the photos." "

As he spoke, qiao ruichen took jiang yueran's hand and sat down by the bed.
