"I knew you would come, take your time, we'll wait for you to start the meal," Wang Daizhen on the other end immediately lit up with a smile.
Hanging up the phone, Ruan Tianling got up to take a shower and changed his clothes before heading out.
As he got into the car and started it, he received another call, this one from Yan Yue.
"Tianling, how about coming over to my place for dinner tonight?"
The second day of the month is traditionally the day when daughters and sons-in-law return to their parents' home for a meal. Even though they weren't married, Yan Yue wanted him to come over to her house. Not only would it reflect well on her, but it would also make her parents happy.
Ruan Tianling started the car and hesitated before responding, "I can't today. How about tomorrow? I have something to do today."
"What's going on?"
"A bit of an urgent matter."
"Can't you come later?"
"Hmm, I might be able to come in the evening."
