Liu Shihua and Zhang Xinlan sat next to each other, with Ye Chen facing them across a table laden with a lavish spread of dishes.
"This abalone is really nourishing!"
"These wood ear mushrooms are also great, crispy and delicious, leaving a lingering fragrance, very nice!"
Ye Chen occasionally let out a word of praise as he started to ravage the table full of food, thoroughly enjoying himself.
However, only Ye Chen was reveling in the aroma of the meal; Zhang Xinlan and Liu Shihua each harbored their own thoughts, silently pushing food around in their bowls.
Liu Shihua was pondering how to face Zhang Xinlan in the future because of what had happened with Ye Chen, which made her feel particularly guilty towards Zhang Xinlan.
But, Liu Shihua didn't want to become love rivals with Zhang Xinlan, who had shown her immeasurable love. In fact, it could be said that Liu Shihua's achievements today were largely due to the immense contributions of Zhang Xinlan!
