"Madam, the master said he won't be coming back for dinner tonight," Zhang Ma put down the phone, looking a bit at a loss.
"What? Today is his birthday, and he clearly said he would be back this morning."
The 19th just happened to be a weekday; they had work during the day. Before leaving in the morning, Xia Lu had specifically asked if he had plans for the evening, and he explicitly said no.
Without the main character, wasn't this whole day's surprise setup completely meaningless?
At this moment, Guan Li pushed open the front door and walked in, "Look what I've brought~" she said, presenting a large champagne bottle from behind her.
Seeing her excitement, Xia Lu felt almost too bad to speak up.
"Mom… Zhou Mingchen said he won't be coming home for dinner, it seems like we have to postpone our birthday gathering."
