Chapter 1792: Chapter 1792: I’m Worried It’ll Get Awkward

Yueyue softly said, "Let’s forget it this time, but you can’t do it again. By doing this, it’ll be hard for Luo Chen to handle, my sister will also be embarrassed, and I’ll be stuck in the middle."

Qi Junrui laughed as he got into the car, "You probably don’t understand men. If Luo Chen were just a simple university research student, I’d definitely consider these things. But he’s not; his company, though not yet comparable in scale to the one I took over from my grandfather, is nothing to overlook either.

He’s a young man with vision and capability, so what I can think of, he can think of too. Don’t worry, you’re overthinking it."

Yueyue turned to look at Qi Junrui, "With what you just said, I feel much more relieved. I’m just worried you’ll give gifts to Xiao Rui and the others for the New Year, and if Luo Chen isn’t prepared, it might look bad."

Qi Junrui smiled and said, "When we get home, let’s not take the things out right away. We’ve already agreed to have dinner tonight, and we’ll definitely meet. Once we meet, you’ll see."

Qi Junrui started the car, "Let’s go, homeward bound."

Yueyue looked at his excitement, "I have to say, you’re really happy about visiting my home, aren’t you?"

Qi Junrui smiled gently, "You’re like someone who’s always full and doesn’t know the hunger of others. You grew up in a big family, surrounded by love and care from your family.

But me, I lived with my stepfather’s family when I was young, just a tag-along. My mom wanted to protect me, but there were many things she couldn’t control. I really understood her, so I never blamed her.

In those days, the fact that she could give birth to me was already a big challenge. So during those years with my stepfather’s family, aside from occasional care from my mom, no one else cared about me.

Later, grandpa took me back, but it was just the two of us in the house, and it was terribly quiet. I envied those classmates and colleagues around me who had lots of family members.

Now you see, I finally have so many family members, and I just love the atmosphere of a family gathering together. Now I no longer have to envy others because I have it too."

Yanyan said with some sympathy for Qi Junrui, "In the future, feel free to come around often. Grandma Rong’s cooking is delicious; you can come for meals often."

Qi Junrui gave Yueyue a big smile, thinking that your box of popcorn chicken from over a decade ago was my salvation, "Sure, count me in for all the gatherings over at Great Granny’s place."

Yueyue smiled and turned her head to look out the window, "Great, we’ll call you for every family gathering, so you won’t have to envy others anymore and can make up for the regrets."

Laughing and chatting, the two arrived at the front of the house, just getting out of the car as they saw Luo Chen’s car pulling in too.

Seeing them getting out with stuff in their hands, Qi Junrui had a look of ’I told you so’ on his face as he looked at Yueyue.

Yueyue made a funny face at him, then ran towards her sister, "Sister, Luo Chen, did everything go smoothly picking up our third uncle this morning?"

Yanyan smiled and linked arms with Yueyue, "It went well. The doctor said our uncle is in pretty good health. If it were anyone else, they might have to spend the New Year in the hospital, but the main thing is for uncle to rest at home."

Yueyue smiled and said, "That’s good. I’ve finished my thing today, so I’ll take Junrui over tomorrow to see him. I’d feel more assured after seeing him personally."

Everyone chatted and laughed as they went into the courtyard. A neighbor standing not far away said, "Ah, comparisons make you frustrated. Look at the Lu Family, their conditions are already enviable, and even the partners their daughters find are top-notch. Truly enviable."
