That day, Xia Lu returned home on time, planning to continue working in her room after dinner. As soon as she entered, she unexpectedly saw Jin Fengnan sitting on the sofa at her home, with Aunt Zhang serving him tea.
She paused for two seconds and quickly went up to greet him, "Are you here to see Zhou Mingchen?"
"Yes, but Achen said he might be back a bit late and told us to eat first." Jin Fengnan stood up and, surprisingly, headed straight for the dining room as if it were his own place. Xia Lu hurriedly put down her bag and followed him inside. She found this situation odd; since Jin Fengnan came to see Zhou Mingchen, why didn't he check the time beforehand, and instead, he came over just to find no one home?
Aunt Zhang set the dishes on the table, served the soup, and then left, leaving only the two of them in the dining room, where the atmosphere felt awkward.
