Zhou Rou first apologized to the two at the table: "I'm sorry, Auntie, Sister-in-law, I wasn't feeling well just now, so I kept you waiting!"
Mrs. Han waved dismissively: "Lunch being late is no big deal. Xiao Rou, come sit down! Treat this place like your own home. Your sister-in-law and I are easygoing people and won't nitpick about anything with you!"
"Yes, sit down! Don't be too polite!" Yin Qi quickly chimed in, though her heart held a bit of bitterness.

Ever since Han Mingxue announced he would bring home the girlfriend Mrs. Han had been eagerly waiting for, Mrs. Han had been positively energized.
