Chapter 289: Worried

Mrs. Lin had a way with her words. Even though her words carried similar meanings with that of Mrs. Zhu's, she presented it in a way that was more polite and considerate.

Hearing that, Lu Xingzhi's expression lightened. He nodded. "Well, if she is fine with it, I do not mind her being a stay-at-home wife."

However, Lu Xingzhi knew Jiang Yao all too well. She would not be able to deal with the boredom that came with it.

"Haha! Such a loving husband!" Mrs. Lin laughed. "You guys continue on with your drinking. We ladies will have our own little discussion here."

Beckoning Lu Xingzhi to continue the conversation with the men, Mrs. Lin started an exchange herself, shifting the limelight away from Jiang Yao.

The crowd drank until it was almost eight o'clock. Jiang Yao did not know how much Lu Xingzhi had drunk. She caught the strong whiff of alcohol as he walked past her. However, he did not seem to be drunk, as he strolled along in a steady pace.
