Chapter 311 - Mother & Daughter (1/2)

Xu Mey had to run inside the living room just to avoid Jie who was grinning in amusement at her retreating figure.

"Xiao Mey, when did you come?" Xu Mey was still looking in the direction of Jie when she heard her father's voice.

"Huh?" Xu Mey was brought back to reality and she cleared her throat before coming beside her father to take a seat. "I just got back, dad. How's your ankle?" She leaned a bit to check his ankle herself. After seeing that there was no more swelling, she was a bit relieved.

"I told you it wasn't a big deal. See, it's absolutely fine now." Xu Cheng tried to convince her but Xu Mey wasn't assured at all. She knew even if the swelling was gone, there must be some pain left.

She didn't want to reprimand her father before other people so she changed her direction towards her in-laws. "Father, Aunt Su, when did you get here?" Xu Cheng frowned at her way of addressing Zhu Chen as father and calling He Susu, Aunt Su. But he didn't point it out just yet.

"We came right from the police station. Since you looked anxious when you left in the morning, we decided to check up on your dad." Zhu Chen answered her question and Xu Mey nodded her head slightly in understanding.

"Stay for dinner then... I'm preparing a feast today." Xu Mey announced in a cheery voice Everyone in the room raised their brows while Jie who was leaning against the door frame was frowning. Why did she suddenly think about hosting a dinner party?

Knowing his wife, Jie knew that Xu Mey wouldn't just host a party out of nowhere. She definitely had a reason for it. But the question was, what is the reason?

"Feast? Who are you inviting?" Fan Bingbing asked.

"Auntie, I'm inviting everyone," replied Xu Mey in a frisky manner. "Oh, oh, Wang Ge will also bring Yang Ziyi." She informed Fan Bingbing with a big smile on her face.

"Really? That's awesome!" Seeing both Fan Bingbing and Xu Mey chatting happily, Xu Cheng could only shake his head in disbelief. While He Susu was rather uncomfortable that her own daughter-in-law wasn't actually this attached to her.

This relationship needed some serious bonding!

"I have a lot of work to do, I better get started now." Xu Mey announced as she lunged to her feet. She looked at her father and said, "Dad, wish me luck."

"You're not going on a battlefield, honey." Xu Cheng reminded her since Xu Mey's posture and attitude both were screaming that she actually was going to war.
