Chapter: 5330

Ye Chen, Ito Kanako, and Tanaka Hiroki poured cups and exchanged saucers. Menu-chan stood nearby, constantly refilling their drinks.

What was interesting is that Menu-chan only refilled the drink for Ye Chen, while Ito Emi only refilled it for Ito Kanako, but Tanaka Hiroki had to refill his own drink.

The so-called "dragon's roar in nine heavens" didn't seem good to Ye Chen, except for its pure rice flavor. This kind of clear liquor was basically the same as drinking tap water to him.

However, since it was brought by Ito Kanako from afar and was a national treasure, Ye Chen naturally gave him enough face.

Including the top-grade seafood sashimi prepared by Ito Emi, Ye Chen still praised it endlessly.

But in his heart, he thought that raw fish itself had no flavor. Eating it was just about the texture of different fish meat. After dipping it with soy sauce and wasabi, the overall taste wasn't much different.

This point is very similar to hot pot - eating it again and again, and all you get is the taste of the pot bottom and condiments.

After lunch at Ito's new home, Ye Chen chatted idly with Ito Kanako for a while before getting up and leaving.

He had previously told Xu Zhifu that he would visit Du Haiqing's house, so naturally couldn't go back on his word.

Although he had drunk quite a bit with those two, fortunately he had spiritual energy in his body, so before departing, he used his spiritual energy to completely cleanse all the alcohol from his system, and only then got into the car to head back to his old home.

At this point, Du Haiqing and Xu Zhifu, as well as their siblings, had already eaten lunch. Xu Zhifu had changed into clean clothes, combed her hair, and tied it up, looking very calm and composed.

Xu Jiyue sat on the sofa, constantly paying attention to the activity outside the garden, hoping to be able to see Ye Chen arrive at the first opportunity.

When the car driven by Ye Chen slowed down and came to a stop in front of the gate, Xu Jiyue's entire body suddenly filled with joy, and she quickly told her mother and brother: "Mr. Ye has arrived!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she had already stood up and was running towards the door.

Du Haiqing and Xu Zhifu also hurriedly got up and followed behind, coming out to greet them.

When Ye Chen got out of the car, these three people had already walked ahead, with two following behind.

Xu Jiyue opened the old-fashioned iron gate, feeling a bit shy yet still courteous, saying: "Mr. Ye has arrived!"

Xu Zhifu also said very politely: "Mr. Ye......"

Du Haiqing was not as reserved as the other two; she seemed to have seen a good friend's child and spoke warmly: "Ye Chen is here, let's go inside!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly, saying respectfully: "Aunt Du, it's been a while since I haven't come to visit you, how have you been lately?"

Du Haiqing smiled and said: "I'm doing well. The environment in Jinling is really comfortable for me, and recently there are fewer worries than before, so I'm feeling quite at ease."

Ye Chen nodded again: "That's good! Although I haven't been to Jinling during that time, it seems unlikely that you'll go out during this period. If you have any matters in Jinling that need help, just contact me anytime."

"Acknowledged!" Du Haiqing didn't beat around the bush, smiled and agreed, then invited Ye Chen into the house.

Upon entering this old mansion, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a sense of being transported to another era.

When his parents first rented this place, they were very meticulous in their renovation, just like now. Although it looks the same as before, it still gives people a fresh and new feeling. JrNovels.com
