Dinner time was fast approaching. The door squeaked open and GuHai's eyes looked toward the door. A boy with clear features stood in front of him with a surprised look.

"Come, TongTian......" BaiHanQi beckoned MengTongTian, "Do you still recognize this person?"

GuHai smiled at MengTongTian. He was a bit afraid to recognize him. His impression of the MengTongTian had always been the little cute boy who had a habit of sitting in the yard all day. In a flash, he had grown up.

"How could I not recognize him?" MengTongTian heartily smiled, "Isn't he GuHai gege1?!"

1Note: gege means older brother.

BaiLuoYin's mouth dropped, "You're so old now. Isn't it awkward to call him that? Just call him 'ge' and leave it at that."

On the other side, the two didn't even pay attention to him and continued talking as if nobody was there. The eight years of separation did not seem to have cause any distance in their relationship.

"HaiGe, all the toys that you bought for me all those years ago, I've kept them all."

"Compared to your brother, you are a lot more affectionate."

"Oh yeah, HaiGe ...... do you have Weibo2?"

2Note: Weibo is a Chinese social media site like Facebook, Twitter.

"Yes, but I don't use it often."

While the two are chatting away, MengTongTian continued to tightly grip onto GuHai's hand. BaiLuoYin stared at him for a long time. He didn't even seem to be aware that he's doing that, as if it was something so natural for him to do.

"It's almost ready." BaiLuoYin coldly reminded on the side.

"You have?! Hehheh......let's add to each other's social network!!" MengTongTian still followed closely behind GuHai.

BaiLuoYin roared with a dark face "Go back into your room to do your homework!!"

MengTongTian looked angrily at BaiLuoYin. Then looked at GuHai, and whispered to him, "Don't forget, don't forget ..."

During dinner, BanHanQi continuously serve food to GuHai, "Eat more..eat more."

"Uncle, you go ahead and eat. Don't bother with me. I am sure that I could eat to my fill in your home." As GuHai was saying this, he habitually reached over to grab BaiLuoYin's bowl to give him some noodles.

BaiHanQi's eyes paused a bit. BaiLuoYin also felt that the atmosphere was a bit out of place. He quickly took the bowl back, slightly coughed and said, "It's okay, I'll do it myself."

BaiHanQi buried his head and ate two mouthfuls of noodles. After swallowing, his emotions calmed down and he continued to casually chat with GuHai, "DaHai when are you planning on getting married?"

"Get married?" GuHai sucked the noodles into his mouth, looked up and asked, "Get married to whom?"

"The girl from last time! Didn't both of you already have an engagement dinner?"

Speaking of this, Aunt Zhou also stopped her chopsticks and looked at GuHai with concerns.

"Oh, her ...." GuHai carelessly responded, "It didn't work out."

"Didn't work out?" BaiHanQi's had on a pity expression, "It was going well. How come it didn't work out?"

"Our personality is incompatible." GuHai responded half-heartedly.

The noodles in BaiLuoYin's mouth were also a bit hard to swallow.

"Ooooohhh ... ..." BaiHanQi sighed, "You young people, the things you do are so fickle and indecisive. YinZi is the same, having set him up more than ten times, none worked out."
