On the other side, Xu Wanwan also went to the Haiyu Club with her classmates.
At first glance, this Haiyu Club was clearly a very extravagant high-end consumer venue, with the whole building glittering and magnificent, seemingly exuding an air of "no admission for the poor".
Xu Wanwan took out her phone and took a photo, sending it to Ye Jinmeng.

Ye Jinmeng, who was sitting in the passenger seat listening to her parents talk about their travel experiences, received a message on her phone. She immediately replied when she saw it was from Wanwan.
Jinmeng Not Fat: Okay Wanwan, which private room are you in?

Xu Wanwan also took a photo of the private room door.
Jinmeng Not Fat: OK! To make sure you are safe, you must send me a message to check in every 20 minutes until you get back to the dorm.
Jinmeng Not Fat: If you don't send a message after more than one minute, I will send someone to rescue you!
Seeing Jinmeng's message, a warm current flowed through Xu Wanwan's heart.
Wanwan in the Evening Breeze: Okay Jinmeng, I promise to send you a message every 20 minutes.
Jinmeng Not Fat: (づ ̄3 ̄)づ
Seeing his beloved daughter so engrossed with her phone, seemingly chatting with someone, Ye Junli immediately asked, "Jinmeng, are you chatting with a friend? Boy or girl?"
Ye Jinmeng: "Hehe, she's my new roommate. We're good sisters now. She's having a class gathering tonight, so I asked her to check in with me."
Ye Junli breathed a sigh of relief. Good thing it was a girl, if it was a boy, he'd be worried his little girl might get led astray.
Madam Ye of course understood what the girl's father was worried about, and rolled her eyes at him, saying, "Since she's a good friend, bring her home for a meal when you have the chance."
"Our Jinmeng rarely makes friends. Most people just flatter her. Jinmeng doesn't need those fake friendships. I want to see what kind of person can make Jinmeng call her a good friend."
Ye Jinmeng's eyes lit up, "Great! I'll pick a time during the break for her to come over and play!"
"Isn't she going home during the break?" Madam Ye asked curiously.
Ye Jinmeng sighed, "Wanwan only has herself at home now. Wherever she is, that's home to her. So I have to treat her well!"
"I see. Poor thing. Since our darling likes this friend, let her come over more often in the future. Mom will make delicious food for you two."
"Thanks, Mom!" Ye Jinmeng said happily.
Ye Jinchen knew Ye Jinmeng wanted to befriend Xu Wanwan, but didn't expect them to progress so quickly.
He hesitated and asked, "Are you sure there's no problem with her approaching you?"
Ye Jinmeng knew what her brother was thinking, but she couldn't tell her brother Wanwan's secret. She could only say decisively, "I'm absolutely certain Wanwan is a good person, an extremely good person! Don't keep doubting her, brother."
Ye Jinchen sighed, "Alright, since you say so, I'll stop worrying all the time."
Soon the car arrived at the Ye family's old house.
The old house was very large, nestled amidst the mountains and rivers with a pleasant environment. The car stopped at the front door of the villa. As the four got out, they saw Steward Liu come out from inside, smiling and saying, "Master, Madam, Young Master, Miss, the Old Master and Old Madam are inside waiting to start dinner with you all."
Ye Junli also smiled and responded, "Good, Uncle Liu, let's go in then."
Ye Jinchen took the gifts out of the trunk and handed them to the servants, then gave the car keys to the villa's bodyguards, telling them to park the car in the garage. Then the few of them went inside.
"Grandpa, Grandma, your little darling is here!" Ye Jinmeng called out crisp and clear.
Seeing her precious granddaughter had arrived, Old Madam Ye immediately said happily, "Oh, my darling baby, Grandma missed you so much."
Old Master Ye's originally stern expression also softened, "My little darling, are you hungry? Go wash your hands quickly, we're about to start dinner."
"Okay!" Ye Jinmeng gave her grandparents a big hug before running off to the washroom.
Ye Jinchen also greeted Old Master Ye and the others. Old Master Ye also smiled faintly and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Hmm, you're looking more steady than before."
Old Madam also warmly beckoned everyone to go wash their hands and get ready for dinner.
After washing her hands, Ye Jinmeng saw her young uncle Ye Junwen coming down the stairs. He wore gold-rimmed glasses, with a wicked and arrogant look in his eyes. Seeing Ye Jinmeng, the corners of his mouth curved up.
"Jinmeng is here. Long time no see."
"Unc...Uncle, hello." Ye Jinmeng swallowed and respectfully greeted him.
Ye Junwen didn't seem to like Ye Jinmeng's respectful attitude, frowning, "Are you very afraid of me?"
Ye Jinmeng's heart skipped a beat. She smiled awkwardly, "Haha, no, no, Uncle, hurry and wash your hands, it's time to eat."
After speaking, she hurried over to seek comfort from her grandparents.
"Uncle." Ye Jinchen nodded at Ye Junwen in greeting. Ye Junwen glanced at Ye Jinchen, chuckling lightly, "Looks like work has been busy lately, you've lost weight. Eat more tonight, Jinchen."
Ye Jinchen lowered his eyes and nodded, "Thank you for your concern, Uncle."
Ye Junwen didn't look at him again, turning around and walking towards the dining room.
Although Old Master and Old Madam Ye were both over seventy, they were hale and hearty, not looking old at all. After taking their younger son overseas on a trip, they seemed even more spirited.
The Ye family did not adhere to the custom of eating in silence. The family sat happily around the table eating a reunion dinner, with everyone feeding Ye Jinmeng from time to time, simply spoiling her rotten.
Ye Jinmeng tried her best to ignore her young uncle's existence, while also keeping an eye on her phone. Seeing Wanwan had sent her a message on time, she breathed a sigh of relief.
This made Ye Junwen frown involuntarily.
