“Nannan, Nannan, there’s no need for that,” Qin Ran hurriedly interrupted. After all, she wasn’t the only one eating. Wouldn’t the siblings lose their stomachs if she ordered the spiciest soup base?
“It’s fine since you like it!” Su Nan’s domineering look was simply the ceiling of how a best friend should be.
“Nannan, there’s really no need. I love spicy food, but there’s a limit! And if I eat too much spicy food, my stomach will hurt.” It seemed that only by showing weakness could Su Nan’s enthusiasm be slightly reduced.
“Alright then. Let’s have a medium spicy one, but serve us all the dishes.”
“Nannan, there’s no need for that. I think there are more than a hundred dishes in this restaurant!” Qin Ran frowned. This scene was like when she pulled Su Nan away from fighting when she was young.
“It’s fine. I’m rich. This is the first time I’m treating you to a meal in so many years. It must be grand.” Su Nan patted her chest again with an expression that said, “I’m the boss, I get to decide.”
Qin Ran gave Su Wang a look, indicating for him to help persuade Su Nan. Unexpectedly, the other party only smiled simply and turned to the waiter. “Let’s follow this standard first. We’ll call you again if we want to add more dishes.”
More dishes? Qin Ran had obviously found an accomplice for the other party.
“Alright, Qingqing, eat in peace. It’s not easy for us to get together for a meal in Xuanchuan. We must be happy about it.”
Alright, from the looks of it, Su Nan and Su Wang did not lack the money for this meal.
The hotpot soup was served in a few minutes. The three of them chatted casually before the dishes were served. Su Nan talked about what happened in the countryside that day.
“I’m sorry, Brother Su Wang. I’ve made things difficult for you.” Mo Chi immediately turned hostile, causing Su Wang to be embarrassed. After all, he was the brother who had grown up with her. Qin Ran still felt very apologetic.
“It was I who made things difficult for you!” Su Wang said in a low voice. His tightly pursed lips opened and closed, as if he had something to say.
“Brother, Qingqing is one of us. If there’s anything you’re worried about, just say it.” Actually, there was a huge difference in the personalities of these two siblings. Compared to Su Nan, Su Wang was much more restrained.
Qin Ran also nodded. She might as well answer all their questions at once. It would be more comfortable to get along in the future once that was done.
“Why did you marry him? Do you have any difficulties?” Su Wang admitted that Mr. Mo was very handsome and charming, but no matter what, the age gap could not be ignored.
Since the other party was honest, Qin Ran had to be honest too. She carefully organized her words in regards to this question and said, “I really don’t have any difficulties, but I got married by chance.”
After the first question, Su Wang asked the second question. “Then why didn’t you get a divorce? Is he really good to you?”
Was Mo Chi really good to her? Qin Ran had actually never thought of this question. After pondering for a while, she said, “He’s quite good to me. He’s not bad. Although I wasn’t very willing to get married back then, I slowly feel his kindness towards me now and am willing to try to be together for the rest of my life.”
This was indeed Qin Ran’s thoughts. It was also what she said to Mo Chi that night in the countryside.
“Alright, since you’ve already confirmed your feelings, I sincerely hope that you’ll be happy in the future.” After Su Wang finished speaking, he raised his wine glass and toasted Qin Ran.
In fact, as a younger sister who was five years younger than him and had grown up together with him, Su Wang doted on her more than he loved her. When Qin Ran was in high school, he didn’t see her again because of his family’s business. In the past year, when he heard that Qingqing’s family had undergone an unexpected change and her parents who doted on her had died, he wanted to bring her to his side to take care of her.
However, from the looks of it now, she was already twenty years old and was no longer the child from back then. Since she had the ability to make decisions for her own life, he would sincerely wish her well in the future.
Qin Ran quickly raised her glass in agreement. As expected of her childhood playmate, he didn’t say anything that made things difficult for her.
Su Nan also raised her glass and shouted a toast to their long friendship.
It was still early after the three of them had dinner. The second and third floors of the mall were for buying makeup and jewelry. Su Nan pulled Qin Ran along to shop.
“There’s no need for beauty makeup. I want to give you a gift that you can use and see for the rest of your life,” Su Nan said with a smile.
Qin Ran, who had already rejected her many times just now, had already given up resisting. Anyway, it wasn’t like she didn’t have the money to repay her. No matter how much Su Nan spent for her, she would definitely return it tenfold.
