After taking a stroll around the small town and gazing at the snow mountain, they didn’t return to their lodging until nightfall.
The two of them walked back hand in hand, just like an elderly couple who had been together for a lifetime!
Two lamps with a warm yellow glow hung in front of the inn, giving the night a sense of elegance. Lu Beichen held her hand as they entered, and the innkeeper’s wife warmly greeted them. She was slightly plump with short blonde hair and fair skin, her face adorned with a warm smile.
She spoke words Ji Niandong couldn’t understand, and Lu Beichen turned to ask, "There’s dinner, do you want to eat?"
Ji Niandong nodded, feeling a bit hungry after wandering outside all afternoon. Also, she was quite curious about the local food. Lu Beichen replied and the innkeeper’s wife turned to prepare the meal.
Ji Niandong looked up and asked, "Little Uncle, what language was she speaking?"
"You can’t even understand German?!" came a piercing voice with a hint of disdain, "No wonder, maybe you’re not even familiar with English, let alone German! Don’t you think so?"
Ji Niandong turned to see a girl dressed in a European-style princess gown, with her hair half up; the other half curled and draped over her shoulder, a small crown perched on her head.
She truly looked like a princess who belonged in this castle!
Why did she come here?
Lu Beichen couldn’t help but frown as a familiar small figure appeared behind her, waving slightly at them, "Hello, Mr. Lu, Sister Tongtong, what a coincidence!"
Tu Yingying reached out and poked him on the head, "Don’t you think so? I’m asking you a question, and you haven’t answered yet!"
Lu Beichen furrowed his brows as he walked over and asked bluntly, "Who else is here?"
"Brother Beichen, how did you know there were other people coming?" Tu Yingying’s eyes sparkled with a different kind of light as she looked at him.
Lu Sinian snorted disdainfully, "Mr. Lu isn’t foolish enough to think that our grandparents would trust me to go out with you!"
Indeed, his smart son understands him!
"You...!" Tu Yingying bit her lip, remembering that she was currently in a cooperative relationship with this brat, swallowed all her dissatisfaction, and looked at Lu Beichen with a softer expression, "We came on cousin’s helicopter. Aunt was worried that Nian Nian would be too young to adapt, so she asked cousin to personally bring him over, and they took the opportunity to bring sister-in-law for a break, maybe she’ll get pregnant!"
"You’re the one who made a fuss about not adapting, what does that have to do with me? Wearing such flamboyant clothes!" Lu Sinian looked at her with full disdain, then repeated in German, "I can safely reach Switzerland on my own!"
What a clever child, just like his father!
Ji Niandong hardly got a word in until the attendant called them to prepare for dinner. Only then did Lu Beichen take her hand and walk silently towards the dining room.
"Sister Tongtong, are you going to eat? I’m hungry too, take me with you?" Lu Sinian eagerly ran over and took Ji Niandong’s hand.
Tu Yingying insensitively asked, "Didn’t we just eat?"
Little Bun glared back at her, "Can’t I be hungry again? If you want to go back, go by yourself!"
Tu Yingying glanced at Lu Beichen and quickly followed, "I’ll come too!"
Lu Beichen stood in place, pressing his brow with a deep, cold voice, "Did I say you could join us?"
Tu Yingying couldn’t help but shrink her head, leaning behind Lu Sinian! Little Bun also immediately looked up at Ji Niandong with a pitiful look in his eyes, silently pleading for help!
