This meal had started off rather dull. Neither Feng Jun nor Red Sister had much interest in talking, while Li Shishi did not dare speak carelessly.
Only after downing several glasses of liquor did Red Sister speak with the help of alcohol. "Are your parents planning to live here long-term?"
"They'll stay for a while, then go back," Feng Jun said, conflicted about it himself. In Yang City, he always felt like an outsider who did not fit in. But by now, he had invested a great deal of money into renovating Luohua Manor.
