As childhood friends who grew up together, Ji Liunian had always wanted to lend Han Chengchi a hand, and within their circle, the only one who had ventured into business and done it best and biggest was Sheng Shi. Ji Liunian knew that Han Chengchi's relationship with Sheng Shi wasn't particularly good currently because of Gu Lanshan, but he still made an effort and brought the two together for a meal.
The dinner reservation was set for the weekend, with Ji Liunian playing host, inviting Sheng Shi and Han Chengchi to the Beijing Hotel for lunch.
To avoid being overwhelmed on his own, Ji Liunian also called Xia Fanhua to join.
Initially, at the start of the meal, it was just Ji Liunian and Xia Fanhua keeping the conversation alive, reminiscing about the mischief and fun they got up to in their youth, naturally mentioning the times Sheng Shi and Han Chengchi got into trouble and were punished together.
