"Meijia, you look so beautiful tonight."
Upon seeing Chen Meijia, Kang Yong'an became unusually enthusiastic.
"Where's my grandfather?" Chen Meijia asked.
Kang Yong'an replied, "He's chatting inside with my grandfather."
With that, Kang Yong'an finally noticed Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Young Master Jiang, when did you return?"
Jiang Xiaobai said, "Mr. Kang, I just got back."
"Meijia, shall we go inside? There aren't many people tonight, just the two grandfathers, you, and me—four people in total."
Kang Yong'an took Chen Meijia's hand and walked inside. Jiang Xiaobai did not follow. Two hours later, when the meal was almost over, Jiang Xiaobai entered the Lin Yuan Pavilion; it was his time to appear.
He pushed open the door; the two old men were still chatting there.
"How rude! Who let you in?"
Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai, Kang Yong'an immediately stood up, pointed to the door, and said with a cold expression, "Get out!"
Jiang Xiaobai ignored him and closed the door.
