Shen Jianian was just retrieving a piece of boiled beef from the bubbling pot when her phone rang; she placed the meat into a bowl.
The name "Fu Jichen" flickered on the screen, and Pei Che also saw it, his eyelashes lowering slightly.
Shen Jianian answered the call while seated, not avoiding the presence of Pei Che and Zhou Ruo at the table, she turned slightly towards the wall, lowering her voice: "Have you landed?"
Fu Jichen laughed, but it wasn't a joyful laugh; it was speechless, "Where have you gone?" It's not like she didn't know what time his flight was.
After about three seconds of silence, Shen Jianian understood the meaning behind his question: "Are you at my house now?"
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, it was after six o'clock, almost dinner time. She thought Fu Jichen would return directly to the old house after landing in Beicheng, then spend the New Year with his family tomorrow.
"I'm eating out." Shen Jianian replied honestly.
"Alone?"
