In the evening, Lu Jingyang treated everyone to dinner to celebrate Zhou Bei's second pregnancy and the fact that he was going to be a father again.
Throughout the evening, Lu Jingyang was exceptionally boastful, and even took it upon himself to lecture Shen Li, Gong Xuan, and others in turn, urging them to hurry and deal with being single and get married and have kids, claiming that life with a wife and children was heavenly.
Shen Li was fairly good-natured and couldn't be bothered to respond.
Su Mubai and the others would have none of it and swarmed up to beat him.
However, Lu Jingyang's bragging, coupled with the pressure from his family, still made Shen Li's head ache.
After 10 pm, when Shen Li returned home after dinner, he saw Madam Shen with a confinement headband tied around her forehead, her brows tightly knitted, looking utterly helpless.
She was frowning and talking to the maid, Wu Ma.
She looked like someone struggling with the late joys of fatherhood.
