The song ended.
Acquaintances came over to chat with He Jinnan, who had escorted Xia Zhi to Ruirui before turning and leaving once again.
"Your second brother is really busy," Xia Zhi remarked, looking at He Jinnan's retreating figure.
She had wanted to sit down and have a chat with him, but before she could say much, he was gone again.
He Jiarui also watched her second brother's back, "For Second Brother, a gathering like this can offer unexpected opportunities. Sister-in-law, please be extra patient with him."
"I'm not blaming him," Xia Zhi sympathized. "It's just... that knife wound hasn't fully healed. He really shouldn't be drinking like this."
He Jiarui smiled with relief, "Seeing you care so much about my second brother, I'm truly happy. The anger I had in my heart has almost dissipated, hasn't it?"
