27 Let's go, uncle Shi Fen!

Li Hua blinked a few times when he saw Shi Fen. Who was this guy?

When he saw Mu Xijiu standing closely at him, he couldn't help but feel irritated. Why was she standing close to another man? Do they know each other?

Despite his uneasiness, it wasn't seen in Li Hua's face. He smiled to Shi Fen, "Are you a friend of my wife and daughter?"

"Ex-wife." Mu Xijiu corrected with a plain smile on her lips.

Li Bingbing cleared her throat before she added, "And ex-daughter."

Li Hua furrowed his brows at the mother and daughter duo. They were obviously making it hard for him.

Shi Fen's lips slightly curled up when he heard the two. It wasn't because he found it funny, it was because they were clearly maintaining distance from Li Hua.

"I am a friend of Xi'er." Shi Fen said with a small smile on his lips.

Xi'er? The intimate way of calling Mu Xijiu made Li Hua bitter. How can Mu Xijiu allow another man to call her this way?

"Anyway, do you need anything with us? " Li Bingbing asked with a smile as she crossed her arms. "We're about to leave to make it fast.

Li Hua was supposed to say goodbye to Mu Xijiu and Li Bingbing but when he saw another man with them, he couldn't just leave them with Shi Fen.

"Well, I just wanted to invite you to a newly opened restaurant nearby."

"Ah, we're actually going there too." Mu Xijiu said.

"Great! Would it be alright if I join you to it?" Li Hua asked with a smile.

A small mischievous glint appeared in Li Bingbing's eyes but it soon disappeared and was hidden behind her smile, "Sure, we don't really mind it if you come."

Mu Xijiu and Li Hua turned to Li Bingbing in surprise. They didn't expect her to say something like that so easily. Was she finally accepting Li Hua back?

"We should get going, we won't get anywhere if we just stand here." Li Bingbing then went and clung her arms around Shi Fen's arm, "Let's go, uncle Shi Fen!"

Uncle... Shi Fen?

Mu Xijiu and Li Hua stared wide-eyed at Li Bingbing and Shi Fen's leaving figures. Even Shi Fen was surprised with it.

When Li Bingbing noticed the two wasn't following them, she stopped and turned to them, "Why are you two not moving, let's go, I'm starving!"

...

Green Valley Restaurant.

"He's your high school best friend?" Li Hua asked as he looked at Mu Xijiu was sitting in front of him.

"Yeah, he was really a scary guy during high school." She turned to Shi Fen who was sitting beside her, "How did we become friends again?"

Li Bingbing made sure that her mother, Mu Xijiu would be sitting beside Shi Fen while Li Hua would sit in front of the two. Since she wanted to corner Li Hua, Li Bingbing didn't have a choice but to sit beside him.

"You threw my table upside down and punched me in the face for breaking your friend's heart." Shi Fen said with a straight face.

"..."

That was an... unusual way to become friends.

Mu Xijiu started laughing when she heard his words, "Oh come on, that was the first time interacted with each other! How can you call that becoming friends?"

"You were the only person who was brave enough to do that so I considered you as one." Shi Fen said with seriousness in his face.

"You're really a weird man, Huang Amma."

Huang Amma...?

"Aren't you the same, Tai Hou?"

Li Hua clenched his fists under the table when he heard the nicknames they have for each other. Just by hearing it, Li Hua can already guess how close the two were.

Meanwhile, Li Bingbing couldn't help but enjoy her father's demise when she saw how he looked at Mu Xijiu and Shi Fen.

But it was actually surprising to hear that her gentle mother was actually such a woman during her high school days.

"So, when will be the wedding?" Li Bingbing asked with a bright smile on her lips.

Mu Xijiu choked on the drink she just drank and she started coughing out because of it.

"Li Bingbing!" Li Hua glared at his daughter before he turned and was about to reach out a handkerchief to Mu Xijiu but Shi Fen was fast enough to offer it to her first.

Shi Fen was looking worriedly at Mu Xijiu and he was rubbing her back gently, "Are you alright?"

Li Hua's eyes darkened. He was about to stand up but Li Bingbing held him down, "Oh yeah, Mr. Li, I heard from mom that you wanted to come to my graduation, I would really be happy if you can. I also don't mind it if you want to put the medals on me."
