Chapter 510 - Just Inviting a Few People for a Meal
Chapter 657 of "City's Best Divine Doctor" begins with: Ye Qiu hadnât played a game for a long time, but now, on his desk,... See the full story!
Ye Qiu hadnât played a game for a long time, but now, on his desk, there was a laptop that was the most expensive brand, and it never lagged while playing games.
When he had just returned, Ye Qiu turned on his computer and logged into the game client of "Monster Continent." He planned to take some time to play and relax.
Right now, he didnât know where Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming were playing in Jiangnan, but as soon as he logged into the game, that âAngry Little Lolitaâ appeared behind him, calling him âbig brother.â
Previously, Little Lolita had asked to join Ye Qiuâs team many times, but Ye Qiu ignored her because she had sneakily stolen the equipment he had fought for.
Now, without Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming, as Little Lolita followed him to grind experience points, Ye Qiu didnât pay attention to her either. As he was playing with his headphones on, he saw his sister come up to him and, after pausing the game, asked, "Sis, whatâs up?"
"Dad said he wants to celebrate for you tonight. He asked how many people you plan to invite over for dinner."
"Isnât he going to host a banquet?"
"Heâs too scared, after last time. Heâs still shaken up."
Ye Qiu didnât know whether to laugh or cry. He felt that Ye Weidong was a bit too timid. Even if such a thing happened again, Ye Qiu could still heal those people.
But because of that last time, Ye Weidong got really scared.
Now Ye Weidong was asking how many people he should invite over for dinner.
After thinking about it, Ye Qiu decided that since there wouldnât be a banquet, it would just be the family and maybe Liu Lingxiu. But Liu Lingxiu had just returned home, and it wasnât possible for Ye Qiu to drive over to pick her up again.
As for the others, like Zhao Ruxue, Zhao Rubing, Shen Yueru, Shen Xingru, Liu Xia, Xiao Hong, and Li Qianqian, Ye Qiu was more familiar with Li Qianqian, Zhao Ruxue, and Zhao Rubing.
However, if he were to invite them, he would definitely invite them all; if not, then none at all.
"Sis, is it too much trouble for you and Mom to cook? If it is, we can forget about it."
"Itâs no trouble at all, just a few dishes. Itâs easy."
"Then Iâll call and invite a few people!"
Ye Qiu picked up his phone and called Li Shen first.
"Where are you guys?"
"Qiu bro, weâre playing around the Qinhuai River."
"Come over for dinner before six tonight."
After calling Li Shen, Ye Qiu also called Li Qianqian, Zhao Ruxue, and Zhao Rubing. As for the others, Ye Qiu didnât bother; it was too much hassle, and to him, it wasnât such a big deal anyway.
"Just these few people?"
Altogether, it was just enough for a table of dishes, which puzzled Ye Xue.
"Just these few. Anyway, itâs just a small matter."
To Ye Weidong and his wife, as well as Ye Xue, Ye Qiu getting the top score in the college entrance exam in Jiangnan Province was a big deal. Now, back in Ye Weidongâs hometown, the whole village, and even the town and county knew about it. Their county had produced a top scorer in Jiangnan Provinceâs college entrance exam.
If the Ye Weidong couple were home now, there would certainly be many town officials coming to congratulate them.
Ye Xue went downstairs and told Ye Weidong, who then asked Chen Fang and Ye Xue to buy more groceries from the nearby market.
After Ye Xue went downstairs, Ye Qiu continued playing "Monster Continent." However, this âAngry Little Lolitaâ that kept calling him big brother, he wasnât sure if she was really a little girl or an old man with a foot fetish. If it was the latter, it would be utterly disgusting.
At half-past five in the afternoon, as Ye Qiu hadnât yet logged out of the game, he already saw Li Qianqian and Han Xiaowan, Zhou Muling arriving.
When Li Qianqian learned that Ye Qiu really had topped the college entrance exam in Jiangnan Province and invited her over for dinner, she couldnât believe it.
But since Ye Qiu had already taken first place in the Jinling City joint exam, she knew that Ye Qiu was very impressive.
"Hey, still playing games?"
After arriving, Li Qianqian hugged Ye Qiu from behind and asked.
On the night of her birthday, after Ye Qiu kissed her and gave her a ride on his bike, she seemed to feel a closer connection to him.
"You came?"
"We came right after class. Where is she?"
After arriving, Li Qianqian thought she would see Liu Lingxiu.
But to her surprise, she didnât see her at all.
Maybe because of Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiuâs relationship, Li Qianqian felt a strong sense of rejection toward her. But finding Liu Lingxiu absent now, she seemed a bit unaccustomed.
"Who are you talking about?"
"Liu Lingxiu!"
"I drove her home this afternoon."
"Great."
Seeing that Liu Lingxiu wasnât around, Li Qianqian was finally happy.
Ye Qiu shook his head, logged out of the game, and went downstairs with the three girls. On the first floor, Chen Fang, Ye Xue, and Ye Weidong were busy in the kitchen.
Chen Fang and Ye Xue had bought more than ten dishes and had been busy since coming back from grocery shopping in the afternoon.
Li Qianqian intended to help in the kitchen, but Chen Fang told her to just sit outside. Li Qianqian now considered herself part of this family rather than a guest.
At 5:40 PM, Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming arrived by taxi, carrying fruits. Li Qianqian had seen them before and knew they were Ye Qiuâs friends from Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School.
Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming were also well aware that Li Qianqian was the daughter of the city mayor.
Around 6 PM, Ye Weidong finished making dinner and came out to ask Ye Qiu: "Is there anyone who hasnât arrived?"
"Zhao Ruxue and her sister. Iâll call them."
Ye Qiu took out his phone to call Zhao Ruxue, who said, "Rubing and I are at the door."
After a while, Ye Qiu saw Zhao Rubingâs Mercedes parked at the entrance.
When Ye Qiu called them, Zhao Ruxue and Zhao Rubing were both surprised to learn that he had actually achieved a perfect score in the college entrance exam and was the only top scorer in Jiangnan Province.
This exceeded their imagination, making them realize Ye Qiuâs intelligence was even higher than they thought.
Now, Zhao Ruxue and Zhao Rubing got out of the car, each carrying a bag of fruit.
"Auntie, sorry to trouble you again," Zhao Ruxue said when she saw Chen Fang coming out to greet them.
Chen Fang still couldnât tell which was Zhao Ruxue and which was Zhao Rubing. However, Zhao Rubing dressed more fashionably than Zhao Ruxue, making it easier to distinguish.
Of course, Ye Qiu could easily tell them apart at a glance.
"Youâre amazing!" Zhao Rubing whispered to Ye Qiu when she saw him.
"Just average," Ye Qiu replied nonchalantly.
Zhao Rubing immediately felt like Ye Qiu was showing off!
Others had worked hard for twelve years and could barely get into a second-tier college, and now Ye Qiu had become the top scorer in Jiangnan Provinceâs college entrance exam. To him, it seemed like no big deal.
