That evening, they reheated the dishes and boiled some dumplings. After eating, Gu'er and the others said they were heading to the Sun Family's house.
"Why don't you all stay and watch the Spring Festival Gala here? You can head back after it's over. If it gets late, Gu'er, you all can sleep over. There's room for Jiaming and Xiao Zheng."
Chen Fengjiao urged them to stay.
"No, it's okay. We already promised Grandma we'd go over tonight. My dad is coming back tomorrow, so I'll come over again then."
Gu'er didn't want to stay any longer. She had been careful all day not to give Chen Fengjiao a chance to speak with Sun Jiaming alone.
"Alright, then I won't keep you. Be careful on your way. Gu'er, make sure you bundle up, it's cold at night. Jiaming, why don't you come along tomorrow too? You can have a couple of drinks with your Uncle Lin."
Chen Fengjiao invited Sun Jiaming.
"Okay. Don't see us out, Auntie. We're leaving now."
Sun Jiaming nodded in agreement.
