Dinner Date

As Li Chen arrived home, he was greeted by Sun Lixia and Li Yanyan, both waiting with an air of concern. Li Yanyan wasted no time, immediately requesting his presence. "You're finally here. Sit, we need to talk," she urged.

Li Chen, greeting Yanyan with a familiar "Hey, Aunt Yanyan," settled into a seat, ready to listen. Sun Lixia joined in, expressing their shared worry about his safety. Yanyan, after acknowledging their concerns, laid out a detailed plan designed to ensure Li Chen's security. His response was swift, "If it puts your minds at ease, we can follow this plan."

Sun Lixia, though still fretful, acknowledged, "I'm worried about you." Li Chen reassured her, "I understand, Mom, but if the plan is ready, we can act on it tomorrow." Yanyan then diverted the conversation, mentioning an engagement invitation for the following day.
