My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 423 - 018: I agreed_2

"Yeah! I’m so happy, I don’t even feel tired." Ru Junlan, hearing the dynamic sounds of a game over the phone, curiously asked, "Are you playing a game outside? Why do I feel like I can hear game sounds?"

Ye Lingran glanced at the game screen. Although the game was paused, the music hadn’t stopped, making her slightly embarrassed as she smiled and stole a glance at Yun Qi beside her. She saw Yun Qi also looking at her, making her shyly turn her head, whispering, "Well... Mom, I’m at... Yun Qi’s place! I’ll be back on time later."

"You’re with Yun Qi?" Ru Junlan chuckled warmly when she heard that, "Is he by your side?"

"He is... Mom, what are you planning?" Ye Lingran replied, then felt something was amiss, asking guardedly in return.

"What can I do? Speaking of which, you’ve been dating Yun Qi for so long, and we haven’t properly invited him to our house for a meal! Your dad and I have been busy, so we didn’t have time. The last time we met was also a rushed meeting at the hospital. Does he have time tonight? If he does, bring him over for dinner tonight! Your grandma’s here today, and she’s brought him up multiple times."

"I..." Ye Lingran was at a loss for words for a moment, subconsciously looking at him with a bit of difficulty.

Receiving her rather distressed look, Yun Qi softly asked, "What’s wrong?"

Ru Junlan overheard Yun Qi’s question on the phone and chuckled again. "How about this, Ranran, pass the phone to him. Let me talk to him. If he’s really busy, I won’t force him."

Ye Lingran was left speechless. Meeting his curious gaze, she silently took the phone from her ear and handed it to him, signaling him to take it.

Yun Qi looked at the phone she handed over; the call was still ongoing on the screen. Slightly surprised, he widened his eyes and pointed to himself. Seeing this, Ye Lingran silently nodded, "My mom wants you to take the call."

Seeing her helpless expression, Yun Qi couldn’t help but smile. Taking the phone, he placed it to his ear and warmly greeted, "Auntie."

With one hand supporting her chin, Ye Lingran watched him talk on the phone, feeling a bit curious about what her mom would say to him. But she couldn’t hear the voice from the other side of the phone; she just saw him smiling with his eyes and eyebrows, nodding gently, "Auntie, you’re too kind. I should have taken the initiative to visit you."

"Alright, see you tonight then."

Once he finished responding, he hung up the phone. Ye Lingran looked at him in confusion, "What did my mom say to you?"

"Auntie invited me to have dinner with you tonight."

"And then?"

"I agreed." Yun Qi smiled, glancing up to check the time, "Let’s wrap up the game for today! Next time you want to play, just come over anytime. I think it’s about time; wait for me here. I’ll go back to my room to change clothes, and then we can leave together."

"It’s not even five o’clock now, dinner at my place won’t start until at least after six-thirty."

"It’s my first time visiting your house, I shouldn’t go empty-handed! Let’s go to the nearby mall for a bit!"

"Uh... It actually doesn’t need to be that complicated."

"When you went to see my mom last time, how did you handle it?"

"..."

Again lost for words, Ye Lingran just met Yun Qi’s slightly raised eyebrows with a faint smile, "How about... coming over to help me pick out an outfit? See what’s appropriate to wear? For the first visit, it should be a bit formal, right?" Actually, Yun Qi wasn’t quite sure about these things, and truth be told, he didn’t know much about her family’s situation. All he knew was her grandmother’s medical condition and her parents working in the legal field, nothing beyond that.

"Me?" Ye Lingran looked at him dumbfoundedly, incredulously pointing to herself.

"Come on!" Yun Qi smiled, took her hand, and led her toward the direction of the walk-in closet. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Arriving at the closet door, Ye Lingran looked around. His walk-in closet was quite large, divided into three sections: one area specifically for his shoes, another for clothing—arranged by color—and another for his accessory area, including watches, ties, belts, cufflinks, etc., an array as dazzling as a high-end store.

In the end, Ye Lingran helped him choose a teal gray suit, thinking it formal without being overly stiff, with a touch of approachability.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, go change! I’ll wait for you outside." Ye Lingran nodded, then left the closet and headed to the living room.
