Qi Mei bit her lip because she didn’t dare to tell the truth. She had lost the last advantage her mother thought she had. No, she was even worse off than Song Bojian. After all, Song Bojian was single. Although he had never been in a relationship, at least he had never been cheated on! Thinking of this, Qi Mei felt even more heartbroken.

The next morning.

“Mom, my gentle and kind mom, please come with me. Please!” Qi Mei begged at home. The slippers Song Bojian gave her last night had been washed and dried. Qi Mei was ready to return them to him, but Yun Xiaofang felt that it was so embarrassing yesterday that no matter what Qi Mei said, she was determined not to go.

“You’re worse than Wu Xiangdai.” Qi Mei snorted coldly. At the very least, when she kicked her shoe away, Wu Xiangdai resolutely took it back. Wasn’t that more embarrassing than yesterday? She was so lucky to have a girlfriend like Wu Xiangdai.

“Then ask Wu Xiangdai to go with you. Anyway, I’m not going.” Yun Xiaofang sat on the sofa and continued to watch her favorite campy drama without moving her butt. She refused to go with Qi Mei. She was a math teacher after all. How embarrassing would that be?

Qi Mei really had no choice. She knew that it was useless to ask her mother for help, so she went to the door and changed her shoes.

Yun Xiaofang did not forget to remind her, “Remember to wear sturdy shoes. Make sure they won’t be broken this time, or it’ll be even more awkward. I will be too embarrassed to go out in the future.”

Qi Mei was speechless. This time, she learned her lesson and changed into a pair of sports shoes, the shoelaces tied tightly. She did not believe that there would be any mistakes this time. When she opened the door, Yun Xiaofang shouted again, “You can’t go return things to others with empty hands. Buy some gifts.”

“Oh, I know,” Qi Mei replied. However, after she left, she was in a dilemma because she really didn’t know what to buy for Song Bojian. Logically speaking, she should thank him for bringing her slippers. But she wanted to buy something for Grandma Xiao more than for Song Bojian.

After thinking for a while, she went to the flower shop and asked the shop owner to pack a bouquet of carnations and bought another fruit basket. Then, she walked towards that Western-style house. She remembered that when they got home last night, Yun Xiaofang sighed for a long time. Grandma Xiao’s family had a very difficult life back then. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have set up a stall at the school gate to sell snacks. However, who would have thought that they would live in such a villa with an astronomical price a few years later?

Of course, Yun Xiaofang was just being emotional, but she was also happy for them. After all, life must go on.

Qi Mei rang the doorbell, and Grandma Xiao came out to open the door personally. She happily welcomed Qi Mei into the house.

Qi Mei handed over the bouquet and fruit basket to her. “Why did you buy so many things?”

“These are the flowers I bought for you. They look so pretty.” Qi Mei chuckled.

Grandma Xiao paused for a moment, feeling happy but also a little embarrassed. “Actually, this is the first time someone has given me flowers. Hurry up and find a vase for me,” Grandma Xiao said as she instructed Grandpa Song.

Grandpa Song was a silent old man. He was reading the newspaper with his presbyopic glasses when he heard this. Then he stood up slowly and went to look for a vase.

They looked like a loving and compatible couple.

In the study room on the second floor.

Song Bojian was having a video conference, attentively listening to the person in the video, but he heard the voice from downstairs through a crack in the door. It was a clear and pleasant girl’s voice.. In a trance, he felt like being brought back to ten years ago when he was a student in high school.

“Mr. Song? Mr. Song!” A subordinate’s voice came from the computer.

“This price is too expensive. We’ll discuss it again.” Song Bojian looked at the camera.

The company was in contact with another autonomous-driving company, but they asked for a very high price whether for financing or acquisition. Therefore, the negotiations between the two sides were in a deadlock.

“That’s all for today.” The voice coming from downstairs tugged at Song Bojian’s heartstrings. This was the first time that he couldn’t focus on work.

Before anyone could react, Song Bojian’s face had already disappeared from the screen. Everyone in the meeting room looked at each other and muttered. Would a workaholic like Mr. Song get off early?

Qi Mei was chatting with Grandma Xiao downstairs. She was a likable girl with a delightful appearance in the elders’ eyes, and she was very patient when chatting with the elderly. Therefore, Grandma Xiao kept talking with Qi Mei non-stop, unable to hide her feelings for Qi Mei.

When Song Bojian showed up on the staircase, Qi Mei, who was drinking water, almost choked.
