Just now, Grandma Xiao told Qi Mei to come more often in the future since the couple felt quite lonely living here. Only then did Qi Mei know that Song Bojian didn’t usually live with them. So she subconsciously thought that he wasn’t here today and felt much more at ease and almost forgot about the awkward scene last night. But..

The moment their eyes met, Qi Mei picked up the paper bag beside her and said, “Um, I’m here to return the slippers.”

Song Bojian flicked a glance at her and gave her a nod.

The atmosphere became somehow awkward because of his silence.

Qi Mei pursed her lips and spoke again, “I’ve already cleaned them completely. Thank you and sorry for having troubled you twice. I’d like to invite you to dinner when you have time.” Because the situation was too awkward, she was trying to be polite.

However, after she finished speaking, Song Bojian didn’t say anything for a long time and just stared at her.

Frightened by his stare, Qi Mei made a mental check of what she said just now. She specially mentioned that she put him to trouble twice, never avoiding the fact that she kicked the shoe at him the first time. She was adequately polite and sincere. There shouldn’t be any problem, right?

“Qi Mei?” The corners of Song Bojian’s eyes raised slightly.

She blinked her eyes, wondering if he forgot her name until just now. It must be really hard on him.

“Yes,” she replied good-naturedly.

Song Bojian’s tone carried a hint of playfulness. “You were being so polite that I thought you were someone else rather than my classmate in high school.”

“So, do you want to have dinner with me?” she asked after a few seconds of silence.

He didn’t know what to say.

At this moment, Grandma Xiao walked over with a vase. When she saw Song Bojian, she immediately said, “It’s good that you’re here. Go to the supermarket and buy some glutinous rice flour.”

“What’s that for?” Song Bojian asked.

Grandma Xiao glared at him. “I’m going to make Ludagun for Qi Mei. She always likes the snacks I make. When you were in high school, I didn’t go out to sell Ludagun for a few days since your grandpa was sick. She even came to our house because she had a craving for it.”

Qi Mei was speechless. Actually, she didn’t have to be reminded of such an embarrassing thing. She had almost forgotten about it.

“Grandma Xiao, you don’t have to go through so much trouble. I’m just here to return the slippers. Don’t bother to make the snacks.” Qi Mei declined hurriedly. She had already grown up and was no longer a foodie.

“You haven’t eaten my food for so many years. Let’s see if my cooking skills are still the same as before. Make yourself at home.” Grandma Xiao insisted.

Qi Mei still wanted to refuse.

“Let’s go,” Song Bojian said suddenly.

“Huh?” Qi Mei turned to look at him.

“Let’s go to the supermarket.” Song Bojian looked down at her. “Do you think I will go there alone?”

She didn’t think so, but she didn’t have to eat the snack today! How did things turn out like this?

However, he had already turned around and walked towards the door. And she could only follow him.

When they walked outside, she said helplessly, “I’m sorry to trouble you again.”

He said slowly, “If you really think you put me in trouble..” She looked at him for his sudden pause. “Then eat more later.”

“Huh?”

“Grandma hasn’t done it for a long time. It’s rare for them to have a guest. I want to make her happy,”

“I see.” Qi Mei nodded, but she felt a little strange. Ever since she reunited with Song Bojian, he had always been cold. To her surprise, he was careful and considerate.

The supermarket wasn’t far away, so it didn’t take them too long to walk there. They quickly bought the ingredients they needed. After coming out of the supermarket, she happened to meet an old lady selling gardenia bracelets. The flowers were real and had a pleasant fragrance.

“Buy a bunch of gardenias for your girlfriend. How pretty they are,” The old lady saw the two of them and said with a smile.

Qi Mei didn’t mind buying one, but she quickly explained, “I’m not his girlfriend.”

Song Bojian glanced at her.

“How much is it?” Qi Mei was afraid that the old lady would say something embarrassing again, so she quickly asked for the price.

The price was actually very reasonable. She bent down to choose.

“Handsome boy, come and choose one for your girlfriend. Every flower looks different.” The old lady waved at Song Bojian.

Qi Mei was speechless. So what she said just now was totally ignored, but she had to explain again, “We’re not a couple. We’re both single.”
