“If you’re both single, you can pair off.” It was not the old lady’s fault for being overly enthusiastic. Both Qi Mei and Yin Ziyuan were exceptionally pleasing to the eye no matter in terms of their height or facial features when they stood together. It was a pity that they were not a couple.

Qi Mei was fine. She was just afraid that Song Bojian would think that she was taking advantage of him. After all, he was the most eligible bachelor now.

Unexpectedly, the man who had been silent all this while suddenly said, “There’s no need to choose. I’ll take them all.”

Qi Mei turned around and looked at him in shock. Well, rich people really had money to burn. However, she did not say anything else when she saw the old lady’s surprised expression.

When they walked back with a bag full of gardenias, Qi Mei could not help but say, “You’re quite kind.” Perhaps this old lady reminded him of the days when Grandma Xiao set up a stall previously. After some people became rich, they involuntarily got snooty, thinking that they were not on the same level as others. She realized that Song Bojian didn’t have this problem. That was why her mother said that he didn’t forget his roots. Although he looked rather indifferent, it was probably because they were not familiar with each other.

When Song Bojian heard this, he suddenly asked, “Did you just say that you’re single?”

She didn’t know if she was oversensitive or if there was something wrong with his tone. She detected a note of sarcasm in his voice as if he was saying, “Oh, you’re single like me?” So, could he have heard what Yun Xiaofang said yesterday?

“What? Are you looking down on single people? Singles rule! I’m happy to be single,” Qi Mei retorted without much confidence.

“No,” Song Bojian replied indifferently.

Looking at the smile on his lips, she couldn’t help sneering to herself. What was there to deny with such a smile? She said he didn’t forget his roots, now she wanted to take that back. Her old classmate despised single people. Hmph, didn’t he realize that he was single too?

Grandma Xiao was very surprised by the gardenias they brought back, but she didn’t say anything when she heard that they bought them from an old lady.

Soon, Grandma Xiao went into the kitchen to make snacks.

Of course, Qi Mei felt awkward sitting there and doing nothing. She went to the kitchen and said, “Grandma Xiao, let me help you.”

“No, take a seat. I’ll be done soon.” Grandma Xiao worked as quickly as before.

Qi Mei didn’t leave and busied herself in helping Grandma Xiao.

Grandma Xiao smiled and said, “You don’t know how to do this. Just go and chat with Xiao Jian.”

They almost fell out with each other just now, so she’d better give up chatting with Song Bojian.

“I’ll just watch you do it. Are you still worried that I’ll steal your skills..” Qi Mei chuckled and teased.

“If you want to learn, I’ll teach you.” Grandma Xiao said happily and glanced outside the kitchen door. Seeing that Song Bojian had gone out to answer the phone, she quickly lowered her voice and said, “Qi Mei, can I ask you for a favor?”

“Yes, please say it. I’ll do anything I can to help.” Qi Mei immediately replied.

Grandma Xiao was a little embarrassed. “You know we just moved back here and don’t know many people. Xiao Jian is busy with his work all day long and barely interacts with girls. Since you’re classmates and are about the same age, if you know some good girls, can you introduce them to him?”

“Does Song Bojian still need a blind date?” Qi Mei was shocked.

Grandma Xiao sighed slightly. “Yeah. He only thinks about his work. He’s stuck in the office.”

This was the first time that Qi Mei was asked to be a matchmaker. “I think he probably wants to put his work first and doesn’t want to find a girlfriend for the time being. He can meet so many people at work, not to mention outstanding girls.”

“That’s what I said to him before. If you meet a suitable girl, you can bring her back and introduce her to me. We are quite open and reasonable. But he said that he wouldn’t get involved with girls he met at work. It’s easy..”

“To mix business with private affairs?” Qi Mei chimed in.

“Yes!” Grandma Xiao smiled bitterly. “But he should find a girlfriend and get married at his age. We are getting old. I really don’t know how long we can wait.”

“Grandma, don’t worry. Fate is never certain.” Qi Mei comforted her. “Perhaps, he will suddenly meet a girl he likes in a few days and get married soon. I reckon that when the time comes, the one who won’t be able to accept it will still be you.”
