Lin Xu had not met Shen Qingtang many times before, but when she saw the girl's familiar face, she still recognized her.

Hearing her name, the girl was stunned for a moment, "Do you know me?"

Lin Xu only knew the grown-up Shen Qingtang, so of course he didn’t know him now.

Lin Xu's eyes drifted, and he stammered for a long time without being able to say anything, "I, I'm your grandma's friend, she showed me your photo."

Lin Xu had heard Shen Qingtang mention her grandmother before, her eyes lit up and she found an excuse.

Grandma's friend?

Shen Qingtang looked her up and down with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

Her grandmother is over 80 years old, how could she have such a young friend?

"Ah, is it the friend grandma met in the hospital before?" Shen Qingtang remembered something and suddenly realized.

I heard my grandmother mention before that when she went to the hospital for treatment, she didn’t know how to use the self-service machine to pay the bill, and it was her sister who taught her.

I just didn’t expect this sister to be so beautiful.

"Yes." Lin Xu admitted with a smile, and secretly apologized to the friend who was impersonated.

"I'm really sorry. My son didn't look at the road and hit you. Are you really hurt?" Lin Xu said, and pulled Ji Zeqiu over to apologize.

Not only did he walk without looking at the road, but the person he bumped into was the granddaughter of his mother's friend. Ji Zeqiu's anger instantly subsided and he whispered "I'm sorry".

"It doesn't matter. In fact, I didn't look at the road just now." Shen Qingtang waved his hand.

"It's a rare opportunity for us to meet. How about we have dinner together later?" Lin Xu still had some good feelings towards her.

At first, she thought Shen Qingtang would be as love-minded as her daughter, but later he decisively gave up Ji Zeqiu and went abroad to pursue his career, which she admired very much.

She still remembered that Shen Qingtang really made a name for himself abroad, and his career flourished after returning to China, and his fame was no less than Ji Zeqiu's.

Shen Qingtang was a little hesitant when he heard her invitation, "I have to go back and boil medicine for grandma..."

"Is that so? Then go back quickly and don't let grandma wait anxiously." Lin Xu said, and then glanced at Ji Zeqiu, "Go and see her off quickly."

Ji Zeqiu wanted to refuse, but when he thought about the person he had just bumped into, he nodded his head abruptly.

Shen Qingtang suddenly panicked, "No, no, no, no need to send me off, I can go out by myself..."

However, Ji Zeqiu ignored her refusal, took the bag from her hand, and walked directly out of the mall, "Let's go."

Seeing him walking farther and farther away with his things, Shen Qingtang hesitated for a moment, then trotted after him.

Shen Qingtang opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know his name, "Um... I'll get it myself."

"It's okay, it's not serious." Ji Zeqiu said.

When he goes out with his mother, he is used to carrying things for her. And his mother also said that girls should not be the only ones carrying things when shopping.

Shen Qingtang followed him helplessly, and then saw him hailing a taxi for himself on the roadside.

Looking at the car door he opened for her, she seemed to want to say something but hesitated. After a moment, she decided to get in the car.

When getting in the car, Ji Zeqiu was quite gentlemanly and used his hand to block the door above his head to prevent her from hitting her head.

Seeing his considerate gesture, Shen Qingtang's cheeks flushed and she whispered "thank you".

Even after the car had driven a long distance, Shen Qingtang's cheeks were still burning hot.

She patted her cheeks with both hands, took a look at the balance on her phone, and calmed down instantly.

She originally wanted to save the taxi fare and walk home, so that she could save more money to buy medicine for her grandmother.

As a result, seeing how eagerly the boy helped her get a taxi, she couldn't bring herself to say no.

Forget it.

She'd better eat less breakfast tomorrow.

Thinking so, Shen Qingtang took out his cell phone to pay when getting off the car.

"The handsome young man has already paid, so he doesn't need to pay." said the driver.

Shen Qingtang was stunned for a moment, and the blush that had just disappeared gradually reappeared.

……

Although the picnic items were not bought completely, Lin Xu was attracted by the clothes and bags in the store and bought a lot of clothes.

The two sons were each carrying two large bags. As soon as they entered the door, they handed the bags to the servants to take them upstairs, and then lay on the sofa with a look of despair.

"I don't want to go out for the next two days." Ji Zeqiu breathed lightly, looking very tired.

"When you were little, you always pestered me to take you out. But now that you've grown up, you get tired after only accompanying me out for half a day." Lin Xu wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes and acted like he was hurt.

Ji Zeqiu was startled, and suddenly stood up from the sofa, and said helplessly: "That's not what I meant, I didn't say I was tired."

Ji Tingyang pushed Ji Zeqiu aside, frowned and glanced at him, as if he was displeased that he had made his mother sad.

He walked to Lin Xu and comforted her nervously, "I don't feel tired. You can call me anytime if you want to go out."

Ji Zeqiu also nodded repeatedly, almost raising his hand to swear anxiously, "Me too, I'll go out with you every day!"

"Okay, then it's settled. You two have to accompany me to go shopping this week." A cunning gleam flashed across Lin Xu's eyes, and there was no trace of sadness from before.

"I was so worried about you, how could you pretend to cry and lie to me!" Ji Zeqiu condemned angrily.

"This is called all is fair in war. I'm giving you some experience. Next time you see a girl crying outside, don't be fooled." Lin Xu winked at him and went upstairs with a smile.

Ji Zeqiu looked at Ji Tingyang angrily, "Brother, why don't you tell me about mother?"

Ji Tingyang said calmly, "There's nothing wrong with accompanying my mother for a walk."

"Well, I am too, but..." Ji Zeqiu immediately followed suit, but before he could finish his words, he saw Ji Tingyang walking straight to the door. "Brother, where are you going?"

"Lan Yue hasn't come back yet, I'll go check on her." Ji Tingyang said.

Children over nine years old are full of energy. They cannot stay at home every day and have to run outside.

I met a kid in the villa area a few days ago, and now we go out to play together every day.

Once, I played outside until dark and didn’t come back, so my father punished me by not letting me eat dinner. As a result, I was so hungry that night that I ran to his room crying for food, and my father gave me a headache.

Now it was getting dark, and Ji Tingyang planned to take his sister home before his father got angry.

He came to the small park in the villa area and saw from afar Ji Lanyue stepping on the shoulders of a little boy and trying hard to climb up the tree.

Before he opened his mouth, Ji Lanyue's sharp eyes saw him first and she was startled.

"Zhao Jiayan, put me down quickly, my brother is here!"
