Upon entering the elevator, Ouyang Qi suddenly hugged Tang Jing.

“Thank you for being so respectful to my mom. Thank you so much.” The man sounded rather emotional.

Smiling, Tang Jing returned the hug. “Mrs. Ouyang is an elder. It's only right for me to respect her. Most importantly, she's your mother, as well as Ouyang Qing's. Of course, I have to respect her.”

While they hugged each other, the elevator came to a stop and opened its doors to let an elderly woman in. The duo did not part until the woman rolled her eyes at them.

Nevertheless, Ouyang Qi still reached out and wrapped an arm around Tang Jing's waist. After failing to peel his hands away several times, she had no choice but to let him hug her.

Soon, they arrived at a bar in the neighborhood and sat across from each other.

Tang Jing was beginning to realize Ouyang Qi was looking at her differently. There was unmistakable affection in his gaze.

“Tang Jing, thank you so much. Thank you for everything you've done for me.” Ouyang Qi thanked her again.

In response, she smacked him gently. “There you go again. How many times are you going to thank me? If you're truly thankful, do something more practical.”

“How about I devote myself to you?” he suggested with a smile.

“I don't want that.” Tang Jing shook her head.

“Why? Am I not good enough?”

“That's not it. It's just that you're well-known for fooling around. I heard you've messed around with countless women, and your relationships never last for more than three months. I don't want to be dumped after dating you for three months,” she explained, pretending to be angry.

“That's because I never found my true love back then. Things are different now. If I have to put a time limit to our relationship, I want it to be thirty thousand years.”
