Chapter 43: 042: Changling and Xie Shang Gamble on a Drinking Game Chapter 43: 042: Changling and Xie Shang Gamble on a Drinking Game “Why are you wearing glasses now?” He caressed the fingers that had touched Wen Changling, his expression seemed to savor the moment, “You look better without glasses.”

Granny Zhu happened to come out.

“Changling.” Noticing the guy at the door with a shifty look, Granny Zhu glanced at a broom in the corner and asked Wen Changling, “Who is he?”

Wen Changling walked over to Granny Zhu’s side: “A stranger.”

Granny Zhu nudged Wen Changling, signaling her to go inside first, then herself moved a chair and sat down by the gate.

The old lady was of considerable age, with gray hair, a robust body, and sharp eyes, exuding an air of fearlessness.

Zeng Zhili went to a nearby shop, had a bowl of sweet soup, and after sitting and shaking his legs for a while, he left.

The next day.

After work, Wen Changling first stopped by Sister Tao’s fruit store, where Sister Tao cut open a honeydew melon and let Wen Changling take half of it home.

Sister Tao’s youngest son, Aimin, was struggling with a few math problems, and Wen Changling, not in a hurry to go home, sat down to explain them to him. She was very patient when explaining, which Sister Tao admired – unlike herself, who would easily lose her temper and flip the table while “domestically abusing” her child during such lessons.

“Changling.”

“Hmm?”

Sister Tao nodded towards the door: “Do you know the person outside?”

It was Zeng Zhili, he had come again.

Wen Changling calmly redirected her gaze: “I don’t know him.”

“Then why is he always staring at you?”

With a sneaky appearance, he didn’t look like good news.

Sister Tao glared at him.

After explaining the problems to Aimin – oh, right, Aimin’s older brother’s name was Aiguo – Wen Changling got up to head home.

“I’m leaving now.”

Sister Tao cut another bunch of bananas, packed them nicely, and handed them to Wen Changling, cautioning her, “Be careful.”

“Okay.”
