Shen Mianmian and Yang Xiaoxi were even more puzzled.

Old Xu hurriedly explained, “I was sent by the old gentleman to pick you up. Don’t worry, I’m not a bad person. He said he had arranged to have lunch with you and asked to co get you.”

Hearing this, Shen Mianmian and Yang Xiaoxi were finally certain that the man had been sent by the elderly gentleman.

But wasn’t the old gentleman so poor that he couldn’t even afford a al? What was with the car?

“Mianmian, what in the world is going on?” Yang Xiaoxi felt that Shen Mianmian was very clever. If she couldn’t figure sothing out, Shen Mianmian surely could.

Shen Mianmian pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, “I don’t know either.”

Old Xu chuckled, “I can’t explain it all right now, but you’ll understand once you et the old gentleman.”

“Mianmian, should we go?” Yang Xiaoxi couldn’t make up her mind. What if this turned out to be a bad person?

“Mm-hmm.” Shen Mianmian nodded her head. “That day, the old gentleman said he would send soone to pick us up. It must be this uncle, right?”

Seeing that they believed his words, Old Xu imdiately helped open the car door. Yang Xiaoxi, looking at the things in her hands, was conflicted again, “Mianmian, should we still bring these things to the old gentleman?”

His family can afford a car now, so they probably wouldn’t care about these little things, right?

Shen Mianmian nodded her head, “Since we bought them already, let’s bring them along!”

However, she didn’t bring everything with her. By now, she was almost certain that the old gentleman lacked nothing to eat, so there was no need to bring food items like vegetables, at, and noodles.

It wouldn’t be good to go empty-handed, but the fruit could still be brought.

After sending the groceries back to the room, she got into the car.

Old Xu noticed all this, admiration filling his eyes. No wonder the old gentleman liked Shen Mianmian. What elder wouldn’t like such a considerate girl?

Xiaonan liked her, and the old gentleman liked her too. This seed to be a match made in heaven.

The two sat in the backseat while Old Xu drove in the front. Shen Mianmian and Yang Xiaoxi had been in Beijing for a while and were quite familiar with it now.

Having visited the elderly gentleman’s neighborhood before, Yang Xiaoxi noticed that the route they were taking this ti was different from before.

“Mianmian, he’s not a swindler, is he? I distinctly rember that the old gentleman didn’t use to live here,” Yang Xiaoxi said with so concern.

Shen Mianmian reassured her, “He shouldn’t be. The old gentleman’s identity may be different from what we thought, and the place he lives in is probably not the sa as the one he took us to before.”

If she wasn’t mistaken, the old gentleman might not be a poor old man but rather soone of status in Beijing.

But, what was his purpose in getting close to them?

A hunch had ford in her mind, yet she wasn’t entirely certain.

“Is the old gentleman a wealthy man?” Yang Xiaoxi’s eyes widened, sowhat displeased, “That old man, to think, he’s so rich and yet deceives us two students who ca from out of town. Isn’t he too calculating?”

Hearing these words, the corner of Shen Mianmian’s mouth twitched. Old Xu, who was driving, and Shen Mianmian had the sa expression—Yang Xiaoxi’s thought process was indeed different from ordinary people’s.

After driving for over twenty minutes, they quickly arrived at a residential area. The façade of the complex didn’t look very luxurious, and it seed sowhat dated, but once inside it beca evident that every house was detached with a decent-sized plot.

In a place like Beijing, owning such a house was not sothing that could be achieved with just money.
