"I still can’t get over that man from before. Even though he made sad this ti, all I want is to be with him forever. I’m really sorry."
Tong Ze raised his hand to gently rub Li Manman’s head, "It’s okay. If he ever bullies you and you don’t want to be with him anymore, rember to co find ."
"Thank you."
"I’m going to head out now. Please don’t distance yourself from just because I confessed my feelings to you. At least we’re still old classmates."
Li Manman smiled softly and nodded, "I won’t intentionally distance myself from you. Don’t worry."
Tong Ze stood up from the sofa, greeted Han Xi and Chu Ci, and then left.
After seeing Tong Ze off, Li Manman sat listlessly at the dining table, not taking a bite of the sandwich in her hand.
"Why aren’t you eating?"
Han Xi frowned at Li Manman, genuinely worried about her state.
"Just now, when Tong Ze confessed to outside, Feng Yi saw too. But he didn’t say a word and just drove off."
Chu Ci took a sip of the milk on the dining table, "I bet Feng Yi is pretty upset."
"What does he have to be upset about? I didn’t agree."
"I think you two should sit down and talk it out. If this keeps going, misunderstandings are bound to happen."
Han Xi nodded in agreent, "I think Chu Ci is right. Cold wars don’t solve anything."
"Let things happen naturally. Maybe he doesn’t care about that much."
Li Manman was in no mood to eat, her heart felt heavy and uncomfortable. She put down the sandwich in her hand and went upstairs.
Chu Ci sighed helplessly, "These two really are worrying."
"They’re both angry right now. Maybe after calming down, they’ll reconcile."
"Let’s hope so."
After finishing breakfast, Han Xi hurried off to work. Chu Ci stayed with Li Manman until the afternoon before heading ho.

In the afternoon, Lu Jinghan was in the office reviewing the company’s annual report when his phone rang on the table. He closed the docunt in his hand, picked up the phone, and pressed the answer button.
"Uncle Su, what made you think of calling ?"
Lu Jinghan held the phone in one hand while playing with the cigarette pack on the table with the other.
"I heard from Luo Luo that it was thanks to you and your wife that we managed to successfully eradicate the *traffickers this ti. So I wanted to invite you and your wife to co over for dinner, and also call along Feng Yi and Fu Bin, those two little rascals. You all bring your families along, it’s been a long ti since we all sat together to chat."
The Uncle Su Lu Jinghan referred to was Su Luo’s father, who was a commander in the army back in the day, now retired, spending his days at ho raising birds and growing flowers.
"I’ll head over with Fu Bin and the others tonight. My wife hasn’t been feeling well lately."
Lu Jinghan was worried Han Xi might feel uncomfortable seeing Su Luo, so he didn’t want her to go.
"It’s just a dinner gathering; all of you must co tonight."
Su Zhenyuan cheerfully teased the bird in the cage, his booming voice carrying an indisputable tone.
The old commander was used to giving orders in the army, and even now he still treats them like his soldiers, speaking as if issuing a command.
Lu Jinghan raised his hand to pinch his brow, unable to refuse further, he could only agree.
Lu Jinghan took a cigarette from the pack, turned his head and lit it, thought for a few seconds, and then dialed Han Xi’s phone number.
