"How did you get here? Are you...?"

Seeing the man's nervous expression, Qin Shengyi suddenly had a joking thought, "I had an appointment to meet someone here, so I came to see you!"

Actually, she wanted to see him, so she deliberately arranged to meet Mu Yichen nearby.

She had already communicated with Mu Yichen beforehand, so they went through the motions of a first meeting at the coffee shop, and then tacitly went their separate ways.

Xu Yanshu's expression stiffened, and just as he was wondering what to do, Qin Shengyi burst out laughing.

Suddenly overwhelmed by pent-up frustration, Qin Shengyi's eyes welled up with tears. After sniffing, she spoke.

"Actually, you don't need to take my mother's words to heart. In my eyes, you are the best person in the world, and no one can replace you."

Touched, Xu Yanshu reached out and gently wiped away the girl's tears, soothingly saying, "Okay, I promise you!"

Qin Shengyi nodded, and the next second she stepped forward and hugged the man tightly—
