When she was a child, she used to play wildly in her neighborhood, visit her neighbors, and stay for meals. That was perfectly normal.

There aren't that many rules.

They keep sending her gifts, as if she really wants something from Qiqi's family.

Jiang Tong resolutely refused to accept it this time.

The old butler looked troubled and could only resort to his old excuse, "Well, we're all just working people, if you don't accept it, we won't be able to explain ourselves..."

Jiang Tong said, "Then please take it back first, and I'll tell Mr. Zhou."

The old butler snapped to attention and winked at the two young men, signaling them to put down their things and leave first, after which he would follow them away. "We'll put those things down for you first, and you can tell our young master later."

After saying that, they slipped away.

Jiang Tong called out to them while on the phone, "Hey, hey, don't go yet!"

They had already disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Tong sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.

The call was answered quickly, and the other party's voice slowly came through, "Hello."

Jiang Tong sighed and said, "Hello Mr. Zhou, it's like this."

She tidied up her script.

She said, "Perhaps you have some misunderstanding?! I invited Qiqi to my house for dinner simply because I like him. He and Hanhan also get along very well. This is just a common interaction between neighbors. You don't need to keep sending me things."

Moreover, it's one thing to give her food and the same medicinal herbs as before, but now they're also giving her designer bags and jewelry, which is definitely going too far for her.

Zhou Yuansheng's voice remained calm on the other end of the phone, but he was also a little puzzled. She had accepted the food he had sent before, so why did she refuse the more expensive bags and jewelry he sent today?

After a moment of confusion, Zhou Yuansheng remembered that they were both single parents and understood. He then said in an unquestionable tone, "I think you've misunderstood, Ms. Jiang. I'm just giving you these as a token of my gratitude. You don't need to feel burdened. These are nothing to me."

It's not even a drop in the ocean, just some small odds and ends. If he were pursuing someone, he would naturally give more than just these kinds of things.

Jiang Tong was afraid that Zhou Yuansheng would think she was trying to curry favor with Qi Qi. Zhou Yuansheng, on the other hand, mistakenly thought that the bags and jewelry he gave Jiang Tong made her think he was flirting with her. Their thought processes were completely different.
