Jiang Zhengkang felt nervous when he saw Mu Qingzhou holding Xiao Shi's hand and walking into the mall.

"Teacher Mu, why did you send Xiao Shiqi here?"

"Is it Xiaoshi who behaves badly?"

"Don't be nervous." Mu Qingzhou explained:

"Xiao Shi's first day of school is today, so he'll be dismissed early."

"Starting tomorrow, he will finish school on time at 7 p.m."

"I was just about to come to Ping'an to buy something, so I drove him along."

Having said this, Mu Qingzhou couldn't help but touch Jiang Xiaoshi's head and praised him: "This child is very talented in medicine. He got a high score in the first test today."

"You guys train him well, and when he grows up, he can directly work in the research institute."

Jiang Zhengkang excitedly hugged Jiang Xiaoshi and kissed him on the cheek: "Xiaoshi is awesome!"

Jiang Xiaoshi smiled shyly: "I will be able to protect my father and my elder sister in the future."

"Your safe and healthy growth is the greatest reward for us."

Jiang Zhengkang rubbed Jiang Xiaoshi's forehead lovingly, then put him down and looked at Mu Qingzhou:

"Teacher Mu, this should be your first time in Ping An. I don't think I have seen you before."

Mu Qingzhou: "Well, I live far away and don't like to go out, so I leave the purchasing work to the staff."

"Then I'll take you around, what do you want to buy?"

"No, you should go about your business. I haven't thought about buying anything yet." Mu Qingzhou politely declined Jiang Zhengkang.

After Jiang Zhengkang took Jiang Xiaoshi away, he started walking around by himself.

On the surface, he was looking at the goods, but in reality he was looking for Jiang Fei's figure.

When Mu Qingzhou saw Jiang Fei introducing whole grain powder to customers, his heart beat faster.

He didn't bother her, but took a bottle of multi-grain powder like the one in Jiang Fei's hand and went to the checkout counter on the first floor to pay.

Su Liuyuan took a look at the grain powder: "1000g gold."

Mu Qingzhou took out five 200g gold bars from his pocket and handed them to Su Liuyuan to weigh.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally chose to ask, "Um...what does your boss like?"

"Like flowers, jewelry, food, and so on."

Before coming here, he heard from Xiaoshi that the employees of Ping An Department Store are all friends and family, and they know each other very well.

Ms. Jiang filled out a personal information form yesterday and wrote that she was "single".

The first time he pursued someone he didn't know what to do, but now he understood that he had to give the person the best he could.

Xiao Shi said Miss Jiang liked gold the most, so he took some to spend.

After all, giving gold bars directly would make him seem insincere and perfunctory.

Still want to give a serious gift.

Su Liuyuan stared at Mu Qingzhou warily: "Why are you asking this?"

"No, it's okay, just asking."

Mu Qingzhou avoided Su Liuyuan's gaze guiltily, not wanting to speak out his true feelings.

"The weight of your gold bar is fine."

"Thank you." Mu Qingzhou picked up the mixed grain flour and left.

Su Liuyuan was even more certain that this person was uneasy.

Otherwise, why would you want to find out what the captain is happy about?

Facts have proved that Su Liuyuan's guess was correct.

Mu Qingzhou would drive Jiang Xiaoshi here every afternoon, and then buy something for him, saying it was on his way.

Su Liuyuan had secretly observed that the first thing Mu Qingzhou did every time he came was to see his captain.

My eyes are almost glued to the captain.

Obviously she is interested in the captain!

But Jiang Zhengkang was completely unaware and even said to Mu Qingzhou enthusiastically that afternoon:

"Teacher Mu, I've been bothering you to take Xiao Shi home every day recently. Please stay for dinner tonight."

Mu Qingzhou nodded: "Then I will help you work together."

"You wait in the lounge, we'll come."

Jiang Zhengkang sent Mu Qingzhou to the lounge and then came out to get the food.

Jiang Fei stopped him and whispered, "I feel like there's something wrong with Mu Qingzhou."

"We don't know him well, why should he help us deliver Xiao Shi every day?"

"There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. You should be careful. Starting tomorrow, you should pick up Xiao Shi in advance."

She didn't believe that there were still kind-hearted people in the apocalypse.

It's just not clear what Mu Qingzhou's purpose is.

If he threatens her and everyone else, the worst that can happen is I'll find a chance to kill him.

After Jiang Fei said this, Jiang Zhengkang also felt something was wrong and slapped his forehead in annoyance.

"I was so stupid that I didn't notice anything was wrong and invited people to stay for dinner."

Jiang Fei: "Just consider it as repaying him for picking up Xiao Shiyu a few days ago."

In order to wait for the four working people to get off work and come over to eat together, the small shopping mall only opens for dinner in the evening.

Jiang Zhengkang and Cao Xiuhong made fried bacon with dried radish, fish-flavored eggplant, boiled pork slices, garlic tofu, steamed spareribs with rice flour, and winter melon and shrimp soup.

The staple food is fragrant white rice.

The food is better than anywhere else in Kyoto.

Mu Qingzhou silently calculated his salary.

I can't afford to feed Miss Jiang like this every day.

Then I'll work two more jobs in the future.

Note that there is a stranger at the table. Xiao Chuxia, Ling Zhaorui, Xiao Li, and the gossip trio surround Jiang Fei curiously.

"Miss, who is he?"

Jiang Fei: "Mu Qingzhou, teacher at Yucai Academy."

Xiao Chuxia and the others knew that Jiang Xiaoshi was going to school, and they all greeted Mu Qingzhou.

Su Liuyuan took the opportunity to run to Lu Yu and said in a low voice: "I can guarantee that he likes our captain."

"He sent Xiao Shi here every day, taking the opportunity to secretly see the captain, and also tried every way to find out what she likes."

Lu Yu's eyes flashed, but without saying a word, he walked over and sat next to Jiang Fei, deliberately whispering to her.

"The Yucai Institute is not far from the rescue center. I have a lot of free time at work. I will pick up Xiaoshi from school later."

Jiang Fei agreed: "Then I will tell my uncle when the time comes, and he won't have to wait any longer."

Lu Yu: "How's your helicopter flying lately?"

"I'm much more skilled than when I started. I've been practicing at home these past few nights after closing the shop. Now I have no problem opening a safe station from Kyoto."

Lu Yu: "If there is anything you don't understand, just ask me."

The two of them were very close to each other and were whispering.

Watching the intimate behavior of Jiang Fei and Lu Yu, Mu Qingzhou's heart sank to the bottom.

It turns out Miss Jiang is not single...

But Xiaoshi said that Miss Jiang didn’t have a boyfriend.

I couldn't help but ask Niu Er beside me in a low voice.

"Is that man Miss Jiang's boyfriend?"

Niu Er: "No, Brother Lu is our boss's old friend."

Hearing this, Mu Qingzhou felt that there was hope again.

He still has a chance!

Not knowing that Niu Er had indirectly exposed his little trick, Lu Yu continued chatting with Jiang Fei.

The next afternoon, he drove to Yucaiyuan to pick up Jiang Xiaoshi after school.

Family members were not allowed to enter the Yucai Institute to pick up their children, so Lu Yu could only wait in the car outside the gate.

After waiting for half a day, Jiang Xiaoshi didn't come out.

Mu Qingzhou took the person away?

Lu Yu got out of the car and was about to take out his ID to go inside to look for Jiang Xiaoshi when he saw Mu Qingzhou coming out.

"Where's Jiang Xiaoshi?"
