Xu Lai refused: "It's okay, it's just a few steps."

Zhao Qingyun ignored him and walked straight out. Xu Lai followed, thinking, "Are you sure it wasn't me who took you? Why are you walking so fast?"

At the door, Zhao Qingyun stopped and asked, "Are you filming a short video?"

A breeze picked up at night, and Xu Lai's long hair, which had just been washed, was loose over her shoulders. The wind blew her hair up, and Zhao Qingyun had an urge to straighten it for her.

He put his hands in his pockets to keep himself from losing control, and heard Xu Lai reply, "That is indeed the plan."

Zhao Qingyun nodded: "That's a good idea. I'll go check it out when I have time."

Xu Lai felt a little embarrassed after hearing what he said, "These are just random shots. Can you give me some feedback after seeing them?"

“If you’re willing to listen,” Zhao Qingyun said with a smile.

Back in her room, Xu Lai changed into her pajamas, washed her clothes from earlier that day, and then threw them into the washing machine.

After she finished getting ready, Xia Ning called via video. Xu Lai answered, "You timed it perfectly. The call came just as I picked up my phone."

Xia Ning was eating qingtuan when she heard this and said, "I received the things. They are delicious. As expected of Xu Lai, but the mung bean cake is not sweet enough for me."

Xu Lai smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it. I'll make you whatever you want to eat next time. I didn't put too much sugar in the mung bean cake because the elderly can't eat too much sweetness."

Xia Ning suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh right, I bought you a pot of gardenias and some tulip seeds. You know how hard it is for someone like me to grow flowers, so I'm counting on you."

Some say:

Xiao Zhao is constantly flashing his screen, ready to tempt our Lai Lai.
