Chen Niansheng then said to Li Ke, "Is that so? Okay, don't stay outside for too long, come back early."

Li Ke nodded: "Okay."

Li Zhenzhen watched Li Ke walk over, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

In the living room, Grandpa Chen was being helped by Xiao Zheng to his room. Grandma Chen and Chen Xian were sitting together, and Aunt Chen was sitting next to them. When they saw Chen Zhizhi coming downstairs, the three of them stopped what they were saying and looked over.

Grandma Chen asked, "Are you going on a date with Zuo Hui? Zhizhi, when are you going to bring him back so Grandma can meet him? Also, did he tell you when he's going to meet his parents?"

Chen Zhizhi felt a little annoyed by her grandmother's words. What was Zuo Hui's identity? What was her identity? Thinking of her grandparents' vulgarity, Chen Zhizhi just wanted to never let Zuo Hui see that she had such grandparents.

“Grandma, I’ve only known him for a couple of days, and our relationship isn’t stable yet. How can we meet each other’s parents so soon? Besides, Zuo Hui doesn’t like being tied down by family. He prefers a free and easy relationship. If I pressure him, he might get upset and stop seeing me. You have to let me take it slow. We’re both still young, we have plenty of time, there’s no rush to talk about marriage,” Chen Zhizhi said to her grandmother.

Grandma Chen was somewhat displeased upon hearing this: "How can you not be anxious? What if he runs away if you don't settle things sooner? This is a prince, and if you marry him you will be the crown princess. How can you not be anxious?"

Chen Zhizhi was in a hurry to leave and didn't want to talk. She met Chen Xian's smiling face and said coquettishly, "Brother, please explain to Grandma that my time is almost up, so I'm leaving first."

After saying that, she grabbed Li Ke and walked away quickly.

"Why are you taking that ugly girl with you? Be careful on the road. You need to be more responsible. You're twenty-five years old, not young anymore. You need to hurry up!" Grandma Chen stood up and shouted at Chen Zhizhi's back.

Hearing these words, Chen Zhizhi dared not and did not want Zuo Hui to see her grandmother.

Li Ke arrived at the nearest security post in the villa area in Chen Zhizhi's car, and sat in a small hall outside the security office, playing on his phone while waiting for his takeout.

She loaded the spare new large trash can from the Chen family's tool shed onto Chen Zhizhi's car, intending to use it as a prop to carry takeout orders later.

Chen Zhizhi watched Li Ke's actions with a look of forced acceptance. Meanwhile, Zhang Tao and his wife left the hospital at noon. After returning home, the two, despite feeling unwell, packed a few things and prepared to leave for their empty house in the city for a couple of days.

As Zhang Tao packed his things, Aunt Mei cried. She had been running this supermarket for over 20 years, growing it from a small window to over 200 square meters with four storefronts. She had poured so much effort into it.

Overnight, everything was gone. Not only that, the couple didn't dare to utter a sound. Thinking of this, Aunt Mei wished she could tear her husband to pieces!

Thinking of the safe that was no longer under the bed, Aunt Mei felt another wave of palpitations and tightness in her chest. She felt like there was something wrong with her heart. Could the fright last night have made her sick?
