"You're right, we both have a strong sense of boundaries," Fang Jinyao nodded with a smile, "She's very strict with me and wants me to always be number one."

"It sounds very stressful. How can anyone always be number one? Yiyi's grades are so good, but she doesn't always get first place." In this matter, Shen Zhiming did not use herself as an example. She was just an ordinary person when it came to studying.

"At first, I thought the same thing, I couldn't breathe," Fang Jinyao sighed. "But my mother lives a carefree life, surrounded by girlfriends trying to get into her bed. Three out of seven times I go to her company, I see young artists who have been kicked out."

This is already a very high probability, after all, not everyone can find a chance to enter her mother's office.

"One day I couldn't stand it anymore, so I went to her office and flipped over the table." Fang Jinyao also found it very funny when talking about her youth. "I wanted to be angry, but the table was too heavy. I flipped it in vain, and my mother called it an impotent rage."

It was also at this time that Fang Qinglan told her about the "unforgettable ex-girlfriend". At that time, she used her "linguistic charm" to inspire Fang Jinyao so much that her blood boiled, and she had to help Fang Qinglan prove that what she said was right.

"Then how did you find out that Auntie just wanted to make you feel good?" Shen Zhiming felt sorry for Fang Jinyao who had been stuffed with cakes by her mother, and at the same time, he imagined the scene where the little Fang Jinyao was inspired to fight hard by the cake drawn by her mother. Besides feeling sorry for her, he also found it a bit funny.

"Because I think she doesn't have such big ambitions, she's more simple-minded." Fang Jinyao has also grown up. As she grows older, she has accumulated a lot of experience in how to be a person and judge people, and the filter she had for her mother has also been broken. "At that time, I probably wanted a child on impulse, without thinking it through. Later... since we already had a child and our family could afford to raise him, we just kept him."

"I remember when I was little, my mother would take me out to dinner with her ex-girlfriend. I would play with her older sister and brag about each other's business achievements. But then... she lost interest, and the contact naturally ended."

Shen Zhiming was listening to the story with great interest: "Does your aunt have a new partner?"

Fang Jinyao shook her head. "She just can't understand how a woman, as time passes, would finally give up on family happiness, quit the workplace, and focus on her family's three meals a day. She personally feels sorry for it, but she is willing to offer her blessings and respect."

Everyone has different choices.

But... that ex-girlfriend is completely different from the person in my mind, so my liking and admiration for her naturally faded.

Fang Qinglan was tired, and the so-called competitive spirit of competing with his children disappeared in an instant.

"As for me, I'm about the same as my mother," Fang Jinyao turned around and looked at Shen Zhiming, who was waiting for her next words attentively. Her eyes softened. She reached out and patted Shen Zhiming on the head, "We're both very boring people."

It is better to say that it is a relationship between guardian and ward than a mother-daughter relationship. Putting aside this relationship, they get along more like friends who know their limits rather than relatives.

"Nonsense, Sister Fang is not boring at all, she's very interesting!" Shen Zhiming retorted loudly, "You are a very interesting person! And very nice!"

Usually when they are together, Fang Jinyao is the one who finds topics to talk about. She can always pick up any topic that is brought up, but she also controls the topic to a level that she can understand, and never makes people feel uncomfortable.

"That's not contradictory. At least my life in the past has always been boring and routine. I used to think that the future would be like this too."

She has no shortage of money, her career is going smoothly without any problems, and her only dream is to become a better agent than her mother.

Fang Jinyao paused for a moment, as if she had made a decision, and took a deep breath. "Until four years ago, I accidentally came across your video."

Shen Zhiming stopped what she was about to say. She had a hunch that what Fang Jinyao would say next would be the focus of today, and what she said before about family matters was all foreshadowing.

Four years ago, she just started her own media.

She couldn't get used to the company's work environment and started to try to shoot videos herself. At first, each video she posted only got a few likes, which was pitiful.

"At that time, you were just a... unknown blogger," Fang Jinyao remembered clearly that she was Shen Zhiming's fourth fan, and it was almost ten days after her that Shen Zhiming welcomed his fifth fan.

The traffic is dismal, and the videos I shot...

How to say it, she is very Shen Zhiming. Fang Jinyao can see that she has put in a lot of effort, but somehow, she always encounters unexpected situations, panics, and is simply and simply clumsy everywhere.

"It was also through your video that I realized that people can live as freely and casually as you do." There is a sense of relaxation that comes from the moment things finally work out.

"But there are many people like me..." Shen Zhiming blushed and muttered softly, "I am just an ordinary careless person..."

"Well, maybe, but I've only met you." Fang Jinyao's eyes softened, "So I only think you're cute."

Shen Zhiming didn't know how to respond for a moment. To her, direct praise was really... at a loss.

Fang Jinyao was not in a hurry. She gave Shen Zhiming some space to calm down and turned to get the bouquet of flowers from the car.

"The flower language of cappuccino is unexpected encounter, and you are my unexpected encounter, a surprise that broke into my life, so I like its flower language very much, just like I like you, Shen Zhiming."

Fang Jinyao, with a serious and earnest attitude, held the bouquet of flowers in both hands and handed it to Shen Zhiming, "If possible, can you give me a chance?"
