Fang Ke took leave in the afternoon, and also took leave to go to the hospital tomorrow. Her job is relatively easy and she has weekends off, so she can rest for three and a half days in a row.

"Let's go back to our room and sleep for an hour first. Then I'll take you to the newspaper office to see my aunt, and then I'll take you around Beijing, to see all the sights." Fang put away the photo album and asked Qiao Qiqi for her opinion.

Qiao Qiqi naturally had no objections.

An hour later, Qiao Qiqi woke up Xin Xin, and the three of them went out.

Because the road was a bit far, the three of them took two rickshaws to the newspaper office.

After getting out of the car, Fang Ke took Xin Xin's hand and went upstairs with ease. As soon as she entered the office, a young girl greeted her, "Ms. Fang, it's been a long time since you've come to see the editor-in-chief."

"Yes, I was sent on a business trip." Fang Ke greeted everyone with a smile before asking, "Is my aunt inside?"

"Yes, I'm here. The editor-in-chief just came back from dinner."

"Okay, I'll go find my aunt first, and we'll talk when I come out." Fang Ke immediately led Xin Xin towards the innermost small office.

Qiao Qiqi appeared behind the two, immediately attracting the attention of several young people.

Everyone was visibly stunned when they saw the face that looked so much like the editor-in-chief.

Someone quickly looked at Fang Ke and asked, "Ms. Fang, is this a relative of yours? She looks just like our editor-in-chief!"

Fang Ke glanced at Qiao Qiqi and, seeing that the others also thought it was true, deliberately didn't mention her relationship with Qiao Qiqi, and replied with a smile, "Yes, she is indeed a relative of our family."

Upon reaching the door, Fang Ke suddenly had a bright idea. She untied the silk scarf from her neck and said, "Qiqi, why don't you wait outside for a bit? Use this scarf to cover your eyes and below. I'll call you in later, and then you can go in."

Qiao Qiqi's eyes flashed, and she instantly understood Fang Ke's meaning.

Realizing that she was just teasing her aunt, she cooperated and took the scarf.

Fang Ke watched as she wrapped the scarf around her neck before smilingly pushing open the office door and walking in.

Fang Jingru looked up when she heard the voice, revealing a face that resembled Qiao Qiqi by six or seven points. She was not surprised at all when she saw that it was Fang Ke.

"You're back? Why are you so tanned?"

Fang Ke was expecting praise, but when she saw that she was being criticized right away, she immediately pouted and said, "Can't you just say something to praise me? You're just insulting me right away."

Fang Jingru truly loved this niece, after all, she was the child she had raised herself since she was a child, not her biological daughter but more like one.

Seeing that Fang Ke was unhappy, she changed her words and said, "You look stronger and healthier. How was your trip to the North?"

Upon hearing the story, Fang Ke immediately plopped down in a chair and succinctly summarized it in one word: "Tired!"

Fang Jingru laughed, "I warned you before that this journey would be tough, but you still insisted on going. Even though the leader was choosing someone else, you volunteered. You gave up a perfectly good office job to go to the countryside to experience life. Now you know how tough it is?"

Speaking of this, Fang Ke actually regretted it when she first went to the countryside, but she didn't feel that way later on.

Especially when she thought about the people she brought back, she felt that all the hardships she had endured were completely insignificant.

"Although life in the countryside is tough, the people there are incredibly kind. They are simple and honest, and the villagers are very welcoming to us."

Recalling every moment of the journey, Fang Ke was still deeply moved.

"I didn't realize how hard life was in the countryside until I went there. They have to cook every day, they rarely get to eat meat, and some people can only eat one meal a day, they are so hungry that they are skin and bones."

Fang Jingru listened patiently to Fang Ke's summary and nodded approvingly, "Good, you've learned to understand the suffering of the masses. Not bad, this trip wasn't in vain."

"That's right!" Fang Ke proudly raised her head, then suddenly remembered the person she had left outside the door, and quickly stood up from her chair.

"Auntie, I came here to introduce you to a friend. You'll be very surprised when you meet her."

Fang Jingru raised an eyebrow, noticing that she had brought people with her and had left them outside for so long...

Fang Ke had already opened the door and pulled Qiao Qiqi inside. "Auntie, who does she look like?"

Fang pushed Qiao Qiqi forward, exposing her completely to Fang Jingru.

When Fang Jingru saw Qiao Qiqi's eyes, she suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with shock!

Fang Ke peeked out from behind Qiao Qiqi. She had expected her aunt to be shocked, but she hadn't expected her aunt to be this shocked!

The reason she asked Qiao Qiqi to cover the area below her eyes was because the most similar feature between Qiao Qiqi and Fang Jingru was their eyes and eyebrows. With the area below covered, the two looked exactly like they were cut from the same mold, with identical height and fair skin.

"You are..." Fang Jingru couldn't help but walk out from behind her desk and stand in front of Qiao Qiqi.

Qiao Qiqi didn't know what the two had just talked about in the room, so she turned her head to look at Fang Ke.

Just then, Fang Jingru suddenly reached out and pulled the silk scarf off her face...

With her entire face exposed, Qiao Qiqi's resemblance to Fang Jingru, which was almost identical, immediately diminished to only six or seven parts.

Fang Jingru finally came to her senses, quickly withdrew her hand, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was a little out of line, but I've never met anyone who looks so much like me."

Qiao Qiqi was actually quite shocked. Looking at Fang Jingru in person, the two looked more alike than in the photos.

However, because she had seen the photos beforehand, she didn't seem too surprised. "Hello, my name is Qiao Qiqi, and I'm from Heilong City."

Fang Ke took Fang Jingru's arm and said, "Auntie, when I first saw Qiqi, I thought she was another version of you. I was so surprised!"

Fang Jingru snapped out of her daze and immediately extended her hand to Qiao Qiqi. "Hello, my name is Fang Jingru, I am Fang Ke's aunt. It's nice to meet you."

Qiao Qiqi reached out and shook hands with Fang Jingru.

To be honest, it's quite a strange feeling to see another person with a face that looks about 70% like your own.

Fang Jingru also felt that this moment was particularly wonderful. What was even more wonderful was that although it was the first time she had met Qiao Qiqi, she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to her.

She didn't know where this feeling came from.

Perhaps it was because the girl in front of him looked so much like him, or perhaps it was for some other reason...

Because it was the first time she had this feeling, she couldn't explain why.

Seeing that the two had a child with them, and remembering that it was noon, she quickly asked, "Have you eaten yet? If not, let me treat you to lunch!"

"No need, we came after we finished eating. I just brought Qiqi here so you could meet her, and then we're going shopping."
