"How good are you to him?" Zhou Yanchen stared at the person in front of him closely.
After hearing this, Shen Qingli's face did not show much emotion.
As if the other person's words were irrelevant to her, she just glanced at him lightly and looked away.
She didn't care at all about what he was thinking, and she was too lazy to make any explanation.
At this moment, what she was more curious about deep down in her heart was why Zhou Yanchen appeared here?
Shen Qingli thought to himself, hoping to find out as soon as possible why he appeared here, and then avoid him as much as possible in the future.
She took a deep breath and asked again, "It's so late, why are you here?"
After a long time, Zhou Yanchen seemed to come back to his senses from his deep thoughts and slowly said, "I came to my friend's house and now I am preparing to go back."
βAnd then, I saw you.β
Hearing this, Shen Qingli's originally anxious heart finally settled down a little.
She cleared her throat gently and said, "Then I'll go back first. Take care."
After saying that, she stepped forward without hesitation, walked straight past Zhou Yanchen and continued walking forward.
Seeing this, Zhou Yanchen couldn't help but turn his head and stare at her gradually receding back.
After a moment's hesitation, he raised his foot and followed Shen Qingli's steps.
"Shen Qingli, is there any shopping mall nearby?" Zhou Yanchen suddenly asked.
Shen Qingli stopped walking when he heard the voice, turned around and looked at him. After a moment of silence, he said, "λ, λ is not far from the entrance of the community."
After that, she said no more, turned around and was about to leave.
"I've never been here, can you take me there?" Zhou Yanchen asked in a low voice.
Shen Qingli refused directly, "It's late, I want to go home, you go by yourself."
She turned around to leave, but a strong hand reached out and tightly grasped her slender arm.
Zhou Yanchen looked at her anxiously and said, "Can you please help me?"
"This time I'm buying something for my friend's child, but I have no idea what children like."
"You should know this better than I do."
"Please take me to buy some."
Hearing this, Shen Qingli frowned.
When she met those eyes full of expectation and help, she didn't know how to refuse. After all, it wasn't really a big help.
Recalling that he had helped her before, she thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "Okay, I'll take you there."
After she finished speaking, she took the lead and walked slowly forward.
Seeing this, Zhou Yanchen raised his lips slightly, and then followed her at a moderate pace.
Along the way, his eyes never left her for a moment.
The various sufferings she had endured alone kept appearing in his mind, and each scene was like a sharp steel needle piercing his heart, causing him great pain.
After a while, Zhou Yanchen suddenly asked, "You've been here for so long, have you always been the only one taking care of the child?"
This sudden question made Shen Qingli stunned for a moment. After a long while, she replied softly: "You need a babysitter."
Even so, her eyes were somewhat evasive, and she seemed unwilling to talk about it too much.
Zhou Yanchen stared at her, his heart full of doubts and distress.
He really wanted to continue asking and find out who was with her when she was a child, or was she really alone?
Or how did she survive those extremely difficult days?
But he knew she didn't want to mention it, so he swallowed the words back.
The two arrived at the supermarket, and Shen Qingli took him directly to the children's toy area.
"You can choose. All the children's toys are here."
Zhou Yanchen glanced at the shelf in front of him, and Shen Jinxi's cute and playful look emerged in his mind.
He had heard her talk many times about the happy scenes when she and her brother played with building blocks. He thought that the brother and sister must like this toy very much.
Zhou Yanchen reached out without hesitation and picked up several building blocks that appeared to be of the highest quality and were placed in the most conspicuous position on the shelf.
However, despite this, he actually didn't know much about Shen Jinnan and Shen Jinxi's specific preferences.
After all, the time he spends with children on weekdays is limited, and he is too embarrassed to ask Shen Qingli this question.
Based on his understanding of Shen Qingli, even if he asked, she might not tell him.
Judging from the information obtained from the usual phone calls with Shen Jinxi, they should like reading very much.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yanchen carefully selected many storybooks.
Before he knew it, he had already bought a lot of items.
When it was time to check out, Zhou Yanchen couldn't help but feel troubled when he saw the mountain of shopping bags.
There was no way he could take away so many things by himself.
In desperation, he had to bite the bullet and ask for help from Shen Qingli who was standing not far away.
Seeing this, Shen Qingli didn't say much, but walked forward silently and helped to lift an item.
Then she casually asked, "Where are you going to send all this?"
Zhou Yanchen secretly tensed up, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and answered, "My friend lives in Building 6."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Qingli's expression changed slightly, obviously shocked by these words.
Because she never expected that the friend Zhou Yanchen mentioned would actually live in the same building with her!
"Um... could you please help me deliver these things to the elevator entrance of Building 6?" Zhou Yanchen spoke again.
Facing Zhou Yanchen's request, Shen Qingli was silent for a moment, and finally responded lightly: "Yeah."
Then, he walked with him towards Building 6.
When they arrived at the elevator entrance and were waiting for the elevator, Zhou Yanchen said to Shen Qingli, "I bought these for Dabao and Xiaobao. Please bring them to them for me."
Hearing this, Shen Qingli was surprised, "What? Didn't you say you bought it for your friend's child?"
Zhou Yanchen smiled and said, "You are my friend. You promised to buy them gifts last time. I can't be a person who goes back on his word."
Shen Qingli thought to himself: When did you become a trustworthy person?
"I thank you on behalf of the children for remembering them, but I cannot accept these gifts."
Zhou Yanchen felt bad when he heard her refusal, "Shen Qingli, I bought this for the children. I hope you won't refuse me."
Shen Qingli pursed her lips tightly, her face showing no emotion, "Thank you, I really don't want to."
After saying this, she put down what she was holding and turned to walk out.
She couldn't let Zhou Yanchen know that she lived in this building.
Seeing this, Zhou Yanchen came up to her and blocked her way.
