Cheng Qicai had some free time between the day she left for City E, so she told Gu Rongqi that she was going home for a visit.
When Ms. Yun saw her return, she squinted at her for a while.
"Mom, what are you looking at?" Cheng Qicai asked, puzzled.
"Old Cheng, come and take a look. Don't you think Cheng Qicai looks a little different?" Mr. Cheng, who was in the room, came out and took a closer look at her.
Mr. Cheng nodded, "It does look somewhat different."
"Huh?" Cheng Qicai touched her face and looked at her whole body. "What's different?"
She felt that she was no different from before!
"She just looks better now, with a rosy complexion, and her overall demeanor seems to have improved..." Ms. Yun pondered, touching her chin.
She suddenly looked at Cheng Qicai with piercing eyes, "You're not in a relationship, are you?"
Cheng Qicai sounded guilty, her eyes darting around as she said, "No!"
"Heh, Cheng Qicai, I told you, the moment you stick your butt out, I know whether you're taking a dump or farting," Ms. Yun sneered.
Cheng Qicai knew that if she stubbornly continued to deny it, Ms. Yun would immediately draw a positive conclusion.
So she could only say, half-truthfully, "We haven't really talked about it. As I told you before, we're still getting to know each other."
"Oh!" Ms. Yun's face immediately lit up with a smile. "So, what do you think of the other person?"
"Just like my sister said!" Cheng Qicai was a little unsure of herself, so she had to bring up Yun Suni.
"She was expressing her feelings at the time, so just share your current perspective on her."
"He's great. He's handsome, considerate, gentle, and has a good temper. He always puts up with me. He didn't know how to cook before, but he's learned to cook now..."
As Cheng Qicai spoke, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
As someone who has been through similar experiences, how could Ms. Yun not see what her condition signifies?
She said earnestly, "She's such a nice person, so you should talk to her properly. When it's a good time, you can bring her back for us to see."
"Uh... okay." Cheng Qicai hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
She wasn't sure if Ms. Yun would want to kill her if she brought Gu Rongqi back.
She glanced at Ms. Yun and figured that her good mood would only last for a while.
After Cheng Qicai finished eating and was about to go back, Ms. Yun called her back and put a jar in her hand.
"Seven Colors, this is wild mushroom sauce made from the mushrooms your grandfather picked in the mountains this year. Here, take this... what's it called?"
Ms. Yun frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't remember the name of the boy Yun Su Ni had mentioned.
Cheng Qicai broke out in a cold sweat, fearing she might come up with something. She immediately replied, "Xiao Qi, you can just call him Xiao Qi."
"Oh, take a portion of this sauce to Xiao Qi!"
"Okay!" Cheng Qicai nodded hurriedly and walked out quickly.
"Cheng Qicai!" Ms. Yun's voice rang out from behind.
Cheng Qicai forced herself to ask, "What is it, Mom?"
"What is it?!" Ms. Yun scolded from behind, "You forgot your phone! I bet you'll have to take the bus back to get it later. When are you going to get rid of this forgetful habit..."
"Okay, Mom, I'm off now."
Cheng Qicai walked out the door, letting out a breath of stale air. She really couldn't handle Ms. Yun's questions.
If she hadn't been away from home for so long after starting her relationship with Gu Rongqi, she wouldn't have had to come back to be tortured like this.
Especially since Ms. Yun knew her too well, it would be difficult for her to hide anything from her.
She walked out of the subway, glanced at the sauce in her hand, and, too lazy to make another trip to Gu Rongqi's place.
She wanted to put it in the refrigerator first, and then give it to him when she came back.
Since starting her relationship with Gu Rongqi, although the two haven't lived together, they've each acquired a lot of each other's belongings from each other's homes.
After packing her luggage for her trip to City E, Cheng Qicai washed up and lay down on the bed.
