The next day, Sangshen and Sister Fang went to the textile factory together to look for Sister Xu.
Aunt Xu was quite surprised to hear that someone was looking for her, but she was relieved when she saw Sangshen. After hearing why Sangshen had come, she smiled gratefully.
“Brother Sang, these are minor matters; your wife can handle them herself.”
Sangshen glanced at her, realizing she was speaking from the heart, and didn't press her further, simply saying, "Sister-in-law Xu, if you encounter any difficulties, be sure to tell us."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Sister-in-law Xu smiled gently.
Having learned of Sister Xu's attitude, Sangshen and Sister Fang also accomplished their goal for this trip.
It was lunchtime, and we didn't want to keep them from eating. "Sister Xu, if there's nothing else, you can go back and have your meal. We're heading back too," Sangshen said.
Sister-in-law Xu didn't try to stop them. She nodded and watched the two walk away before turning back to the factory.
Sang Zhang had initially found her a job as a logistics officer in a textile factory, but after joining, she took the initiative to ask someone to change her job to work in the workshop.
There's no other reason than that the logistics officer's job is very easy, but the corresponding salary is also low. In addition, she can get a sum of money by switching from the job of an officer to a job in the workshop, which can alleviate her predicament when she first arrived. It can be said to be a win-win-win situation.
Although it was tiring, she felt fulfilled as long as she could support herself and her four children with her own abilities.
As for that shameless old man Wang, Sister Xu pursed her lips, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes. There's plenty of time for that!
On the other side, Sangshen and Sister Fang left the textile factory. They had only walked a short distance when they involuntarily stopped, staring intently in one direction with expressions of utter disbelief.
Aunt Fang noticed he had stopped and turned back in confusion: "Xiao Qi?"
"Sister Fang, do you think that's Xie Dong?"
"Dongzi?" Aunt Fang followed his gaze and indeed saw a familiar figure: "Is that his girlfriend? Didn't Dongzi tell you?"
Mulberry shook her head blankly: "No, and I didn't tell you either?"
Aunt Fang: "No."
The two looked at each other, then simultaneously glanced at Xie Dong and a woman not far away, their eyes gleaming with gossip.
Only after Xie Dong and the woman disappeared around the corner did the two turn their attention away. Fang's wife asked, "Xiao Qi, do you know that woman?"
"I don't know him," Sangshen replied. "I'll ask Xie Dong tonight."
Aunt Fang seemed to agree wholeheartedly.
So, as soon as Xie Dong got off work that evening, before he could even get home, Sang Shen grabbed him and dragged him to the next room: "Hey, hey, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Sangshen didn't answer, but pulled him into the living room and pressed him down onto a stool: "Dongzi, I have something to ask you, and you must tell me the truth."
Seeing the mulberry's serious expression, Xie Dong also put away his playful smile: "Go on."
He only saw Sangshen's thin lips slightly parted, opening and closing: "Are you dating someone?"
"Huh?" Xie Dong thought he must have misheard something.
"Are you dating someone?" Sangshen asked again, trying to make sure he heard her clearly.
Xie Dong's expression turned indescribable upon hearing this: "That's all?"
Mulberry nodded matter-of-factly: "That's it."
Xie Dong rolled his eyes, pushed Sang Shen aside, and stood up: "None of your business!"
"Hey, you're so ungrateful, aren't you? I'm just concerned about you." Sangshen tried to use moral blackmail.
"I think you just want to watch the show!" Xie Dong bluntly exposed him.
"It doesn't stop me from caring about you!" Sang Shen retorted stubbornly.
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome!" Sang Shen said shamelessly.
Xie Dong was utterly smitten by his shamelessness and didn't bother arguing with him; he simply turned and left.
“I’ll tell Grandpa~” Mulberry’s voice rang out softly.
"Sang Xiaoqi, have you no shame? How old are you and you still complain to your parents all the time!" Xie Dong turned around and glared angrily.
The greasy mulberry grinned crookedly: "No."
Xie Dong gritted his teeth in anger, but finally gave in: "I'm really scared of you. I don't have a girlfriend, okay?"
"Are you kidding me?" Sangshen looked at him suspiciously. "I saw you walking with a woman at noon today."
After saying that, he added, "And Aunt Fang, she saw it too."
Xie Dong thought to himself, no wonder he asked this out of the blue, but then said, "I really don't have a boyfriend. I just met a friend at noon today."
"Friends?" Mulberry expressed disbelief.
"They're really friends. Their family helped me before, and this time it was just a coincidence that we ran into each other again," Xie Dong explained earnestly.
"accidental?"
“That’s right, it was just a coincidence.” Xie Dong conveyed his determination with his eyes.
"Dongzi, you're lying to us, aren't you?" Aunt Fang, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, pushed open the door to make her presence known.
Xie Dong: ...
"Sister Fang, why don't you come in and listen? It's so hot outside!" Seriously?
Aunt Fang then realized her mistake and gave an embarrassed smile: "I...I didn't bring you wild grapes. I just bought them today, they're fresh!"
Xie Dong gave a half-smile, neither confirming nor denying his belief, only saying, "Give it to Sang Xiaoqi, I have something to do later."
"What's up?" Mulberry's annoying voice rang out.
Xie Dong replied expressionlessly, "It's a private matter."
Sangshen wanted to ask if there was any private matter they couldn't know, but seeing Xie Dong's expression, she wisely kept quiet.
“Oh, you’re busy!” he said.
Xie Dong chuckled, didn't bother with him, and turned to leave the house.
He was completely unaware of the gazes directed at him from behind.
"Xiao Qi, do you believe what he says?" Aunt Fang asked thoughtfully.
