Jiang Chunfen nodded. “It’s the first of October, so we haven’t gone on a trip together. We were just talking about going out to play.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Chunfen looked at Wang Yunmei regretfully and said, “It’s a pity that Yunmei can’t go. Maldives is beautiful.”
“It’s fine. There will be many opportunities in the future.” Wang Yunmei smiled indifferently. “As long as you guys have fun. When the time comes, bring your cameras and take more photos for me to see. I’ll treat it as if I’ve been there.”
“Mom, I’ll take you on a trip during the New Year,” Jian Ai said to Wang Yunmei.
Wang Yunmei smiled and nodded. “Alright, we’ll arrange another one during the New Year.”
“Mom, I want to go too,” Wang Zichen looked at Jiang Chunfen with an aggrieved expression.
When Jiang Chunfen heard this, she couldn’t help but persuade him, “Don’t think about this now. Your father won’t agree. After this year, no one will care about you.”
Wang Zichen also knew that Wang Yunzhong wouldn’t agree. Hearing this, he couldn’t help but lower his head in disappointment.
Wang Yunmei didn’t forget to take care of Ji Haoyu. She asked with concern, “Haoyu, are you used to eating these? I wonder if you like dumplings.”
“Auntie, you don’t have to be so polite with me. I came because I wanted to eat dumplings,” Ji Haoyu said with a smile.
Jian Ai also said, “Mom, let him be self-sufficient. He’s not a child anymore.”
Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but glare at Jian Ai. “Nonsense. I don’t treat him as a child. Haoyu is a guest…”
“Auntie, just treat me as family. You don’t have to treat me as a guest. This way, I’ll be more at ease,” Ji Haoyu looked at Wang Yunmei and said.
Wang Yunmei could only smile and nod. “Alright, don’t stand on ceremony then. Auntie won’t care about you anymore.”
Looking at the warm and natural scene of the two of them interacting, Jian Ai felt as if someone had snatched her mother away.
After dinner, Ji Haoyu drove Jian Ai back to North City.
On the way, Ji Haoyu said as he drove, “It’s not that I want to say this, but it’s too inconvenient for you to stay there. It’s also far from school, far from Auntie, and even further from South City.”
“I have a few empty houses near Erzhong. You can move there and stay wherever you want.”
Jian Ai said, “I naturally have my reasons for living in North City. Don’t worry about it.”
“What reasons? Tell me,” Ji Haoyu looked at Jian Ai and asked with a smile.
Jian Ai thought for a moment and said, “I’m learning martial arts at a martial arts school in North City. My morning exercise is at five in the morning. I moved there because of this. Otherwise, do you think I would stay so far away?”
Ji Haoyu: “Learn martial arts? On the martial arts school street in North City?”
Jian Ai nodded. “Yes.”
This reason was acceptable. Ji Haoyu raised his eyebrows slightly and understood Jian Ai a little more.
The next day, Wang Yunmei arrived early in the afternoon before Yaochi opened for business. Today was the time for the various departments to hold a meeting. The first of October holidays were approaching, so Yaochi Club’s business would be busier than usual.
Especially last year, the club organized an activity on the first of October. The effect was beneficial, so Wang Yunmei planned to continue launching holiday activities this year. The project work had already been arranged for the various departments a month ago.
However, as soon as Wang Yunmei entered the club lobby and was about to walk towards the elevator, the product manager stopped her.
