Mom’s words struck like a thunderclap, jolting Tong Xi back to reality.
Reflecting on her own bewitched and languished state, Tong Xi felt utterly ashad.
Indeed, Gu Zhengming had left. He no longer cared about her. Who was she acting so sorrowful for?
So, she picked herself up again.
Even without Gu Zhengming, her world... must still go on splendidly!

"Hey, Little Chili, what are you thinking about?"
Yunqing’s voice reached her ears, pulling Tong Xi back from her mories, and she was instantly aware of the world before her.
Currently, she was sitting in Yunqing’s car, surrounded by the dim night outside.
Tong Xi smiled.
"Nothing much, just reminiscing about so silly things I did when I was younger. Looking back now, they still seem quite laughable!"
Tong Xi’s voice was light, yet Yunqing seed to detect a faint hint of sadness in her words.
Yunqing raised an eyebrow, speaking softly, "Silly things from when you were little? Care to share with ?"
Tong Xi sighed, her gaze wandering off into the distance.
"I once chased after soone’s silhouette in the pouring rain for three blocks, thinking it was soone I knew."
Yunqing’s eyes narrowed.
"And then? Did you catch up? Was that person... the one you were looking for?"
Tong Xi shook her head.
"In the end? I never actually did catch up, so I’m not certain. But that ti, I paid a painful price... a high fever for three days. Looking back, what was the point? It was simply foolish! What if I had beco stupid from the fever?"
Her self-mocking tone made Yunqing burst into laughter.
"Heh, have you finally co to your senses now?"
"Mhm! I wouldn’t do such a ridiculously stupid thing now, even if you killed !"
Yunqing chuckled, "Yeah, you’ve grown up!"
Tong Xi’s gaze lingered out of the window and suddenly she said, "Hey, stop the car!"
Yunqing pulled over to the side and asked, "What’s up?"
Tong Xi said excitedly, "Why don’t we go eat that?"
Following the direction of Tong Xi’s finger, Yunqing saw a restaurant with a sign that read — 28 Yuan All-You-Can-Eat Hotpot.
In an instant, Yunqing’s mouth twitched, and his charming face fell.
My dear lady, could you have any aspirations?
Yunqing asked again, "Are you... sure?"
Tong Xi nodded,
"Yeah, let’s go for that! What’s wrong, you don’t want to?"
Yunqing quickly waved his hands.
"Of course, I do... but I promised to treat you to a al, shouldn’t we at least choose sothing more expensive?"
This is only a 28 Yuan hotpot, and for two people it’s only 56 yuan...
Isn’t that a bit too... whatever?
In such a situation, Yun Qing had never encountered such before, so he’s quite at a loss right now!
Tong Xi huffed, "What, you’re not happy that I’m saving you so money?"
Yunqing chuckled, his narrow peach-blossom eyes beaming radiantly.
He parted his thin lips, lazily smiling, and said:
"Oh, it is said that before marriage, when a woman goes on a date with her boyfriend, she’d aim for the most expensive things, but after marriage, when she realizes her husband’s money is now her own, she starts to save money for her husband. So, we aren’t even married yet, and you’re already starting to save money for ?"
Tong Xi: "Get lost!"
Yunqing laughed heartily, "Hey, did I hit the nail on the head about what’s on your mind, and now you’re mad because of it, hm?"
