Bai Zhi firmly poked her toe on the ground, "No, I want to be alone for a while. I don't want to be stuck together all day."
This line worked well, as he was also afraid she'd get annoyed with him. Upon hearing this, he dared not push her too hard and reluctantly agreed.

That evening after work, Duan Xingzhi didn't go to pick her up; instead, he went straight back to the family house.
Mrs. Duan was a bit surprised to see him back, "Why did you come back? You didn't call ahead, or I would have asked the kitchen to make your favorite dishes."
"No need, anything will do." Duan Xingzhi took off his coat, handed it to the maid, then sat down on the sofa. He took the teacup Mrs. Duan handed over and had a sip, "Didn't Lao Er and Lao San come back?"
