"Do you know Aunt Jiang?" Xu Nianhua changed the subject.
"Yeah, I do."
Pei Yicheng explained that back then, the Pei Family and Jiang Family weren't exactly old friends, but they did interact sometimes. His mom was around then, so he'd met them a few times. But today when he saw Jiang Wanru, her face felt oddly familiar.
"Oh, oh, so why did you come to Taozhuang today? Did you hear we were coming over yesterday, so you decided to come too?" Xu Nianhua asked with a playful smile, breaking Pei Yicheng's train of thought. He replied, "Of course—what if my girlfriend's too pretty and someone else steals her away!"
"Pfft~"
Xu Nianhua burst out laughing. She looked at Pei Yicheng in disbelief, sizing him up, thinking about Ruth's gaze earlier, and said, "Shouldn't I be the one worried here?"
"You'd get worried too?"
Pei Yicheng's eyes lit up. It had always been him taking the initiative; Nianhua was always more passive.
