"Linlin, is this your friend?"
Xu Qingyou asked tentatively.
Xu Lin nodded, turning slightly to make the introduction.
"Mom, Dad, this is Lin Jiang. He's the one who helps me pick up Xuanxuan when I'm busy."
"Young man, thank you so much."
"We're neighbors. It's just a small thing, really."
"Grandma, Grandpa, didn't you say you wanted to talk to Uncle Lin? You can talk to him now."
Lin Jiang and Xu Lin exchanged a look, not knowing what the old couple wanted to talk about.
"When did I say I wanted to talk to your Uncle Lin? I wanted to talk to your mom."
"The house is still under renovation. I should go supervise the work. Excuse me for a moment."
Lin Jiang found an excuse and left.
"Mom, Dad, I've already made up my mind. Let's not talk about this anymore."
Xu Lin guessed what her parents were about to say and spoke first, cutting them off.
