He said as if I know what Auntie Ling duty, or what he wants her to do today, and I have no intention at all to following him to upstairs to finish what I've started.

"Auntie Ling, I just wanted to apologise about this morning," I say shyly.
She rolls her eyes.
"Don't worry, Wei Lin," She assures.
"I was so daring this morning... and I don't know you were coming," I feel my cheeks burning up again as I pick at the last bits of my toaster.
"Wei Lin, it's fine. Feng Teng has told auntie that he has forgotten telling you upon my coming. I can understand." She smiles at me sincerely.
I like Auntie Ling so much. She was friendly and kind-hearted. So curious how long she has been working for Feng Jia.
