"He's left to work, and would only be back at night.'
"Oh, I see." Qiao Biluo nodded slowly in understanding, envy lurking just beneath her eyes. "I've actually assumed that you were a single mother, Xixi. I envy you having a child, but why aren't you married to the boy's father?"
Ji Weixi came up with a reason at random. "He's busy with work and doesn't have the time."
"That's just an excuse!" Qiao Biluo became paler immediately. "I'm telling you, men would give every excuse they could if they don't want to marry you!"
"You already gave him a child, but he still wouldn't give you the title? There are only two explanations: one, he doesn't love you or your son—and two, he is just fooling around with you and doesn't care about you at all!"
Qiao Biluo was now offering advice sincerely as if she had experienced it in the past. "Xixi, I'm telling you, don't be with a man like that or you'll end up very hurt!"
