The two returned to their posts and continued working.
As evening approached and work ended, Li Qiao prepared to go home, but was stopped by Xun Dong as she left the office hall, "Li Qiao, you're perceptive. Tonight, follow us and observe."
"Okay." Li Qiao agreed, planning to meet up with Qin Jin first, "I bought you some shoes and clothes."
Qin Jin was extremely happy as it was the first time he had received a gift from her. "Try them on when you get home, let's go!"
Li Qiao indicated that she would be working overtime and sent him back to the courtyard house first.
Qin Jin said, "I need to let Grandma know." And then he left.
Li Qiao returned to her department to wait, joining her colleagues when the time was right to head to the restaurant together.
Ma Ling and Xu Feng had arrived early and were already eating, no longer confronting each other, and chatting and laughing.
The four found a corner seat but made sure they could see the customers entering the door at a glance.
