She received a call from Feng Ziheng.
"Are you at home?" Feng Ziheng's cool voice came through.
"No, I'm out shopping with Du Li," Chu Liangxia stepped out of the store and explained.
"Okay," Feng Ziheng replied, "there's a get-together at the school, so I'll be back later."
"Fine."
Chu Liangxia didn't give it much thought and simply agreed.
They didn't talk much, as Feng Ziheng seemed to be a bit busy, so they hung up soon after.
"Sis, let's have dinner before we go back."
Du Li came up to Chu Liangxia lugging bags big and small, grinning from ear to ear.
Chu Liangxia, who had just put away her phone, cocked her head and shrugged, "Are you treating?"
"Sure!"
Du Li nodded without hesitation, his smile glowing.
Chu Liangxia looked at him silently.
Then, she called Sister Lin and told her she wouldn't be back for dinner.
Sister Lin confirmed several times that she was going to eat out before hanging up.
Chu Liangxia took out the shopping list again.
