"What, she already left? Didn't she come over with us to weed, how could she be gone?"
When Xiaoting looked back earlier, she didn't see her mother's trace. Then she understood her mother's intentions.
She guessed her mother did this to create an opportunity for her.
Of course, she couldn't tell Xiaolong about her mother's words. If she did, it would not only make her mother look bad but also embarrass herself.
She liked Xiaolong, but that didn't mean she didn't love her mom.
Thinking this in her heart, Xiaoting let out a chuckle.
"Just now my mom said that the weeds over in that field were thicker, so she went there by herself to weed first."
Upon hearing Xiaoting's explanation, Xiaolong also breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though Xiaoting and he were childhood sweethearts, they were not engaged yet. If Aunt Xu saw them in the cornfield like this, it would be too embarrassing.
