On the way, Ye Ling called Wang Shufen to tell his mother that he wouldn't be coming home for lunch as he was going to accompany a friend to run some errands, and as for Wang Shufen, she repeatedly told Ye Ling to go ahead with his tasks without worrying about her.
In Wang Shufen's view, her son was making something of himself and earning good money, so he should be busy; after all, what kind of a man would he be if he lounged around at home all day?
Lin Yuqing glanced at Ye Ling and didn't say anything. However, a hint of loss seeped into her eyes. So, in his heart, she was just a friend?
