Although they had only been apart for a few days, Gu Mian felt as if it had been a very long time.
The moment their gazes met, both of them had complex emotions swirling in their eyes, but neither of them spoke first.
"Gu Mian, your timing couldn't be better," Su Mei approached, "Oh, did you bring me flowers?"
"Yes," Gu Mian diverted her gaze from Li Tingshen and said, "I ordered two pots of orchids for you at the flower shop, I hope you like them."
"I like them very much, thank you. Come on in," Su Mei said with a smile as she ushered her inside. "I actually contacted President Li on a whim, not expecting he would really have time to come over. I'm truly honored."
"You've helped me so much, and I don't know how to thank you. I thought about giving gifts, but it's not like you people lack money. I was afraid you wouldn't care for them, so I could only invite you to share a meal as a token of my gratitude."
Gu Mian smiled, "You're too polite, Sister Su Mei."
