As Neil's SUV drove away, a figure walked out of the shadow. It was Headmistress Fu and she was watching the direction where the vehicle had disappeared to with her eyes wide and her mouth slightly ajar. 

The elderly lady stood at the same spot for almost two minutes before her knee finally grew tired and she finally snapped out of her thoughts. Headmistress Fu turned to her office and wondered if her eyes were playing tricks on her. 

Just now, she did see that Neil Mo was kissing with her teacher, Edith. 

From the way the two interacted, it does look like their relationship was more than she had thought.

Headmistress Fu continued to ponder about what she had seen until she concluded. She had seen the world long enough to know what was going on between Edith and Neil. 

Since the two were obviously in a romantic relationship, then, what was the point of her friend asking her help to watch over the two and help them to develop a relationship? 

Headmistress Fu sat on her chair and reached for her phone. She dialed the number and someone picked it up after a few rings. 

"Why did you call me at this time," Sophie asked after exchanging a few pleasantries with her friend.

Headmistress Fu smiled before she spoke. "Sophie, I don't think you need me to look after your son and Teacher Qian. It seemed that we didn't have to intervene."

Sophie was surprised upon hearing that her friend had changed her mind about helping her. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Do you know what did I just saw in front of the kindergarten?"

"What did you see?"

"It was your son, ah. I think he was here to pick up Teacher Qian after work. But that was not the most surprising thing at all."

Hearing that her son came to pick up Edith from work made Sophie a little bit excited. At least, she knew that her son was not totally hopeless at wooing a girl. However, her friend's tone and voice still made her worry and Sophie was unable to calm down.

"What is it?" Sophie asked.

"Just now, I saw them kissing." Headmistress Fu's voice grew softer as if she was embarrassed to say it aloud.

Because of her friend's soft voice, Sophie had thought that perhaps she had misheard things. "What did you say? I did not hear it clearly."

"Kissing. Your son and Teacher Qian were kissing at the entrance, ah."

Sophie let out a loud gasp, shocked upon hearing the news. "You sure it was my son?"

"Of course I'm sure. I might be old, but my eyesight is very good. It was definitely your son. I have seen his vehicle a few times and even memorized his plate number."

Sophie grew excited. Various thoughts came to her mind and she could not wait to call her son and verify the news with him. Then maybe she could ask them to come over to Z Town this weekend. Or perhaps she should drag her husband to L City to see those two.

Kissing. Her son was kissing a girl! Suddenly, Sophie was very proud of her son. A while later, the wedding firecrackers in her mind were lit up and Sophie started to plan a wedding…

"The way I see it, I think they should be in a relationship," Headmistress Fu continued. "Since they already progress this much, then you definitely don't need me to meddle in with their affair."

Sophie Huang was all smiles after she hangs up the phone call with her friend. With that joyous news, she went to find her husband to gossip about their son.

But just as Sophie told her husband about her idea about going over to L City to meet their future daughter-in-law, her husband, Lucas had quickly rejected her proposal.

Lucas Mo has been married to his wife for more than thirty years and knew well that his wife was excited. 

"You have seen the way the two interacted during our last time in L City," Lucas said. "From the way I see it, their relationship had just begun. If we come over to see them, Teacher Qian would be embarrassed. Then, how do you expect their relationship to progress?"

"Then… should we ask them to come here?"

Lucas heaved a long sigh. "If you ask them to come back and ask about their relationship, do you think Teacher Qian would not be scared? It was hard for your son to have a girlfriend. Do you want her to run away? The best thing we can do is to let them be. When it's time, your son will bring back the person he wanted to marry back home. What are you worrying about?"

After giving her husband's words of advice a long thought, Sophie finally decided not to interfere with her son's affair. She was still hoping to see her son coming back with a daughter-in-law for her. Hazel would need younger siblings to accompany her.

…

Meanwhile, the couple that the elders were worried about was having their dinner date. As they stepped arrived, Edith held on to Neil's arms as he led her inside the building.

Her eyes swept around the unfamiliar surroundings until the waiter showed them to their table. Once they were seated, Edith propped her chin with her elbow and looked at the man seated in front of her.

"Is this place expensive?"

Neil chuckled at her question. "Don't worry. I won't let my girlfriend starve and end up hunting for instant noodles in the kitchen cabinet in the middle of the night. This place should be to your liking. The atmosphere is good and their food is pretty good."

"President Mo, you take me out to this place to eat delicious food." Her lips curled into a teasing smile. "Aren't you afraid that your niece would be upset when she finds out?"

"She won't be upset. Earlier, Hazel told me that Nanny Ann was going to make her favorite food. Moreover..." His brow furrowed in displease. "Why are you still call me President Mo?"

"Why not? I think this name is cute."

"You don't work for me. Why do you want to call me that? Change it."

"Then, what do you like?" A mischievous smile curved on her lips. "Iceblock Mo?"

His eyes flashed with a dangerous glint. "What do you say?" He really wanted to bite this girl and see if she dared to call him Iceblock Mo again.

Edith subconsciously leaned back on her seat. Seconds later, she leaned closer to him and smiled again. "Then..." her voice was a whisper.. Edith tilted her head sideways and blinked. "Should I call you darling?"
