The aunt smiled, and then said, "Are you here to see Mr. Zhou? He's upstairs, wait for me to call him."

"Thanks."

"No thanks, you sit down first."

The aunt arranged for Pippi to sit down before going upstairs to call Zhou Muqing.

At this time, Zhou Muqing was talking to Zhou's mother in Zhou's mother's room. Zhou's mother was a little surprised that Pippi didn't show up, and at the same time she was a little happy.

"Is she unwilling to see me?"

"No, she has something to do."

Zhou Muqing's tone was light, it sounded like he was bored and in a bad mood.

"Is there something temporary? Otherwise, how can we say that we are together but you are alone to pick me up?"

"I didn't say yes, but I wanted to bring her to see you temporarily."

Zhou Muqing didn't want Zhou's mother to misunderstand Pippi, so he had to explain this matter honestly.

"I didn't arrange this matter. I said that to you on the phone just to hope you understand that we are together now, we are one..."

"Okay, I get it, you just don't want to be separated from her."

Zhou's mother said angrily, "How can I have such a worthless son like you, a little woman who is so obsessed with you and doesn't care about anything. For her, you don't care about my feelings, and you are willing to take the blame for her .”

"What's the blame?"

"It's her problem that she doesn't come, but your explanations are all speaking for her and defending her."

"What I'm saying is the truth. I didn't arrange this matter well."

"Stop talking, I want to sleep."

Mother Zhou really couldn't listen to Zhou Muqing's words, she didn't like her son turning to others.

For Zhou's mother, Zhou Muqing is her only relative, and she hopes that this relative will always put herself first.

This may have been the case in the past, but as long as Pippi appears, everything will change.

"Then you rest."

Zhou Muqing got up and helped Zhou's mother cover the quilt.

When he walked to the door, the aunt at home just knocked on the door, and he opened the door immediately.

"What's wrong?"

"Miss Cheng is here."

Auntie's words made Zhou's mother sit up, and Zhou's mother immediately looked at the door, "Why is she here? Could it be that she came to see me?"

Zhou Muqing turned to look at Zhou's mother, "Don't you want to rest, I'll send her away."

"Why, you don't want us to meet?"

Zhou Muqing didn't know why Pippi came, and felt that Zhou's mother's current state was not suitable for seeing Pippi. She was still dissatisfied with Pippi.

He shouldn't be in a hurry, he should deal with the relationship between these two people slowly.

Rushing for quick results made both sides unhappy, and he has already felt it deeply today.

"You said you wanted to rest, so naturally I won't let others disturb you."

Zhou Muqing insisted on saying this, and Zhou's mother understood what he meant, "I hope you are really doing it for me."

...

Zhou Muqing followed his aunt downstairs, while Pippi was waiting for him anxiously.

"Aren't you busy?"

When Pippi heard Zhou Muqing's voice coming from behind, she immediately turned her head and looked over, "I, I have something to tell you."

"good."

Zhou Muqing walked in front of Pippi with a faint smile.

"Say, I'll listen."

He sat down immediately, without any displeasure or anger on his face.

Pippi picked at her fingers, struggling with how to speak.

She didn't know where her problem was, but she knew that she was not in the right state today, and she shouldn't treat Zhou Muqing that way.

"Today at the office..."

She thought for a while and continued, "I'm not in a good mood, so I'm a little anxious. Maybe it's because of work, so I just..."
