After the meal, Zhang Huifang had to take care of seeing the guests out. Zhang Man said goodbye to Uncle Xu and she brought Li Wei and Chen Feier out of the hotel.

Chen Feier didn’t want to watch them show off their affection at all, so she quickly went on the bus and left.

Zhang Man took the youth’s hand, and they followed the path next to the hotel. They were planning on going on a walk first.

Today was the Lantern Festival. It was very busy outside. They could see the exploding fireworks and the paper lanterns flying in the sky.

The tall sycamore trees on both sides of the road had already lost their leaves. They looked bare, and they probably had to wait for the weather to get warmer before new leaves grow

Zhang Man pulled at the youth’s sleeve.

“Boyfriend, you had dinner today, played mahjong, and received red envelopes. Are you happy?”

Since he began to receive psychological treatment, asking him whether he was happy or not had become a daily essential task for her.

She made an agreement with him beforehand. Happy meant happy, unhappy meant unhappy. He wasn’t allowed to lie to her.

The youth nodded very honestly.

“I am very happy today, especially because…”

As he spoke, led her past a street lamp, and suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.

A light kiss landed on her lips, and it left the moment it made contact.

After the kiss, he looked at her with glistening eyes. It was affectionate and gentle, and had nothing to hide.

Zhang Man’s heart was pounding.

She thought he was going to say something affectionate, but the boy smiled.

“I received a red envelope.”

Zhang Man hammered him with annoyance, but he pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply.

—Truthfully, sometimes, it was very discouraging.

That kind of depression was uncontrollable. For example, until now, he couldn’t taste anything when he ate, and he didn’t have any interest in many things.

Fortunately, loving her was enough happiness.

As long as he thought of her, he would want to summon up courage to do a lot of things, and find the energy to bring out happiness from all the unhappiness inside.

The two young lovers were slowly walking around. Meanwhile, Zhang Huifang saw off the last guest. She was so tired that she was sitting in the car and rubbing her calves with a groan.

They clearly said that they would not accept any money gifts at the banquet today, but the Xu family was truly a respectable family . They did not give money, but prepared expensive gifts instead.

Of course, the most expensive gift was a pair of watches from Li Wei. When Xu Shang took them, he was still a little speechless.

—This smelly boy. He is trying to out class the diamond ring I bought for Zhang Huifang.

Xu Shang put all the gifts in the trunk and locked it. He opened the door and sat in the driver’s seat. Then, he rubbed his wife’s shoulder.

“Xiao Fang, what do you think of Li Wei’s valuable gift? What should we give back in return? It’s not good to give luxury goods to a teenager. I thought about it for a while and couldn’t think of any suitable gifts.”

Zhang Huifang looked at him strangely and raised an eyebrow.

“I think you are being stupid and you are overthinking it. Me give him a return gift? He has abducted my daughter, so why do I have to give him a gift back? Hmph…”

She was really thinking of that last video call that made her drop her half eaten dumpling. Zhang Huifang’s cold hmph was coming out stronger.

She heard that this smelly boy still had some mental illnesses and could not be beaten or scolded. Zhang Huifang swallowed her anger. He wants us to give him a return gift?

Let him spend that money. What’s wrong with that?

Xu Shang rubbed her shoulder and laughed as he said, “Do you really hate him? Why did you let him come today?”

Zhang Huifang let out a snort. “It’s not because I’m short of people, a gathering was happening. That’s all.”

Xu Shang shook his head and said, “You never tell the truth.”

The Lantern Festival was not the reason why she wanted to ask him to have a meal with them.

It was a holiday. It was too lonely for a child to be alone. The more people there were, the merrier it was.

…

After the Lantern Festival, high school students were forced to return to school immediately.

In fact, the first year students were really happy. The second and the third year students couldn’t celebrate the Lantern Festival. The third year students had to go back to school on the eighth day of the year.

Li Wei was originally taking a leave of absence from school this semester, but Zhang Man thought that he would be too lonely at home alone. Thus, she had a discussion with him about returning to school and going to the hospital for therapy two days a week.

In any case, the course load was not intense.

With this schedule, she could spend more time with him every day.

Zhang Man’s physics score in the final exam of last semester was really great. Since Li Wei missed the exam, she took first place in the class. As soon as school started, the head teacher went to find her and asked her if she had any intention of going to the physics competition later.

Zhang Man quickly nodded and agreed.
