Chapter 67: Light – They now share matching couple scars.
This was the first time Jiang Qi met Zhi Minglin and Mei Ran since graduating from elementary school, and it had been ten long years.
It was also their first time… eating together, creating an illusion of being “a family.”
However, the meal was far from pleasant; everyone was silent, each feeling as if there was a lump in their throats.
Mei Ran felt particularly uncomfortable—she was supposed to feed Zhi Qi, but after Jiang Qi entered the room and said, “You all eat,” he took a bowl of wontons and started feeding Zhi Qi bite by bite.
He did it so naturally that it completely usurped her role as a mother.
This made Mei Ran feel quite displeased, especially when she saw Zhi Qi saying nothing and obediently eating as Jiang Qi fed her.
Could this be what they called “a girl growing up”?
Mei Ran felt a chill in her heart, awkwardly picking up the shrimp dumplings that Jiang Qi had bought but unable to eat them.
It wasn’t until the awkward meal concluded that Zhi Minglin finally noticed Jiang Qi’s attentive feeding of Zhi Qi and asked thoughtfully, “Xiao Jiang, you stayed here all night yesterday. Aren’t you going to go back and rest?”
