The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Watching Shen Mingzhu leave, Zhong Qing turned to Manager Yu with a slight smile and said, "After the police station returns the bracelet, please send someone to deliver it to my place, I want it."

Manager Yu advised subconsciously, his tone respectful and affectionate, "If you like this bracelet, I can pick a better one for you in a couple of days. This green jade bracelet is of average quality and has been tainted with controversy; it’s really not suitable to keep around you."

Zhong Qing chuckled lightly, "It’s alright, just send it over."

Seeing her insistence, Manager Yu didn’t advise further.

Although it was a rare opportunity to score a deal, Shen Mingzhu dared not take advantage too much, choosing only simple designs and affordable materials.

After leaving Junlin, Shen Mingzhu wanted to take the bus back by herself, but Zhong Qing insisted on driving her, under the pretense of: getting familiar with the route for easier future visits.

Shen Mingzhu expressed: "As long as Ning is happy, it’s good."

Once in the car, Shen Mingzhu couldn’t help touching her face when she saw Zhong Qing keeping a smiling gaze on her, "Is there something on my face?"

Zhong Qing nodded, "Mingzhu, you are so interesting and smart, I’m really starting to like you more and more."

Was this supposed to be a compliment?
