Shen Mingzhu finished her work and glanced at her watch, half past eleven.

Guessing that Pei Wenping must be feeling terrible after sending off her family, Shen Mingzhu picked up her bag and drove to the family quarters.

She parked the car, went upstairs, and knocked on the door.

The door was quickly opened from the inside, revealing Pei Wenping’s face with eyes red from crying.

Shen Mingzhu entered, placed her bag on the shoe cabinet, and bent down to open the cabinet door to get slippers.

Pei Wenping said, looking at her, "You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’ll make you something."

Shen Mingzhu followed her, "I’ll help you. It’s been a long time since we cooked together."

She opened the refrigerator, which was empty.

Pei Wenping felt a bit embarrassed, "I forgot to buy groceries. I’ll go down and buy some. What do you want to eat?"
