Shocking! A three-year-old brings his aloof mother to their door.

Mo Ye patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong? You look like...emmm."

Wang Jie had nothing to hide from Mo Ye, so he told her directly.

Mo Ye listened and nodded: "Feelings are something that will come when the time is right; there's no need to force it. Dating just for the sake of dating is not good for either of you."

He never dared to imagine that he would fall in love or get married, thinking that such things were impossible for him.

But I just suddenly fell in love with it.

Love is a strange thing; it doesn't appear when you want it, but it appears when you stop caring about it.

Wang Jie nodded, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled: "I'm still young, no rush. I'll focus on my work and career first."

Mo Ye didn't say anything, he just patted him on the shoulder.

He was incredibly lucky to meet Wanqing in this world of fast-paced, superficial relationships.

It's not difficult to have a conversation, but you might get scammed. You could easily fall into someone else's trap.

As the two were lost in their own thoughts, the door at the end of the corridor opened.

Shen Qing came out.

The expression on his face, how should I put it, was like he had just eaten a whole jar of honey, radiating sweetness from the inside out.

Her lips were turned up so high she couldn't suppress them, her eyes were full of light, and she seemed to be walking on clouds, her steps light and airy.

Mo Ye and Wang Jie exchanged a glance, both stunned for a moment—had it worked?

The two quickly put aside their previous chaotic thoughts and moved closer.

"How is it?" Wang Jie asked impatiently.

Shen Qing held up her phone and waved it in front of them. The screen lit up, displaying a Fetion business card.

He laughed like a 200-pound child: "I've added their contact information!"

Looking at his beaming expression, the two of them assumed that he and Qin Yue had already confirmed their relationship.

It turns out they just wanted my contact information.

Wang Jie leaned closer, his tone smirking: "How did you add it?"

Shen Qing took the phone back, stuffed it into her pocket like a precious treasure, and patted it, as if afraid it would run away on its own.

He cleared his throat, trying to make his tone sound calm, but the upturned corners of his mouth betrayed him:

"Sister Qin said she'd treat me to dinner next time, so I asked her for her contact information, hehe..."

Mo Ye and Wang Jie both fell silent.

As for feelings... well, as long as the brother is happy.

Fortunately, Qin Yue wasn't the kind of woman who liked keeping fish, otherwise Shen Qing would have been completely fooled.

As his brother, I still hope he can succeed.

"Let's go eat." Shen Qing waved his hand generously, unusually so for once. "It's on me, eat whatever you want!"

Wang Jie immediately put his arm around Mo Ye's shoulder, his eyes sparkling, and started making outrageous demands: "Let's order a few bottles of 1982 Lafite first, I've never had it before."

Shen Qing's smile froze instantly, and her voice changed: "Wow, you guys are really going all out!"

The two nodded simultaneously, saying in unison, "Being polite is just a way of looking down on you!"

Shen Qing immediately waved her hand, her face full of sincerity: "No, no, no, I'm the kind of person who gets looked down upon. I like it when people look at me like I'm trash."

Mo Ye and Wang Jie were both speechless: "............."

How come I never noticed how despicable he was before?

No, he's always been this despicable.

Shen Qing put away her playful smile and said seriously, "Let's go eat Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste)."

He wanted to try the fried noodles with soybean paste that Sister Qin liked.

Mo Ye and Wang Jie had no objections.

As long as there's food, that's fine. Anyway, if you're treating, you're the godfather, and if I'm treating, you're all sons.

There's no choice but to have a son.

The three of them walked to the fried noodles shop and went inside.

The shop is small, but it is clean and tidy.

Shen Qing stood in front of the counter, pointed to the menu, and said, "One serving of their signature fried noodles with soybean paste."

Mo Ye and Wang Jie glanced at the price, which seemed reasonable, then looked at the "top-of-the-line" option on the menu and spoke simultaneously:

"Boss, give me the top-of-the-line one." After saying that, they exchanged a knowing glance and smiled knowingly.

Shen Qing was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead in frustration.

Oh right, why didn't he think of buying the top-of-the-line model for Sister Qin back then?

Will Sister Qin feel that I don't value her?

He began to become paranoid, and all sorts of strange thoughts popped into his head.

The noodles have been served.

The bowl in front of Mo Ye and Wang Jie was piled high with ingredients: beef, shrimp, fried egg, cucumber shreds, and carrot shreds, all neatly arranged and looked very appetizing.

The bowl in front of Shen Qing contained only fried sauce and shredded cucumber, plain and simple.

Mo Ye and Wang Jie took a bite, then nodded simultaneously: "It tastes good."

Wang Jie chewed his noodles and mumbled, "Even shit tastes good to someone who gets something for free."

Shen Qing picked up a mouthful of noodles, put it in her mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had discovered some amazing secret.

He swallowed it and solemnly declared, "This is absolutely the best Zhajiangmian I've ever eaten."

Mo Ye and Wang Jie exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously, saying "Ah, yes, yes, yes." Wang Jie then said in a high-pitched, sarcastic tone:

"Sister Qin likes to eat delicious food, right, Shen Qing?"

Shen Qing wasn't annoyed; her face held a sense of superiority that said, "You don't understand me." She replied, "Of course not."

Wang Jie was utterly speechless. He silently stamped Shen Qing's name in his mind, confirming that she was indeed a love-struck fool.

The three of them ate and drank their fill, then patted their bellies and walked out of the noodle shop.

Mo Ye took out his phone, glanced at it, and sent He Wanqing a message: 【Finished eating? How about you?】

He Wanqing quickly replied: [Just finished eating and am resting in the office. Do you have classes this afternoon?]

Mo Ye thought about the afternoon classes, which were all electives that he could take or not.

He replied: "I don't have classes. Do you want me to go to the company to help you with some documents?"

He Wanqing was silent for a few seconds, then sent a message:

No need, there aren't many documents today, I can finish them myself quickly. You can stay at school.

Mo Ye looked at the message and a smile curved his lips.

He put away his phone and followed Shen Qing and Wang Jie toward the school.

As Shen Qing approached the Cainiao Post Station, she suddenly remembered something and slapped her thigh: "Oh right, my mom sent me some things, probably food."

Wang Jie immediately leaned over, put his arm around Shen Qing's shoulder, and plastered a fawning smile on his face: "What delicious food did Mom send?"

Shen Qing rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "Get lost."

Three people walked into the Cainiao Post Station.

Shen Qing gave her pickup code, and the staff took a cardboard box off the shelf. It wasn't big, but it was heavy.

Shen Qing carried the box out with both hands, and Wang Jie immediately followed, reaching out to take it: "Come on, let me help you carry it, it's too tiring."

Shen Qing was too lazy to expose him, but still handed the box over.

In recent years, the things sent from home have all been eaten together, so there's nothing to fuss about.

He dusted off his hands and sighed dramatically, "I am very gratified that my adopted son is helping to share my burden."

Wang Jie held the box, not arguing, believing that whoever offered the milk was the father.

He weighed the box, estimating that it was indeed full of food, and his smile became even more genuine: "Let's go back to the dorm and open the box."
