“Teacher Wu, do you have friends coming over?” Ji Yuanyuan asked when Wu Qiuyun put down her phone.

Wu Qiuyun waved her hand. “It’s my boyfriend. It’s okay. You guys can eat.”

Ji Yuanyuan and Cao Xiaorui looked at each other, their eyes lit up.

Cao Xiaorui quickly swallowed the beef in her mouth and asked nosily, “Teacher Wu, how long have you been together? What kind of person was he? Is he good to you?”

“We’ve been together for two years, and he’s been good to me. As for what kind of person he is, you’ll know when you see him later.”

“Two years? Then when are you getting married? I have to plan and save up the money in advance.” Cao Xiaorui asked with a smile.

Wu Qiuyun smiled helplessly. “I’m already 50 years old. What’s the point of getting married?”

“How can you be fifty? There are still a few years left.” Ji Yuanyuan quickly said.

Cao Xiaorui looked at Wu Qiuyun’s expression and said boldly, “You can still have children at your age. Don’t you want to have your own child?”

Wu Qiuyun was a little embarrassed and annoyed. She picked up her chopsticks and pretended to throw them at Cao Xiaorui’s head. “I realize that you’re not taking me seriously anymore. You’re so rude.”

Cao Xiaorui smiled embarrassedly. “I’m only like this because I have a good relationship with you.”

Wu Qiuyun couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t worry. I’m not getting married. You don’t have to save up money for me. Keep the money to buy meat.”

“So your boyfriend also agreed?” Cao Xiaorui was a little surprised.

“He has a child. The child is about to get married. It’s good for the two of us to maintain the status quo. There’s no interest involved, and our relationship is purer.” Wu Qiuyun said with a smile.

Ever since a few years ago, after a few of them experienced Duan Wenguang’s matter together, Wu Qiuyun was no longer just their teacher.

They were more like friends and could talk a lot.

Ji Yuanyuan nodded. “It’s fine as long as you think have thought about it. It doesn’t matter whether you have a child or not. Although I’ve given birth to a child, I’ve never expected the child to be filial to me in the future.”

Wu Qiuyun was about to say something when her eyes lit up, and she stood up.

Ji Yuanyuan and Cao Xiaorui quickly stood up and looked back.

A muscular man with a square face was walking over with a smile.

“I happened to be nearby.”

“Teacher, isn’t this the police officer who was in charge of Senior Brother Duan’s case?” Ji Yuanyuan turned around and looked at Wu Qiuyun in surprise. “Officer Liao?”

She said with some uncertainty.

The square-faced man looked at Wu Qiuyun with some admiration. “You’re right. Your two students are especially smart.”

With that, he was already in front of her.

“Hello, my surname is Liao, I’m called Liao Zhizhong.” He extended his hand to Ji Yuanyuan.

“Hello, Mr. Liao.” Ji Yuanyuan quickly reached out and shook his hand.

After shaking hands with Ji Yuanyuan and Cao Xiaorui, Liao Zhizhong sat down beside Wu Qiuyun.

Liao Zhizhong looked serious, but he was actually quite talkative.

At the dining table, the four of them ate happily.

After the meal, Ji Yuanyuan tactfully pulled Cao Xiaorui and left first.

On the way back, Cao Xiaorui said enviously, “Your memory is really good. You still remember what happened three years ago so clearly.”

Hearing this, the smile on Ji Yuanyuan’s face slowly disappeared.

After a moment, she sighed. “I’m afraid I won’t forget what happened back then.”

Cao Xiaorui naturally also knew that Ji Yuanyuan was talking about Duan Wenguang’s matter.

She stopped smiling and sighed.

When they returned to the hospital, it was almost time to go to work.

When she got home from work, Tangtang moved a small stool and waited for her at the door.

Qin Mucheng stood behind her and looked at her from a distance.

“It’s such a cold day. Why did you let her stay outside?” Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly got out of the car.

She took two steps forward and carried Tangtang.

The child’s hands were cold. She did not know how long she had been frozen outside.

“Mom, our teacher taught us another poem today. Let me recite it for you, okay?”

So that was why she was waiting at the door.

Ji Yuanyuan knew that Tangtang was a child with a strong desire to show off.

“Carry her into the house first. I’ll drive the car in,” Qin Mucheng said softly.

Ji Yuanyuan nodded. “The keys are in the passenger seat. You can look for them.”

Then, she carried Tangtang into the house.

As she walked, she discussed with Tangtang. “In the future, no matter how much you want to see Mommy, you can’t wait outside anymore, okay? It’s so cold outside. When your hands are cold, Mommy’s heart aches.”

Initially, Ji Yuanyuan’s hands were holding Tangtang’s hands.

After Ji Yuanyuan said that, Tangtang struggled and took her hand out of Ji Yuanyuan’s.

“My hand is cold. Mommy can hold my hand when it’s warm,” she said in a childish voice.

She was afraid that her cold hand would make Ji Yuanyuan’s hand cold.

Realizing this, Ji Yuanyuan felt a warm feeling in her heart.

“Be good. In the future, wait for Mommy in the house with Grandma. Mommy will look for you as soon as I come back.”

“Alright.” Tangtang thought about it and nodded.

After entering the house, Cheng Shuqin came out of the kitchen.

“My goodness, it’s cold outside, isn’t it?” Her heart ached as she took Tangtang from Ji Yuanyuan’s hands.

Tangtang, however, clung to Ji Yuanyuan’s neck with all her might and refused to let go.

“Be good. Grandma will carry you for a while. Mommy needs to wash her hands and eat.” Cheng Shuqin coaxed.

Only then did Tangtang let go.

Ji Yuanyuan washed her hands and sat down beside Tangtang.

“Mommy, do you want to hear me recite the poem?” Tangtang tugged at her clothes.

“Yes, I really want to hear it,” Ji Yuanyuan said hurriedly.

Tangtang blinked her eyes and shook her head as she began to recite, “The bright moon in front of the bed, I suspect it’s the frost on the ground…”

After she finished reciting, Ji Yuanyuan gave her face and applauded. “Wow, Tangtang is too awesome.”

The little girl raised her head proudly after being praised.

After dinner, Tangtang clung to Ji Yuanyuan for a while and then went to Qin Junshan to fold some origami.

Ji Yuanyuan was free. She thought of what happened during the day and took out her phone hesitantly.

He found Ji Zixuan’s number and hesitated on whether to call him.

Just as Ji Yuanyuan was hesitating, Qin Mucheng sat down beside her. “What’s wrong? Do you need something from Big Brother?”

Ji Yuanyuan thought for a moment and whispered into Qin Mucheng’s ear. “I met Yang Jingyi’s ex-boyfriend at the hospital today. He asked me if I knew Xi Xin’an. He said that he saw someone called Xi Xin’an sending a message to Yang Jingyi.”

Qin Mucheng looked a little surprised.

“I’m thinking if I should give my brother a call. He and Xi Xin’an…”

Before Ji Yuanyuan could finish speaking, Tangtang ran over and lay on her knees. “Dad, Mom, what are you whispering about?”

Tangtang’s hand happened to touch Ji Yuanyuan’s phone screen, and she made the call.

By the time Ji Yuanyuan realized it, the call was already connected..
