After listening to Yun Zhi's explanation, Zhou Niantang finally confirmed that this boy was indeed different from ordinary people.

But Yunzhi was talking about illness, so it’s not congenital?

Another scene flashed through Zhou Niantang's mind. It was the last time he met Pei Shi in the hospital. At that time, he was also accompanied by a boy who spoke a little strangely.

At that time she only saw the boy's profile, but now after comparing them carefully, they seem to be a bit similar.

I had doubts in my mind, but I couldn't ask directly because that would be too rude.

"It's okay." She replied with a smile, then remembered that today was not Saturday or Sunday, so she asked Yun Zhi: "Don't you have to go to work today?"

Yun Zhi glanced at Xiao Qi who was still standing next to her holding some potato chips, and said with embarrassment, "I quit."

"Quitted?" Zhou Niantang was a little surprised: "Didn't you say that job was very important to you?"

"I have no choice. My brother can't leave me. I have to quit my job first. If he gets better, I'll find another job."

Yun Zhi has always been good at hiding her emotions. In her opinion, everyone has their own things to do, and there is no need for one's own suffering to become a topic of conversation for others in their free time.

But today, when she met Zhou Niantang, this sunny-looking girl who had helped her before, she was rarely willing to chat with her for a few more words.

She said regretfully, "That job is actually not bad, the salary is quite good, but it's a bit far from home, and I can't take care of my brother."

"Is that so?" Zhou Niantang heard the helplessness in her tone, and looked at Yun Zhi's empty hands, plus she had just said not to let her brother take the potato chips.

Zhou Niantang knew that the snacks of this brand were not cheap. Although she didn't know why this pair of siblings who seemed to be in financial difficulties came in, the wild energy of Yun Zhi made her, as a peer, have an urge to help her.

She turned around and said to the boy in a gentle voice: "Can you help me push this car down? I don't have the strength to push it."

Xiaoqi held the potato chips in his arms and looked at Zhou Niantang confusedly, as if thinking about what she meant.

Yun Zhi thought Zhou Niantang was simply interacting with Xiao Qi, so she walked over to Xiao Qi, took one of his hands and placed it on the handle of the cart, "You just bumped into your sister, you have to help her push the cart to make amends."

Xiao Qi listened to Yun Zhi the most. He nodded heavily and pushed the cart forward with one hand.

Yunzhi followed him, and Zhou Niantang walked beside Yunzhi, chatting with him idly.

Arriving at the checkout counter, after the cashier had scanned all the items in the cart, Zhou Niantang took the two bags of potato chips from Xiaoqi's hand and scanned them as well. Before Yun Zhi could stop him, he quickly took out his phone and paid the bill.

When Yun Zhi heard the number on the cash register showed over a thousand, she was shocked. Such a small amount of snacks cost over a thousand.

Originally, she was taking Xiaoqi out for a walk, and when they passed by this snack shop, she didn't know the brand and thought it was just an ordinary snack shop, so she brought Xiaoqi in.

Later, Xiaoqi brought two bags of potato chips. She looked at the price and found that one bag was much more expensive than outside. They couldn't afford it at all, so they didn't want to let Xiaoqi take it.

"How much is this? I'll transfer it to you." Yun Zhi hurriedly took out her cell phone to return the money for the potato chips to Zhou Niantang.

Zhou Niantang reached out and took the two large bags that the cashier had prepared, and handed one to Yun Zhi: "Take it first, there are people queuing behind you."

Yun Zhi glanced behind her and saw that there were indeed a few people queuing to pay, so she could only reach out to take the bag and pull Xiao Qi and Zhou Niantang out of the snack shop together.

When they reached the door, Zhou Niantang handed the bag of snacks in her hand to Xiaoqi: "Sister will treat you to some."

When Xiaoqi heard the word "food", he immediately took it over, happily took out a pack of biscuits and was about to open it.

"No." Yun Zhi held Xiao Qi's hand and said to Zhou Niantang, "These are too expensive. We can't accept them."

Zhou Niantang blinked and didn't reach out to take the bag that Yun Zhi handed over: "You guys helped me push the cart just now."

"That's not possible either." Yun Zhi looked a little unhappy. She didn't like being given charity, especially since she and Zhou Niantang had only met twice.

Zhou Niantang pushed the bag in Yun Zhi's hand back: "This is a reward for my brother. He was the one who pushed the cart just now."

Xiao Qi was dissatisfied with Yun Zhi's action of holding him down to open the snacks. He didn't know why his sister always stopped him from taking things from the beautiful sister in front of him. He only knew that he really wanted to eat them.

Yun Zhi felt Xiao Qi's breathing becoming increasingly heavy, and guessed that he might become angry again, so she quickly let go of his hand.

Xiao Qi was freed, quickly opened the package and started eating the biscuits in his hand.

"You don't have to think too much. I just think we are destined to be together. City A is so big, and we actually met twice."

Looking at the smiling girl in front of her, Yun Zhi wondered what kind of family could raise such a simple and innocent girl.

Giving them such expensive snacks just because they had met twice.

Seeing that Yun Zhi was still hesitant and unwilling to accept it, Zhou Niantang thought for a moment and asked her: "Can you cook?"

Yun Zhi was obviously stunned by her sudden question, and nodded after a few seconds.

"It's a bit late today and I have something to go back for. I'll add your contact information." Zhou Niantang took the phone, opened the friend adding interface and handed it to Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi did not refuse. She took the phone and entered her own number. Then she immediately took out her own phone to accept the friend request.

"When you are free, please treat me to a meal. I am not picky about food, but you have to cook it yourself."

Zhou Niantang picked up two bags filled with shoe boxes and waved to Yun Zhi and the others: "That's it for now. I have something else to do and I'll leave first. Remember to treat me to a meal."

After saying that, she left, leaving Yun Zhi and Xiao Qi standing there passively accepting her kindness.

When Zhou Niantang got into his car, he received a message from Yun Zhi.

"If you are free tomorrow at noon, come to my house for dinner."

Zhou Niantang immediately replied that she was free, and the two of them made an appointment to go to Yun Zhi's house for dinner the next day.

When he returned home, Zhou Niantang saw Zhou Yunqi's car parked outside the yard. He was so scared that he quickly hid the bag in his hand behind a camellia.

After she entered the room, she did not find Zhou Yunqi on the first floor. When she went upstairs, she saw that the door of the study was closed. She knew that Zhou Yunqi, the workaholic, was probably still working.

She didn't bother him and went back to her room to take a shower. The weather was too hot and she felt sticky whenever she came back from going out.

When she came out of the shower, she heard the sound of a car starting and driving away outside the balcony.

She walked to the balcony, and sure enough, Zhou Yunqi's car was no longer outside the yard.

It was almost dark when Zhou Niantang took out the things from behind the camellia, then found Sun Bo, took him to a deserted place, and handed the things to him.

Sun Bo looked at the contents of the two bags, which were all shoes, and asked Zhou Niantang, "Are these things that others don't want?"
