After a pause, he said something with a hint of meaning, "There are so many valuable things in this world. As long as you work hard and never give up, one day you will get what you want most."

Tian Xiaofeng suddenly felt full of motivation. He patted his chest and said to Lin Ziqiu, "Sister! When I make money in the future, I will buy you a car and take you for a ride every day!"

Lin Ziqiu curled the corners of his lips and said, "Okay, then you are not allowed to be lazy in the future. You must work hard to make money."

Song Hui's words can only comfort a boy like Xiaofeng who has never seen any storms.

Cars aren't cheap these days.

Even if you have money, you can't buy it. Most of the cars on the market are provided for use by various units.

There are almost no private cars.

If someone like Tian Xiaofeng continues to work as a waiter in a state-owned restaurant, he will never be able to buy a car in his life.

But Song Hui's casual remark, "It's not expensive at all," was enough to kill many ordinary people in seconds.

"I was planning to pick you up later, but I didn't expect you to get up so early. Have you had breakfast yet?"

Song Hui tried hard to get along well with Lin Ziqiu. Knowing that she cared about Tian Xiaofeng, he deliberately asked Tian Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, what do you want to eat? I'll take you there."

Tian Xiaofeng first glanced at Lin Ziqiu, and seeing that she had no expression, he replied, "No need, Brother Song. I just ate some mung bean cake and I'm not hungry anymore."

"What about Xiaoqiu?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Ziqiu again.

But Lin Ziqiu looked at the old woman in the car.

"Mr. Song, you don't have to be so polite. Apart from the normal negotiations regarding the birthday banquet, I hope our relationship is just one of employment. And please just call me by my name."

Lin Ziqiu frowned slightly, expressing his displeasure.

She was somewhat disgusted by Song Hui's inexplicable flattery and closeness.

Song Hui's Adam's apple slid up and down. When facing Lin Ziqiu, he always felt helpless.

If I do it too much, I’m afraid she’ll be annoyed.

If I do too little, I worry that she will become too unfamiliar with me.

At this time, the old woman in the car got out.

She took the initiative to stand next to Lin Ziqiu. Even though she was mentally prepared, Shen Wufan couldn't control her emotions and burst into tears when she saw Lin Ziqiu's face, which was 50% similar to her daughter's.

This time it was Lin Ziqiu's turn to feel a little helpless. "Please...please don't cry. I don't know you at all. What do you mean by this?"

Shen Wufan's eyes were red and his lips were trembling violently. He murmured Lin Ziqiu's name, but he could hardly speak because of excitement.

Tears as big as beans flowed out of her eyes and slid down her wrinkled cheeks. She raised her hand to touch Lin Ziqiu's face, but her hand couldn't stop shaking.

"Auntie..."

Song Hui's voice came, bringing Shen Wufan back to her senses, and she hurriedly wiped away her tears.

"I'm sorry... little girl, when I saw you, I suddenly thought of my deceased daughter and lost control of my emotions. I'm really sorry."

Shen Wufan didn't dare to tell the truth, fearing that the incident was too sudden and would scare Lin Ziqiu, and she wouldn't be able to accept it.

But her actions just now have made Lin Ziqiu's guess more clearly verified.

Song Hui quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "It's fate that we met. We're also going to the Shen family, so why don't you take my car and talk about the birthday party."

Tian Xiaofeng was naturally happy about it. He had been craving for rides since he took one for the first time yesterday, and he was eager for another chance to ride today.

Lin Ziqiu lowered her eyes and saw Shen Wufan's face full of anticipation. She felt a little reluctant and said, "Okay."

Seeing that she was willing, Song Hui and Shen Wufan were both delighted, "Then get in the car quickly."

"Boss...Song!" Tian Xiaofeng realized that his sister seemed to be deliberately keeping a distance from Song Hui, so he immediately changed his tone. "Can I sit in the front passenger seat?"

"Of course!" Song Hui looked gentle and very gentlemanly as he opened the back door for Lin Ziqiu.

Lin Ziqiu didn't hold back and leaned over to sit in.

Shen Wufan sat with her in the back and could faintly smell the pleasant fragrance of the girl's hair. She scratched her hands nervously, not knowing how to get close to her.

"Miss Xiaoqiu, how old are you this year?"

Lin Ziqiu was slightly startled, "I'm twenty."

She almost blurted out her age in her previous life, but luckily she reacted quickly.

Shen Wufan asked again: "Are you married?"

"Done."

Lin Ziqiu was puzzled by the question. Song Hui obviously had other intentions towards her. In addition, judging from the reaction of the old woman in front of her, it was obvious that she should know some basic information about her.

But she still asked, obviously as if she wanted to chat with her.

"Then... is your lover good to you?"

"That's fine. He was worried about me coming to Su City this time, so he booked the guesthouse for me." Lin Ziqiu calmly revealed that she didn't want to stay anywhere else.

Shen Wufan understood, "Then he is indeed very good to you."

She paused and tentatively asked, "Your mother must be very reluctant to let you get married!"

When mentioning her deceased mother, Lin Ziqiu's eyes dimmed a little. She turned her head to look out the car window, as if she was lost in the memories of her mother, with a hint of red at the corners of her eyes.

"She died very young."

She has not yet revealed the truth about her mother's death to Lin Dahai.

After all, it has been so many years, and trying to find evidence is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But no matter what, she will not give up!

Anyone who has hurt her mother will pay the price sooner or later!

As her words fell, Shen Wufan's heart ached. She took a deep breath, not wanting to reveal any flaws in front of Lin Ziqiu, and tried hard to hide all her emotions.

"Sorry... for bringing up your sad story."

Lin Ziqiu shook his head. "It's okay. I made it through."

Although some things were not said out loud, Lin Ziqiu almost guessed it.

The old woman in front of me is most likely my grandmother.

My mother was adopted by Grandpa Li when she was very young, so Song Hui brought her to Suzhou under the pretext of a birthday party.

There is no need for a paternity test; her face, which bears 50% resemblance to her mother, is enough to prove everything.

However, none of them pointed it out, so Lin Ziqiu had no choice but to play dumb.

It seems that Aunt Shen clearly doesn't want to live in the Shen family, but she has no choice but to obey her brother's arrangements.

Lin Ziqiu just wants to hold her destiny in her own hands, and she is unwilling to recognize either the Shen family or the Song family.

It doesn't matter whether you come from a scholarly family or a wealthy family.

The important thing is that she wants to be her own wealthy family!

Shen Wufan felt sorry for her, but didn't know how to get close to her, because Lin Ziqiu always gave people the feeling that she looked very approachable, but in fact, no matter what you said, she was indifferent and distant.
